New Releases by Sarah Ferguson

Problem-based instruction (PBI) is a research-based, student-centered instructional strategy that uses rich mathematical tasks to connect students’ previously acquired math knowledge to new mathematical concepts. Unlike traditional teaching and learning strategies, PBI facilitates learning by making connections between mathematical concepts and real-world applications rather than through noncontextual, rote learning of skills, steps, and equations. This practical resource is an informative instructional tool for secondary mathematics teachers and teacher educators seeking to deepen their students’ understanding of, and engagement with, mathematical learning. Highlighting both teacher and student perspectives, the text provides an overview of the PBI instructional strategy that includes best practices, guidance for implementation, and 50 downloadable resources. In addition, readers will find 12 teacher-created sample lessons with prepared resources and detailed instructional guides. While written for novice PBI users, this book will enhance the instruction of teachers at all levels. Book Features: Provides 12 ready-to-use sample lesson plans aligned to the most common secondary mathematics topics. Focuses on the practical implementation of problem-based instruction specifically for middle and high school mathematics instruction. Includes a template to guide readers step-by-step through creating their own problem-based lessons. Contains links to more than 50 editable, online resources for easy classroom implementation.

Dopo il grande successo de La bussola del cuore la Duchessa di York torna con una saga storica travolgente, romantica, da leggere tutta d''un fiato. "L''ha fatto di nuovo, e scommetto che questo avrà ancora più successo." Jeffrey Archer “Un''allegra e romantica storia d''amore e intrighi nell''aristocratica Scozia vittoriana. Non sono riuscita a staccarmi dal romanzo affascinante e ricco di dettagli di Sarah Ferguson, perché è molto divertente.” Dama Joan Collins “Una storia d''amore meravigliosa e colorata, ben studiata, ben realizzata e ricca di dettagli storici. Insomma, un''altra seducente lettura della Duchessa di York.” - Sir Julian Fellowes, autore di Downton Abbey e The Gilded Age Inghilterra, 1872 Dai confini scozzesi a Londra, il viaggio di una donna alla scoperta di sé e, infine, dell''amore. Lady Mary Montagu Douglas Scott, la figlia più giovane degli amici intimi della Regina Vittoria, è all''apparenza una gentildonna perfetta, ma in realtà anche un''acuta osservatrice e una studiosa oltremodo intelligente. Negli anni ha deliberatamente creato un''immagine di sé facile da ignorare e ancora più da sottovalutare, la copertura perfetta per indagare nelle dimore più eleganti dell''alta società...

Angleterre, 1872 Aux yeux de tous, lady Mary est une jeune femme discrète, timide et effacée, qui préfère la compagnie des livres à celle des gens. Mais derrière cette façade sans artifices se cache un esprit affûté, un sens du détail et de l''observation sans pareil, qui font de l''aristocrate la détective la plus efficace de toute l''Angleterre. Et c''est vers elle que se tournent ses pairs lorsqu''un vol ou une effraction met leur réputation en danger. Mieux que la police, lady Mary saura faire preuve d''autant de diligence que de discrétion. Du moins, tant qu''elle réussit à se concentrer... Or, le colonel Walter Trefusis, rencontré aux portes de l''Ecosse, est la plus envoûtante des distractions. Cet ex-soldat distingué et séduisant cache bien des secrets lui aussi, et pourrait se révéler être la plus fascinante des énigmes...

