Wetlands and the deserts of fire

All our states have wetlands. But the wetlands in the Chihuahuan, Great Basin, Mojave and Sonoran deserts play a much more important role than wetlands in the east. For northern birds and mountain animals migrate down south to these deserts for food, mating and water. They can't count on water from rainfall. The area's so hot rain dries back into the air. That's exactly why they're called deserts. The original word in Latin means abandoned or forsaken. And deserts have been abandoned or forsaken by water. <br /> <br />But that's in terms of rain water. In fact, these deserts have water. The water's found in areas called wetlands. Wetland water comes from three sources. One's mountain snow melting in spring and fall. Much of that water stays in mountain bogs, lakes and ponds dammed by beavers. But some always trickles into the deserts during the summer. Another's the underground water table. That's becoming a problem. More cattle-grazing also means more cows drinking water. More people working, playing and living in the areas means more Americans using water. <br /> <br />The last source is area rivers, such as the Rio Grande and the San Pedro, San Juan, Escalante and Colorado rivers. All the great area rivers start out as source number 1. For they trace back to melted snow of the Cascade, Rocky, San Juan and Sierra Nevada mountains. River water's also becoming a problem. More cattle tanks, dams, reservoirs and stock ponds change river water levels and routes. Changed water levels and routes will change living conditions for area plants, bugs, birds and animals. <br /> <br />Specifically, two main types of plant communities grow up along southwest rivers. One's a mixed broadleaf of willow, walnut, sycamore, cottonwood, ash and alder. That's usually found along rocky streams. The other's a forest of cottonwoods and willows. That's usually found on flooded sand, gravel and clay plains. But non-native Russian olive in the north and tamarisk in the south are giving native cottonwoods and willows a beating. White pelicans and sandhill cranes see native trees as familiar landmarks of desert wetland homes. In fact, cottonwoods and willows are homes to more breeding birds than anywhere else in North America. Breeding birds and their babies find the healthest foods, full of proteins and vegetables, in cottonwood and willow leaves full of insects. <br /> <br />Desert wetlands make up only 3.5% of total U.S. lands. But after tropical rainforests, they're the world's second largest supporters of plant, bug, bird and animal life. Also, they're homes to 50% of all our endangered animals. It all comes down to link after link between native plants, bugs, birds and animals built up over time in one area. <br /> <br />Photographer Lucien Niemeyer and writer Thomas Lowe Fleischner have come up with an impressive book. The writing's clearly organized. The photographs are stunning. The examples are to-the-point. The last chapter's followed by a list of all plants and animals covered by the book. The book ends with a helpful set of notes and a current bibliography. <br /> <br />Without drama and with supported facts, this team has given us what we need to know about that problem area where people and nature are closing in on each other. It's what Virginia Tech master gardening calls the wildlands-urban interface between people and nature. That's the big concern nowadays. And it's not going to go away.08263326175002005-07-06

A 'must' for any collection focused on ecology and desert environments

Lucien Niemeyer and Thomas Lowe Fleischner's Desert Wetlands is a 'must' for any collection focused on ecology and desert environments. 'Desert wetlands' may seem an inconsistent term, but there are indeed wetlands in the desert, as photographer Lucian Niemeyer and environmental scientist Thomas Fleischner demonstrate. While Niemeyer photographs such wetlands in Arizona, Utah and New Mexico, among other states, naturalist Fleischner provides stories about water and his encounters with desert wetlands during his field research in the southwest.Water plays different roles in the desert. It appears when we least expect it and hides when we want it most. Rain falls but never reaches the ground, and dry washes abruptly become rivers. One constant holds true: water enables life. <p>In <i>Desert Wetlands</i> a distinguished photographer and a passionate naturalist document sites in the American Southwest and Mexico that are gauges to the environment. The wetlands included are Cuatro Cienegas Basin in Coahuila, Mexico, the San Pedro River in Arizona, the Escalante River in Utah, the Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico, the playas and wetlands in Arizona, the Mohave Desert in California, and the Big Bend National Park in Texas. <p>Exploration of desert wetlands—whether on foot, with photographs, or in words—involves vacillating between tremendous, uplifting beauty and great, heartbreaking degradation. We offer the images and words in your hands that you might grasp the beauty more readily, and join the chorus of voices calling for an end to despoiling of these treasurelands."—Thomas Lowe Fleischner in <i>Desert Wetlands</i> <p>Mr. Niemeyer's photography . . . is utterly superb."—<i>Southern Living</i>2082Photo Essays2020Photography1Arts & Photography1000Subjects283155Books2092Central America2087Travel2020Photography1Arts & Photography1000Subjects283155Books2100General2099United States2087Travel2020Photography1Arts & Photography1000Subjects283155Books2105West2099United States2087Travel2020Photography1Arts & Photography1000Subjects283155Books290063General290062Conservation290060Outdoors & Nature1000Subjects283155Books713514011General AAS290062Conservation290060Outdoors & Nature1000Subjects283155Books713515011General AAS290069Ecology290060Outdoors & Nature1000Subjects283155Books290073Deserts290071Ecosystems290060Outdoors & Nature1000Subjects283155Books290075Wetlands290071Ecosystems290060Outdoors & Nature1000Subjects283155Books14461Conservation14459Environment290060Outdoors & Nature1000Subjects283155Books764418Reference290060Outdoors & Nature1000Subjects283155Books16004521General13602Geography13592Earth Sciences75Science1000Subjects283155Books713695011General AAS13602Geography13592Earth Sciences75Science1000Subjects283155Books14486General14452Nature & Ecology75Science1000Subjects283155Books713705011General AAS14452Nature & Ecology75Science1000Subjects283155Books17213Ecotourism17205Specialty Travel27Travel1000Subjects283155Books3210871Travel with Pets17205Specialty Travel27Travel1000Subjects283155Books400272011Paperback394184011Mass Market401237011Trade394174011Binding (binding)388186011Refinements283155Books618083011Printed Books618072011Format (feature_browse-bin)388186011Refinements283155Books1550174045http://www.amazon.com/Desolation-Sound-Discovery-Islands-Yeadon-Jones/dp/1550174045%3FSubscriptionId%3D05ERXYTS89KFGEPQR5G2%26tag%3Dthebookrevi0b-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D15501740454040695http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51qYli5AXOL._SL75_.jpg7557http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51qYli5AXOL._SL160_.jpg160121http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51qYli5AXOL.jpg500378Anne Yeadon-JonesLaurence Yeadon-JonesPaperback9781550174045631550174045Harbour PublishingEnglishEnglishEnglish11894995USD$49.95Harbour Publishing1192Book2006-03Harbour PublishingHarbour Publishing1768987280USD$72.804000005.02115501740455002006-01-19

