      • The Glass Slipper Literary Agency

        The Glass Slipper Literary Agency is a full-service literary agency that seeks to excavate, unearth and unveil stories that provoke, trigger, inflame, inspire and awaken, bringing diverse, marginalized and globally appealing voices to the world. We work with authors and publishers across the Americas, Europe, UK, and South Asia. We aim to change the face of the publishing industry by increasing diversity and evoking marginalized and underrepresented voices, including BIPOC,  LGBTQIA, neurodivergent, and/or differently-abled authors.   We proactively nurture writers across the world and take them through every stage of the roller-coaster that is intrinsic to getting published and/or having your work optioned for on-screen adaptation spanning films, TV shows, web series, and more. We believe in developing and furthering the careers of our authors, also helping them build a solid presence across all traditional and non-traditional media, worldwide. Beyond the contours of traditional representation to publishers, we brainstorm potential new projects, orchestrate all book rights for our clients, including translation, republication and entertainment rights, and actively pitch our authors and their works for slots in prime TV shows, print and electronic media outlets, including but not limited to, interviews, Q&As, book reviews and longer-form features on our writers and their works.

        Compulsory Training. Preparing and blistering

        Pursuant to Art. 34 ApBetrO

        by Manuela Queckenberg

        If medicines are prepared or blistered in advance, this not only saves time during the course of nursing care but also prevents medication errors. Section 34 of the German Ordinance on the Operation of a Pharmacy (ApBetrO) regulates the procedure and at the same time stipulates staff training. This is the perfect tool to use! The whole field of preparing and blistering, presented on 43 slides: - Basics: definitions and statutory requirements - Requirements: rooms, staff, hygiene, and occupational safety and health - Prerequisites: quality and plausibility - Drug products: whitelist and blacklist - Manufacture: from deblistering to labelling The content of the 2nd edition has been updated. The volume now contains many new photos and illustrations. Training slides, explanatory text and the form for documenting the training can be found as usual on the tabletop display and for download. Whether new employees or old hands – everyone benefits!

        Britain in China

        by Robert Bickers

        This is a study of Britain's presence in China both at its peak, and during its inter-war dissolution in the face of assertive Chinese nationalism and declining British diplomatic support. Using archival materials from China and records in Britain and the United States, the author paints a portrait of the traders, missionaries, businessmen, diplomats and settlers who constituted "Britain-in-China", challenging our understanding of British imperialism there. Bickers argues that the British presence in China was dominated by urban settlers whose primary allegiance lay not with any grand imperial design, but with their own communities and precarious livelihoods. This brought them into conflict not only with the Chinese population, but with the British imperial government. The book also analyzes the formation and maintenance of settler identities, and then investigates how the British state and its allies brought an end to the reign of freelance, settler imperialism on the China coast. At the same time, other British sectors, missionary and business, renegotiated their own relationship with their Chinese markets and the Chinese state and distanced themselves from the settler British.
