Tiny is a memoir by award-winning travel writer Louise Southerden about her quest to create a simpler way of life by building her very own tiny house. In her successful career as a travel writer, Louise found herself staying in ever new and exotic locations, but while staying in a cabin in Norway, she had an epiphany about what she truly wanted for her life, ready to put down roots. With no prior building experience, Louise decided to build a tiny house with her partner, Max, which tested an already unstable relationship. Over the year and a half of planning and construction of her tiny house, Louise witnessed her new home coming together as her relationship was falling apart. Alongside her burgeoning construction skills, Louise learned about love, home, forgiveness and what we really need to be happy. This is an intensely personal story about searching for home and true love, two of life's most fundamental needs, risking everything, failing and finding ways to cope, and discovering that what we need isn't always what we thought we wanted.

Real estate prices affect the wealth and mindset of all sections of society, from multibillionaire's to the unemployed. Residential real estate prices depend on a large number of demand and supply side factors. This book was written after a thorough qualitative analysis of all these factors affecting the residential property market, particularly in Hong Kong. To understand the impact that different demand and supply side variables have on property prices, an extensive Ordinary Least squares (OLS) regression was carried out, and the results are discussed in an uncomplicated manner. The results are not exclusive to Hong Kong, as the findings are suitable to understand real estate in other countries as well. This research has found new factors that were not considered in earlier studies and have a notable impact on property prices. Furthermore, the history and geographic peculiarities of real estate in Hong Kong have been comprehensively explained. While this study engages in many mathematical processes, special efforts have been made to ensure it is an enjoyable read and provides an overall understanding of the residential property market.
The second edition of this book achieved worldwide recognition within the chocolate and confectionery industry. I was pressed to prepare the third edition to include modern developments in machinery, production, and packaging. This has been a formidable task and has taken longer than anticipated. Students still require, in one book, descriptions of the fundamental principles of the industry as well as an insight into modern methods. Therefore, parts of the previous edition describing basic technology have been retained, with minor alterations where necessary. With over fifty years' experience in the industry and the past eighteen years working as an author, lecturer, and consultant, I have collected a great deal of useful information. Visits to trade exhibitions and to manufacturers of raw materials and machinery in many parts of the world have been very valuable. Much research and reading have been necessary to prepare for teaching and lecturing at various colleges, seminars, and manufacturing establishments. The third edition is still mainly concerned with science, technology, and production. It is not a book of formulations, which are readily available elsewhere. Formulations without knowledge of principles lead to many errors, and recipes are given only where examples are necessary. _ Analytical methods are described only when they are not available in textbooks, of which there are many on standard methods of food analysis. Acknowledgments I am still indebted to many of the persons mentioned under "Acknowledgments" in the second edition. I am especially grateful to the following.
This book is intended for parents, teachers, for the benefit of the youngest to high school students, instructors in Krav Maga or self defense as well as their assistants and future instructors. Colleagues instructors or future instructors, before continuing reading this book, if your only motivation is to generate a new product or if children are a vector, I invite you, in all objectivity and humility, to review your project and therefore not to go further in reading. The imprint of the founder of the discipline on the path of self-defense or Krav Maga (for civilians) is HUMANIST and his motto was:"So that one may walk in peace"This work is the result of more than fifteen years of research from the courses for my own son to the collective courses for students from three years old in more than four structures regularly on Lyon and its agglomeration. This book is intended for parents, teachers of the school system for the benefit of the youngest to high school students, instructors of Krav Maga or self defense, their assistants and future instructors. You want to teach children to defend themselves by adapting perfectly to their constraints? Are you looking for the most suitable pedagogy for them as for adults?Do you want to understand the psychological, physical, physiological and educational issues? You expect a global understanding of this specialty? You simply want to teach children how to protect themselves without cultivating violence (including for adults)? You want to understand the child as a whole? This book is for you !Regarding this book, I quote Olivier CHAMBON, psychiatrist-psychotherapist who signs the preface: "This book reflects the beautiful person that is Stéphane CONSTANT: at the same time a great expert of Krav Maga dedicated to his students but also a man in search of a holistic understanding of life, learning about the latest scientific discoveries about the functioning of the brain and consciousness, and seeking a transmutation of violence into peace. I know Stéphane, I took his classes myself. I highly recommend this book to krav maga teachers, but also to parents who want to understand and accompany their children in this learning of security, both external and internal." This book will bring you all the knowledge necessary to educate children (adaptable to all students children as adults) to defend and secure themselvesBy managing their emotions through numerous exercisesBy Understanding the different risks with the appropriate solutionsDealing with harassment and physical attacksManaging a situation globally.
