When fifteen-year-old Beth Week’s family is attacked by a grizzly, her father becomes increasingly violent, making him a danger to his neighbors, his family, and especially Beth. Meanwhile, several young children from the nearby Indian reservation have gone missing, and Beth fears that something is pursuing her in the bush. But friendship with an Indian girl connects her to a mythology that enriches her landscape; and an unexpected protector shores up her world. Set on an isolated Canadian farm in the midst of World War II, The Cure for Death by Lightning evokes a life at once harshly demanding and rich in sensory pleasures: the deafening chatter of starlings, the sight of thousands of painted turtles crossing a road, the smell of baking that fills the Weeks’s kitchen. The novel is sprinkled throughout with recipes and remedies from the scrapbook Beth’s mother keeps, a boon to Beth as she learns to face down her demons--and one of many elements that give The Cure for Death by Lightning its enchanting vitality.

Ethical Computing is a means to an end as well as an end to itself; a problem, and a solution to a problem. It is the application of computer ethics in striving for doing-the-right-thing effectively in cyberspace or an information-intensive and technology-driven environment. The book addresses the realities of using computers while measuring up to the hexa-dimension metric (technically effective, financially viable, legally valid, ethically and socially acceptable and ecologically sustainable) manifested in applications from problem to ethical solution. This book collects work and research in practise and teaching across decades, covering a multitude of fields including information technology and engineering, computer audit & data governance, law practice and enforcement, and public and business administration. This is useful reference for researchers, teachers and students in all fields of information technology. It will also be useful for Chief Information Officers and Chief Technology Officers (CIOs and CTOs) and information systems auditors, and specialist IT law practitioners.
