For decades, the United States has led the effort to stem the
spread of nuclear weapons, both among potential adversaries and
among its allies and partners. The current state of deterrence and
of the nonproliferation regime, however, is open to many doubts.
What happens if the nonproliferation regime should break down
altogether? What happens if extended deterrence should fail, and
allies no longer believe in the credibility of the U.S. nuclear
umbrella? What happens when the world has not 9 but 11, 15, 18, or
even more nuclear powers? This study explores how such a world
might function and what it would mean for our present conceptions
of deterrence, for the place of the United States in the
international order, and for international order itself.
In recent years, a number of molecular pathways and cellular
processes that are essential for normal vertebrate development have
been implicated in cancer initiation and progression. In this
volume, leaders in the field of cancer genetics and developmental
biology share recent insights into the importance of developmental
pathways for tumorigenesis. These discoveries provide important
avenues for innovative new approaches to treating some of the most
challenging developmental tumors.
Provides researchers an overview and synthesis of the latest
research findings and contemporary thought in the area
There are now a large number of molecular targeted therapies for
the treatment of cancer. Many of these therapies target pathways
that are essential for normal development. Therefore, this volume
provides an up to date and timely perspective on those pathways and
biological processes that hold the greatest promise for targeted
intervention.
Shoeboy in Pumpkin Land is a wonderfully surreal and Carrollesque
opera for young people, brought to you by the wacky partnership of
mad lyricist, Max Scratchmann, and round-the-bend composer, Michael
Dyer. Dealing with the joint themes of alienation and acceptance in
a darkly comic manner, this easy-to-stage one-act opera is the
perfect vehicle for schools and/or youth theatre companies seeking
to help children confront serious issues in a fun way. Jasper Jedd
is an ordinary boy except for one little thing - he is born with a
shoe for a head! And in this feast of devilish wit and roguish
musical creativity he sets off on a journey through the dark forest
of the fearsome Ginkle Snicks to find the mythical Pumpkin Land,
where he hopes he'll finally fit in...(Duration: 35 minutes) The
cover price of this libretto includes photocopying rights for one
production.

Caught up in the bright lights of the modern world, it is easy to
pretend that the old myths and legends have lost their hold over
our hearts and imaginations. Sometimes, when we least expect it,
the old archetypes return in terrifying new forms. Gods and
Monsters is an anthology that explores these themes with fifteen
new tales of the fantastic from some of the brightest new talent in
fantasy and horror.
Through our dreams, we explore our greatest fears and desires. Some
believe that we tap into a vast ocean of human consciousness and
experience. Other believe that we live with one foot in the
material world and one that is unknowable. Journey with us into the
Dreamlands. Featuring stories by: Caitlin R. Kiernan, Christa
Faust, Bev Vincent, Jane Gwaltney, James S. Dorr, Amy J. Benesch,
Gary McMahon, Gill Ainsworth, Larisa Walk, Louise Bohmer, Lisa
