Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - John Benumeane, a budding solar engineer who's just moved to Southern California, learns the hard way how cruel and unrelenting Mother Nature can be. It's the winter of 2004; an El Niño is back with a vengeance. A horrific weather-related accident-a car collision with a two-hundred-year-old eucalyptus tree-lands John in the hospital, where he'll spend the next two years in a coma, locked in a struggle between life and death. He awakens in a different world than the one he left. Although he suffers no physical impairment from the terrible accident, he finds he has a supernatural power that slowly takes control of his life. His own impetuous behavior is rivaled only by that of his wife-who in her own bid to survive the lonely years without him, has reinvented herself in ways that defy description. The challenge for the two young lovers is to find common ground that will lead them back to the life they once knew. But that ground is elusive and unstable, prompting John's wife to turn to John's old college friend for help-and when she does, the plot thickens. By then a drought has gripped the Lower Forty-Eight and the real estate market is hyperventilating from reckless malfeasance, with John's wife in the center of it all. The people she works for want to own John and the very special gift he's come to possess, but she has other ideas. Her story-within-a-story has twists and turns that will keep you guessing till the very end.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Hal Sweeny is streetwise as he is educated and has a passion for taking risks. His biggest risk is walking away from the only life he'd ever known and marrying out of his social class. But when he hires on with Hkg Securities the prestigious New York Investment Banking firm owned by his father-in-law with whom he has an irreversible strained relationship with, he raises the stakes one more notch. One morning, three years into his new fangled life, he finds himself demonized by the same cast of characters who make a business out of destroying other people's wealth. Embroiled in a world of trickery and deceit, overflowing with consummate liars and at odds with his own moral conscience, Hal must reach deep within himself to overcome his abiding sense of guilt, and outwit a den of thieves where the stakes are higher than he ever bargained for. It's the fall of 2001 and a bear market is raging out of control. Beckman Corporation, at the direction of its Investment advisor Hkg Securities is running a Street gamble, which it thinks it can win. But Hal Sweeny uncovers their game and must choose between family and career or standing up to the pervasive corruption on Wall Street, gone unchecked with relative impunity for many years. Together, with his assistant Mary, they unweave a web of corporate malfeasance, spanning the far reaches of East Asia and the Caribbean and ending up on the gaming tables of Las Vegas. Besides telling a capricious story of how stock holder equity is lured away in pursuit of internet gaming riches the Street Gamble does a masterful job drawing sleek comparisons between the risks investors face on Wall Street, everyday and those taken by gamblers, pressing their luck at the brick and mortar casinos around the world. It also takes a well deserved critical look at some of Wall Street's despicable behavior that preceded the last bear market and the fraudulent wealth it helped create.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Dimensional scaling offers a new approach to quantum dynamical correlations. This is the first book dealing with dimensional scaling methods in the quantum theory of atoms and molecules. Appropriately, it is a multiauthor production, derived chiefly from papers presented at a workshop held in June 1991 at the Ørsted Institute in Copenhagen. Although focused on dimensional scaling, the volume includes contributions on other unorthodox methods for treating nonseparable dynamical problems and electronic correlation. In shaping the book, the editors serve three needs: an introductory tutorial for this still fledgling field; a guide to the literature; and an inventory of current research results and prospects. Part I treats basic aspects of dimensional scaling. Addressed to readers entirely unfamiliar with the subject, it provides both a qualitative overview, and a tour of elementary quantum mechanics. Part II surveys the research frontier. The eight chapters exemplify current techniques and outline results. Part III presents other methods, including nonseparable dynamics, and electron correlation in pseudomolecular excited states of atoms. Although procrustean conformity was not imposed, unifying and complementary themes are emphasized throughout the book.…
