Have you ever wondered why that 13-digit number on the back of a book costs $125 in the United States but is completely free in Canada and India? This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books. The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market. Disclaimer: This handbook is an independently produced resource for commentary and analysis. The author has no affiliation with the International ISBN Agency, R.R. Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency.

Haunting Adeline (Cat and Mouse Duet)

H. D. Carlton • 2021

"The Manipulator. I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh. But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow. I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away. I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. The way she undresses... I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let her go. Not even when she begs me to." --

Una noche loca en Las Vegas puede cambiarlo todo...</b><br> <br> <b>Kennedy</b><br> <br> Soy la única mujer de la plantilla de los Windy City Warriors, y después de lidiar durante años con el machista de mi jefe, tengo muchísimas ganas de que llegue el año que viene para estar en el puesto en el que siempre he soñado con un equipo nuevo. Lo único que debo hacer es mantener mi reputación profesional durante mi última temporada en Chicago.<br> <br> Pero un encuentro en Las Vegas con el jugador estrella del equipo lo amenaza todo, dejándome con el difuso recuerdo de un anillo en mi mano izquierda.<br> <br> Ahora no solo estoy legalmente unida al hombre más persistente que he conocido en la vida, sino que tengo que fingir que todo fue una escapada planeada y no un error cometido por culpa del alcohol.<br> <br> Isaiah es temerario, impulsivo y frustrantemente encantador. También es mi flamante nuevo marido.<br> <br> <b>Isaiah</b><br> <br> Como jugador del equipo profesional de béisbol de Chicago, no me han faltado las citas.

Have you ever wondered why that 13-digit number on the back of a book costs $125 in the United States but is completely free in Canada and India? This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books. The ISBN is the most important cornerstone of the publishing industry. It started as a simple warehouse tool in the 1960s. Now, it is a complex digital identifier used in over 200 countries. This handbook deconstructs the entire system. It uses 15 distinct national case studies to do this. You will learn how the old 10-digit system changed to the new 13-digit one. We break down the five parts of the ISBN, from the "Bookland" prefix to the final check digit. The book explores the global governance framework, starting with the International ISBN Agency. Then, it dives deep into how different countries run their systems. You'll see the privatized, high-cost model in the United States. You'll compare it to Canada's free, government-run system. We explore the industry-led models in Brazil and Germany. We look at government-run systems in Mexico and India. We even cover the unique case of China, where the ISBN is not a simple identifier but a state-controlled publication license. The book also examines the systems in the UK , France , Russia , Japan , Australia , South Africa , Nigeria , and Egypt. Many books and websites can tell you how to get an ISBN. This handbook is the only resource that explains why the process is so different everywhere you look. It moves beyond a simple "how-to" and provides a true global analysis. It directly compares the privatized, for-profit models in the US and UK against the free, public-good systems in Canada and South Africa. You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market.

Bowker, Library and Archives Canada, the National Press and Publication Administration, or any other national ISBN agency.

You won't just learn the price; you will understand the cultural policies, market structures, and legal philosophies that shape that price. This book shows how the ISBN is a "global mirror". It reveals how a simple number can be a commercial product in one nation , a tool of cultural policy in another , and an instrument of state control in a third. This comparative insight is the missing piece for any author, publisher, or researcher trying to navigate the complex international publishing market.

This book, The Global ISBN Handbook, is your 2025 guide to the International Standard Book Number. It explains everything about this global "fingerprint" for books.

The Jasad Heir

Sara Hashem • 2023

"A remarkable, razor-sharp debut that cuts straight to the heart."―Chelsea Abdullah, author of The Stardust Thief A fugitive queen strikes a bargain with her greatest enemy that could resurrect her scorched kingdom or leave it in ashes forever in this unmissable, slow-burn, Egyptian-inspired epic fantasy debut. Ten years ago, the kingdom of Jasad burned. Its magic was outlawed. Its royal family murdered. At least, that’s what Sylvia wants people to believe. The Heir of Jasad escaped the massacre, and she intends to stay hidden, especially from the armies of Nizahl that continue to hunt her people. But a moment of anger changes everything. When Arin, the Nizahl Heir, tracks a group of Jasadi rebels to her village, Sylvia accidentally reveals her magic—and captures his attention. Now Sylvia’s forced to make a deal with her greatest enemy: Help him hunt the rebels in exchange for her life. A deadly game begins. Sylvia can’t let Arin discover her identity, even as hatred shifts into something more between the Heirs. And as the tides change around her, Sylvia will have to choose between the life she wants and the one she abandoned. The scorched kingdom is rising, and it needs a queen. Praise for The Jasad Heir: "Will have you turning pages in a frenzy." ―Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun "The type of mythological and romantic tale you would bargain your last breath for... A book that coils you into its serpentine grasp." ―Observer The Scorched Throne The Jasad Heir

