Deep in the heart of one of Jakarta’s most deprived slums stands an impenetrable high-rise apartment block. To most it is 30 floors of Hell to be avoided at all costs but for many of the city's most dangerous killers and gangsters, including the area's most notorious crime lord, it is a fortress-like safe house protecting them from the law. Even for the bravest and most experienced police officers it is considered a no-go area.
In a desperate bid to flush these violent criminals and their leader from their haven once and for all, an elite SWAT team is tasked with infiltrating the building and raiding the apartments floor by floor, taking out anyone who stands in their way.
Cloaked under the cover of pre-dawn darkness, the SWAT members make their move and enter the block not realising that this is the easier part of the mission. Once inside, it soon becomes terrifyingly apparent that the real problem at hand is surviving long enough to be able to get out again.

This collection of classic and contemporary essays in philosophy of
language offers a concise introduction to the field for students in
graduate and upper-division undergraduate courses. It contains some
of the most important basic sources in philosophy of language,
including a number of classic essays by philosophers such as Frege,
Russell, Wittgenstein, Kripke, Grice, Davidson, Strawson, Austin,
and Putnam, as well as more recent contributions by scholars
including John McDowell, Stephen Neale, Ruth Millikan, Stephen
Schiffer, Paul Horwich, and Anthony Brueckner, among others, who
are on the leading edge of innovation in this increasingly
influential area of philosophy. The result is a lively mix of
readings, together with the editors' discussions of the material,
which provides a rigorous introduction to the subject.
With growing public pressure and increasingly stringent
environmental legislation, the waste industry is now being called
upon to develop more sustainable methods of dealing with refuse.
Coupled with moves to reduce reliance on landfill as a disposal
route, biological treatment will increasingly become adopted as a
standard requirement for the vast majority of putrescible wastes.
Biowaste and Biological Waste Treatment examines the present, and
likely future, state of biological waste treatment. The book falls
naturally into three parts. The first covers the nature of
biowaste, waste treatment in general and the regulatory framework
which governs it. The second looks at the technologies and
approaches available, while the final part examines the various
policy questions and local, social and economic factors which
affect the implementation of biowaste initiatives.

Truth and Meaning is a classic collection of original essays on fundamental questions in the philosophy of language. It was first published in 1976, and has remained essential reading in this area ever since; this is its first appearance in paperback. The contributors include leading figures in late twentieth-century philosophy, such as Donald Davidson, Saul Kripke, P. F. Strawson, and Michael Dummett. Most of the papers are not available elsewhere.
This volume contains thirteen papers, including two previously unpublished, by Gareth Evans, a brilliant philosopher who died in 1980 at the age of 34. The treatments of problems about language are here informed by a lively sense of interconnections with issues in metaphysics and the problem of mind, and some of the papers are primarly directed to problems in these fields. Anyone who is concerned with the central questions of philosophy will be interested in this collection.

The discussion in this book range over all the main kinds of
referring expressions, starting with the work of Frege and Russell
on singular reference. The work is guided by the view that an
understanding of how singular thoughts relate to objects is
essential for a proper treatment of the linguistic device by which
such thoughts are expressed. It will be of interest to psychologist
and philosophers of mind as well as to philosophers of language and
linguists.