Excellent Guide for New Cruisers to This Area

My husband and I used this book to navigate the various anchorages around Desolation Sound and Discovery Islands this last summer. The decriptions, drawings, and photos of each area only cover a page to two pages but are very complete. The drawings illustrate the various areas one can anchor -- which was really helpful. We travel with a dog so we always looked for spots that gave us easy access to the shore for doggy visits. I would recommend this book to any traveler to this area! 15501740455332001-02-06

The Shifting Sand of Immigration politics

My friends at CHIRLA gave me this book and at 300 pages of small print it looked intimidating so I put off reading it for a few weeks. When I finally picked it up I found it to be well organized, informative and a compelling read. <br /> <br />Tichenor tells the history of immigration politics in the America by showing the shifting alliances of groups and their interest in the level of immigration and the rights that should be given to immigrants. He uses a simple two by two grid throughout the book to illustrate this changing alliance. For instance the labor movement went from pro-immigrant around 1890 to anti-immigrant for most of the 20th century and became pro-immigrant again in the 1980's. <br /> <br />Dividing Lines also shows difference in the politics of legislation versus enforcement and between what the public says they want and what the politicians actually enact. For instance the book shows why we have laws mandating employer sanctions and yet we have almost no enforcement of those laws by the executive branch. <br /> <br />This book is an excellent read about the politics of immigration and should be considered by everyone who wants to understand the current state of immigration politics. <br />B001CBMWSE5002005-04-20

Well-written and engaging

This book will be useful to students of immigration, history, and political science. Tichenor shows us the complex set of connections between political institutions, interest groups, and political actors that combined to produce policy outcomes. <br /> <br />One of his most interesting findings regards the unusual fact that while most Americans favor tighter restrictions on immigration, politicians nowadays rarely enact such laws. Instead they usually increase immigration levels despite broad public opposition. Tichenor argues that this is because a "policy regime" has been structured over time, encompassing the immigration committees in both houses of Congress, and including the preferences of strong pro-immigration interest groups, that pushes for liberalization of immigration laws. <br /> <br />Only rarely in American history do restrictionists succeed in limiting immigration, most notably from the 1920's until the landmark 1964 law that set off the wave of immigrants from Latin America and Asia we still experience today. Tichenor's work is easily accessible, well-written, and thought provoking.<p>Immigration is perhaps the most enduring and elemental leitmotif of America. This book is the most powerful study to date of the politics and policies it has inspired, from the founders' earliest efforts to shape American identity to today's revealing struggles over Third World immigration, noncitizen rights, and illegal aliens. Weaving a robust new theoretical approach into a sweeping history, Daniel Tichenor ties together previous studies' idiosyncratic explanations for particular, pivotal twists and turns of immigration policy. He tells the story of lively political battles between immigration defenders and doubters over time and of the transformative policy regimes they built.</p><p>Tichenor takes us from vibrant nineteenth-century politics that propelled expansive European admissions and Chinese exclusion to the draconian restrictions that had taken hold by the 1920s, including racist quotas that later hampered the rescue of Jews from the Holocaust. American global leadership and interest group politics in the decades after World War II, he argues, led to a surprising expansion of immigration opportunities. In the 1990s, a surge of restrictionist fervor spurred the political mobilization of recent immigrants. Richly documented, this pathbreaking work shows that a small number of interlocking temporal processes, not least changing institutional opportunities and constraints, underlie the turning tides of immigration sentiments and policy regimes. Complementing a dynamic narrative with a host of helpful tables and timelines, Dividing Lines is the definitive treatment of a phenomenon that has profoundly shaped the character of American nationhood.</p>B000QZ8PGUB000SRGFN6B001C6QX34B001BZRUKQB0013ZCNG01000Subjects1Arts & Photography2Biographies & Memoirs3Business & Investing4Children's Books4366Comics & Graphic Novels5Computers & Internet6Cooking, Food & Wine86Entertainment301889Gay & Lesbian10Health, Mind & Body9History48Home & Garden10777Law17Literature & Fiction13996Medicine18Mystery & Thrillers53Nonfiction290060Outdoors & Nature20Parenting & Families173507Professional & Technical21Reference22Religion & Spirituality23Romance75Science25Science Fiction & Fantasy26Sports28Teens27Travel283155Books618073011Kindle Books618072011Format (feature_browse-bin)388186011Refinements283155Books157426011Public Policy157417011Government157325011Nonfiction154606011Kindle Books133141011Categories133140011Kindle Store157498011Emigration & Immigration157488011Social Sciences157325011Nonfiction154606011Kindle Books133141011Categories133140011Kindle Store157487011U.S. Politics305951011Politics & Current Events154606011Kindle Books133141011Categories133140011Kindle StoreB000QE5MDUhttp://www.amazon.com/Doing-Business-Newly-Privatized-Markets/dp/B000QE5MDU%3FSubscriptionId%3D05ERXYTS89KFGEPQR5G2%26tag%3Dthebookrevi0b-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB000QE5MDU118266http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/518gnT4OYqL._SL75_.jpg7551http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/518gnT4OYqL._SL160_.jpg160108http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/518gnT4OYqL.jpg475320Russell R.

