Online Science & Technology books The year 2006 was a year of paradox of promise
and tribulations for South Asia. Thus stock exchanges across the region
soared (except Karachi) and India’s booming economy demonstrated a
steady northward trajectory pulling with it other markets as Bangladesh
and Sri Lanka which had integrated under the SAFTA. In other spheres,
however, South Asian states were oscillating from crisis to crisis. Be
it Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh or India, security
continued to be one of the prime considerations for the people and
governments in all these states. Capturing the entire security flavour
of South Asia, this book is an attempt to place the national, regional
and global events in perspective. The aim is not to provide instant
history but to see beyond the media driven, hyphenated short-term view
of happenings in the Subcontinent and portend the path ahead. Trend
spotting especially of lurking dangers will hopefully provide the
necessary motivation for adorning a sage path of cooperation, compromise
and mutual assistance, for that is the way ahead for the multitudes in
South Asia and not reliving memories of the past, feels the author.

Online Romance books
Online Romance books Alexander Roman wants nothing to do with the controlling rulers of his
vampire breed, but as a new threat to the pureblood vampires emerges,
Alexander's ties to the past are forced upon him, and without warning,
he finds himself disoriented, terrified and near death at the door of a
stranger. Dr Sara Donohue is dedicated to removing the traumatic
memories of her patients - like those of the stranger at her front door.
But what he tells her of his past is too astonishing to be anything
more than the delusion of a madman. Then, as their worlds collide, Sara
and Alexander are bound as one becomes hunter and the other prey. And
Sara's only chance of survival is to surrender to the final - and most
unimaginable - desire of her life.
Online Religion & Spirituality books
Online Religion & Spirituality books Tina Beattie has written a stunning book on the theology of woman. Her
stated objective is to discern the place of the female body in the
Christian story of salvation and she has done so from the very heart of
Christian stylisations of the female--the figures of Mary and
Eve.Beattie has pursued her subject with the aid of French
psychoanalytic feminism--these writers are preoccupied, as is Catholic
theology, with questions of language and symbolism. But she deliberately
puts herself at odds with neo-orthodoxy and feminist liberal theology;
she believes that theologians like von Balthasar depart from the best
Patristic tradition of Marian theology with disastrous effect. Nor does
she offer any solace to the Marina Warners of this world in a book which
is strong in defence of classical Marian theology.She defends with
passion and theological insight not only the Virgin Birth, the
Immaculate Conception and the Assumption but also the perpetual
virginity of Mary.Virginal desire, according to Beattie, need not be
seen negatively but as an affirmation of the integrity of women's desire
before God, in a way not dependent on the phallus nor reducible to
geniality.

Online Professional & Technical books This title presents the evolution of the ad. The history of western
advertising is a long one, starting as early as the 1630s, when
frenchman Theophraste Renaudot placed the first advertising notes in La
Gazette de France, or in 1786, when William Tayler began to offer his
services as "Agent to the Country's Printers, Booksellers, etc.," but
the first time that the term "advertising agency" was used dates back to
1842, when Volney B. Palmer created his agency in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. Widely considered to represent the birth of the modern
advertising, this date marks the beginning of a creative industry that
has transformed many commercial works into cultural icons.Divided by
into sections by decades, this book explores the most legendary
campaigns and brands of advertising's modern history, with specific
anecdotes and comments on the importance on every campaign. You will
find the picture of the camel that originated the Camel package, the
first Coca Cola ad, and even how artworks by masters such as Picasso and
Magritte have been used in advertising.