Uma história de autodescoberta, coragem e amor, inspirada na família e na história de Sarah Ferguson, Duquesa de York. A Londres vitoriana era famosa pelos seus carteiristas, mas também por ladrões de arte e vigaristas que atacavam os ricos e nobres nas casas de campo da elite. Estas vítimas, porém, com o orgulho e reputação em jogo, nunca iriam à polícia. Do que elas precisavam era de um membro da sociedade, discreto e com poderes de observação aguçados. Lady Mary Montagu Douglas Scott é essa pessoa. Movendo-se despercebida por entre os salões de baile e palácios da Rainha Vitória, a sua perspicácia permite-lhe resolver os crimes da sociedade, recuperar dinheiro e joias roubadas, e socorrer aqueles cuja reputação e fortuna estão em perigo. Ao conhecer o Coronel Walter Trefusis, distinto e charmoso veterano de guerra, forma-se uma improvável aliança. Mary, todavia, não descobriu só o parceiro de investigação perfeito: encontrou uma alma gémea. E enquanto luta contra as expetativas da sociedade e da sua família, percebe que tem de seguir o coração — custe o que custar... Os elogios da crítica: «Um romance maravilhoso, bem investigado, bem escrito e rico em detalhes históricos. Mais uma encantadora leitura da Duquesa de York.» Sir Julian Fellowes «Uma combinação superior de mistério e romance que nos apresenta Lady Mary Montagu Douglas Scott, saturada das restrições às mulheres, típicas da sua época. Um retrato ardiloso das lutas de uma mulher autónoma que se empodera para alcançar o seu próprio potencial.» Publishers Weekly «Tendo como pano de fundo a vida da classe alta vitoriana, uma jovem discreta acaba por revelar-se uma talentosa detetive. A autora evoca de forma rica as propriedades, festas, casas e diversões do período vitoriano.» Kirkus Reviews «Um romance histórico cheio de mistério e com muita paixão, como seria de esperar da Duquesa de York. Um triunfo!» Roma Downey, Atriz, produtora e autora bestseller do New York Times «Uma divertida e romântica história de amor e intriga na Escócia vitoriana aristocrata. Este romance incrivelmente detalhado de Sarah Ferguson manteve-me a virar as páginas. Muito divertido.» Dama Joan Collins «A Duquesa conseguiu uma proeza, mais uma vez! E aposto que esta será ainda mais bem-sucedida.» Jeffrey Archer

Book 3 in The Southport Origin Series by Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER From Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, a sweeping, romantic compulsively readable historical saga about a Duke’s daughter—the perfect Victorian lady—who secretly moonlights as an amateur sleuth for high society’s inner circle. Victorian London was notorious for its pickpockets. But in the country houses of the elite, gentleman burglars, art thieves and con men preyed on the rich and titled. Wealthy victims—with their pride and reputation at stake—would never go to the police. What they needed was a society insider, one of their own, a person of discretion and finely tuned powers of observation, adept at navigating intrigue. That person was Lady Mary Montagu Douglas Scott, the youngest child of Queen Victoria’s close friends the Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch. Bookish, fiercely intelligent, and a keen observer, Mary has deliberately cultivated a mousey persona that allows her to remain overlooked and significantly underestimated by all. It’s the perfect cover for a sleuth, a role she stumbles into when trying to assist a close friend during a house party hosted by her parents at their stately Scottish home, Drumlanrig Castle. It is at this party where Lady Mary also meets Colonel Walter Trefusis, a distinguished and extremely handsome war veteran. Tortured by memories of combat, Walter, like Mary, lives a double life, with a desk job in Whitehall providing a front for his role in the British Intelligence Service. The two form an unlikely alliance to solve a series of audacious crimes—and indulge in a highly charged on-off romance. Pacy, romantic, and fun, A Most Intriguing Lady documents one remarkable woman’s ability to be both the perfect lady, and a perfectly talented detective...and, of course, to find love too.

London, 1865 A szabadszellemű Lady Margaret Montagu Douglas Scott a nőktől alkalmazkodást elváró társadalom ellen lázadva fittyet hány a korlátoknak és a számára elrendezett házasságnak.De a szülei, Buccleuch hercege és hercegnéje, Viktória királynő bizalmas barátai kénytelenek eltűrni a lányuk impulzív természete miatti társadalmi megrovást, és a jó társaság kiveti magából Lady Margaretet. Margaret azonban erőt merít hozzá hasonlóan szabadszellemű társaiból, köztük Viktória királynő lányából, Louise hercegnőből, és elindul az önmegismerés rögös útján, melynek során eljut Írországba, Amerikába, majd visszatér Angliába, hogy olyan életet harcoljon ki magának, amit mindig is élnie kellett volna, és megtalálja a szerelmet, ami rá vár. A hercegné Marguerite Kaye-vel, a szerzőtársával regényesen dolgozza fel üknagynénje, Lady Margaret Montagu Douglas Scott életét a saját családtörténetében végzett kutatások és az önmaga nem mindennapi élettörténete alapján. Történelmi részletekben gazdag, a viktoriánus udvar szalonjaiban, és a nagy ír és skót vidéki kastélyokban játszódó regény, A szív iránytűje egy lélegzetelállító romantikus történet arról a merészségről, amivel egy fiatal nő mindennel szembeszállva a szíve parancsát követi. "Sarah Ferguson yorki hercegné letehetetlen regény írt egy fiatal nőről, aki a viktoriánus kor gúzsba kötő társadalmi szokásai ellen lázad, hogy rátaláljon a saját útjára, és meglelje a szerelmet.

