This informative, full-color text takes students step-by-step through the decision-making involved in the pre-production processes of apparel product development---planning, forecasting, fabricating, line development, technical design, pricing, sourcing, and distribution.

Cochrane, and Amit Seru bring together discussions and presentations from the Hoover Institution's annual monetary policy conference.

Setting out for the Saint Giles leper colony outside Shrewsbury, Brother Cadfael has more pressing matters on his mind than the grand wedding coming to his abbey. Yet as fate would have it, Cadfael arrives at Saint Giles just as the nuptial party passes the colony's gates. He sees the fragile bride, looking like a prisoner between her two stern guardians, and the bridegroom--an arrogant, fleshy aristocrat old enough to be her grandfather--and he quickly discerns that this union may be more damned than blessed. Indeed, a savage murder will interrupt the May-December marriage and leave Brother Cadfael with a dark, terrible mystery to solve. The key to the killing--and a secret--is hidden among the lepers of Saint Giles. Now, Brother Cadfael's skills must ferret out a sickness not of the body, but of a twisted soul.

Antología de poemas de amor y desamor de Karmelo C. Iribarren, influencia y referente fundamental de toda una nueva generación de poetas. La poesía de Karmelo C. Iribarren está teñida de calle y de bar, de amor y soledad, pero sobre todo de noche. Karmelo y su poesía crecieron detrás de una barra, en medio de sus horas de trabajo como camarero, y esa experiencia ha teñido todas sus letras de un aroma a ginebra de garrafa y a madrugada triste. Su poesía traspasa la experiencia para adentrarse en la poesía de lo anodino, de lo descarnado e incluso de la «desexperiencia», de lo que no fue, no se vivió o no se amó. El amor, ese viejo neón al que aún se le encienden las letras. La crítica ha dicho... «El poeta salvaje que nació en un bar (...) Poemas cañeros, ácidos, desencantados, tiernos, cotidianos, auténticos.» El Mundo «Los poemas de Karmelo C. Iribarren están llenos de miércoles cualquiera, de parejas que han dejado de quererse y se esquivan por los pasillos de casa, de cruces de ...
