          Book Description

          It is now almost ten years since the appearance of the only previous volume devoted to the methodologies used in mycorrhizal research. The past decade has been a momentous period which has seen not only an explosiveincrease of interest in mychorrhiza as evidenced by the surge in number of papers published, but also, and most importantly, the welcome development of a greater awareness amongst plant physiologists, ecologists, and microbiologists that the mycorrhizal condition is the norm rather than the exception. Through this same period, sophisticated new technologies (e.g. NMR, RFLP, DNA mediated transformation, immunocytochemistry), which are readily applicable to mycorrhizal research, have become widely available. These changes have given rise to an urgent need for a comprehensive and up-to-date source book of techniques which can be routinely used in laboratories involved in mychorrhizal research to facilitate and increase the effectiveness of their research. This comb-bound work is designed to meet this need. The volumes are divided so that the first part emphasizes a description of techniques applicable to ectomycorrhizal and ericoid systems, while the second stresses vesicular-arbuscular systems. Each contains a mix of papers, written by the leading authorities in their fields, which emphasize techniques, but which also include up-to-date reviews of particular topics such as carbon, metabolism, nitrogen metabolism, and applied aspects. The methods whereby, and the extent to which, mychorrhizal inoculation can be used to facilitate revegetation, as well as increases of agricultural or forest productivity are also described.

            Book Description

            The importance of mycorrhiza is amply established as biofertilizers, for their role in the establishment of plants in stress habitats and nutrient-deficient soils, and as biocontrol agents. This book fulfils a great demand for a laboratory manual on mycorrhizal research describing the basic techniques, and contains chapters by eminent Indian mycorrhizologists. As well as basic laboratory exercises (rather than only modern aspects of experimentation), chapters on mycorrhizal dependency, mycorrhiza as biocontrol agents in agriculture, horticulture and forestry, and the establishment of micropropagated plants make this compilation unique. It is aimed at researchers, scientists and government agencies, and is required reading for graduate and postgraduate courses in mycorrhizal biology.

            The editor's previous books include Concepts in Mycorrhizal Research and Mycorrhizal Biology

            5 out of 5 stars what took me so long?.......2007-05-20

            I have lived in Oregon for twenty years and gotten around with a road map, this is sooo much better, now I need a washington edition. great book. has paid for itsself in just two local trips across the maze of roads from Newberg to Gaston.

            4 out of 5 stars The big red atlas.......2007-05-13

            Has everything listed however not in a organized fashion, 3 insets related to 3 other pages are on one page just because they're within 4 miles of the coast. From N to S on a map it doesnt break in a logical way. There are no insets of large cities main roads such as portland, salem, eugene, corvallis. however, forest service roads are listed and named. which is a great help when highways are closed.

            4 out of 5 stars As good as you are going to find for this type of atlas.......2006-11-10

            This atlas is much more detailed that ones like it, such as Benchmark's recreation atlas. With this being said, it not as detailed as one may need in the back country. I mainly use it to provide a general overview of the region I am exploring, and to locate common places.Main forest service roads are visible, yet no all are marked with a name or number. I use it in conjunction with USGS topo quad maps, forest service map, and GPS, and serves it purpose very well.

            5 out of 5 stars The Best For Wilderness Travel.......2006-11-06

            For wilderness travel the Delorme atlases are the best maps I've found to have in your pack aside from a backpack full of USGS and Forest Service maps. If you're interested in a road atlas, something to use while traveling around in the safety of your vehicle, then get a Thomas Guide (the best ROAD atlases in the world). The Delorme atlases show you all the land features, topography, public lands boundaries, and waterways (even the minor and intermittent ones). I've used three of these atlases while traveling on foot through the national forests, and they have literally saved my life many times. Finding locales and navigating inside the map is simple and easy, much simpler than the Benchmark series which don't seem to have a workable navigation key at all. The one and only complaint I have about these atlases are their size; they're huge, and for an atlas whose contents seem to be designed for wilderness travel that large size just sucks when trying to find pack space for it. Fortunately, they fold in half easily, which helps a lot.

            5 out of 5 stars Great reference book.......2006-02-01

            My Oregon oversized atlas arrived promptly and I used it recently for a trip along the Oregon coast. It provided a lot of helpful information and I find it pertinent for the full enjoyment of any road trip.

                            5 out of 5 stars The Date Diva Rules!.......2007-09-10

                            I gave 52 Ways to newlyweds friends of mine recently who loved it. We all remarked how busy we all were and that it is difficult to have the time to come up with an idea, let alone go through with it. Now, I use Manieri's book as a resource and reminder that date night is a must!

                            5 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Orlando !.......2007-09-04

                            This is exactly the sort of Guidebook that Orlando needs. For too long, we who work in The City Beautiful have been asked: "What's there to do besides Disney??" Well, here's a book that tells you just what's out there, all presented in a detailed, yet easy-to-access format. There's lots of life beyond the theme parks, and Kristen tells you how to find it. You'll never run out of fun and unusual things to do while in Orlando, whether you're a resident or a visitor. Enjoy!

