Crack, Cocaine, Methamphetamine, and Ice by Leslie E. Moser Pdf

The world is being shattered by the exploding demand for drugs. Methamphetamine was the major stimulant drug used until the 1980's. Then cocaine became the drug of choice. Both of these stimulants were ingested by swallowing, snorting & injection. Smoking these drugs, although possible, was not preferred until the mid 80's. In 1983 crack cocaine was introduced, quickly reached epidemic status & has not yet peaked. Smokable methamphetamine called crystal meth or ice has reached an epidemic stage in Hawaii & threatens mainland states. These smokable drugs are immensely addictive & dangerous. Crack is available everywhere as is methamphetamine. CRACK, COCAINE, METHAMPHETAMINE & ICE is written by a psychologist who has many years of experience with drug-driven offenders& with drug-abusing clients. The book presents disturbing realities to all readers via dramatic stories & informs both lay & professional readers. It employs careful research into supply, prevention, treatment & law enforcement relating to the war on drugs. In order to gain current knowledge about the possible "ice storm," the author has done careful field research in Hawaii & in California. This is a book every citizen should read! For every parent & treatment-related professional, it comprises a gold mine of information.

Scaling of Structural Strength by Z. P. Bažant Pdf

Questions of size effect and scaling on the integrity of structures have been around since at least the time of Leonardo da Vinci. Bazant (civil engineering and materials science, Northwestern U.) sketches the history of size effect studies before exploring size effect on fracture and crack mechanics in a number of materials. He explores applications of the known size effect law for the measurement of material fracture properties and the modeling of the size effect by the cohesive crack model, nonlocal finite element models, and discrete element models. Applications to quasibrittle materials, including concrete, fiber composites, sea ice, rocks, and ceramics are presented. The role of size effect in some famous structural catastrophes is then examined. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

Ice Nation by Jason Bray Pdf

When the young and impressionable sons and daughters of rural Australia were promised power and riches beyond their wildest dreams by an older sadistic boss, they become a highly manipulated and dangerous group of drug dealers. Intent on distributing their own brand of ice and justice into regional communities, they were prepared to attack anyone or anything that stood in their way. As the syndicate spirals out of control, their wildest dreams become their worst nightmares. Victorian detectives tracked and pursued the syndicate around the state in an attempt to stop the violence, collect evidence and dismantle the group - a tightly controlled group of outlaws from whom no one is safe, not even woman and children. Ice Nation is an intimate blow-by-blow account by the lead investigating officer of police efforts to bring the syndicate to justice. It is a snapshot of the epidemic that is taking over our country and a horrifying picture of the destruction of family and friends.

Depths by Henning Mankell Pdf

Internationally acclaimed and bestselling author Henning Mankell will be published for the first time in Canada by Knopf Canada with Depths. October 1914: the destroyer Svea emerged from the Stockholm archipelago bearing south-southeast. On board was Lars Tobiasson-Svartman, a naval engineer charged with making depth soundings to find a navigable channel for the Swedish navy. As a child Tobiasson-Svartman was fascinated by measurement; nothing is as magical as exact knowledge. His instinct for his profession is reflected in the comfortable domesticity he enjoys with his wife – herself meticulous in every detail. Close to the waters where soundings are taken Tobiasson-Svartman alights on a barren skerry, presumed uninhabited, and is surprised to discover there a young woman, Sara Fredrika. Despite her almost feral appearance, something about her strikes him to the core. The mission is a success and the Svea returns to Gothenburg. Tobiasson-Svartman, however, remains haunted by this chance encounter; his equilibrium has been disturbed, and he is now compelled to find any pretence to return to the remote islet. In Depths Mankell confirms his status as a writer deserving acclaim beyond the crime genre. By delving deep into the male psyche, he has produced a novel as tense and compelling in every way as the Wallander series, but also powerful, moving and ultimately tragic.
