  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Remnants of Ancient Life written by Dale E. Greenwalt and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revolution in science that is transforming our understanding of extinct life We used to think of fossils as being composed of nothing but rock and minerals, all molecular traces of life having vanished long ago. We were wrong. Remnants of Ancient Life reveals how the new science of ancient biomolecules—pigments, proteins, and DNA that once functioned in living organisms tens of millions of years ago—is opening a new window onto the evolution of life on Earth. Paleobiologists are now uncovering these ancient remnants in the fossil record with increasing frequency, shedding vital new light on long-extinct creatures and the lost world they inhabited. Dale Greenwalt is your guide to these astonishing breakthroughs. He explains how ancient biomolecules hold the secrets to how mammoths dealt with the bitter cold, what colors dinosaurs exhibited in mating displays, how ancient viruses evolved to become more dangerous, and much more. Each chapter discusses different types of biomolecules and the insights they provide about the physiology, behavior, and evolution of extinct organisms, many of which existed long before the age of dinosaurs. A marvelous adventure of discovery, Remnants of Ancient Life offers an unparalleled look at an emerging science that is transforming our picture of the remote past. You will never think of fossils in the same way again.

Book House of Leaves

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark Z. Danielewski
  • Publisher : Pantheon
  • Release : 2000-03-07
  • ISBN : 0375420525
  • Pages : 738 pages

Download or read book House of Leaves written by Mark Z. Danielewski and published by Pantheon. This book was released on 2000-03-07 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A novelistic mosaic that simultaneously reads like a thriller and like a strange, dreamlike excursion into the subconscious.” —The New York Times Years ago, when House of Leaves was first being passed around, it was nothing more than a badly bundled heap of paper, parts of which would occasionally surface on the Internet. No one could have anticipated the small but devoted following this terrifying story would soon command. Starting with an odd assortment of marginalized youth -- musicians, tattoo artists, programmers, strippers, environmentalists, and adrenaline junkies -- the book eventually made its way into the hands of older generations, who not only found themselves in those strangely arranged pages but also discovered a way back into the lives of their estranged children. Now this astonishing novel is made available in book form, complete with the original colored words, vertical footnotes, and second and third appendices. The story remains unchanged, focusing on a young family that moves into a small home on Ash Tree Lane where they discover something is terribly wrong: their house is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. Of course, neither Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Will Navidson nor his companion Karen Green was prepared to face the consequences of that impossibility, until the day their two little children wandered off and their voices eerily began to return another story -- of creature darkness, of an ever-growing abyss behind a closet door, and of that unholy growl which soon enough would tear through their walls and consume all their dreams.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ancient Leaves: Or Translations and Paraphrases From Poets of Greece and Rome Ajax. Of Ajax, where he holds the outmost post, This while past have I seen thee trace and mark His new-imprinted footsteps, to discover Whether the hero be within or no: Thy steps are sure as scent of Spartan hound; It was but now he went within, his face Reeking with sweat and his hands red with blood. So, come, thou need'st not peer within the gate, But freely speak thine errand out, and one, Who knoweth all, will speed thee on thy way. Ulys. Dearest Athene, though unseen the while, Yet well known is that voice, as loud and clear As the deep note of a Tyrrhenian bell. Thou seest me on the traces of a foe, Ajax, the bearer of the seven-fold shield. For but this night past he hath done a deed Most passing strange - if that the deed be his; For herein we are all at fault, and I Have set myself to find this riddle out.