                            5 out of 5 stars Lots to love about Orlando!!.......2007-09-04

                            Great Dates Orlando is a must have for any Central Floridian. I was amazed at all of the hidden treasures that Orlando has to offer and with the weekly newsletters, I am always up to speed on upcoming events around town. From wine tastings to kayaking, candy making to hot air balloon rides, there is something for everyone's personality and budget. Not only do I enjoy spending these great dates with my boyfriend but I have also found it is a perfect way to spend a day with the girls! Thanks Date Diva for taking the guessing out of great dating.

                            5 out of 5 stars Dating Inspiration!!.......2007-09-04

                            Even though my husband and I pride ourselves on creating great dates, we were truly inspired by all of the ideas that The Date Diva gives in Great Dates Orlando in a city where we have lived for several years. Our favorite is to use the date ideas as surprises for each other making our way down the list. For a very active couple, we love the fact that the date ideas cover every aspect of life that we enjoy with each other from the most active dates to the most intimate, quiet dates! Thank you Date Diva for inspiring us to never take for granted the importance of our time together.

                            My wife and I were stuck in the rut of not knowing what to do in Orlando. The bar scene has grown old and we were sick of seeing the same people over and over. This book has given us fresh life! It has not only brought us new adventures, it has enhanced our love for each other by trying things we never would have before. Thanks Date Diva!!

                                        Book Description

                                        This volume is a supplement to the two previously published volumes (High Pressure Phase Transformations: A Handbook, Vols. 1 and 2.) The handbooks classify and systematize data on phase transformations of elements and compounds under high pressure (at least 0.1 GPa). A separate section with a complete list of references is devoted to each compound. Information on the behavior of the material under normal pressure is included, together with a critical analysis of experimental data on melting, first- and second-order phase transitions, crystal structures, and phase diagrams. Information on atmospheric pressure is also presented, including the temperatures of phase transitions, concommitant enthalpy and volume changes, densities and crystallographic data of modifications. Among the updates included in this volume is the data for 354 new compounds not listed in the previous handbooks, as well as addenda for 230 entries from the earlier volumes.

                                          Book Description

                                          With the discovery of type-II superconductivity by Abrikosov, the prediction of vortex lattices, and their experimental observation, quantized vortices have become a central object of study in superconductivity, superfluidity, and Bose--Einstein condensation. This book presents the mathematics of superconducting vortices in the framework of the acclaimed two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau model, with or without magnetic field, and in the limit of a large Ginzburg-Landau parameter, kappa.

                                          This text presents complete and mathematically rigorous versions of both results either already known by physicists or applied mathematicians, or entirely new. It begins by introducing mathematical tools such as the vortex balls construction and Jacobian estimates. Among the applications presented are: the determination of the vortex densities and vortex locations for energy minimizers in a wide range of regimes of applied fields, the precise expansion of the so-called first critical field in a bounded domain, the existence of branches of solutions with given numbers of vortices, and the derivation of a criticality condition for vortex densities of non-minimizing solutions. Thus, this book retraces in an almost entirely self-contained way many results that are scattered in series of articles, while containing a number of previously unpublished results as well.

                                          The book also provides a list of open problems and a guide to the increasingly diverse mathematical literature on Ginzburg--Landau related topics. It will benefit both pure and applied mathematicians, physicists, and graduate students having either an introductory or an advanced knowledge of the subject.

                                              Book Description

                                              Equations of the Ginzburg–Landau vortices have particular applications to a number of problems in physics, including phase transition phenomena in superconductors, superfluids, and liquid crystals. Building on the results presented by Bethuel, Brazis, and Helein, this current work further analyzes Ginzburg-Landau vortices with a particular emphasis on the uniqueness question.

                                              The authors begin with a general presentation of the theory and then proceed to study problems using weighted Hölder spaces and Sobolev Spaces. These are particularly powerful tools and help us obtain a deeper understanding of the nonlinear partial differential equations associated with Ginzburg-Landau vortices. Such an approach sheds new light on the links between the geometry of vortices and the number of solutions.

                                              Aimed at mathematicians, physicists, engineers, and grad students, this monograph will be useful in a number of contexts in the nonlinear analysis of problems arising in geometry or mathematical physics. The material presented covers recent and original results by the authors, and will serve as an excellent classroom text or a valuable self-study resource.

                                                  I don't know why the novel often seems to go out of print. I've always thought this was Manfred's best. The characters are well-defined (as in all his novels) and the narrative itself is compelling. Some subject matter is not for the squeamish, but it certainly reads as believeable and authoritative.

