directed by Aleksander Bach. The International Contracts Agency
(ICA), a top secret organisation that works independently of the
U.S. government, has spent millions of dollars developing its own
army of genetically engineered assassins. Known only by the last
two digits of the barcode stamped on the back of his neck, Agent 47
is the best assassin in the business, boasting unrivalled
intelligence, speed and strength. When 47's latest target,
multi-national corporation owner John Smith (Zachary Quinto), gets
wind of his impending fate, Smith tries to penetrate the ICA to
find the secret to their success in creating invincible agents with
a plan of improving on their skills to develop his own army.

This exciting collection tours virtual reality in both its current
therapeutic forms and its potential to transform a wide range of
medical and mental health-related fields. Extensive findings track
the contributions of VR devices, systems, and methods to accurate
assessment, evidence-based and client-centered treatment methods,
and-as described in a stimulating discussion of virtual patient
technologies-innovative clinical training. Immersive digital
technologies are shown enhancing opportunities for patients to
react to situations, therapists to process patients' physiological
responses, and scientists to have greater control over test
conditions and access to results. Expert coverage details
leading-edge applications of VR across a broad spectrum of
psychological and neurocognitive conditions, including: Treating
anxiety disorders and PTSD. Treating developmental and learning
disorders, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, Assessment of and
rehabilitation from stroke and traumatic brain injuries. Assessment
and treatment of substance abuse. Assessment of deviant sexual
interests. Treating obsessive-compulsive and related disorders.
Augmenting learning skills for blind persons. Readable and
relevant, Virtual Reality for Psychological and Neurocognitive
Interventions is an essential idea book for neuropsychologists,
rehabilitation specialists (including physical, speech, vocational,
and occupational therapists), and neurologists. Researchers across
the behavioral and social sciences will find it a roadmap toward
new and emerging areas of study.

The book brings together research topics having a broad focus on
human and climate change impacts on the terrestrial ecosystems in
the tropics in general and more specifically from the most
significant and vulnerable Himalayan ecosystem. A total of 16
contributions included in the book cover a diverse range of global
change themes such as the impacts of changing temperature and
precipitation on soil ecosystems, forest degradation, extent and
impacts of invasive species, plant responses to pollution, climate
change impacts on biodiversity and tree phenology, environmental
changes associated with land use, importance of traditional
knowledge in climate change adaptation, timberline ecosystems, and
role of integrated landscape modeling for sustainable management of
natural resources. The book is a collective endeavour of an
international multidisciplinary group of scientists focused on
improving our understanding of the impacts of global change on the
structure and functioning of tropical ecosystems and addressing the
challenges of their future sustainable management. We hope that the
book will help researchers working in the areas of ecology and
environmental science to update their knowledge. We also expect
that natural resource managers and policy planners will find
explanations for some of their observations and hypotheses on
multiple global change factors impacting tropical ecosystems and
especially Himalayan ecosystems.
Doyle Hall cried tears of tenderness and compassion, but never
backed down from another man. He became a master motivator of
people because he bothered to listen. He walked away from wealth,
preferring instead to abide by his principles. He suffered the
untimely loss of most of his family yet maintained his faith in
God. He was a talented athlete who gained fame as a wrestler, a
professional boxer, a rodeo cowboy and a golfer, but never let his
fame dissuade his propensity for modesty. He never felt sorry for
himself, having learned the value of overcoming what would seem to
others as overwhelming odds. He simply would not quit.
