Rutger Hauer stars in this action comedy as a homeless man who
takes vigilantism to a new scale. Arriving in a new city, our hero
soon realises that it is a hotbed of crime and corruption presided
over by gang bosses and bent cops who will do nothing to deliver
justice. Armed robberies, prostitution and paedophilia are rife,
and the only obvious way to tackle the perpetrators is to take to
the streets with a 20-guage pump-action shotgun.

A werewolf tale from the producers of Underworld, Blood & Chocolate tells the tale of Vivian, a young teenage girl who must choose between her love lor a young artist and loyalty to her werewolf lineage.
Others may have secrets, but none as extraordinary as Vivian. One of the last of her kind, she comes from a line of loup garoux, shape shifters able to transform into the form of both man and wolf at will.
When Vivian's affections for a visiting artist threaten to reveal her family's secret society, she must decide whether to prove her allegiance to their secret vows or follow her heart and betray them all.

Jerome is a calm man - at least, that's what he'd always believed.
But when his daughter's boyfriend dies in an accident, he is
overwhelmed by unexpected grief. As he struggles to make sense of
the loss and his own reaction to it, he finds himself assailed by
emotions and memories he has allowed to lie dormant: the residual
feelings for his ex-wife; a baffling new attraction to a stranger;
a precarious friendship with a retired policeman; and, above all,
unsettling questions about his own past and the family he never
knew. In returning to the forests of his childhood and the darkest
nights of the second world war, Jerome gradually, painfully begins
to piece together the truth of his own origins and the tragedy that
his adoptive parents tried to bury.
This thoroughly updated and revised second edition combines
practical and theoretical analyses to cover a wide array of cutting
edge issues in international environmental law (IEL). The Research
Handbook provides a comprehensive view of the complexity of IEL,
both as a field in its own right, and as part of the wider system
of international law. Expert contributors examine the key theories
and concepts of IEL governance and provide an in-depth analysis of
IEL principles, supplemented in this new edition by a consideration
of the significant actors involved in international environmental
law-making and governance. Chapters go on to discuss practical
issues, such as dispute settlement and compliance, and analyse
selected environmental protection regimes, as well as including a
brand new section covering IEL litigation in relation to human
rights and climate change. Providing a thorough examination of the
major topics in the field, this Handbook will be an indispensable
resource for scholars and students of international environmental
law. Practitioners and policymakers will also find it useful for
its coverage of developments in environmental litigation and the
actors involved.

Translated by Constance Garnett, with an Introduction and Notes by
Agnes Cardinal, Honorary Senior Lecturer in Comparative Literature
at the University of Kent. Prince Myshkin returns to Russia from an
asylum in Switzerland. As he becomes embroiled in the frantic
amatory and financial intrigues which centre around a cast of
brilliantly realised characters and which ultimately lead to
tragedy, he emerges as a unique combination of the Christian ideal
of perfection and Dostoevsky's own views, afflictions and manners.
His serene selflessness is contrasted with the worldly qualities of
every other character in the novel. Dostoevsky supplies a harsh
indictment of the Russian ruling class of his day who have created
a world which cannot accomodate the goodness of this idiot.
Word Guild 2012 Canadian Christian Writing Award Honorable Mention,
The Grace Irwin Prize (2013) 2012 Book of the Year Award, Foreword
Magazine The history of women interpreters of the Bible is a
neglected area of study. Marion Taylor presents a one-volume
reference tool that introduces readers to a wide array of women
interpreters of the Bible from the entire history of Christianity.
Her research has implications for understanding biblical
interpretation--especially the history of interpretation--and
influencing contemporary study of women and the Bible.
Contributions by 130 top scholars introduce foremothers of the
faith who address issues of interpretation that continue to be
relevant to faith communities today, such as women's roles in the
church and synagogue and the idea of religious feminism. Women's
interpretations also raise awareness about differences in the ways
women and men may read the Scriptures in light of differences in
their life experiences. This handbook will prove useful to
ministers as well as to students of the Bible, who will be
inspired, provoked, and challenged by the women introduced here.
The volume will also provide a foundation for further detailed
research and analysis. Interpreters include Elizabeth Rice
Achtemeier, Saint Birgitta of Sweden, Catherine Mumford Booth, Anne
Bradstreet, Catherine of Siena, Clare of Assisi, Egeria, Elizabeth
I, Hildegard, Julian of Norwich, Therese of Lisieux, Marcella,
Henrietta C. Mears, Florence Nightingale, Phoebe Palmer, Faltonia
Betitia Proba, Pandita Ramabai, Christina Georgina Rossetti,
Dorothy Leigh Sayers, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Harriet Beecher
Stowe, St. Teresa of Avila, Sojourner Truth, and Susanna Wesley.
