Download or read book Adventures among Ants written by Mark W. Moffett and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2010-05-05 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intrepid international explorer, biologist, and photographer Mark W. Moffett, "the Indiana Jones of entomology," takes us around the globe on a strange and colorful journey in search of the hidden world of ants. In tales from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Amazon, Australia, California, and elsewhere, Moffett recounts his entomological exploits and provides fascinating details on how ants live and how they dominate their ecosystems through strikingly human behaviors, yet at a different scale and a faster tempo. Moffett’s spectacular close-up photographs shrink us down to size, so that we can observe ants in familiar roles; warriors, builders, big-game hunters, and slave owners. We find them creating marketplaces and assembly lines and dealing with issues we think of as uniquely human—including hygiene, recycling, and warfare. Adventures among Ants introduces some of the world’s most awe-inspiring species and offers a startling new perspective on the limits of our own perception. • Ants are world-class road builders, handling traffic problems on thoroughfares that dwarf our highway systems in their complexity • Ants with the largest societies often deploy complicated military tactics • Some ants have evolved from hunter-gatherers into farmers, domesticating other insects and growing crops for food

Book excerpt: The Heartbeat Library is a tender, contemplative, and uplifting novel about grief, friendship, and the many ways we heal, by the internationally bestselling author of The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World. On the peaceful Japanese island of Teshima there is a library of heartbeats, a place where the heartbeats of visitors from all around the world are collected. In this small, isolated building, the heartbeats of people who are still alive or have already passed away continue to echo. Several miles away, in the ancient city of Kamakura, two lonely souls meet: Shuichi, a 40-year-old illustrator, who returns to his hometown to fix up the house of his recently deceased mother, and eight-year-old Kenta, a child who wanders like a shadow around Shuichi’s house. Day by day, the trust between Shuichi and Kenta grows, until they discover they share a bond that will tie them together for life. Their journey will lead them to Teshima and to the library of heartbeats . . . Enchanting, touching, and emotionally riveting, The Heartbeat Library is a story about loss and hope, pain and joy, reality and imagination, and the promise of healing and overcoming the odds thanks to the relationships we build and rediscover. Inspired by Les Archives du Cœur, an art installation in Japan that permanently houses recordings of the heartbeats of people throughout the world, Laura Imai Messina returns in this novel to the themes and atmospheres of her internationally bestselling novel The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World, combining a real-life pilgrimage site of healing with an unforgettable and heartwarming story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If DAVID RAKOFF and DAVID SEDARIS had a baby and that baby was Betty." —Zoe Kazan If you’ve ever felt like you were more, or at least weirder, than the world expected? you're not alone... In this collection, EMMY AWARD-nominated ACTRESS/WRITER Betty Gilpin "writes like an avenging angel, weaving a tapestry of light and darkness, hilarity, and pathos." (Dani Shapiro) Oh. Hi. *takes six long gulps of water during which you’re like, may I help you?* My name is Betty. I have depression. I have passion. I have tits the size of printers. And also: I have a brain full of women. There’s Blanche VonFuckery, Ingrid St. Rash, and a host of others—some cowering in sweatpants, some howling plans for revolution, and one, oh God, and one . . . slowly vomiting up a crow? Worried for her. These women take turns at the wheel. That’s why I feel like a million selves. With a raised eyebrow and a soul-scalpel, I’d like to tell you how I got this way. Because maybe you feel this way too. Let’s hop from wild dissections of modern womanhood to boarding school musings to the glossy cringe of Hollywood. Let’s laugh at my failures and then quietly hope with me for the dream. Whether that dream is love or liberation or enough IMDB credits to taze the demon snapping at my ankles, we won’t know until the shit-fanning end. As a dear friend said after reading this book, it’s “either a masterpiece, or it’s...completely...” and then she glazed over into a haunted stare. Reader? This book is my opus and it is chaos. Welcome to All the Women in My Brain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book details the advances in cardiac MRI that have enabled quantitative tissue characterization of the myocardium using myocardial and blood T1 measurements, which have enabled reliable detection of diffuse pathological processes in both the cardiomyocytes and the interstitial cells of the myocardium. Evaluation of the native myocardial and interstitial fibrosis, and measurement of the extracellular volume fraction has allowed an unprecedented opportunity to elucidate the pathology, diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular disease. T1-Mapping in Myocardial Disease: Principles and Applications reviews a wide spectrum of significant cardiovascular disease and provides relevant guidance for the clinical implementation of this innovative technique. The specific topics covered include principles of T1-mapping in cardiovascular disease and the role of T1-mapping in hypertensive heart disease and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, cardiotoxicity from cancer treatment, cardiacfibrosis, left ventricular hypertrophy in aortic stenosis, peri-infarct injury in ischemic cardiomyopathy, and stem cell therapy. This comprehensive coverage of the utility of T1-mapping in cardiovascular diseases will greatly appeal to the entire cardiovascular medicine and imaging communities.

This book was released on 2012-04-09 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is presented as a coaching guide to explain how your author's more than fifty-year personal struggle to find the Holy Grail of personal development, emotional health, and a happier life has come true, as it will for you! Neuroplasticity: Medical research in this relatively new field of study has only recently discovered that we can literally, physically alter the neuro-pathways in our brains and change our life-long negative thinking habits. Thinkiatry's A.N.T. extermination principles and process are now a valid medical research supported self-therapy and coaching objective process millions can discover and use to alter the emotional landscape of their lives for the better, forever. A.N.T. - Automatic Negative Thinking. . . . . . is something all of us do every day; yet, almost all of us are totally and, as you will soon learn, tragically unaware of how this centuries old, life-long, human habit controls our emotional well-being, physical health, and the quality of each individual's day-to-day life. On a broader scale, human ANT colonies, like snowflakes, are unique; dramatically and collectively influencing world politics, governments, economies, religions and the quality of life for billions of people around the world. Based upon the preceding statements, only briefly introducing the importance of ANTS to billions of lives, most would logically expect that they would be a universal core subject of study and discussion for young and old alike in schools, universities, media commentary, and daily human interaction throughout the world. However, the odds are about 99% that you have never heard of an ANT without more than two legs to walk on. To your author's knowledge, after more than fifty years of personal emotional struggle, research and study, we have for centuries ignored our ANTS as nothing more than a function of being alive just like our breathing, heartbeat, and other bodily functions - "It's just the way life is." It's not anymore! The following is merely a partial list of emotional conditions that can be self-treated and significantly reduced, or in some cases eliminated, as we learn to use Thinkiatry's Principles and Process to exterminate our individually unique ANT Colonies to experience lasting emotional health and happiness in our lives: Divorce Weight problems Stress Anxiety Addictions Anger Sadness Hatred Obesity Jealousy Insecurity Bullying Loneliness Arrogance Hypocrisy Fear Become a Thinkiatrist and join the happiest, emotionally healthy people on earth!
