After getting into trouble at his elite alpha school, Haruto is
transferred. His new classroom is a frenzy of excitement over this
new student, but Miyabi, the student council president, is the only
one who treats him with derision. They have opposite personalities
and life circumstances, but as the two of them clash they also grow
attracted to one another. And Miyabi finds himself powerless
against Haruto's alpha pheromones...
Saki's Cats rounds up the tales about cats, big and small, by the
undisputed master of the short story. 'Tobermory', one of Saki's
most famous pieces, demonstrates the danger that would ensue from
granting cats the power of speech - animals have long lurked
unseen, eavesdropping, in the background. The tom in 'The
Philanthropist and the Happy Cat' is the only one to enjoy his
meal, as is the leopard in 'The Guests'. In 'The Penance' and 'Mrs
Packletide's Tiger', hunters who put cats in their sights are
humiliated and blackmailed. 'The Achievement of the Cat' considers
how cats have come to be served by the human race. In addition to
the short stories about cats, Saki's Cats also collects Saki's
juvenile letters to his sister Ethel about the tiger cub he adopted
while living in Burma. The feisty felines of these tales are the
only clear winners, and, with a characteristic smirk and dash of
his pen, it is Edwardian Society that Saki sends slinking off, tail
between its legs.
While we may have always assumed that insects employ auditory
communication, our understanding of it has been impeded by various
technical challenges. In comparison to the study of an insect's
visual and olfactory expression, research in the area of acoustic
communication has lagged behind. Filling this void, Insect Sounds
and Communication is the first multi-author volume to present a
comprehensive portrait on this elusive subject. The text includes
32 chapters written by top experts from all corners of the globe.
Divided into two major sections, this groundbreaking text starts
with a general introduction to insect sounds and communication that
leads into a discussion of the technical aspects of recording and
analyzing sounds. It then considers the functioning of the sense
organs and sensory systems involved in acoustic behavior, and goes
on to investigate the impact that variables such as body size and
temperature have on insect sounds and vibrations. Several chapters
are devoted to various evolutionary and ecological aspects of
insect communication, and include rare information on
seldom-studied groups, including Neuropterida and Plecoptera. The
second section of the book includes chapters on communication and
song repertoires of a wide diversity of insects, including
Heteroptera, Auchenorrhyncha, Psylloidea, Diptera, Coleoptera, and
Hymenoptera . Insect Sounds and Communication is packaged with a
DVD, which holds sound and video recordings of many of the insects
discussed throughout the text, as well as many full color
illustrations not included in the printed text. The DVD also
features an unabridged discussion in French of the contribution of
the famous French cicadologist, MichelBoulard.

This authoritative work presents detailed coverage of modern
modeling and analysis techniques used in the design of electric
power transmission systems, delineating procedures for optimizing
design and building highly reliable systems. Providing the
theoretical background necessary for understanding problems related
to grounding systems, Power System Grounding and Transients covers
modeling of transmission systems from an electromagnetic fields
viewpoint, addresses techniques that result in circuit models of
transmission systems, studies the utilization of transmission
system models to power systems fault analysis, and explores power
grounding system design using models and analysis methods.

The undisputed master of the short story, Saki's name is synonymous
with brilliant writing that satirises Edwardian Society, and his
plays were no exception. In his only full-length play, 'The Watched
Pot', Trevor Bavvel, sole heir to a country estate, is in want of a
wife, but must operate under the strict attention of his miserly
mother Hortensia. Although wildly neglected today, Saki's plays met
with widespread acclaim in his day, and he was even compared
favourably with the great Oscar Wilde. This complete edition of
Saki's plays - the first complete edition ever published -
demonstrates the great writer's prowess as a playwright, and
sparkles with the same wit as the short stories that have enchanted
generations of readers.
