Damaged Goods

Karen Sherburne is a hardworking single mom and social worker. Hoping to make more time for her daughter, Meg, she commits to cutting back on her fifty-hour workweek. Not long after this decision, Meg is murdered and no suspect can be found. In her grief, Karen becomes obsessed with one goal: find the killer; kill the killer. When she returns to work, Karen is assigned a new case: fifteen-year-old Frankie Ortiz, an abuse victim. Through adoption, Karen hopes to save Frankie as she could not save her own daughter. Meanwhile, Kendra Bruno uses witchcraft in an attempt to discover the parents who abandoned her. Instead of finding her parents, a figure appears in Kendra's bedroom mirror: a figure belonging to the ghost of Karen's daughter, Meg. As the lives of Karen, Frankie, and Kendra intersect, secrets are revealed from an unforeseen source. Meg has a message not only for her mother but for Kendra, too and Karen might be the only person who can save Frankie from a horrific fate. When Karen finally discovers her daughter's killer, will she be able to stick to her vow of vengeance, or will her newfound relationships shake her resolve?

Damaged Goods By: Darlene Krug Over the last two years, Darlene Krug has been encouraged by several women to write her story. As she was completing this memoir, she read about a woman in Denmark who wanted to be legally euthanized because she considered herself terminally ill due to childhood abuse. This gave Krug the impetus to place her book out in the world in hopes that her experiences might give knowledge and power to others. In this Damaged Goods, Darlene Krug recalls difficult memories of her abusive childhood as the scapegoat for her malignant narcissist mother. She recounts the events that led her into a codependent marriage to a covert narcissist. Her childhood caused so much trauma that she lived almost twenty-eight years with a covert narcissist, and nearly cost her the loss of everything, including her life. It took two significant events—her mother's death and her second husband's devious rejection—for her to finally make the transition from victim to survivor. During both events, Krug experienced what she refers to as "the Eyes of Satan,” or the psychopathic stare.

This textbook presents 122 exercises on industrial organization with detailed answer keys. While most textbooks on industrial organization focus on theory and empirical findings, this textbook offers practical examples and exercises helping predict firm behaviour in different industries. The book emphasizes the game-theoretic tools used in each type of exercise, so students can systematically apply them to other markets, forms of competition, or information environments where firms, consumers, and regulating agencies interact. The book begins with examples that analyse different models of firm behavior and interaction; starting with monopoly and moving through the Cournot model of simultaneous quantity competition, the Bertrand model simultaneous price competition, and sequential competition. The following chapters apply game-theoretic tools to situations of increasing complexity: regulation; R&D incentives; mergers and collusion; bundling incentives; incomplete information, signalling, and competition; networks and switching costs. In addition to providing algebraic simplifications, some chapters also offer the unique feature of worked exercises based on published journal articles by leading scholars in the field. Finally, exercises are ranked according to their difficulty, with a letter (A-C) next to the exercise number, which allows students to pace their studies and instructors to structure their classes accordingly. Providing a rigorous, yet practical introduction to the field of industrial organization, this textbook is appropriate for advanced undergraduate and graduate students in economics and finance.
