illustrated. 1781 edition. Excerpt: ... the Commodore could proceed
. to England, without laying in a large quantity both of provisions
and naval stores for his use during the voyage. The procuring this
supply was attended with much perplexity; for there were people at
Canton who had undertaken to surniih him with biscuit, and whatever
else he wanted; and nis linguist, towards the middle of September,
had assured him from day to day, that all w DEGREESs ready, and
would be sent on board him immediately. But a fortnight being
elapsed, and nothing brought, the Commodore lent to Canton, to
enquire more particularly into the reasons of this difappointment:
and he had soon the vexation to be informed, that the whole was an
illusion; that no order had been procured from the viceroy, to
furnish him with his sea stores, as had been pretended; that there
was no biscuit baked, nor any one of the articles in readiness,
which had been promised him, nor did it appear that the contractors
had taken the least step to comply with their agreement. This was
most difagreeable news, and made it suspected, that the surnishing
the Centurion for her return to Great Britain might prove a more
troublesome matter than had been hitherto imagined, especially too,
as the month of September was nearly ended, without Mr Anson's
having received any message fronAhe viceroy of Canton. And here,
perhaps it might be expected, that a satisfactory account should be
given of the motives of the Chinese for this faithltss procedure.
However, as I have already, in a former chapter, made some kind of
conjectures about a similar event, I shall not repeat them again in
this place; but shall content myseif with observing, that, after
all, it may perhaps be impossible for an European, ' aorant of the
customs and manners of...

This book addresses the emerging field of genderqueer or non-binary
genders - that is, individuals who do not identify as male or
female. It considers theoretical, research, practice, and activist
perspectives; and outlines a basis for good practice when working
with non-binary individuals. The first section provides an overview
of historical, legal and academic aspects of this phenomenon. The
second section explores how psychotherapeutic, psychological and
psychiatric theory and practice are adapting to a non-binary model
of gender, and the third section considers the body related
aspects, from endocrinology to surgery. This work will appeal to a
wide readership, from practitioners working with non-binary
individuals - including psychologists, surgeons, social workers,
nurses, psychiatrists, endocrinologists, psychotherapists and
counselors, lawyers, and healthcare workers - to researchers
interested in the study of gender identities, to students and
gender activists.
A private citizen discovers compelling evidence that a decades-old
murder in Nashville was not committed by the man who went to prison
for the crime but was the result of a conspiracy involving elite
members of Nashville society. Nashville 1964. Eighteen-year-old
babysitter Paula Herring is murdered in her home while her
six-year-old brother apparently sleeps through the grisly event. A
few months later a judge's son is convicted of the crime. Decades
after the slaying, Michael Bishop, a private citizen,stumbles upon
a secret file related to the case and with the help of some of the
world's top forensic experts--including forensic psychologist
Richard Walter (aka "the living Sherlock Holmes")--he uncovers the
truth. What really happened is completely different from what the
public was led to believe. Now, for the very first time, Bishop
reveals the true story. In this true-crime page-turner, the author
lays out compelling evidence that a circle of powerful citizens
were key participants in the crime and the subsequent cover-up. The
ne'er-do-well judge's son, who was falsely accused and sent to
prison, proved to be the perfect setup man. The perpetrators used
his checkered history to conceal the real facts for over half a
century. Including interviews with the original defense attorney
and a murder confession elicited from a nursing-home resident, the
information presented here will change Nashville history forever.

Dublin Bus was formed back in February 1987 when services were
split out of Coras Iompair Eireann (CIE) and has, in time, become a
modern and forward-thinking bus operator. During July 2018, plans
were revealed for a complete overhaul of Dublin's bus services. The
changes planned by the National Transport Authority have led to a
renumbering of key routes and changes and improvements to
frequencies. As a result Dublin Bus has lost some of its depots and
routes to the Go-Ahead group, who have their own livery and created
some new routes. In a tour of this fascinating and colourful city,
Richard Walter illustrates the transformation of Dublin bus
services in the twenty-first century, with photographs taken before
and after the changes showing the variety of buses used. Also
included are some of the interesting open- and closed-top vehicles
that have provided tours ranging from sightseeing to afternoon teas
and ghostly goings on.
