"We thought this place was our destiny--not our doom." Pawns in a millennia-old struggle, the young people known only as the Birthday Children were genetically engineered to survive on the planet Omeyocan--but they were never meant to live there. They were made to be "overwritten," their minds wiped and replaced by the consciousnesses of the monsters who created them. Em changed all of that. She unified her people and led a revolt against their creators. Em and her friends escaped an ancient ghost ship and fled to Omeyocan. They thought they would find an uninhabited paradise. Instead, they found the ruins of a massive city long since swallowed by the jungle. And they weren't alone. The Birthday Children fought for survival against the elements, jungle wildlife, the "Grownups" who created them. and, as evil corrupted their numbers, even against themselves. With these opponents finally defeated, Em and her people realized that more threats were coming, traveling from across the universe to lay claim to their planet. The Birthday Children have prepared as best they can against this alien armada. Now, as the first ships reach orbit around Omeyocan, the final battle for the planet begins. Praise for Scott Sigler's Alive "Suspenseful. [Alive] lives up to its hype, packing plenty of thrills. A page-turner that whets the appetite for volume 2."--Entertainment Weekly "Fascinating and intriguing. a cross between Lord of the Flies and The Maze Runner and yet. so much more."--Fresh Fiction "A ripping, claustrophobic thunderbolt of a novel."--Pierce Brown, #1New York Times bestselling author of Red Rising "Unstoppable and real, M. Savage is one hell of aheroine. Get ready to be left breathless."--Kristin Cast, New York Times bestselling author of the House of Night series "Sigler has created a wonderful and engrossing character in M. Savage. Strong and smart, but with the naïvete and misgivings of any teenage girl, she's someone you'll definitely want on your side when s**t hits the fan, which it most certainly does."--Veronica Belmont, host of Sword & Laser "The puzzle unfolds masterfully, right down to the last page."--Phil Plait, PhD, author of Bad Astronomy"--Provided by publisher."The third and final installment in the dystopian adventure trilogy featuring a compelling young female heroine, hot on the heels of Alive and Alight. At last, our heroes get to the bottom of the confounding mystery of their own existence. At the same time, they must contend with the fact that if they can't defend the planet their bodies were engineered to inhabit, they'll be forced to flee--in hopes that some corner of the far-flung universe will prove hospitable"--Provided by publisher.The Generations Trilogy Teenage girls--FictionCaptivity--Juvenile fictionSurvival--Juvenile fictionTeenage girls--Fiction.Captivity--Juvenile fiction.Survival--Juvenile fiction.813.6Sigler Scott1246044MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910164952603321Alone2889364UNINA04919nam 22006134a 450 991097002490332120200520144314.09780313004711031300471497805853864610585386463(CKB)111036011523164(OCoLC)50681061(CaPaEBR)ebrary5004843(SSID)ssj0000266522(PQKBManifestationID)11205392(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000266522(PQKBWorkID)10305645(PQKB)10767038(Au-PeEL)EBL3000184(CaPaEBR)ebr5004843(OCoLC)847477242(MiAaPQ)EBC3000184(Perlego)4202365(EXLCZ)9911103601152316420000608d2001 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrValuation of intangible assets in global operations /edited by Farok J.

When companies undertake alliances or licensing agreements, effect mergers, sell or purchase brands, or evaluate R&D projects, a key issue is how each party puts a financial value on the intangible contribution. Valuations also have a tax implication, particularly in transnational operations. The contributors, including academics from five nations and expert practitioners from leading accounting and consulting companies, cover intellectual property strategy of global firms, valuation of human capital, and valuation techniques for the transfer or sale of brands, licenses, and other intangible assets. In addition, the contributors address the special needs of the software and pharmaceutical sectors in separate chapters. This book includes tools, metrics, and models that are of interest to academics as well as global executives. Recommended for valuation experts, scholars, international tax specialists, executives (especially those involved in alliance negotiations, brand equity, mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, and intellectual property management), and officials in such supranational institutions as the EU, OECD, UNCTAD, WTO, IMF, and World Bank.
