Attorney Matt Archer's new client is an outlaw biker busted for smuggling drugs across the Canadian border. Defending his client caught dead-to-rights will be tough enough. Complicating matters are a sexy state legislator, a pot-smoking local judge, and a sheriff with a chip on his shoulder. Welcome to small-town politics in Salish County ... and a guy trying to repair a marriage and be the kind of dad he wants to be for his savvy ten-year-old daughter.
It is not just important for young learners to master familiar shapes like triangles, circles, and squares. Recognizing and identifying two-dimensional ("flat") or three-dimensional ("solid") shapes is a geometry standard of Common Core math. This helpful book, written to be accessible for our youngest learners, allows readers to compare 2-D shapes with their 3-D counterparts, such as a circle and sphere. Photographs clearly illustrate the qualities that define each. Concluding questions help readers review geometric terms.
"Is it time yet?" This useful book helps readers practice answering this question for themselves using analog clocks. They'll learn what each clock hand indicates and how to tell time in hour and half-hour increments. Telling time using an analog clock is an important step for young learners, and an early standard of Common Core math, and this straightforward text and accompanying photographs guide readers in mastery of that fundamental skill. Final questions aid in evaluating what they've learned.

The Lord Works in Mysterious Ways is a story about the Little family and how the world events effected their lives. The story begins in a quiet little village in Europe, but do to very profound events they has to leave there home and come to the United States. Things were not easy going in the United States either. The events that caused them to leave Europe caught up with them and they had to move. This humble family had to undergo many difficulties, but there Faith, drive, and determination always help them succeed. They have always believed when the Lord closes a door he opens a window somewhere, you just have to find it. The Little family have always held true to strong values of what is right and what is wrong, which is brought out in the book. Today my wife and I live in a retirement home and we have some health problem, but I am a Chaplain in the American Legion and have been over fifteen years. I try very hard to help fellow veterans and my community. My brother Solomon was in the army for twenty six years and flew a helicopter in Vietnam, where he was shot down twice and won two purple hearts as a result. That is another story. What I am getting at it was our Faith in the Lord and our determination has always helped us succeed. I wrote this book to try to help people that are down on luck to try to give them some encouragement to succeed.
Richard Little's latest collection of stories from the road begins high in the Rockies. Rivers, blue traceries on a map, are pathways of history. What are their legacies? Hang out with Butch Cassidy, Sitting Bull, Teddy Roosevelt, and others to find out ... and consider legacies we might leave to others.
Seven thousand miles and twenty three states by car. Richard Little combines his love of history and travel in these stories of a road trip he and his wife Cherie took across America - with passengers as diverse as Woody Guthrie, Ogden Nash, and Huckleberry Finn.
The Balance of Power in International Relations
Richard Little
Cambridge University Press
2007
pokkari
The balance of power has been a central concept in the theory and practice of international relations for the past five hundred years. It has also played a key role in some of the most important attempts to develop a theory of international politics in the contemporary study of international relations. In this 2007 book, Richard Little establishes a framework that treats the balance of power as a metaphor, a myth and a model. He then uses this framework to reassess four major texts that use the balance of power to promote a theoretical understanding of international relations: Hans J. Morgenthau's Politics Among Nations (1948), Hedley Bull's The Anarchical Society (1977), Kenneth N. Waltz's Theory of International Politics (1979) and John J. Mearsheimer's The Tragedy of Great Power Politics (2001). These reassessments allow the author to develop a more comprehensive model of the balance of power.

International Systems in World History
Barry Buzan; Richard Little
Oxford University Press
2000
nidottu
This book tells the 60,000 year story of how humankind evolved from a scattering of hunter-gatherer bands to todays highly integrated global international political economy. It traces the evolution of ever-wider economic, societal and military-political international systems, and the interplay between these systems and the tribes, city states, empires, and modern states into which humans have organised themselves. Buzan and Little marry a wide range of mainstream International Relations theories to a world historical perspective. They mount a stinging attack on International Relations as a discipline, arguing that its Eurocentrism, historical narrowness, and theoretical fragmentation have reduced almost to nothing both its cross-disclipinary influence and its ability to think coherently about either the past or the future. Seeking to emulate and challenge the cross-disciplinary influence of the world systems model, the book recasts the study of International Relations into a macro-historical perspective, shows how its core concepts work across time, and sets out a new theoretical agenda and a new intellectual role for the discipline.