Miller knows his stuff

A hot topic covered by someone who really knows the business. Tells the whole story, including the challenges. The complex topic of privitization is detailed and thought provoking. Takes the topic of international business to new depths.B000QE5MDU5112000-10-07

Interesting and informative look at privatized companies

I enjoyed Miller's book because it examines privatization from a business perspective rather than the usual view of government agencies and multilateral organizations. He clearly describes the relative risks and rewards of dealing with former government owned firms and the strategies that produce the best results.International marketing consultant Russell Miller takes a close, pragmatic look at the movement to privatization that is sweeping the important markets of Western and Central Europe, Latin America, and Asia, and lays out the business opportunities and challenges that U.S. corporations and others worldwide will find there. He identifies the market dynamics created by newly privatized companies, the problems of reaching them, and the approach strategies that U.S. and other companies would find most productive, such as the creation of strategic alliances, enterprise restructurings, expanded technical relationships, and export market development. He also identifies the methods, objectives, and locations of leading privatization programs. The result is a rich, useful study of the vast new markets now opening up worldwide, and insights into how corporations here and abroad can access them and benefit from them. Essential reading for top-level executives in corporations with aspirations abroad, and for their marketing, strategic planning, and international business development staffs. During the past decade, thousands of former state-controlled companies in more than 100 different countries have entered the private sector. These firms range in size and commercial significance from small family-owned kiosks in Russia to some of the largest, most influential corporations in Western and Central Europe, Latin America, and Asia. Miller provides a comprehensive, business-oriented perspective on the origin and geographic expansion of the privatization movement, and describes the methods that governments use and the objectives they hope to achieve in the divestment of state assets. He identifies the formative influences on these new companies, as well as the operating needs created by the privatization process. Privatization-intensive markets are examined in relation to their importance, type of companies involved, and the challenges they present. Miller's book also discusses alternate methods of market expansion, such as reaching newly privatized firms through a strategic marketing program. His book will be essential reading for academicians and graduate students in international business and world trade, as well as their practitioner counterparts in corporations and multilateral development agencies.1000Subjects1Arts & Photography2Biographies & Memoirs3Business & Investing4Children's Books4366Comics & Graphic Novels5Computers & Internet6Cooking, Food & Wine86Entertainment301889Gay & Lesbian10Health, Mind & Body9History48Home & Garden10777Law17Literature & Fiction13996Medicine18Mystery & Thrillers53Nonfiction290060Outdoors & Nature20Parenting & Families173507Professional & Technical21Reference22Religion & Spirituality23Romance75Science25Science Fiction & Fantasy26Sports28Teens27Travel283155Books618073011Kindle Books618072011Format (feature_browse-bin)388186011Refinements283155Books154857011Economic Policy & Development154849011Economics154821011Business & Investing154606011Kindle Books133141011Categories133140011Kindle Store154939011General154937011International154821011Business & Investing154606011Kindle Books133141011Categories133140011Kindle Store154954011Management154949011Management & Leadership154821011Business & Investing154606011Kindle Books133141011Categories133140011Kindle Store0738530891http://www.amazon.com/Downtown-Everett-WA-Images-America/dp/0738530891%3FSubscriptionId%3D05ERXYTS89KFGEPQR5G2%26tag%3Dthebookrevi0b-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D0738530891888693http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/516FYEFVRXL._SL75_.jpg7549http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/516FYEFVRXL._SL160_.jpg160104http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/516FYEFVRXL.jpg500324M.

