Development of new techniques and methods for analysis of controlled substances brings a different way of considering drug analysis which is articulated for the first time in this new text. In addition to a modern treatment of the widely known drugs (eg. Cannabis, heroin, cocaine, amphetamines, ring substituted amphetamines) and pharmaceuticals which are used as recreational drugs (eg. barbiturates, benzodiazepines), the book will consider prominent drug classes that have not yet received systematic treatment in a textbook (for example synthetic cannabinoids, piperazines, cathinones, fentanyls). Aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate taught programmes, the book includes methods for drug analysis and comparison using physical, biologically based, comparative and numerical techniques. It will also serve as a reference point for research students and practising forensic scientists. It introduces statistical methods for drug sample comparison and the appropriateness of some of the statistical techniques for drug analysis and examines their use. It also considers newly developed analytical methods and significant legislative changes. Aimed at academics delivering forensic science courses in particular, it could also be used by chemistry, biochemistry, criminalistics, criminology and law and policing students on MSc forensic science courses and postgraduate research candidates.

An unprecedented description of the critical energy situation throughout Asia, this book examines the energy resources, naval forces, and national strategies of the nations of that vast landmass, set against the priorities and resources of the United States. Energy security in Asia is crucial to the continued economic growth and hence the national security of the region's nations. Providing such security requires a combination of naval, political, and economic policies. Despite dramatic news coverage to the contrary, Cole's research reveals that the nations of the region-of which the United States must be counted-are in fact acting more together than apart in striving to ensure the security of scarce energy resources they all require. No issue in today's international environment is more important than energy security. Even the North Korean nuclear development program must be taken as a subset of this subject. As the United States, the United Kingdom, and other nations have done in past decades, the People's Republic of China is striving to establish proprietorship of energy resources throughout their lifecycle, from recovery from the ground to sale in the market place. This important book demonstrates the vacuity of that paradigm, illustrating the multilateral nature of energy security.

Keith Seaward, at age seventeen, is forced to make excruciating decisions after his parents are killed in a plane crash, leaving he and his six younger siblings orphans.

Intravitreal injections (injections into the eye) are a new form of treatment for various conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic eye disease and vascular eye problems. The use of these injections has become so widespread that most departments around the world (and particularly in the U.K) do not have enough doctors to meet the service provision demands of an ever increasing number of patients. Many departments have trialed training ophthalmic nurse practitioners as a solution and the number of such specifically trained nurses is set to rise exponentially in the future. This book is meant to be an easy to carry A5 handbook detailing all that an ophthalmic nurse practitioner needs to know about performing the procedure. It is hoped that the book will also be of benefit to trainee ophthalmologists learning the procedure.As this is an emerging area of expertise in ophthalmology, currently there exists no other books on the topic. The readers will benefit from having a single resource detailing all that they need to know about the procedure. This means that nurses will not have to cross reference multiple complicated ophthalmic textbooks. As an A5 handbook, it will be easy to carry and reference in clinics. It is deliberately meant to be concise (around 100 pages), thus concentrating only on the core knowledge required.

IBPA Benjamin Franklin Award™ gold winner, poetry category Sierra Leone’s devastating civil war barely caught the attention of Western media, but it raged on for over a decade, bringing misery to millions of people in West Africa from 1991 to 2002. The atrocities committed in this war and the accounts of its survivors were duly recorded by international organizations, but they run the risk of being consigned to dusty historical archives.    Derived from public testimonies at a UN-backed war crimes tribunal in Freetown, this remarkable poetry collection aims to breathe new life into the records of Sierra Leone’s civil war, delicately extracting heartbreaking human stories from the morass of legal jargon. By rendering selected trial transcripts in poetic form, Shanee Stepakoff finds a novel way to communicate not only the suffering of Sierra Leone’s people, but also their courage, dignity, and resilience. Her use of innovative literary techniques helps to ensure that the voices of survivors are not forgotten, but rather heard across the world.    This volume also includes an introduction that explores how the genre of “found poetry� can serve as a uniquely powerful means through which writers may bear witness to atrocity. This book’s unforgettable excavation and shaping of survivor testimonies opens new possibilities for speaking about the unspeakable.

Steven D Coles worked as a solicitor in the West Country for thirty-nine years where he undertook civil and criminal litigation in crown, magistrates and county courts throughout the region. Now You're In Trouble, Here Comes My Solicitor is an appreciation of the wonderful and varied eccentricities of human behaviour that the author experienced. In this memoir, the author tells of the times when he encountered a Landlord who tried to evict his sitting tenants by impersonating a werewolf in his tenant's garden in the dead of night; a compulsive rustler of piglets stealing from farmers within his own community; an amiable young petty thief committed, Robin Hood like, to the redistribution of his ill-gotten gains amongst those he considered most deserving. All of these characters and others are depicted in the book. Similar eccentricities were also to be found on the judicial and magisterial benches of the 1980's when every market town seemed to have its own court and the dispensers of justice often appeared more suited to the age of Dickens than to the late twentieth century. Now You're In Trouble, Here Comes My Solicitor is written with a light and humorous touch whilst at the same time ensuring legal accuracy and authenticity.

Dr. Cole writes to share about what it's like to grow-up with an abusive father and no one else knows about it. Connect and understand her journey as she shares, learns, connects with others, and finally accepts and grow to an independent adult. It's a world that finally knows what's it like to finally understand that God has a purpose and loves all of his children. Learning to love oneself, family, friends, with the guidance of God's love, faith, trust, and confidence is a major accomplishment for Dr. Cole. She feels and knows there are many like herself, now, past and future that she needs to share her personal experience to help others to cry out with faith, love, confidence, and trust in God that she will overcome the inequities of abuse to a Christian life.

In 1933, Alice Tisdale Hobart, wife of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey manager in Nanking, published Oil for the Lamps of China.1 Hobart had traveled widely in China and proved to be a very observant imperialist. Her fictional account of her experiences, not surprisingly, focused on the role played by Western businessmen, especially those engaged in importing and selling petroleum products. One thread that runs through her work is Chinese dependence on foreign sources of energy supplies, which remains the case today. This dependence on foreign- controlled sources means that Beijing's efforts to ensure the availability of energy resources adequate to fuel the nation's economic growth have important national security implications.
