Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Pollan shines a light on our own nature as well as on our implication in the natural world.” —The New York Times “A wry, informed pastoral.” —The New Yorker The book that helped make Michael Pollan, the New York Times bestselling author of How to Change Your Mind, Cooked and The Omnivore’s Dilemma, one of the most trusted food experts in America Every schoolchild learns about the mutually beneficial dance of honeybees and flowers: The bee collects nectar and pollen to make honey and, in the process, spreads the flowers’ genes far and wide. In The Botany of Desire, Michael Pollan ingeniously demonstrates how people and domesticated plants have formed a similarly reciprocal relationship. He masterfully links four fundamental human desires—sweetness, beauty, intoxication, and control—with the plants that satisfy them: the apple, the tulip, marijuana, and the potato. In telling the stories of four familiar species, Pollan illustrates how the plants have evolved to satisfy humankind’s most basic yearnings. And just as we’ve benefited from these plants, we have also done well by them. So who is really domesticating whom?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five action-packed thrillers in the #1 New York Times bestselling Scarpetta series: Cause of Death, Unnatural Exposure, Point of Origin, and Trace. “Cornwell remains the master of incorporating real-life science into pulse-pounding fiction.”—The Philadelphia Inquirer IN DEVELOPMENT AS THE ORIGINAL SERIES SCARPETTA STARRING NICOLE KIDMAN AND JAMIE LEE CURTIS Cause of Death: On New Year’s Eve, Dr. Kay Scarpetta plunges into the depths of the Elizabeth River to recover the very human remains of an investigative reporter. With the advent of a second murder—this one closer to home—the case envelops Scarpetta and those closest to her in a web of danger and threatens to wreak fear and death far beyond Virginia. Unnatural Exposure: When Dr. Kay Scarpetta determines that a murder victim was exposed to a rare smallpox-like virus before she died and, later, that she herself may have been infected, she realizes that she is up against a killer with access to an incredibly sophisticated arsenal of deadly force. Point of Origin: Picking through the wreckage of a devastating fire, Dr. Kay Scarpetta uncovers human remains. When Scarpetta learns that her old nemesis, Carrie Grethen, has escaped from a hospital for the criminally insane and is somehow involved, the investigation becomes personal. Black Notice: A cargo ship arriving from Belgium holds a locked, sealed container with the decomposed remains of a stowaway. Dr. Kay Scarpetta initially finds neither cause of death nor an identification. But the victim’s personal effects and an odd tattoo take Scarpetta on an international hunt that could ruin her career—and places her and the ones she holds dear at mortal risk. Trace: While investigating the death of a teen girl, Dr. Kay Scarpetta must work with the smallest pieces of evidence—traces that only the most thorough hunters can identify. Now she must follow the twisting leads and tracks the strange details in order to make the dead speak. . . .

Download or read book Cornwell written by David Pliner and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-04-25 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story takes place in three periods: the present, the past, and in a stream of consciousness that randomly appears throughout the novel as thoughts appear to us every day. This is written in italics and is semiautobiographical. The Holocaust is only a small part of the story. The actual story is about local, prominent men, who belong to the same restricted country club and who engage in projects, at taxpayer expense, that nets them huge profits. They think that their actions benefit the city but, in actuality, are harmful, wasteful and destructive. There is a portrait gallery in the Quail Roost Club that features portraits of these important club members with vivid descriptions of their activities and actions. The president of the club takes a Jewish real estate agent on a tour of the gallery even though the club is restricted. The novel also delves into aging, time, survival, and the meaning of existence. It briefly mentions the death of Jesus. The novel also deals with how nefarious Nazis are able to escape to South America and then to the United States and how they deal with guilt, evil, and denial. Love, sex, humility, humanity, and humor are also subjects that are covered in this novel. The fact that I was the only Jew in two of the schools I attended and how it affected me through the stream of consciousness is a vital part of the story. Being a minority person seems to have bothered other people more than it bothered me, but I was confronted with problems that most people didn’t face.