Great nibble of local history

Not large, but chock full of great historic photos of Everett Washington. The writer has a witty, occasionally snarky, and always entertaining way of telling the story of town's rise from muddy lumber town to thriving port with all the oddities, foibles and horrors that came along the way. Remarkably fun and informative. Keep your eyes peeled for the "Delicate Underlovlies!" A terrific volume for the photos alone. Situated on a deep-water bay, Everett’s timber-covered peninsula was irresistible to early investors. Natural resources were abundant, and it was whispered that the Great Northern Railroad would soon make this hidden treasure its final destination. Hopes were high and money began to exchange hands. But the Panic of 1893 was right around the corner. Everett never would achieve the “big city” grandeur that Eastern speculators had originally predicted. Nevertheless, the sturdy city by Port Gardner Bay withstood financial panic, depressions, and riots to become the proud seat of Snohomish County. Once heralded as the “Pittsburgh of the West” and the “City of Smokestacks,” Everett remains a dynamic city of industry. 0295952415073854869307385489870738531030073854863415813001Pacific Northwest14278871State & Local4853United States4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books14279341Washington14278871State & Local4853United States4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books15812991West14278871State & Local4853United States4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books4870General4853United States4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books713299011General AAS4853United States4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books400272011Paperback394184011Mass Market401237011Trade394174011Binding (binding)388186011Refinements283155Books618083011Printed Books618072011Format (feature_browse-bin)388186011Refinements283155Books0226422666http://www.amazon.com/Drawing-Theories-Apart-Dispersion-Diagrams/dp/0226422666%3FSubscriptionId%3D05ERXYTS89KFGEPQR5G2%26tag%3Dthebookrevi0b-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D02264226662955914http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/410APE1QRWL._SL75_.jpg7550http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/410APE1QRWL._SL160_.jpg160107http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/410APE1QRWL.jpg500335David KaiserHardcover530.0973090497802264226641300226422666University Of Chicago PressEnglishEnglishEnglish9108000USD$80.00University Of Chicago Press1376Book2005-06-15University Of Chicago PressUniversity Of Chicago Press1705907997USD$79.977997USD$79.97750011ATVPDKIKX0DERhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/help/seller/home.html?seller=ATVPDKIKX0DERNewnew9ukjHZBcMOXhOoZjdV2iYVChoYjXsMTpPXCXBu4VdGT2j0uCLVal9vooIiIVfmz%2BG7%2FOgMAK4ZYIkL%2FDHwgSBg%3D%3D8000USD$80.00Usually ships in 2 to 4 weeks5.02102264226665222007-07-05

how a compelling idea spread amongst physicists

For physicists, this book makes engaging reading. Feynman diagrams are now well established, and have been so for decades. They give crucial understanding to some very intricate equations in high energy physics. <br /> <br />Kaiser has performed some indepth historical research on the early postwar years. When Feynman had his seminal insights into how these graphical techniques could simplify a tangle of equations. Today, with a pervasive web and instantaneous email between researchers across the globe, it is a very different environment. Then, a compelling idea still primarily had to be transmitted by the traditional method of inperson presentations, like seminars and conferences and actual letters. <br /> <br />The book is as much about the sociology of science as it is about the physics devised by Feynman. Granted, key sections may be intelligible only to physicists. These delve into the physics and equations of propagators and Hamiltonians in quantum mechanics. But most of the book can be gainfully read by non-physicists, who might want more details about Richard Feynman's life. <br /> <br />Storied names of 20th century physicists are also generously scattered throughout the book. Bethe [Feynman's PhD advisor], Dyson, Gell-Mann, Salam and others.0226422666510102006-07-31

