The year starts badly for Robin, losing his job for sending so many letters in work time, and for his wife Rita, who sprains her ankle (yet again). But Robin has a cunning plan - his marrying of the crossword and sudoku into his devilish 'crossoku', which might just make their fortune.

" Three da' Hard Way: It's Only Just Begun" is the first book of a trilogy in which Robin L. Cooper speaks about her personal experiences with teenage dating abuse and violence. She shares detailed accounts of her fears and frustrations which began at the age of fifteen while three months pregnant with her first child. Although this storyline is capable of standing independently it is followed by, "Three da' Hard Way: Caught in the Middle" and the final book in the trilogy entitled, "Three da' Hard Way: A Way of Escape." In these books, Ms. Cooper provides illuminating insight into the...

The papers in this collection present a view of language as an evolving system within which flexibility is systemic and subject to progressive change, driven by pressures of every-day coordinative action as in conversational dialogue. As these papers demonstrate, these pressures provide a force for variation, hence for adaptation, and change. Topics covered include formal and game-theoretical models of evolution, diachronic studies of change (semantic, syntactic, lexical) and the role of dialogue factors in promoting such change, psycholinguistic experimental methods probing the nature of...

The hilariously surreal correspondence of Robin Cooper, frustrated children's author,fairy-spotter and fancy-spoon collector, in the bestselling tradition of the Henry Root letters - but with an entirely fresh perspective.

Try is a natural. She's amazing at whatever she does the first time she tries it--always. But one day Try finds something that she is not good at at all. Will Try quit? Or will she do what it takes to get better?

"Steak"osaurus was born a vegetarian. Instead of eating tasteless, boring veggies (YUCK ), Steak would give anything to once, just once, sink his teeth into a big, juicy, yummy piece of meat All day, every day, Steak is tempted to eat what he knows his body absolutely cannot have. It drives him CRAZY Will it push Steak to take a chance and give in to his mouth-watering carvings? Oops I meant cravings.

"It was the day before Christmas when "Christmas"saurus let out, "No, no, no "

It was all he could shout."

"Christmas"saurus is typically a joyous, merry elf,

But lately he hasn't been quite himself.

Is this the end of "Christmas"saurus as we know him?

Things are beginning to look pretty grim.

An encounter he has just might do the trick

Once "Christmas"saurus discovers he was handpicked.

Will "Christmas"saurus' gloominess lift?

Will he travel around the world...

The format of this book is unusual, especially for a book about linguistics. The book is meant primarily as a research monograph aimed at linguists who have some background in formal semantics, e. g. Montague Grammar. However, I have two other audiences in mind. Linguists who have little or no experience of formal semantics, but who have worked through a basic mathematics for linguists course (e. g. using Wall, 1972, or Partee, 1978), should, perhaps with the help of a sympathetic Montague gramma rian, be able to discover enough of how I have adapted some of the basic ideas in formal...

This edited book is a new and valuable resource for students, teachers, and practitioners, providing a detailed exploration of how qualitative research can be applied in the field of peace and conflict studies. This book explores considerations and components of designing, conducting, and reporting qualitative research in this field, and also provide exemplars of recent empirical research in peace and conflict studies that employed qualitative methods. Scholars and researchers in peace and conflict studies and peace education face unique challenges in teaching, designing, and conducting...

Deep Inelastic Scattering provides an up-to-date, self-contained account of deep inelastic scattering in high-energy physics, intended for graduate students and physicists new to the subject. It covers the classic results which led to the quark-parton model of hadrons and the establishment of quantum chromodynamics as the theory of the strong nuclear force, in addition to new vistas in the subject opened up by the electron-proton collider HERA. The extraction of parton momentum distribution functions, a key input for physics at hadron colliders such as the Tevatron at Fermi Lab and the Large...