The Jasad Crown

Sara Hashem • 2025

<b>In the thrilling conclusion to the Egyptian-inspired Scorched Throne duology, a fugitive queen must risk everything and everyone she loves for the chance to restore her lost kingdom of Jasad.</b><br>  <br> Held deep in a mountain refuge, Sylvia has been captured by the Urabi, who believe the Jasad Heir can return their homeland to its former power. But after years of denying her legacy and a forbidden alliance with Jasad’s greatest enemy, Sylvia must win the Urabi’s trust while struggling to hide the dangerous side effects her magic is having on her mind.<br><br> In a rival kingdom, Arin must maneuver carefully between his father's desire to put down the brewing rebellion and the sacred edicts Arin is sworn to uphold. He is determined to find Sylvia before it's too late, but Arin's search unravels secrets that threaten the very core of his beliefs about his family and the destruction of Jasad. <br>  <br> War is inevitable, but Sylvia cannot abandon her people again. The Urabi plan to raise the Jasadi fortress, and it will either kill Sylvia or destroy the humanity she's fought so hard to protect. For the first time in her life Sylvia doesn’t just want to survive. She wants to win.<br>  <br> The fugitive queen is ready to reign.<br><br>

Cuando Rhys y Ginger se conocen en las calles de la ciudad de la luz, no imaginan que sus vidas se unirán para siempre, a pesar de la distancia y de que no puedan ser más diferentes.

Pero ¿qué ocurre cuando el paso del tiempo pone a prueba su relación? ¿Es posible colgarse de la luna junto a otra persona sin poner en riesgo el corazón? Una historia sobre el amor, el destino y la búsqueda de uno mismo. Porque a veces, solo hace falta mirar la luna para sentirte cerca de otra persona. No hay nada más eterno que un encuentro fugaz.

La hipótesis del amor

Ali Hazelwood • 2022

YA A LA VENTA 9ª EDICIÓN<br/>LA COMEDIA ROMÁNTICA MÁS ESPERADA DEL AÑO QUE HA CAUSADO SENSACIÓN EN TIKTOK.<br/>Una relación falsa entre dos científicos se topa con la irresistible fuerza de la atracción.<br/>Olive Smith es una doctoranda de tercer año que no cree en las relaciones amorosas duraderas, pero su mejor amiga, Ahn, sí, y por eso Olive se ha metido en un lío monumental. A Ahn le gusta el exnovio de Olive, pero jamás daría el primer paso porque es una buena amiga. A Olive no le va a resultar nada fácil convencerla de que ha pasado página, puesto que los científicos necesitan pruebas. Por eso, como cualquier mujer con un mínimo de amor propio, se deja llevar por el pánico y besa al primer hombre con el que se encuentra para que Ahn la vea.<br/>Ese hombre es nada más y nada menos que Adam Carlsen, un joven profesor tan reputado por la calidad de su trabajo como por su imbecilidad. Así que Olive se queda de piedra cuando Carlsen accede a mantener su farsa en secreto y ser su novio falso. Sin embargo, después de que un importante congreso científico se convierta en un desastre y Adam vuelva a sorprenderla con su apoyo inquebrantable (y sus inquebrantables abdominales), su pequeño experimento se acerca peligrosamente al punto de combustión. Olive no tarda en descubrir que la única cosa más complicada que una hipótesis sobre el amor es analizar su propio corazón bajo el microscopio.

Cómo resolver un asesinato (antes que tu ex)

Samuel Gómez • 2025

¿QUÉ ES EL AMOR SIN UN POCO DE MISTERIO? Unas vacaciones de ensueño. Un asesino que anda suelto. Una apuesta disparatada. «Original, adictiva y divertidísima. Lo tiene todo para convertirse en una de tus mejores lecturas del año». INES GARBER UNAS VACACIONES DE ENSUEÑO Antes de su ruptura nada amistosa, Mario y Eric reservaron un viaje a un resort de lujo que prometía una semana en el paraíso. Pero Mario necesita olvidar a su ex de una vez por todas, y, en un impulso, se marcha solo para superarlo. Lo que no sabe es que Eric ha tenido la misma idea... UN ASESINO QUE ANDA SUELTO Sin embargo, hay una cosa peor que coincidir con tu ex de vacaciones: encontrarte con un cadáver. Ahora que el hotel se ha convertido en la escena de un crimen, nadie puede entrar... ni salir. UNA APUESTA DISPARATADA Si hay algo que siempre ha unido a Mario y a Eric es su pasión por los crímenes reales. Así que deciden enfrentarse a la situación como solo ellos saben hacerlo: retándose para ver quién descubre primero al asesino. Dos exnovios que no se soportan en un entorno paradisiaco donde todos son sospechosos... A medida que la investigación avance, ambos deberán replantearse muchas cosas, incluso ese odio mutuo que están seguros de sentir.