Interesting for historians, valuable for physicists

This is a very engaging book on at least two different levels: as a book about history, and as a book about physics. <br /> <br />The book is an early adopter of a couple of new and intriguing techniques in history of science. Instead of trying to identify theories or paradigms, it focuses on physicists' "paper tools" --the techniques they used for calculations. Also, it emphasizes the importance of pedagogy -- a subject's transmission through textbooks, clusters of professors/postdocs/grad students and, importantly in this case, informal contact. <br /> <br />Feynman introduced his diagrams at a small, private conference in spring 1948. He didn't publish about them until September 1949; but by then they were already widely used in studying quantum electrodynamics, albeit not well-understood. Kaiser traces the roles of Freeman Dyson and a cadre of postdocs from Princeton's IAS in spreading the diagrams on both sides of the Atlantic. As each researcher pieced together his (or occasionally her) own understanding of the diagrams, he transmitted it -- together with many idiosyncrasies -- to his students. A neat figure in the book compares the styles of diagram used by professors and students at major universities. Students tended to follow their teachers, but no two institutions had the same style. (Kaiser also traces the spread of the diagrams in Japan and Russia, two physics communities that were largely isolated from Western researchers.) <br /> <br />The result was a Balkanization of styles and interpretations of the diagrams. This had already begun with Dyson's first articles in February 1949. Feynman had viewed the diagrams as intuitively depicting the behavior of particles in spacetime. Kaiser connects the diagrams' enduring appeal to their similarity to particle tracks in bubble-chamber photos, which makes a viewer feel that the diagrams are a realistic picture of what's going on. Dyson, on the other hand, regarded them as a geometric algorithm for keeping track of terms in a perturbative expansion in QED; he was also the first to promote viewing them in an abstract, topological way. <br /> <br />These centrifugal tendencies became elaborated and diversified in the 1950s and 1960s. All sorts of new diagrams sprung up, with different kinds of lines, arrows, geometries and "blobs" -- but eventually all were called "Feynman diagrams". The uses of the diagrams also diverged, from being a tool of quantum field theory to being a tool for its (attempted) overthrow. Among many other fascinating stories, Kaiser describes the UC Berkeley "particle democracy" movement, which used geometrical permutations of the diagrams to make a case that the distinction between "elementary" and "composite" particles is false. (By similar means, the school of Lev Landau came to regard diagrams as more fundamental than field theory.) <br /> <br />Kaiser does a great job of providing the historical context of what problems each group was trying to address, including adapting the diagrams to studying QED in condensed matter as well as other QFTs, such as the strong interaction. Along the way, you'll learn a little about Regge theory, pomerons, the Mandelstam representation, the analytical S-matrix, and other approaches to QFT that still surface today in corners of the arXiv. You won't find these developments described in other histories of the period, such as Schweber's "QED" or Pais's ultra-terse "Inward Bound". Kaiser's book is indispensible for understanding diagrams in the physics literature from the 1950s and 1960s and perhaps later. (And since it's much shorter than Schweber and less oracular than Schwinger, it's a good introduction to the second half of the Dover collection of QED papers, which Schwinger edited and introduced.) <br /> <br />Readers more interested in QFT than in history might be put off by Kaiser's at times dry style, and especially by the critical theory-tinged first chapter (influenced by the science studies ramblings of Bruno Latour et al.) But don't be put off. While much of the history Kaiser describes has been forgotten, it survives in the eclectic style of "Feynman diagrams" you'll find in many textbooks today -- e.g., Itzykson & Zuber, Ryder, Mattuck, and A. Zee's recent "Nutshell", which mixes diagrammatic styles with an especially breezy abandon. In all of these, turn a few pages past the dutiful description of the 1949 Feynman-Dyson rules and you'll start seeing diagrams about QCD, or diagrams with blobs or double-arrows or other innovations, most of which won't be explained systematically. Kaiser's book will help you to decipher some of these diagrammatic puzzles. Even better, it may make you sensitive to some of the uses, interpretations, and ambiguities of diagrams that you might never have considered otherwise.<DIV>Winner of the 2007 Pfizer Prize from the History of Science Society. Feynman diagrams have revolutionized nearly every aspect of theoretical physics since the middle of the twentieth century. Introduced by the American physicist Richard Feynman (1918-88) soon after World War II as a means of simplifying lengthy calculations in quantum electrodynamics, they soon gained adherents in many branches of the discipline. Yet as new physicists adopted the tiny line drawings, they also adapted the diagrams and introduced their own interpretations. <I>Drawing Theories Apart</I> traces how generations of young theorists learned to frame their research in terms of the diagrams—and how both the diagrams and their users were molded in the process.<BR><BR>Drawing on rich archival materials, interviews, and more than five hundred scientific articles from the period, <I>Drawing Theories Apart</I> uses the Feynman diagrams as a means to explore the development of American postwar physics. By focusing on the ways young physicists learned new calculational skills, David Kaiser frames his story around the crafting and stabilizing of the basic tools in the physicist's kit—thus offering the first book to follow the diagrams once they left Feynman's hands and entered the physics vernacular.<BR></DIV> (20060101)98125638069812706615026263367118909517810804727856712989011General AAS468230History468206Humanities465600New & Used Textbooks251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books491732Physics468216Science & Mathematics465600New & Used Textbooks251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books713008011General AAS468216Science & Mathematics465600New & Used Textbooks251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books712982011General AAS465600New & Used Textbooks251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books713014011General AAS319654011Qualifying Textbooks251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books1205142General4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books713293011General AAS4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books227404General227399Physics173510Professional Science173507Professional & Technical1000Subjects283155Books713586011General AAS227399Physics173510Professional Science173507Professional & Technical1000Subjects283155Books13878History of Science13871History & Philosophy75Science1000Subjects283155Books14560General14545Physics75Science1000Subjects283155Books713708011General AAS14545Physics75Science1000Subjects283155Books13857General75Science1000Subjects283155Books713674011General AAS75Science1000Subjects283155Books394181011Hardcover394174011Binding (binding)388186011Refinements283155Books618083011Printed Books618072011Format (feature_browse-bin)388186011Refinements283155Books0520217659http://www.amazon.com/Each-Mind-Kingdom-American-1875-1920/dp/0520217659%3FSubscriptionId%3D05ERXYTS89KFGEPQR5G2%26tag%3Dthebookrevi0b-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D05202176591338093http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51V2REF92VL._SL75_.jpg7551http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51V2REF92VL._SL160_.jpg160109http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51V2REF92VL.jpg475325Beryl SatterHardcover289.98097397805202176521120520217659University of California PressEnglishEnglishEnglish9254800USD$48.00University of California Press1394Book1999-08-02University of California PressUniversity of California Press175625849USD$8.49194USD$1.947170011ATVPDKIKX0DERhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/help/seller/home.html?seller=ATVPDKIKX0DERNewnewK45QhoyzYgT0RZTpua5guxj%2FJ00%2F%2BSVyp3zQf%2BNljnvn8D2ULGLeGM%2BCuJYRUrXBdthTpzjpb7YIXUdLROg48A%3D%3D4800USD$48.00Usually ships in 2 to 4 weeks5.02105202176595002006-04-19

