Download or read book Making the Modern World written by Vaclav Smil and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How much further should the affluent world push its material consumption? Does relative dematerialization lead to absolute decline in demand for materials? These and many other questions are discussed and answered in Making the Modern World: Materials and Dematerialization. Over the course of time, the modern world has become dependent on unprecedented flows of materials. Now even the most efficient production processes and the highest practical rates of recycling may not be enough to result in dematerialization rates that would be high enough to negate the rising demand for materials generated by continuing population growth and rising standards of living. This book explores the costs of this dependence and the potential for substantial dematerialization of modern economies. Making the Modern World: Materials and Dematerialization considers the principal materials used throughout history, from wood and stone, through to metals, alloys, plastics and silicon, describing their extraction and production as well as their dominant applications. The evolving productivities of material extraction, processing, synthesis, finishing and distribution, and the energy costs and environmental impact of rising material consumption are examined in detail. The book concludes with an outlook for the future, discussing the prospects for dematerialization and potential constrains on materials. This interdisciplinary text provides useful perspectives for readers with backgrounds including resource economics, environmental studies, energy analysis, mineral geology, industrial organization, manufacturing and material science.

Download or read book Description of Egypt written by Edward William Lane and published by American Univ in Cairo Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The launching of this hitherto unpublished book by the great nineteenth-century British traveler Edward William Lane (1801-76), a name known to almost everyone in all the many fields of Middle East studies, is a major publishing event. Lane was the author of a number of highly influential works: An Account of the Manners and Customs of the Modern Egyptians (1836), his translation of The Thousand and One Nights (1839-41), Selections from the Kur-an (1843), and the Arabic-English Lexicon (1863-93). Yet one of his greatest works was never published: after years of labor and despite an enthusiastic reception by the publishing firm of John Murray in 1831, publication of his first book, Description of Egypt, was delayed and eventually dropped, mainly for financial reasons. The manuscript was sold to the British Library by Lane's widow in 1891, and has only now been salvaged for publication by Dr. Jason Thompson, nearly 170 years after its completion. This enormously important book, which takes the form of a journey through Egypt from north to south, with descriptions of all the ancient monuments and contemporary life that Lane explored along the way, will be of immense interest to both ancient and modern historians of Egypt, and will become an essential companion to his Manners and Customs. ''Jason Thompson's exact and dedicated edition deserves much praise.''-Astene Newsletter, June 2002. ''Thompson, a historian at AUC, has done signal service in taking a manuscript dating from 1831 and preparing it for publication so many years later; AUC Press deserves praise for making so major a work available, and at so reasonable a price.''-Daniel Pipes, Middle East Quarterly, June 2001. ''In all, the appearance of this major work of scholarship at this late date is a major boon to the study of Egypt's history between the pharaohs and 18280.''-Daniel Pipes, Middle East Quarterly, June 2001.

Book excerpt: Will she obey? Will she follow? Can she trust? Can she succeed? Tachee, the last of the mantii race, faces these questions as she begins her journey. She is constantly being taught and trained; but for what? She wonders, and she prays... Tachee awakes one morning to find her usual routine and lone companion are taken away suddenly. In the elvish city, Un Wava, Tachee begins discovering her skills, learns a history she never knew, and develops much longed for friends. She finds contentment, when she is called to leave it all behind, and by someone Tachee never thought she would encounter. Unsure of herself but discontent to stay, she chooses to obey and embarks on a journey that both reveals and develops her true character. Danger, excitement, rest and friendship await her on a journey through a land full of secrets, darkness and enemies. However, light is coming... Athena Taylor Lester is a home school student who loves reading, and particularly enjoys fantastical fiction. She started writing at an early age, and at 13 decided to try her hand at writing a full-scale fantasy novel. Her passion is to write stories that are not bogged down with superfluous spooks or false ideas frequently found in fantasy novels. In contrast, her desire is to write enjoyable adventures wherein her readers are left encouraged and with themes reinforcing truth. In all of her novels (this one and the ones still in her head) she strives for messages reflecting truth and inspiration to press on toward the mark set before us. Athena lives in North Central Arkansas and she wants everyone to know her favorite color is pink.

Download or read book Towards a Theory of Mime written by Alexander Iliev and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-30 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Towards a Theory of Mime is a genuinely unique book about non-verbal communication and performance. Combining a broad global history of the evolution of human communication with an introduction to the general practice of mime, Alexander Iliev traces a lineage from Marceau and Barrault to his own distinguished practice as performer and teacher. The book moves from a fascinating description of the first principles of gestural language to a stunning sequence of specific exercises in practical training. Written in a sometimes poetic, always accessible and often humorous style, Towards a Theory of Mime conveys complex ideas in a strikingly accessible way. Alexander Iliev has over forty years experience practising and teaching both theatre and anthropology around the world. He is currently Associate Professor at the National Academy in Sofia.
