Shadow Hatcher is determined to change his life. Despite his unusually high aptitude for his dream career as an astronaut, Shadow’s lowly status in 23rd century England makes it nearly impossible to attain. This changes when Shadow witnesses a murder near his family’s farm. His daring witness testimony earns him the attention and respect of society’s most powerful people, the Talented, whose links to the ruling class can make Shadow’s dream come true. When his testimony results in the collapse of an illegal Dream Morphine racket, Shadow is thrown into a strange new world with dangers that he can barely begin to fathom. As he becomes more deeply involved in the world of the Talented, he must live with dark secrets and face constant dangers to prevent his family from paying the ultimate price for his success. A price someone now seems intent on making them pay...
Research on talent development and gifted education has made enormous strides over the past decades. Yet, much of the actual talent development and gifted education work being done fails to live up to the field's promise. This book highlights recent theoretical approaches and discusses empirical research conclusions which have yet to receive the attention they deserve. It also considers possibilities for harnessing these insights for current talent development and gifted education efforts.

The Art of Video Production emphasizes the enduring principles and essential skills of the communication process and the new digital technologies that are necessary to create effective video content. Author Leonard C. Shyles uses a unique approach by explaining how things are done and why things are done rather than just that they are done—it is not about concepts versus skills, but about concepts and skills.
The art and science of talent search: how to spot, assess, woo, and retain highly talented people. How do you find talent with a creative spark? To what extent can you predict human creativity, or is human creativity something irreducible before our eyes, perhaps to be spotted or glimpsed by intuition, but unique each time it appears? Obsessed with these questions, renowned economist Tyler Cowen and venture capitalist and entrepreneur Daniel Gross set out to study the art and science of finding talent at the highest level: the people with the creativity, drive, and insight to transform an organization and make everyone around them better. Cowen and Gross guide the reader through the major scientific research areas relevant for talent search, including how to conduct an interview, how much to weight intelligence, how to judge personality and match personality traits to jobs, how to evaluate talent in online interactions such as Zoom calls, why talented women are still undervalued and how to spot them, how to understand the special talents in people who have disabilities or supposed disabilities, and how to use delegated scouts to find talent. Talent appreciation is an art, but it is an art you can improve through study and experience. Identifying underrated, brilliant individuals is one of the simplest ways to give yourself an organizational edge, and this is the book that will show you how to do that. Talent is both for people searching for talent and for those who wish to be searched for, found, and discovered.

Over 1,300 total pages ... To the young man or woman choosing a Navy career field, whether for one enlistment or for 30 years, the journalist rating offers endless avenues for an imaginative, yet mature, thinker. Many of the duties and responsibilities of the journalist rank among Americans’ favorite hobbies and pastimes, such as writing, broadcasting and photography. The Navy journalist learns and practices a distinguished profession and becomes an official representative of the Navy in public affairs matters. The first enlisted specialists to work full time in the field of Navy journalism were Naval Reserve personnel selected during the early years of World War II. They were designated Specialist X (Naval Correspondents). In 1948, under a major overhaul affecting almost every enlisted rating, the journalist (JO) rating was established. MAJOR TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Identify the major tasks and responsibilities of the Navy journalist, the personal traits required for one to best perorm the duties of the rating, the applicable NECs, and the purpose of the JO 3 & 2 training manual (TRAMAN). In our democratic society, government depends on the consent of the governed. This important principle means that, in the long run, the United States government does only what the people want it to do. Therefore, we can have a Navy only if the people know and understand the importance of the Navy and support it. The Navy, like the other services, depends on this country’s citizens for the four key tools of its trade — personnel, money, materials and the authority to carry out its mission. As a Navy journalist, your main function will be to make the facts about your Navy available to the Navy’s three main publics — the people at your ship or station, Navy people in general and the people of the United States as a whole.
The shadows are speaking. Can their riddle be unraveled? Eleven years ago, Royal bodyguard Giacomo da Prado first followed young Prince Luca into the shadows. Plunged against his will into a world of illicit magic, Giaco has tried to hold onto the rationality of a Reborn man, even as he walks the line between the two worlds. But now, called upon to serve as Prince Luca’s bodyguard once again, Giaco has to face all his worst fears. Luca has disappeared into the shadows—and Giaco’s beloved wife, the famed card-reader Amanda, is in danger of being pulled after him. Can Giaco overcome his training and his innate distaste of dark magic in order to save the two people he loves the most? Set in a magical version of Renaissance Florence, The City of Shadows will appeal to fans of paranormal and occult suspense, as well as dark and historical fantasy. It is Book 3 in the Giaco & Luca Series, but can be read as a standalone.