Interesting and Enlightening

This is a great book. I have not been able to stop reading. It does indeed read like a good novel. You will find that it explains a great deal about our Victorian heritage and some of the ideas that have shaped the present. Fascinating!0520217659512122004-12-01

Fascinating and controversial survey and time

When I began to read "Each Mind a Kingdom", I soon realized that it was that dreaded genre--the doctoral dissertation made flesh. <br />I expected the worst sort of academic exercise, in both senses of the word, and read on only because the book had a great cover and I am fascinated with New Thought ideas. <br /> <br />But "Each Mind a Kingdom" is anything but a dry academic tome. <br />It's as alive as a novel, and full of ideas and opinions. It's rather like going to a movie like "My Dinner with Andre", in which the author sets up ideas with scenarios, and then allows the ideas to subtly hover. <br /> <br />I'm not saying that I found everything in "Each Mind a Kingdom" to be a plethora of positions with which I agreed. Indeed, in many cases, I felt that Dr. Satter over-eggs the pudding, and draws conclusions beyond her citations, and, in some cases, dismisses as "ambiguous" or "unclear" those authorities which do not fit her premise. I found the omission of Elizabeth Delvine King's work, whose "purity new thought" ideas would not fit the author's "chronology" of the rise and fall of the "purity" movement, to be puzzling, and the near-dismissal of the Unity School and Religious Science to be curious in light of the far greater mainstream impact each movement had upon the culture than many of the people whom the author covers in detail. <br /> <br />Still, this book merits reading because it is a narrative voice making important points from fascinating subject matter. She introduced me to thinkers with whose work I was less familiar. More importantly, she tackles the gender rhetoric of early New Thought writings, particularly that by women, and examines the impact of the competing ways of looking at things on the broad culture. <br /> <br />Dr. Satter has three to five books of material in this work, and it is in some senses a shame that she tries to do so much. <br />Her conclusory points about Freud and modern self-help,each interesting, appear to be "toss ins" to try to "add relevance" to a work which needs no such effort. <br /> <br />But this is a fundamentally satisfying work, even though it is not free of flaws, because it has a rich sweep of ideas and characters better suited to a wonderful set of novels than to a single tome about gender imagery in New Thought. One might wish (as I do) that Dr. Satter adopted a style a little less quick to jump to conclusions and a little more willing to consider the rhetorical and metaphoric value of gender terminology (rather than the more mechanical, if fascinating,angle she takes). <br />But nonetheless, the work simply fascinates--it's a good read, with many troubling and promising lines of analysis. <br /> <br />Dr. Satter's explorations all prove quite interesting, and well worth reading, although some of her conclusions are notions with which I could not disagree more. This is perhaps a mark of a good book, though--you can dissent from the author's point of view, and yet still like the work. <br /> <br />I encourage anyone who wishes to understand the turn of the 20th Century to read this work, which offers ideas which will be both controversial, sometimes perhaps even unacceptable, but always fascinating. Well done. I wish that every dissertation read so well. <br /> <br /> <br />The New Thought Movement was an enormously popular late nineteenth-century spiritual movement led largely by and for women. Mary Baker Eddy's Christian Science is but one example of the fascinating range of these groups, which advocated a belief in mind over matter and espoused women's spiritual ability to purify the world. This work is the first to uncover the cultural implications of New Thought, embedding it in the intellectual traditions of nineteenth-century America, and illuminating its connections with the self-help and New Age enthusiasms of our own fin-de-siècle.<br>Beryl Satter examines New Thought in all its complexity, presenting along the way a captivating cast of characters. In lively and accessible prose, she introduces the people, the institutions, the texts, and the ideas that comprised the New Thought movement. This fascinating social and intellectual history explores the complex relationships among social reform, alternative religion, medicine, and psychology which persist to this day.08707402530226469700141070172715994708960300136153713279011General AAS11119Psychology & Counseling10Health, Mind & Body1000Subjects283155Books4860Turn of the Century485419th Century4853United States4808Americas9History1000Subjects283155Books15812181History of Ideas4987Historical Study9History1000Subjects283155Books713290011General AAS9History1000Subjects283155Books11260General11258Gender Studies11232Social Sciences53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books713498011General AAS11258Gender Studies11232Social Sciences53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books11334General11325Women's Studies53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books713511011General AAS11325Women's Studies53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books3043241Women's Issues12333Christian Living12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books12414Christian Science12404Protestantism12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books12244General12242Theology172810Reference12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books16009761Other Denominations & Sects12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books172813Feminist12449Theology12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books12458General12449Theology12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books713643011General AAS12449Theology12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books713626011General AAS12290Christianity22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books12504General22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books713609011General AAS22Religion & Spirituality1000Subjects283155Books394181011Hardcover394174011Binding (binding)388186011Refinements283155Books618083011Printed Books618072011Format (feature_browse-bin)388186011Refinements283155Books0814331750http://www.amazon.com/Eight-Steamboats-Sailing-Through-Sixties/dp/0814331750%3FSubscriptionId%3D05ERXYTS89KFGEPQR5G2%26tag%3Dthebookrevi0b-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D08143317501004819http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51H36KX737L._SL75_.jpg7549http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51H36KX737L._SL160_.jpg160104http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51H36KX737L.jpg500326Patrick LivingstonPaperbackNeal Shine386.50977090469780814331750700814331750Wayne State University PressEnglishEnglishEnglish9003195USD$31.95Wayne State University Press1306Book2004-08Wayne State University PressWayne State University Press1055903192USD$31.922074USD$20.741070011ATVPDKIKX0DERhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/help/seller/home.html?seller=ATVPDKIKX0DERNewnewH6gWfaj4vTeLQ8WG6Sej182TOnhn2ClRWc%2F4oKmfEEHOVugYhEYiR3hVdOCrUtBZmfx2HP1Rcsg07fypLiTErg%3D%3D3195USD$31.95Usually ships in 24 hours5.02108143317505442005-05-22

