Book excerpt: Fifteen-year-old Mina Clark lives in a future Manhattan that is ruled by extremists. Girls aren’t allowed to get an education, they need permission to speak to boys, and all marriages are negotiated by contract. But Mina’s grandmother has secretly been teaching her to read, leading Mina down a path of rebellion, romance, and danger that not only threatens to destroy her family’s reputation, it could get Mina killed. Suspenseful and empowering, Time Zero is about what it’s like to be powerless, underestimated, and manipulated and what it takes to go against society to assert who you actually want to be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have been written with respect to either time management, quality control/assurance, cost control or the likes. However, if you apply them in isolation, you may compromise either time, quality or cost. As a result, many people just accept the so called balance between time, quality and cost. To the writer, that balance is not good enough. So for the first time, a book is written with the view to acquire the three important values in totality and achieve excellence with the introduction of the terms zero time, zero mistake, zero cost and a problem solving principle. Chapter 1 will explain the philosophies behind the problem solving principle uphold by this book. Chapter 2 will illustrate the ingredients of this problem solving principle i.e. the formulas such as "the next definite step", "discontinue the work", "what we want ultimately", etc. which were derived from the philosophies explained in Chapter 1. Chapter 3 will explain how the formulas stated in Chapter 2 were applied in piece meal basis to manage fast track projects by some reputable companies in the world. Chapter 4 will illustrate how the formulas are integrated to form a simple but yet effective and efficient problem solving principle. The ways on how this problem solving principle can be applied to solve simple to complicated problems are explained in Chapter 5 This problem solving principle is also flexible such that you can integrate it with your way of thinking to manage time, quality and cost the way you want.

Book excerpt: It is an inescapable fact; every situation has a "Time Zero" waiting to occur, be it the expectant mother anxiously looking forward to her new baby, a weary worker watching the clock slowly drag toward quitting time, or the end of San Francisco as we know it today. A clandestine meeting on the French Rivera between a terrorist and an international arms dealer to obtain Atomic Demolition Charges (mini A-bombs) begins the trail of action and intrigue that culminates in San Francisco. Cross and double cross occurs as the A-bombs change hands. Captain Tim Mitchell, (the President's prodigal stepson), sneaks Major Jaqui Carlyle, an unauthorized crew member, onboard the final flight, testing the 21st century's newest military weapon. Night Vision Goggles for pilots. When exposed, Major Carlyle is reassigned to a new hush-hush facility in west Texas. Captain Mitchell is assigned to flying a desk as assistant information officer at the home of Star Wars. The Lawrence Livermore Laboratory in California. Armando Quionez; a self-educated scientist is contacted by the terrorist who Sky-Jacked the ADCs and manufactures the ADC detonators. To prove his firing pin works, one is exploded at White Sands New Mexico. Plexiglass coffins nicknamed "Gadgets" are constructed for two A-bombs which are placed under the Golden Gate and Bay bridges. The bombs are armed so if it is disturbed it will detonated. The news media is notified that the Gadgets are hot and the deadline for denotation is established.

Book excerpt: In Walking Zero, Chet Raymo uses the Prime Meridian-the line of zero longitude and the standard for all the world's maps and clocks-to tell the story of humandkind's intellectual journey from a cosmos not much larger than ourselves to the universe of the galaxies and geologic eons. As in his highly praised The Path and Climbing Brandon, Raymo connects personally with the story by walking England's Prime Meridian from Brighton through Greenwich to the North Sea. The Prime Meridian passes near a surprising number of landmarks that loom large in science: Isaac Newton's chambers at Trinity College, Cambridge; Charles Darwin's home at Down, in Kent; the site where the first dinosaur fossils were discovered; and John Harrison's clocks in a museum room of the Royal Observatory, among many others. Visiting them in turn, Raymo brings to life the human dramas of courageous individuals who bucked reigning orthodoxies to expand our horizons, including one brave rebel who paid the ultimate price for surmising the multitude of worlds we now take for granted. A splendid short history of astronomy and geology, Walking Zero illuminates the startling interplay of science, psychology, faith, and the arts in our understanding of space and time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text describes a series of models, propositions, and algorithms developed in recent years on time-varying networks. References and discussions on relevant problems and studies that have appeared in the literature are integrated in the book. Its eight chapters consider problems including the shortest path problem, the minimum-spanning tree problem, the maximum flow problem, and many more. The time-varying traveling salesman problem and the Chinese postman problem are presented in a chapter together with the time-varying generalized problem. While these topics are examined within the framework of time-varying networks, each chapter is self-contained so that each can be read – and used – separately.
