Since the dawn of civilization, a hidden hand has gripped mankind.Operating in darkness with limitless wealth and power, this ancient Shadow Caste has controlled every major event in human history-mass migrations, revolutions, plagues, even two world wars.But now these ancient "caretakers" want to change the global experiment. Civilization is too successful, they believe, and our overpopulation threatens the existence of all life on earth. Their solution? To cull humanity's ever-growing herd.They've tried it before-slashing our numbers with wars and pandemics, even propping up murderous dictators to gauge the results-but the new scale of death they desire far exceeds even their unlimited resources.What this cult seeks is supernatural intervention. And they think they may have found it in a collection of ancient stones, hidden by time and faded from memory, that together can ignite a global cataclysm to kill billions in moments. Luckily, former secret agent turned adventurer Sean Wyatt has no intention of letting this secret global cabal commit genocide. Armed to the teeth and racing across the world to stop this disaster, Wyatt and his crew will fight to the death so that, finally, humanity can live free.From the first chapter, USA Today best-selling author Ernest Dempsey grabs you and never lets go. This latest novel in the fan-favorite Sean Wyatt series will keep you guessing until the end and leave you wondering: Is this just fiction? Or could we actually face a similar dark future?

The book discusses climate technology transfer under the UNFCCC framework, and China’s relevant legislation and practices. It first explores theoretical basis of climate change-related technology transfer, with a particular focus on the differences between climate technology transfer and business-as-usual performance. The book then reviews practices of both technology supplier and user, in order to generally identify potential legal barriers and obstacles. Finally, it sheds light on China, providing a comprehensive assessment on barriers that hinder the trans-boundary transfers of low carbon technologies and need to be overcome in future. The issues concerned involve two of the most dynamic areas in current China’s lawmaking progress: environment laws and Intellectual Property laws. The book provides an in-depth analysis on China’s legislation and practices in this regard. At international level, the legal framework of climate technology transfer is examined in a systematic, prudent and constructive manner. On this basis, the book highlights potential commons, consistency and possible coordination between the UNFCCC and the WTO regime. This book is accessible to both Chinese and international environmental law specialists. It appeals to a broad readership, including environmental scientists, economists concerned with China’s intellectual property law, foreign investment law and anyone interested in the topic: how to green intellectual property rights regime for climate technology transfer in the China context.

Standards have become widespread regulatory tools that are set to promote global trade, innovation, efficiency, and quality. They contribute significantly to the creation of safe, reliable, and high quality services and technologies to ensure human health, environmental protection, or information security. Yet intentional deviations from standards by organizations are often reported in many sectors, which can either contribute to or challenge the measures of safety and quality they are designed to safeguard. Why then, despite all potential consequences, do organizations choose to deviate from standards in one way or another? This book uses structuration theory - covering aspects of both structure and agency - to explore the organizational conditions and contradictions under which different types of deviance occur. It provides empirical explanations for deviance in organizations that go beyond an understanding of individual misbehaviour where mainly a single person is held responsible. Case studies of software-developing organizations illustrate insightful generalizations on standards as a mechanism of sensemaking, resource allocation, and sanctioning, and provide ground to re-think corporate responsibility when deviating from standards in the 'audit society'.

This book brings together results from different branches of computer science (in particular, artificial intelligence), medical informatics and medicine to examine cutting edge approaches to computer-based guideline modeling, verification and interpretation. Different methods have been developed to support the development, deployment, maintenance and use of evidence-based guidelines, using techniques from artificial intelligence, software engineering, medical informatics and formal methods. Such methods employ different representation formalisms and computational techniques. As the guideline-related research spans a wide range of research communities, a comprehensive integration of the results of these communities was lacking. It is the intention of this book to fill this gap. It is the first book of its kind that partially has the nature of a textbook. The book consists of two parts. The first part consists of nine chapters which together offer a comprehensive overview of the most important medical and computer-science aspects of clinical guidelines and protocols. The second part of the book consists of chapters that are extended versions of selected papers that were originally submitted to the ECAI-2006 workshop ‘AI Techniques in Health Care: Evidence-based Guidelines and Protocols’. These chapters will provide the reader detailed information about actual research in the area by leading researchers.
