          Book Description

             Steeped in family correspondence, contemporary newspaper accounts, and Blackwell's own work, Elizabeth Cazden has written the first biography of the 19th-century feminist and first American woman to be ordained a Christian minister. Antoinette Brown Blackwell recreates her dramatic struggle to breach "the great wall of custom" and become a minister. Equally compelling is the story of her attempt to integrate both public and private lives; she agreed to marry Elizabeth Blackwell's brother Samuel on condition that she would continue her own professional work and he would share household responsibilities. Cazden follows Blackwell from her student days at Oberlin, through her feminist activity on the lecture circuit with Lucy Stone, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and Susan B. Anthony, and her marriage and rearing of five daughters.

                  Book Description

                  Clearly, the debate is no longer over agricultural sustainability as a legitimate goal, but about how to fulfill that goal. Research is a vital factor contributing to the creation of a sustainable agriculture. Entrenched ideas about the way agricultural research is conducted have been challenged by farmers, environmentalists, food-safety advocates, rural activists, and others.
                  William Lockeretz and Molly D. Anderson meet these challenges and chart a reasoned course through the fray. They analyze the potential and the limits of various research approaches associated with alternative agriculture: multidisciplinary research, application of ecological principles in understanding agricultural systems, emphasis on the use of agricultural information, use of working farms as research sites, and the involvement of farmers in agricultural research. They also propose reforms in institutional aspects of agricultural research—the organization of academic departments, evaluation of professional achievement, functioning of grant programs, and the education of agricultural researchers.

                                          This Tenth Edition maintains its solid coverage of the two major energy systems of Earth: the plate tectonic system and the hydrologic cycle. Boasting a new four-part organization, this renowned book contains current content and a striking illustration package, while exposing readers to a global view of Earth and helping them look at the world as geologists do. Part I introduces geologic systems, the materials modified by these systems, and geologic time. Part II examines the hydrologic system and its subsystems chapter by chapter. Part III explores the details of the tectonic system and includes chapters on divergent, transform, and convergent boundaries, as well as mantle plumes—the subsystems of the tectonic system. Part IV looks at our planet in two ways: by first examining the geologic resources that make life possible, and then by comparing and contrasting Earth with other planets to reveal how unique our planet is. For professionals with a career or interest in geology, Earth science, and/or environmental science.

                                          2 out of 5 stars Ok i guess.......2005-09-20

                                          This book was advertised as the 10th edition, but was really the 9th edition. The seller contacted me and offered my money back or a discount, but I didn't respond promply to the email, so I ended up with the book anyway. I ended up buying it from the bookstore too. This books seemed to be the same, exempt the chapters were in different orders. I felt that is was my fault for not responding to the email, but advertising the right edition I think is key if you are going to sell books online.

                                          5 out of 5 stars Best geology book ever!.......2001-11-26

                                          I own a copy of the fifth edition of this book. I am a science junkie and enjoy reading science text books. I find geology particularly interesting and over the years I have read dozens and dozens of geology textbooks. Earth's Dynamic Systems is by far the best I have ever read. If I was ever to teach a geology class, this is the book I would use. The line of thinking is so clear and logical in this book it is a joy to read. The illustrations are among the best I have ever seen and I have just the old the 5th ed. Generally when there are a number of good books on a given subject, they are all pretty much the same in quality. But that is not the case here, this book is head and shoulders above all other geology books. The edition I have also came with a lab manual that I also highly recommend. A wonderful set of books I am proud to own. If you are looking for a definitive single book that best covers all of geology, this is it. In this one book is more geology than in several other books put together. If you thoroughly read this book, you will know geology better than most geologists, it really is that good.

                                          Hamblin y Christiansen han creado el perfecto balance entre lo esencialmente tecnico y lo ampliamente comprensible. Es una obra que durara toda la vida en manos de geologos, geofisicos y cualquier amante del estudio del planeta tierra.

                                          Un exelente libro que, por su excesivo costo para latinoamérica, está fuera del alcance de muchos estudiantes quienes continuaremos estudiando en la bibliotecas.

                                          Una exelente obra de los autores y un muy mal acto de la editora.

