Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

It is March of 1997, and Roland Axam lost, out of his element,
and in a new world. As his plane begins its final approach to
Kimp'o International Airport in Seoul, South Korea, Roland realizes
his life is about to change forever-again.
Roland has already survived a devastating, life-altering tragedy
back home in Ottawa, Canada; he knows that what he needs most now
is a clean slate. As he arrives in Ch nju, South Korea, where he
plans to teach English and leave his past behind, Roland abandons
all that is familiar for the unknown. He immerses himself in a
vastly different culture, where communication is difficult and his
need to belong brings challenges. But despite the distractions of a
bustling city thousands of miles from everything he knows, Roland
is still haunted by anger, guilt, and demons that he attempts to
drown in alcohol.
In this compelling tale, one man travels across an ocean to
begin an unforgettable journey of self-discovery that eventually
leads him to realize love, forgiveness, healing, and another new
beginning.
Brown" "explores relationships between sound and theatre, focusing
on sound's interdependence and interaction with human performance
and drama. Suggesting different ways in which sound may be
interpreted to create meaning, it includes key writings on sound
design, as well as perspectives from beyond the discipline.
The book presents the never before published story of the 1873-74
whaling voyage of the F.H. Moore through the eyes of crew member
Sam Williams. The book also includes some lost notes of another
whaling voyage Williams took to the Azores. There are also excerpts
of three first person accounts of whaling published in the 1800's.
Together the four parts open the world of whaling to readers in a
realistic and unromantic way which illuminate the current worldwide
debate on whaling.
First published in 1999, this volume recognised how widespread
attention has been given to charting how the global rise in
investment flows has caused numerous changes in the operation of
economies - such as the globalisation of production and increasing
international economic interdependency. Less research has been made
on the role of government policy in promoting FDI. This book, based
on a report for the OECD Development Centre, examines the rising
competition between European governments to attract mobile
investment projects and its impact on the use of different policy
areas to influence FDI decisions.
