Melting Down
Author: Harvey Stone
Publisher: Pacific Coast Creative Publishing: The Way Things Are Publications
ISBN: 0982141971
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
Melting Down by environmental consultant Harvey Stone is an environmental thriller based upon 1) well-researched scientific data and 2) real-world, geo-political scenarios. The novel tracks an international terrorist plot to exploit the changing climate in order to fulfill Russia's historical destiny: world domination. It includes political intrigue, suspense, and action that span the globe from Hawaii to the Arctic and from Washington to Moscow. Within the fictional plot, Melting Down embeds key aspects of the science behind the changing climate, as well as its observed and predicted impacts. It also explores a systems-oriented approach for simultaneously solving many of today's economic, social, and environmental problems. Briefly, Melting Down's plot takes place in the final weeks of a too-close-to-call US Presidential election. President Charley Breen must overcome overwhelming personal tragedy and political pressure in order to stop the terrorist plot. Admiral Boris Sukirov and his high-ranking co-conspirators view the disappearing Arctic sea ice as Russia's final opportunity to control the world. Arming mercenaries with suitcase nuclear devices, they hold the world's glaciers hostage while exploiting the real-world scenarios that readers hear about in today's media. Tex Cassidy is the President's life-long friend, a Pulitzer-nominated investigative reporter, and a master at uncovering the connections between seemingly unrelated actions. He teams up with Zavia Jansen, a world-class designer of storm-surge barriers, in a global manhunt that must uncover and derail "Operation Noah."As they crisscross the globe to achieve their goals, Melting Down's characters represent many scientific, political and moral viewpoints. These viewpoints range from energy stakeholders to scientists calling for immediate action to political climate-deniers. The viewpoints also address questions such as "who benefits from the changing climate?" and "is there a way to mitigate the worst aspects of the changing climate?"

Book Description
I thought I was straight until I saw him. Now my whole life has been turned upside down. My life was perfect until him. It’s been months since I saw her brother Jake under the full moon, and I still can’t get him out of my head. He haunts my thoughts and dreams alike with his stunning perfection. That’s why I had to break up with his sister. I thought if I threw myself into my work the thoughts would go away. But now this hunky blue-eyed alpha is back, claiming I’m his mate, and I find myself unable to disobey his every order. But he’s off limits, and I have other things to focus on. There’s no way I can admit that I have feelings for him, though. Especially when my ex-girlfriend comes running back, claiming that I’m her mate too. Between that, Kael’s wedding to plan, remodeling the coffee shop, becoming the pack beta, and a thousand other things, I can feel myself cracking under the pressure. It was all supposed to be a secret until I was ready. But then Jake announces to the entire pack that he’s my mate and all hell breaks loose. TROPES: standalone, gay for you/bi awakening, alpha wolf, light D/s themes, forbidden love, forced proximity, found family, strict roles, and HEA.

Rational Investing with Ratios
Author: Yannick Coulon
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030342654
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Explaining the underlying logic behind financial ratios, this book adds to the discussion on the importance and implementation of ratios and illustrates the essential role that they play in company evaluations and investment screening. The author explores how ratios establish a proportional relationship between accounting and market data, and when well-integrated into a global company vision, can become powerful indicators capable of outlining relevant information and identifying warning signs. Going beyond merely listing possible ratios and looking further into their implementation, each ratio family is demonstrated with numerous graphs and practical case studies involving companies such as Amazon, Walmart and Alibaba. With a focus on behavioral finance and enterprise value, this innovative Palgrave Pivot will be of interest to investors, bankers and entrepreneurs, as well as finance scholars and students.
