Book Description
The classic key to identifying native trees of the Pacific Coast, updated to reflect changes in the names of trees since publication of the first edition. Identifies native trees, and some widely introduced or naturalized species, of the Pacific Coast region, from British Columbia to Baja California. In this edition, Latin names of trees that grow in California conform to the University of California's 1993 Jepson Manual, and more recent name changes. From the Finders series of pocket guides to native plants and animals of the U.S. and Canada; like all plant guides in the series, this book uses a dichotomous key format for accurate identification.

Book Description
Ecologists increasingly find themselves called upon to address the impacts of global change on biodiversity. Yet most studies of biodiversity focus solely on intensive, experimental analyses of localized ecological communities. In Untangling Ecological Complexity, Brian A. Maurer argues for a more pluralistic approach, showing how ecologists might enhance their ability to tackle global problems by incorporating broader spatial and temporal perspectives into their research.
Maurer begins by reviewing the strengths and limitations of reductionist experimental approaches. Although these studies have produced much valuable data, their small scale restricts the kinds of inferences that can be drawn from them. Maurer then demonstrates how statistical methods can be used to identify processes (such as dispersal or nonrandom extinction) that operate across broad geographic scales, yet which also have profound impacts on local ecosystems. This macroscopic perspective, Maurer suggests, provides a powerful tool for untangling ecological complexity.

Book Description
IMMORTALITY Powered by Quaternary Medicine Code offers the world a medically feasible means of cheating death and extending anyone's life. Deciphering the Quaternary Medicine Code leads to curing viral epidemics, defeating cancers, and reversing aging. The innovative medical advances described in this fast-paced adventure-mystery are exactly what everyone is seeking.
IMMORTALITY Powered by Quaternary Medicine Code unfolds as Dr. Brenda Crosse, a bright, charismatic physician, labors tirelessly to discover a novel means to save her grandfather from an incurable cancer. Dr. Crosse develops an ingenious hybrid treatment. World leaders heatedly debate over allowing the development of a means to extend human life, to facilitate Mankind reaching the nearest star; of securing survival of the species. Economists predict the postponement of death in the general population will lead to financial ruin for most governments. Dr. Crosse is thrust into the deadly matrix of world politics. Her life is threatened as she toils to modify and redeploy her cancer cure to reverse the aging process.
Immortality is scientifically possible. The innovative paradigm shifts created by the Quaternary Medicine Code are destined to become standard medical practice. Anyone facing the sting of their own mortality will find this story to be an intriguing, vivacious departure from-what up until now-has been considered the inevitable.

Book Description: The sky is NOT caving in on American letters. Far from it. The immensely talented writers in this collection all came of age professionally in the last decade--and all chose reading and writing over another more lucrative and decidedly flashier pursuits. They became producers and consumers of the written word at the most media-saturated time in history, a time when books face greater cultural competition than ever before. Why? How did they come to writing as a calling? What's the relevance of literature when the very term seems quaint? Bookmark Now answers these questions--and many more you probably never thought to ask. Like: What to do when your rabid fans start writing fiction about you? Why don't you have to choose between John Updike and Grand Theft Auto? And, can you really get paid for it?
The end result is not only a voyeuristic peek into the creative lives of today's writers, but a timely glimpse into a changing book business. Storytelling, it will become clear-as a means of self-realization, community building, or simply putting one's point across-is NOW more relevant than ever before.
To promote his book, Bookmark Now, Kevin Smokler took a rather unorthodox approach to the traditional author tour--he conducted it from the comfort of his own home. In an exclusive essay for Amazon.com, Smokler writes about the pros and cons of conducting a Virtual Book Tour.
