Language Choice in a Nation under Transition charts the spread of
English into Cambodia and the French efforts to contest this spread
in favor of their own language through an analysis of the country's
recent history. This book proposes a synthesis of the
national-functional and international-critical perspectives. This
synthesis emerges from the Cambodian experience and thus adheres to
Joshua Fishman's admonition that theory reflect the sharp bite of
local detail and unique historical experience.

A scholarly edition of works by John Suckling. The edition presents
an authoritative text, together with an introduction, commentary
notes, and scholarly apparatus.
According to legend, and Montgomery s history of North Carolina, a
family mysteriously disappeared a hundred fifty years ago from a
farm just down the road from the Jones s Caleb, Josie, and Matt.
Caleb thinks it s awesome, Josie thinks it s a little spooky, and
Matt thinks it's not as important as getting a burger at Jackie s
grill. Caleb investigates and discovers something about the farm.
It wasn t easy, but he persuades Josie and Matt to accompany him to
the old site and check it out. Alas, they're not the only ones
there. The notorious Bruce Malroye, leader of the tri-tilde gang
and master mind of stupendous pranks, is already there. With a
little help from an eccentric old man in a car from the fifties,
they discover the incredible and are soon making their way across a
starry universe to a planet in a galaxy not yet discovered. Turns
out the fate of the cosmos may be in their hands.

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.This collection
reveals the history of English common law and Empire law in a
vastly changing world of British expansion. Dominating the legal
field is the Commentaries of the Law of England by Sir William
Blackstone, which first appeared in 1765. Reference works such as
almanacs and catalogues continue to educate us by revealing the
day-to-day workings of society.++++The below data was compiled from
