This book gives a unifying framework for estimating the abundance of open populations: populations subject to births, deaths and movement, given imperfect measurements or samples of the populations. The focus is primarily on populations of vertebrates for which dynamics are typically modelled within the framework of an annual cycle, and for which stochastic variability in the demographic processes is usually modest. Discrete-time models are developed in which animals can be assigned to discrete states such as age class, gender, maturity, population (within a metapopulation), or species...

The Great War with the Erest won, Commander Jabal Shann of the Azurean Sky Navy is ready to test a revolutionary new technology that would make it possible for a spacecraft to leap thousands of lightyears instantaneously. Unbeknownst to Jabal, he is dying of cancer and only has a few months to live. SD-an ancient, mythic being of immense power, called a Deverow-declares Jabal a "Dead End," or a being without a future and, therefore, free to be used by the capricious Deverow for their own convoluted purposes. Although no one on his home planet believes his radical idea is possible, Jabal is...

With every form of control in our lives comes a great responsibility that we are not always ready to accept. Just when we think that doing it "my way" is the perfect solution, it can backfire into a terrible consequence of regret. I am now realizing that age, wisdom, and humility can sometimes be the only answer to these situations and that trust plays a huge part in the solution.
