When Vera Koo enrolled in a firearm safety course in the late 1980s, she couldn't have looked more out of a place. She was a petite, Chinese-American woman in a class of mostly men. She had no idea this ?man's world? was about to turn her life upside down. In The Most Unlikely Champion, she shares her story of perseverance that eventually transformed her into the most unlikely pistol champion, an eight-time winner of the Bianchi Cup, America's most prestigious action-pistol championship. In this memoir, she narrates how she had plenty of experience as a woman in a man's world. She?d grown up in Hong Kong, where conservative Chinese values told women their place was in the home, where they would serve their husbands as supportive wives and mothers. When Koo was twelve, her father moved the family to the United States. With new opportunities came new challenges. Koo and her husband, Carlos, navigated the male-dominated world of real estate, only to find their business teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. They tried to build a family, but were shaken, time and again, by unexpected tragedies. Throughout the journey, she developed a deep faith in God which helped her the survive pain and disappointment threatening to crush her. The Most Unlikely Champion tells a story of triumph and tragedy, persistence, and pain. But more than that, it's about how faith and hard work can help a person achieve more than they thought possible.

Oral Microbiology and Immunology
Third Edition
The field of oral microbiology has seen fundamental conceptual changes in recent years. Microbial communities are now seen as the fundamental etiological agent in oral diseases through their interface with host inflammatory responses. Study of structured microbial communities has increased our understanding of the roles of each member in the pathogenesis of oral diseases, principles that apply to both periodontitis and dental caries.
Against this backdrop, the third edition of Oral Microbiology and Immunology has been substantially expanded and rewritten by an international team of authors and editors. Featured in the current edition are:
links between oral infections and systemic disease
revised and updated overview of the role of the immune system in oral infections
thorough discussions of biofilm development and control
more extensive illustrations and Key Points for student understanding
Graduate students, researchers, and clinicians as well as students will find this new edition valuable in study and practice.

Автор: Justin Koo Название: The Right of Communication to the Public in EU Copyright Law ISBN: 150992065X ISBN-13(EAN): 9781509920655 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 89760.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This monograph conducts a comprehensive analysis of the EU right of communication to the public, one of the exclusive rights under EU copyright law, and provides an alternative framework for its interpretation and application. The present state of the law is unsatisfactory; there is uncertainty in the acquis communautaire and courts at the EU and domestic levels have struggled to apply the right. Therefore, the book identifies the problems with the existing right of communication to the public and proposes recommendations for reform. In addition to reforming the scope of the right of communication to the public, the jurisdiction and applicable law in relation to the right are analysed and changes are recommended. Thus, the book covers both the scope and practicalities of a coherent and effective reform of the right. In light of the continuing development and accompanying tribulations with this right at the EU level, this book provides a topical and timely analysis that will be of interest to academics and practitioners working on EU copyright law.
