Every so often, a book comes along, which challenges everything we think we know about love and relationships; a book that takes us on an incredible journey and allows us to glimpse those rare moments in life when love truly conquers all and sometimes the most unlikely candidates find themselves drawn to each other like bees to nectar. This is one such book. In this book, you will discover that true love has no boundaries. It is the glue that holds the pages of life together for two unlikely souls who just happen to discover that love is timeless and does not come with an expiration date. This book represents the intense love a man has for his wife. Its an uncommon union, to be sure, but make no mistake about it, for the love shared by these two unlikely people is real and true. You only need to read this love letter written by man to his wife to understand that true love cannot be quenched or stopped; it continues to grow into something intense and beautiful. What makes this book special is that it proves that fairytales can really come true when you let them. Heres one that did. I was both entertained and fascinated. It is a powerful story and well told. A great read. John Hughes-Wilson (British Writer)

This volume contains the proceedings of the 16th Carolina Dynamics Symposium, held from April 13–15, 2018, at Agnes Scott College, Decatur, Georgia. The papers cover various topics in dynamics and randomness, including complex dynamics, ergodic theory, topological dynamics, celestial mechanics, symbolic dynamics, computational topology, random processes, and regular languages. The intent is to provide a glimpse of the richness of the field and of the common threads that tie the different specialties together.

This book focuses on modern coordination chemistry, covering porous coordination polymers, metalloproteins, metallopeptides, nanoclusters, nanocapsules, aligned polymers, and fullerenes. As well, it deals with applications to electronic devices and surface characterization. These wide-ranging topics are integrally described from the perspectives of dimensionality (one-, two-, and three-dimension), new materials design, synthesis, molecular assembly, function and application. The nine chapters making up this book have been authored by scientists who are at the cutting edge of research in this particular field. The level is appropriate for graduate students, post-doc researchers, and new faculty members whose aim is to become familiar with modern coordination chemistry from its basics to applications.

Folklore tells us something about almost every aspect of the life of the people. This rich and entertaining collection of Nebraska pioneer folklore, taken largely from the Nebraska Folklore Pamphlets issued by the Federal Writers' Project in the 1930s, is intended first and foremost for the general reader, for the people whose heritage it is. Songs of trail and prairie and of the Farmers' Alliance, white man's yarns and Indian tales, pioneer Nebraska folk customs, sayings, proverbs, beliefs, children's games, cooking, and cures—these "wondrously entertaining kaleidoscopic reflections of the people and environment that were inspirations of the classic literature of Mari Sandoz and Willa Cather—to name two—could be a model for Americana collectors in other states to emulate. . . . A treasury indeed."—King Features Syndicate "Parade of Books."

This book presents the Chinese reflexivisation system, investigating the different types of Chinese reflexive constructions and offering an analysis of these, in an attempt to integrate syntactic, morphological and discourse-related aspects of the phenomena. In Chinese, two distinct types of reflexive have been widely discussed in the literature: simplex reflexive ziji "self", which is a long-distance reflexive, and complex reflexive pronoun + ziji, such as taziji "himself", which must be locally bound. In addition, Chinese has a kind of double reflexive construction, such as ziji-benshen, and reflexive clitics zi "self" and ziwo "self". This book argues that reflexive clitics must be locally bound; and that under certain conditions, both simplex reflexive ziji and complex reflexives can be locally bound, long-distance bound, or even free in an entire sentence. This study proposes that every type of reflexive has two structures: one is an anaphoric structure, while the other is a logophoric structure. When a verb assigns an anaphoric theta role, the reflexive can have the anaphoric structure and the head of the reflexive NP is allowed to adjoin the head of the VP at LF. If a reflexive cannot receive an anaphoric theta role, it can have a logophoric structure. In the logophoric structure, the head of the reflexive DP must be a pro in order to receive the disjoint theta role from the verb.
