Synopsis Hostile Emergence by : Stan C. Smith
A frenzied escape. A city of hope. An unforeseen threat. Skyra, Lincoln, and their companions have narrowly escaped a brutal war between Neanderthals and humans. Now they find themselves far in the future, in a world filled with a puzzling assortment of creatures, many with a craving for flesh and a habit of attacking in swarms. With equipment remaining for only one more time jump, the group must try to make a life here or risk jumping to an even more hostile environment. The good news? A city of gleaming skyscrapers is visible in the distance. After a harrowing journey through miles of wilderness, the travelers discover the city is empty. Or is it? Never mind the giant killer bats roosting in the abandoned buildings-something else is here, a presence not even Lincoln, with his vast technological knowledge, can explain. Skyra is Neanderthal, Lincoln is human, but they are bound by an intense love for each other. They just want to find a safe place to start a new life. The abandoned city seems like a suitable home-until the residents begin to show themselves. Hostile Emergence, the third book in the Across Horizons series, is for readers who love time travel adventures, strange alien societies, and unforgettable characters.

Synopsis The Emergence of Corporate Governance by : Knut Sogner
Corporate governance is not just about models of best practice organisation or prescriptions following laws or social conventions. Corporate governance is also about persons of power seeking performance, and they do so in ways that transcend structures and pre-conceived notions of the structural set-up of the business. This book emphasises the decision-making dimensions of corporate governance, placing it right in the messy middle of the ever-changing world of capitalism, focussing on the interplay between professional managers and shareholders. This book aims to bring together several fresh perspectives on the development of capitalism seen through the lens of corporate governance. It illustrates the role of intentionality and persons, both as a method with which to understand processes of change, but also as a principle with which to seek a deeper understanding of the corporate governance choices made. It will be of interest to researchers, academics and students in the fields of corporate governance and entrepreneurship, as well as practitioners and other audience interested in the evolution of capitalism and corporate culture.

Synopsis An Emergence of Green by : Katherine V. Forrest
An encounter between trophy wife Carolyn Blake and her new neighbor—tall athletic artist Val Hunter—leads to a close friendship and deepening emotions that young Carolyn has never known. Suddenly, as Carolyn questions what she has always accepted, her carefully manicured domestic life begins to unravel. Husband Paul Blake, a successful rags-to-riches businessman, recognizes the threat that Val Hunter represents, and he is not about to let his wife out of his control or accept any of her stirrings of self-determination.

Synopsis Corporate Takeover Law and Management Discipline by : Francis A Okanigbuan Jnr
This book examines the effectiveness of corporate takeovers. The dominant ideologies of corporate takeovers include synergistic gains and its managerial disciplinary role. These dominant themes are being undermined by the challenges of costly acquisitions. The UK Takeover Code is a regulatory response to the role of managers of target companies only. Also, the regulatory framework for takeovers in the United States is largely focused on target companies. The book demonstrates that managements can influence the role of takeovers, thereby undermining its synergistic and disciplinary values. Presenting an identification and evaluation of the limits of current regulatory and judicial control over the role of management during takeovers in the UK and the US -Delaware, it will identify the relevance of institutional control as an effective mechanism for addressing the challenges of managerial influence over takeover functions. It will also identify how the role of managements can be addressed with the complementary benefit to shareholder and employee interests; thereby challenging the shareholder/ stakeholder primacy debate in corporate law, particularly in relation to takeovers. This book will be essential reading for scholars and students interested in the market for corporate control, corporate law and company law.

Synopsis Hostile Homes by : Steven A. Hirschler
This book explores the ways in which the state and private security firms contribute to the direct and structural harm of asylum seekers through policies and practices that result in states of perpetual destitution, exclusion, and neglect. By synthesising historic and contemporary public policy, criminological and sociological perspectives, political philosophy, and the direct experiential accounts of asylum seekers living within dispersed accommodation, this text exposes the complex and co-dependent relationship between the state’s social control aims and neoliberal imperatives of market expansion into the immigration control regime. The title borrows from former Home Secretary Theresa May’s pronouncement that the UK government aimed to foster a ‘hostile environment’ in its response to illegal immigration. While the Home Office later attempted to rebrand its hostile environment policy as a ‘compliant environment’, this book illustrates how aggressive approaches toward the management of asylum-seeking populations has effectively extended the hostile environment to those legally present within the UK. Through an examination of the expanded privatisation of dispersed asylum housing and the UK government’s reliance on contracts with private security firms like G4S and Serco, this book explores the lived realities of hostile environments as asylum seekers’ accounts reveal the human costs of marketised asylum accommodation programmes.
