Reflecting the changing face of librarianship, the International
Bibliography cumulates over 10,000 bibliographies arranged in two
sections. Part I covers 9 general fields, such as international
bibliographies. Part II lists bibliographies of 52 special
disciplines and topics, including indexing and abstracting,
printing, automation, and computerization.
Focusing on one of the most fundamental areas of librarianship,
Gorman and a host of distinguished contributors examine the current
state of the field of technical services and offer their views on
its future. The book is divided into four sections: acquisitions,
bibliographic control, automation, and administration. Within these
sections individual chapters address specific aspects of the field
(e.g., serials acquisitions, descriptive cataloging, circulation
services). The text has been thoroughly updated, with some chapters
entirely rewritten and others replaced. Specialized chapters on
book gathering plans, preservation, and Slavic technical services
have been dropped from this edition and a chapter on global
standardization has been added. Offering a stimulating diversity of
voices and perspectives, this landmark work is a major contribution
to the area of technical services in the tradition of Tauber's
Technical Services in Libraries (Columbia University Press, 1954).

The hypostatic union of Christ, namely his being simultaneously
human and divine, is one of the founding doctrines of Christian
theology. In this book Michael Gorman presents the first
full-length treatment of Aquinas's metaphysics of the hypostatic
union. After setting out the historical and theological background,
he examines Aquinas's metaphysical presuppositions, explains the
basic elements of his account of the hypostatic union, and then
enters into detailed discussions of four areas where it is more
difficult to get a clear understanding of Aquinas's views, arguing
that in some cases we must be content with speculative
reconstructions that are true to the spirit of Aquinas's thought.
His study pays close attention to the Latin texts and their
chronology, and engages with a wide range of secondary literature.
It will be of great interest to theologians as well as to scholars
of metaphysics and medieval thought.

Wriggle your toes in the sand and feel the warm breeze on your face
when you check into the hotel that's full of dreams... 'The happy
plot is charming... very entertaining' Publisher's Weekly Three
years after ditching her career in New York City, Rosie never
thought she'd still be managing the quaint faded Victorian hotel in
her seaside hometown. What's worse, the hotel's new owners are
turning it into a copy of their Florida properties. Flamingos and
all. Cultures are clashing and the hotel's residents stand in the
way of the developers' plans. The hotel is both their home and
their family. That's going to make Rory's job difficult when he
arrives to enforce the changes. And Rosie isn't exactly on his
side, even though it's the chance to finally restart her career.
Rory might be charming, but he's still there to evict her friends.
How can she follow her dreams if it means ending everyone else's?

The author considers the various factors which helped to forge
German unity: the role of Bismarck; the growth of liberalism and
nationalism within Germany; the state of European politics prior to
1871; and the impact of a burgeoning German economy.
It is 1957 as a man and his sons cast their fishing lines into the
water. Twelve years ago while living in a dark post-war world, the
man never would have guessed that he would be in Florida with money
in his pockets, his two sons by his side, and a wife and daughter
waiting for them in a rented cottage. After their Uncle Matthew
spontaneously visits, their family history is slowly revealed as
four characters confront war and plague as well as their own
personal triumphs and tragedies. As their environment is fueled by
the great technological advances of the era, their optimism for the
future is eventually struck down by financial disaster, leaving
only a few survivors. The cultural and economic issues of their day
will be familiar: immigration, women's rights, economic policies,
and racism. These internal conflicts would over shadow a valuable
lesson. The world does not begin or end at the nation's shores.