                                                  Though this is thought of as a "western" novel, it's not really about range wars or Indian battles; it's about betrayal, the desire for revenge (perhaps the positive side of it?), and forgiveness. It's about how deep a person has to dig within himself in order to survive.

                                                  You won't regret reading this novel, even if you don't like novels in the "western" genre.

                                                  This is one particularly unique western set in a time when the Midwest was untamed; it's probably like no other western ever written. I have read maybe two-hundred westerns, but I was naive until I read Lord Grizzley.

                                                  I had never even heard of Hugh Glass when i picked this book up. Wow, what a life he led! If even half of it is true its an amazing tale in the spirit of Jeremiah Johnson.

                                                  What this man goes through is unbelievable and makes for a heck of a page turner. Great historical/fiction mountain man story.

                                                  Actually, this book should be about 4 1/2 stars, but I'll round up. It is a captivating book that is part history and part (probably the biggest part) fiction centered around an historic figure. I imagine old Hugh did go through very similar experiences during his time in hell. This book gives a great depiction of what life probably was like for a mountain man in the early 1800s. It reminds me of the sheer luxuries we all take for granted in every day life compared to those who lived before us. Hugh Glass is portrayed as a determined man who was about as tough as any creature on the planet could be. I imagine he was. For a glimpse of how the West was before white men poured in, what life consisted of then, and the inspirational feats of a colorful mountain man, read this book. It's hard to put down.

                                                  5 out of 5 stars Manfred describes NW South Dakota like it is yet!.......1999-04-04

                                                  Having veiwed the Hugh Glass Monument at the forks of the Grand River in NW South Dakota several times as a boy growing up within 15 miles of the site, I was pleased when Frederick Manfred published his book about Hugh Glass. Because of the flooding of the Grand River forks after the installation of Shadehill Dam, the monument was moved to the top of the nearest hill where it still stands today, about 15 miles southwest of Lemmon, SD

                                                  Manfred came to Lemmon ,SD after his book was published and conducted a seminar at the Library there about his research on Glass and the historic 200 mile crawl he made. Having grown up in the area and rode many of these same hills horseback trailing horses or cattle, I can tell you he did a wonderful job of describing the area like it is yet today. The book has a little local color added I'm sure, but that only makes for a lot better reading. The dates and facts of this true story about a mountain man and pioneer are recorded history. Manfred turned that part of the Northern Plains history into a very readable novel. In 1923, 100 years after the story takes place, many local homesteaders and pioneers placed a monument on the site. They all signed a manuscript, dated it and enclosed it in a copper tube and covered it with the concrete for the monument. It is to be opened in 2023, 200 years after the saga of Hugh Glass (Lord Grizzly) took place. My Grandparents ,mother and aunts and uncles were there on the 100th anniversary. I hope to be there for the 200th.

                                                  Nate King has a lot to be happy about. He and his family are settling into a new home, far from the taint of civilization. But the deep wilderness has its own set of dangers, including the greatest predator of them all: the giant grizzly. Nate has earned a reputation as Grizzly Killer, but this bear is different—this bear saved his life once, and Nate feels a debt of honor. But is it possible to teach a wild griz to go against its murderous nature? Will Nate's plan be any match for the mammoth bear's four-inch claws and wickedly sharp teeth? Or will his family learn a fatal lesson of their own?

                                                  The King families thrilling saga continues along with Shakespeare McNair and Blue Water Women as they arrive in the location they have decided to start their new lives. The story evolves around Nates decision to train the king of the valley, `Lord Grizzly` to accept a peaceful relationship with him and his family. His quandary was in developing a plan to convince a massive unpredictable monstrosity to not eat potential prey. Unfortunately Zach encounters `Lord Grizzly` before Nate can figure out a plan and finds himself in a ride for his life as he is overtaken and barely manages to avoid being slashed or mauled by the timely arrival of Nate, who then decides to take the initiative and drive the bear to an isolated valley. Content he has succeeded he returns home only to find that the bear had followed him and what ensues is a fast paced battle between man and one of the most primal monstrosities still in existence until all Nate has left to defend himself with is a knife and tomahawk which he utilizes to do the unpredictable, with firm resolution he attacks the bear.

                                                  As usual a very thrilling story in the continual adventures of the King family and highly recommended not only for fans but would be fans as well. David always endeavors to fill his books with facts that leave me surfing the net to learn more and, as usual, I find myself enlightened after finishing one of his books. In this one in particular I learned interesting facts about animals, several old Indian legends about mysterious people, customs, animals and even their belief in Creation and how closely it ties with the basic Christian views. Also, as always when Shakespeare is involved in the story, there is an abundance of quotes from the `Bard', most of which are so ingeniously incorporated into the storyline one must surmise that the author is an expert on the subject of `Shakespeare` and has the ability to quote him from memory and apply it to any situation.

                                                  Overall, this is a superb addition to the Wilderness series, and having read them all to date, would consider this one of the author's best.