                                          If you want a basic book that will help you understand geology you need this book. the book can fit anyone from age 7 to 70 (while you still see). every kid can understand basic geology concepts by looking at the pictures and reading the wothy text. even if you are a geologist like me you still enjoy wonderful pictures and great explanations. the glossary and the index help you find and understand hard words and terms

                                            Book Description

                                            Kinetic Theory of granular Gases provides an introduction to the rapidly developing theory of dissipative gas dynamics as it has been developed mainly during the past decade. The book is aimed at readers from the advanced undergraduate level onwards and leads up to the present state of
                                            research. The text is self-contained, in the sense that no mathematical or physical knowledge is required that goes beyond standard undergraduate physics courses. The material is adequate for a one-semester course and contains chapter summaries as well as exercises with detailed solutions. Special
                                            emphasis is put on a microscopically consistent description of pairwise particle collisions which leads to an impact-velocity dependent coefficient of restitution. The description of the many-particle system, based on the Boltzmann equation, starts with the derivation of the velocity distribution
                                            function, followed by the investigation of self-diffusion and Brownian motion. Using hydrodynamical methods, transport processes and self-organized structure formulation are studies. An appendix gives a brief introduction to event-driven molecular dynamics. A second appendix describes a novel
                                            mathematical technique for the derivation of the kinetic properties which allows for the application of computer algebra. The book is accompanied by a web page where the molecular dynamics program as well as the computer-algebra programs are provided.

                                                  It's the light in our bedroom that answers the question. It's not whether she's awake that matters really. It's whether the light is on. If the light is off she chose to turn it off. If it's on she intended to see me. That's all that I'm concerned with.

                                                  When I pull in our driveway and the light is on I know. She's folding clothes, reading her book, taking a shower, brushing her hair into pony tails, or has fallen asleep waiting. I know she intended to wait up. The knowing is all that matters.

                                                  Change is good, or so they say. “They” being everyone but me that is. Everyone who isn't going through a change or has been through one in the past. Not those of us who are facing the uncertainty of change in the present. None of us would agree. The fear of what could happen when the road turns keeps us set on our path. We are familiar with our surroundings and there is little reason to venture very far away from what we know.

                                                  I have no choice in the matter. My life is changing and I'm going along for the ride.

                                                  5 out of 5 stars Yes, You are missing something. This is fantastic!.......2005-09-22

                                                  I do not wish to give too much away. Drivetime is broken into two main characters; the two lovers; the husband and wife. Their personal considerations and internal struggles with who they are as themselves as well as, as a couple is beautiful. It is real and refreshing to feel, read, understand the love that they have for one another as well as for life in general. they have their own challenges and the fact that neither has any idea of what the other is truley feeling as important rings true as in most marriages. comunicatio is perception and in this wonderful story of love there is not better description, in no other book, in no other time, that I have read or heard of. Buiy it for yourself and make up your own mind. Incredible, I say. Absolutely incredible!

                                                  1 out of 5 stars Am I missing something here with this book ?????.......2005-09-13

                                                  Maybe I just didn't get it but this book made absolutely no sense to me whatsoever. What a waste of money !!!

                                                  5 out of 5 stars It is the journey home that matters most. . ........2005-02-24

                                                  . . not the destination. This book is a refreshing look into the first person lives of both a mother/lover/wife and a father/lover/husband. With a very bold and unique style, "Drivetime" breaks rules, but works better than any "love story" I have read. Upon first read, I did not notice that the characters have no names, no physical descriptions, no age and no race. Closing gaps in generations, these two lovers are the reason we love. They are well defined and their emotions lay out for everyone to recognize themselves in. What a wonderfuly caring account of why we love and how that love can know no boundaries.

                                                  It is my understanding that this novel was written for the authors wife. The first line is amazing, "My heart is known only by treetops and outer branches." With such wide brushstrokes everyone will enjoy it. Buy an extra copy for the friend you love.

                                                  5 out of 5 stars An outstanding book that you will go back to again and again.......2004-12-26

                                                  I found myself right in the middle of both characters. I could relate to their love they have for one another. I have followed this author before and he continues to open my eyes to everything around me, thanks Tony. I continue to read this book over and over, I find myself feeling different everytime. I look forward to many more works from him.

                                                  5 out of 5 stars A Great Read- funny, sad and true- excellent use of language.......2004-06-14

                                                  I really enjoyed this book. It nails truth on the head and is poetic in that each sentence is a finely crafted piece of art. Anthony has something to say and he says it well and with great humor. There is no flab here- just the story. I really enjoyed the story. The characters really came to life and I identified with both of them. I will be reading his other books as well.

                                                  Great Job Tony!