Life aboard eight Greatlakes Steamboats in the 1960's

I bought this book expecting it to be mostly about the eight steamboats but found it to be several stories in one. <br /> <br />The typical Great Lakes book focuses on the boats (ships if they were on saltwater) or things like storms on the lakes etc. This book focuses on the crew, their personalities, eccentricities, their labor (working in the kitchen on a tour boat, painting, scraping, hosing off the decks of freighters, loading and unloading), their idle time on and off the boat (drinking, exploring the ports, trying to find girls) and to a large part the author's life, feelings and struggles. This is not to say that there are not any descriptions of the boats. However the emphasis is on where the crew works and lives (the bunk rooms, engine rooms and galleys as opposed to what you see when a ship passes by). <br /> <br />The author tells his story of a bright kid from a blue-collar family working on the boats to pay his way thorough Monteith College (part of Wayne State). He relates the background of Motown music, the Bob-Lo Island amusement park, the Detroit riots and the draft. On shore we hear about his friends that have been sent to Viet Nam, others in college trying to avoid being sent there. <br /> <br />In spite of the subtitle on the front cover--Sailing Though the Sixties-I thought that this was going to be mostly about sailing on the great lakes. At first I found the discussion of the draft, Viet Nam, such as the authors coming of age etc to be an intrusion on the usual sailing book, but later felt that this was a very good story in itself. <br /> <br />This is the author's first book. It is a very well told and personal story. I would recommend it to those who are interested in Great Lakes shipping and particularly those interested in how it feels to be working on a ship. He gives a very good account of what it was like to be coming of age in the 1960's. Each chapter makes you want to read the next. Its approximately 300 pages went by quickly <br />08143317505552005-02-22

A Memoir about coming of age in the 60's

This book reads as a memoir. Anyone who came of age during the sixties, relates to the uncertainty of that period or would like to learn more will enjoy this adventure. <br />The author pulls you into his volatile world, as the youngest child in a family of eight he is as confused and free as the time he is growing up in. He seeks to escape the political and economic turmoil in Detroit, Michigan and hops aboard a freighter. <br />He chronicles the adventures he has both on-shore and off-shore and in the end it is the odd characters he meets along the way that steer him back to shore to grow up like a normal young man. <br />Livingston's book is filled with the naivety of a young person trying to find their way. In the end you will be happy that he does.In the 1960s, an era of widespread social turbulence, the shipping industry in the Great Lakes was on the threshold of Immense change. Developed during World War II, the US merchant fleet faced threatening competition from the newer Canadian fleet. The demand for iron ore skyrocketed as baby boomers matured in the age of auto and appliance buying. To meet the increasing need, there was talk of expanding the size of the Soo Locks to accommodate larger vessels and even of lengthening the shipping season. It was glaringly obvious that a time of change was upon the aging US ships and even more so upon the men who sailed them. Eight Steamboats chronicles Patrick Livingston's adventures on eight shipping vessels - only one of which survives - during the 1960s. Told from the perspective of a writer who sails rather than a sailor who writes, the tales are spiced with connections between shore and sea. While the city of Detroit burned in 1967, Livingston served milkshakes to passengers on the South American of the Georgian Bay Lines. Later, Livingston sailed with the notorious George "Bughouse" Schultz on the III-starred tanker Mercury. When financial need forced him to forgo a trip to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, he sailed Lake Michigan instead. In subsequent years, he dropped out of school to catch the mailboat to his ships as they transited the Detroit River. With lively dialogue, Livingston details his experiences up to his signing off the Champlain in 1972 and then setting sail for landlocked Nepal to work with the Peace Corps. Both maritime and Great Lakes enthusiasts will enjoy this voyage back to an earlier era in the Great Lakes shipping industry.158388153014259583891550464639081432844X0870137832712982011General AAS465600New & Used Textbooks251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books713014011General AAS319654011Qualifying Textbooks251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books2433Midwest2430Regional U.S.2Biographies & Memoirs1000Subjects283155Books11962General300362Ships300361Transportation5035World9History1000Subjects283155Books3035701History11959Ships11934Transportation53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books11960General11959Ships11934Transportation53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books713508011General AAS11959Ships11934Transportation53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books11947General11934Transportation53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books713505011General AAS11934Transportation53Nonfiction1000Subjects283155Books12051Travel12015Writing21Reference1000Subjects283155Books16252681North America27Travel1000Subjects283155Books400272011Paperback394184011Mass Market401237011Trade394174011Binding (binding)388186011Refinements283155Books618083011Printed Books618072011Format (feature_browse-bin)388186011Refinements283155Books3PTRP9V3EN0K7Great Lakes Maritime Books III958913890Xhttp://www.amazon.com/El-Sabor-Colombia-Antonio-Montana/dp/958913890X%3FSubscriptionId%3D05ERXYTS89KFGEPQR5G2%26tag%3Dthebookrevi0b-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D958913890X616475http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51BEuArlEYL._SL75_.jpg7564http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51BEuArlEYL._SL160_.jpg160136http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51BEuArlEYL.jpg500424Antonio MontanaHardcoverBenjamin VillegasGloria Mercedes DuqueHans DoringMascha Kauka641.59861978958913890897958913890XVillegas EditoresSpanishSpanishSpanish12527500USD$75.00Villegas Editores1224Book2002-12-16Villegas EditoresVillegas Editores41210264996USD$49.964996USD$49.961060011ATVPDKIKX0DERhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/help/seller/home.html?seller=ATVPDKIKX0DERNewnewAB%2BRsvYJMdl0%2Bwj%2FJ9rvLN30PXPI%2FD%2BMrbaXlqZeSDgae%2F0%2BIPwVfMHSsrBo70iKuPxPEm8IUGjgowTo4SpZ8w%3D%3D5081USD$50.81Usually ships in 24 hours5.021958913890X5002006-04-28

