A Magician's Memoir is a collection of short pieces of writing that convey the experience of contact with the invisible world of spirit. It consists of short bursts of experience and meaning. It is highly condensed and often surprising. The sensitive reader may gasp or cry. Readers interested in such content have said the material is helpful. Some express delight.The book consists of a mixture of genres: stories both factual and transcendent, dialogues with a variety of beings, haiku-like journaling, poetry, color images, travel to exotic locales. Generally, each piece extends over no more than a page or two. It is the kind of book you can pick up and begin reading any piece because each one stands on its own.The author Jack Cain considers his job that of a scribe. The material is given from an invisible source - words appear but they are not visual or auditory - they appear in consciousness. During the writing process, it is important not to "fall into the words." Don't think about them too much. Just verify, "Did I get that right? Is the grammar clear?" And move on.May this material be a positive influence in our unfolding world.

This textbook provides students with an aid to consolidating understanding of the principles and applications of structural mechanics. It is not a standard textbook, but a support for a main course text and/or lecture material. Each chapter begins with a summary of essential theory, important facts, then relevant equations are presented and summarised in a Fact Sheet. This is followed by a series of carefully paced and sequenced worked examples using real exam questions, with additional explanatory notes. At the end of each chapter there are additional problems with answers given, for further problem-solving practice. The text reinforces knowledge learnt in lectures and through companion textbooks, completes understanding, and helps in preparing for exams. Structural Mechanics: Worked Examples is an ideal companion resource for undergraduate courses in Civil Engineering and Construction. It works well alongside Hulse and Cain's Structural Mechanics text, but can equally well be used alongside any other introductory textbook.

This second edition of Structural Mechanics is an expanded and revised successor to the highly successful first edition, which over the last ten years has become a widely adopted standard first year text.
