These two volumes list late-and mid-Victorian poets, with brief biographical information and bibliographical details of published works. The major strength of the works is the 'discovery' of very many minor poets and their work, unrecorded elsewhere.

Believe in climate change. Or don't. It doesn't matter. But you'd better understand this: the best route to rebuilding our economy, our cities, and our job markets, as well as assuring national security, is doing precisely what you would do if you were scared to death about climate change. Whether you're the head of a household or the CEO of a multinational corporation, embracing efficiency, innovation, renewables, carbon markets, and new technologies is the smartest decision you can make. It's the most profitable, too. And, oh yes—you'll help save the planet. In Climate Capitalism, L. Hunter Lovins, coauthor of the bestselling Natural Capitalism, and the sustainability expert Boyd Cohen prove that the future of capitalism in a recession-riddled, carbon-constrained world will be built on innovations that cutting-edge leaders are bringing to the market today. These companies are creating jobs and driving innovation. Climate Capitalism delivers hundreds of indepth case studies of international corporations, small businesses, NGOs, and municipalities to prove that energy efficiency and renewable resources are already driving prosperity. While highlighting business opportunities across a range of sectors—including energy, construction, transportation, and agriculture technologies—Lovins and Cohen also show why the ex–CIA director Jim Woolsey drives a solar-powered plugin hybrid vehicle. His bumper sticker says it all: "Osama bin Laden hates my car." Corporate executives, entrepreneurs, environmentalists, and concerned citizens alike will find profitable ideas within these pages. In ten information-packed chapters, Climate Capitalism gives tangible examples of early adopters across the globe who see that the low-carbon economy leads to increased profits and economic growth. It offers a clear and concise road map to the new energy economy and a cooler planet.

"To guarantee students have a working knowledge of appropriate vocabulary before entering secondary school, educators need to establish an effective vocabulary program in their schools and classrooms. In Teaching Basic, Advanced, and Academic Vocabulary: A Comprehensive Framework for Elementary Instruction, author Robert J. Marzano provides elementary educators with a comprehensive framework for vocabulary instruction. Marzano defines three different tiers of vocabulary terms: (1) Tier 1 terms are those words that are frequently used in the English language, (2) Tier 2 terms appear less frequently, and (3) Tier 3 terms are specific to grade level and subject area. By organizing these terms into semantic clusters and subject areas, Marzano creates a powerful and unique approach to ensuring students build their vocabulary. By reading this book, K-5 teachers will obtain the tools and strategies needed to construct a solid foundation for literacy development in their classrooms"--