Escrito por Sarah Ferguson, Duquesa de York e uma das mais famosas ex-integrantes da família real britânica, este é um romance fascinante sobre a jornada de autodescoberta de Lady Margaret, uma jovem nobre inspirada em uma integrante da família de Ferguson, que descreve detalhadamente a vida na alta e baixa sociedade da Inglaterra vitoriana. Lady Margaret Montagu Scott é a segunda filha do duque e da duquesa de Buccleuch, amiga íntima da rainha Vitória. Em um ambiente repressivo onde as mulheres são, literalmente, enjauladas em espartilhos e obrigadas a se conformar, Margaret é exatamente o oposto do que a sociedade espera dela – uma garota corajosa, impulsiva, sincera e ambiciosa. Quando seus pais organizam um casamento social para ela, ela tenta se conformar com a ideia. Mas pouco antes de seu noivado ser anunciado, Margaret foge e seus pais se veem obrigados a explicar sua súbita ausência para o opulento salão de baile lotado com duzentos convidados ilustres. Banida da alta sociedade, Margaret se joga em trabalhos de caridade e encontra força em um círculo de amigas como ela – mulheres que querem quebrar padrões, incluindo a filha da rainha Vitória, a princesa Luísa. Margaret resolve seguir seu coração – parte em uma jornada de autodescoberta que a levará à Irlanda, Nova York e depois de volta à Grã-Bretanha, onde ela encontra a vida que sempre deveria levar. Uma história ousada e bem pensada sobre uma mulher rebelde que encontra a si mesma e sua voz em uma era de mudanças tecnológicas surpreendentes e grande agitação social – um delicioso romance histórico rico em atmosfera, história e cor.

Australians came to the ABC''s The Killing Season in droves, their fascination with the brutal Rudd - Gillard struggle as enduring as the saga itself. This is the book that brings you the uncut version of The Killing Season, taking you behind the cameras to reveal the untold stories and candid moments that didn''t go to air. For the first time a more complete version of the truth is revealed. Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard dominate the drama as they strain to claim the narrative of Labor''s years in power. Rudd gives his painful account of the period and recalls in vivid detail the events of losing the prime ministership. Gillard is frank and unsparing of her colleagues. More than a hundred people were interviewed for The Killing Season - ministers, backbenchers, staffers, party officials, pollsters and public servants - Gillard governments and then brought them undone. It is a daming portrait of a party at war with itself - of the personal rivalries and bitter defeats that have come to define the Rudd - Gillard era. It is also a remarkable insight into the work of Sarah Ferguson, one of Australia''s top journalists.

Australians came to the ABC''s The Killing Season in their droves, their fascination with the Rudd-Gillard struggle as unfinished as the saga itself. Rudd and Gillard dominate the drama as they strain to claim the narrative of Labor''s years in power. The journey to screen for each of their interviews is telling in itself. Kevin Rudd gives his painful account of the period and recalled in vivid detail the events of losing the prime ministership. Julia Gillard is frank and unsparing of her colleagues. More than a hundred people were interviewed for The Killing Season—ministers, backbenchers, staffers, party officials, pollsters and public servants—recording their vivid accounts of the public and private events that made the Rudd and Gillard governments and then brought them undone. It is a damning portrait of a party at war with itself: the personal rivalries and the bitter defeats that have come to define the Rudd-Gillard era. "The making of The Killing Season matched the drama on screen and that''s a story we wanted to tell. And now we have a place for the episodes of rich material we could have put into a 5-part series." — Sarah Ferguson
