In The Guilty Plea and Old City Hall, critically acclaimed author Robert Rotenberg created gripping page-turners that captured audiences in Canada and around the world. Rotenberg's bestsellers do for Toronto what Ian Rankin has done for Edinburgh and Michael Connelly for Los Angeles. In Stray Bullets, Rotenberg takes the reader to a snowy November evening. Outside a busy downtown doughnut shop, gunshots ring out and a young boy is critically hurt. Soon Detective Ari Greene is on scene. How many shots were fired? How many guns? How many witnesses? With grieving parents and a city hungry for justice, the pressure is on to convict the man accused of this horrible crime. Against this tidal wave of indignation, defence counsel Nancy Parish finds herself defending her oldest and most difficult client. But does anyone know the whole story? Stray Bullets is Robert Rotenberg's third intricate mystery set on the streets and in the courtrooms of Toronto.

*Covers the real-world issues of selection, design, installation, testing, safety, legislation... neglected by university texts *An easy-to-read introduction that assumes no prior knowledge beyond basic concepts of voltage and current - ideal for non-specialists as well as practitioners *Covers new BICSI (US / international) regulations and EU framework John Crisp has produced a unique, practical guide to the principles, technology, application and installation of copper cable systems. Assuming only a basic grasp of the concepts of voltage and current, this book will appeal to a wide audience: installation engineers, production staff in the telecommunications industry, IT technicians, managers requiring a working knowledge of data cabling, vocational students and first year degree students seeking an insight into the practicalities of copper cable systems. This book uses the same successful formula as Crisp's highly regarded Introduction to Fiber Optics, which is well established as an introductory text for engineers, managers and students. A lively, readable text is supported throughout by clear illustrations, worked examples where needed, and self-check review questions. Because this is a book for engineers the practical coverage is reinforced by use of the latest interanational standards, in particular BICSI standards (USA and international) and EU requirements. This will make the book ideal for the large number of industry-based training courses. Coverage has also been matched to the requirements of the revised City & Guilds 3466-04 course.