Sabor de Colombia

Excellent presentation and well edited. <br />The cooking recipes have been well elaborated and easy to follow to prepare typicaL colombian dishes.To those interested in the culinary art will find this book very useful.<div>Sobre el telón de fondo de las tradiciones de un pueblo se destacan nítidamente las imágenes de la fiesta, del banquete y de la celebración. No hay acontecimiento festivo o celebravtivo que no gire en torno a los buenos platos, a la mesa ricamente servida, al apetito por las delicias de una buena comida. Incluso se ha visto muchas veces la fiesta como pretexto para sentarse a la mesa. Si bien mientras aquélla discurre, el atareado ir y venir en la cocina revela otra actividad: la paciente, sabia y atenta mezcla de los ingredientes; la preparación de la comida, el cuidado de las proporciones, el balance do los sabores y la vigilancia de los platos sobre el fuego.<br><br>Es que sin duda el hecho de reunirse en familia o en grupo en torno a la comida da paso a uno de los más antiguos ritos de toda cultura y de toda civilización. Es también una manera de observar la evolución del carácter social y local, y establecer las diferencias de cada raza, región y clima.<br><br>Colombia, por su variedad geográfica y cultural, posee un amplio repertorio culinario. Heredera, como se sabe, de la tradición indígena, se mezcla en la Conquista con el recetario español, se complementa con el africano y se enriquece con el de las inmigraciones de los siglos XIX y XX. Así evoluciona con el tiempo, hasta llegar a crear un recetario que la tradición ya ha consagrado.<br><br>La cocina local se va definiendo por los elementos que el suelo provee y por aquello que el clima hace propicio. La infinita variedad de especias, frutos, verduras, legumbres y carnes, que constituye la despensa de cada zona, se traduce, mediante el fuego de la cocina, en una riqueza de sabores característicos de la región, que la hace diferente de las otras.<br><br>Este libro presenta lo más destacado del recetario popular colombiano, lo más significativo de su cultura gastronómica, por las combinaciones a que da lugar, por los acompañamientos, por la manera como son presentados e incluso, por la forma de ser servidos.<br><br>Los platos que aquí se muestran pertenecen a las ocho regiones culturales en las que se ha dividido el país para efectos de este libro, las cuales se han seleccionado luego de una amplia investigación. Las recetas han sido precisadas en sus tiempos y cantidades, mediante su elaboración, y representam lo mejor de esa sabiduría culinaria puesta a prueba a lo largo de las generaciones y que hoy constituye un elemento fundamental de nuestra cultura. Es la comida para las grandes ocasiones, para las celebraciones familiares, la expresión du una cierta abundancia, y el gusto particular que se encuentra plasmado en toda cultura gastronómica.<br><br>Las hermosas imágenes que reproduce esta obra, y que en su mayoría corresponden a su recetario, nos muestran los platos en el momento de su preparación y, en algunos casos, listos para ser servidos. Sin embargo, este libro no pretende ser solamente un libro de cocina, ya que a través du sus textos y de su fotografía complementaria podemos apreciar la belleza y las diferencias culturales de las distintas zonas geográficas del país y de sus habitantes.<br><br>Y es justamente lo que <i>"El sabor de Colombia"</i> celebra y divulga, con el claro propósito de prolongar más allá de los límites de cada región, la diversidad inagotable de la riqueza cultural, de la variedad de la comida y de la gracia de las gentes de Colombia.<br></div>0781810256307614011General301743Cocina301731Libros en español504358Formats251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books307623011Internacional307619011Regional e Internacional301743Cocina301731Libros en español504358Formats251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books307624011Latino Americana307619011Regional e Internacional301743Cocina301731Libros en español504358Formats251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books712488011General AAS307619011Regional e Internacional301743Cocina301731Libros en español504358Formats251254011Custom Stores44258011Specialty Stores283155Books<
