Legend
The story of New Zealand's most successful exporter and its head, Bill Gallagher, who built on the invention of an electric fence to make the company a world leader in its field. New Zealanders are always being exhorted to take a clever idea and go global. Easier said than done. But one iconic company has been doing just that for over 75 years. Gallagher Industries began in a Hamilton shed in the late 1930s, when a self-taught engineer, Bill Gallagher, came up with a design for an electric fence that transformed New Zealand farming. His sons Bill junior and John took over the business in the 1970s and applied their engineering genius and driving ambition to turn it into one of this country's...
Electoral Systems
How do different electoral systems work to translate votes into seats? What effects do they have on the political system, on political actors, and on voters? Does the choice of electoral system always involve a trade-off between strong and stable government and representation? And do electoral systems matter as much as we might think? This fully revised and expanded third edition examines the principal types of electoral systems used in over 75 of the world's democracies. It explores why countries choose the electoral systems they do and explains how the different systems function; it investigates the consequences of electoral systems, including on the party system and on government formation and stability, on representation and the quality of democracy, and on parties, politicians, and voters. Clearly structured, wide-ranging in focus, and incorporating an array of visual material – including authentic ballot papers, tables and figures – this in-depth study remains the go-to text for students and researchers seeking to understand electoral systems around the world.
Off Broadway Musicals, 1910-2007
Despite an often unfair reputation as being less popular, less successful, or less refined than their bona-fide Broadway counterparts, Off Broadway musicals deserve their share of critical acclaim and study. A number of shows originally staged Off Broadway have gone on to their own successful Broadway runs, from the ever-popular A Chorus Line and Rent to more off-beat productions like Avenue Q and Little Shop of Horrors. And while it remains to be seen if other popular Off Broadway shows like Stomp, Blue Man Group, and Altar Boyz will make it to the larger Broadway theaters, their Off Broadway runs have been enormously successful in their own right. This book discusses more than 1,800 Off Br...
Praemortis 2
Tras la muerte de Robert Veldecker, Raquildis, su anterior consejero, es quien lidera Praemortis. Su liderazgo se mezcla con su devoción hacia la criatura marina, el Haiyim, capaz de extender sus tentáculos hasta las voluntades de quienes le ofrecen su lealtad. Entretanto, Leandra, se debate entre la vida y la muerte en la prisión de Wael. La realidad se mezcla con sus delirios, mientras una decisión cobra forma en su interior: ¿es cierto lo que promete el Golem? Wael será algo más que una prisión para su cuerpo. Su espíritu deberá enfrentarse a sí mismo, a su naturaleza oscura, en una prueba final que podría poner en peligro el futuro de todo cuanto existe. Sin embargo, lo que todos desconocen es que Erik Gallagher, el noble más carismático de la ciudad, no ha muerto. Permanece oculto bajo el cuidado de Ipser Zarrio, desarrollando un plan demente para acabar con la ciudad. Praemortis II muestra un mundo en donde el sol ha dejado de lucir y las temperaturas bajan de manera vertiginosa. Algo está a punto de suceder, algo de enorme magnitud. Descubrir a tiempo de qué se trata podría salvar a toda la humanidad.
