The police rely heavily on paid and unpaid informers: without them
clear-up rates would plummet, and many crimes would remain
undetected. Yet little is known about the informer system and how
it works, for example: who are these informers? how are they
recruited? how are they handled? who handles them? what sort of
information do they provide? Recent high profile cases have drawn
attention to the use of informers, there has been a growing debate
about the subject, and many feel that stricter controls are needed
- but how is this to be achieved without undermining the
effectiveness of the system? This is the first book of its kind on
informers in Britain, providing an invaluable source of information
and analysis from key authorities in the field.
Entertainers Roy and Dale Evans Rogers were thrilled when their
little daughter Robin was born. But their excitement turned to
concern when they were informed that Robin was born with Down's
Syndrome and advised to "put her away." The Rogers ignored such
talk and instead kept Robin, and she graced their home for two and
a half years. Though Robin's time on earth was short, she changed
her parents' lives and even made life better for other children
born with special needs in the years to come.
Angel Unaware is Robin's account of her life as she looks down
from heaven. As she speaks to God about the mission of love she
just completed on earth, the reader sees how she brought her
parents closer to God and encouraged them to help other children in
need.
This book, which changed the way America treated children with
special needs, is now available to a new generation. It is the
perfect gift for parents of special needs children, parents
grieving the death of a child, or anyone whose life has been
touched by a special child.
Over many decades the global development of professional accounting
education programmes has been undertaken by higher education
institutions, professional accounting bodies, and employers. These
institutions have sometimes co-operated and sometimes been in
conflict over the education and/or training of future accounting
professionals. These ongoing problems of linkage and closure
between academic accounting education and professional training
have new currency because of pressures from students and employers
to move accounting preparation onto a more efficient, economic and
practical basis. The Interface of Accounting Education and
Professional Training explores current elements of the interface
between the academic education and professional training of
accountants in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and the UK. It
argues for a reassessment of the considerations and requirements
for developing professional accounting programs which can make a
student: capable of being an accountant (the academy); ready to be
an accountant (the workplace); and professional in being an
accountant (the professional bodies). This book was originally
published as a special issue of Accounting Education: An
International Journal.

of the lethal impact of North American fundamentalist Christian
missionaries on aboriginal life throughout the world.
This volume presents advances that have been made over recent
decades in areas of research featuring Hardy's inequality and
related topics. The inequality and its extensions and refinements
are not only of intrinsic interest but are indispensable tools in
many areas of mathematics and mathematical physics. Hardy
inequalities on domains have a substantial role and this
necessitates a detailed investigation of significant geometric
properties of a domain and its boundary. Other topics covered in
this volume are Hardy- Sobolev-Maz'ya inequalities; inequalities of
Hardy-type involving magnetic fields; Hardy, Sobolev and
Cwikel-Lieb-Rosenbljum inequalities for Pauli operators; the
Rellich inequality. The Analysis and Geometry of Hardy's Inequality
provides an up-to-date account of research in areas of contemporary
interest and would be suitable for a graduate course in mathematics
or physics. A good basic knowledge of real and complex analysis is
a prerequisite.

In the mid 21st century, teleportation becomes an everyday reality,
the exclusive province of American citizens. But such luxury comes
with a hidden price, known only to a select few within the U.S.
government. Such knowledge can make the difference between life or
death on the American Continent when terrorists south of the border
threaten the United States with a stolen, lethal bio-agent. With
time running out, the fate of an entire nation depends on the
combined efforts of both the military and a reluctant group of
civilians. Their only hope is to recover a technology so unique, no
other country in the world has it. A technology so powerful, it can
control the future. And now the race for that secret is on]... a
secret locked in the mind of a dead man.
