Download or read book Earth Science and Human History 101 written by John J.W. Rogers and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-08-30 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How much has human history been influenced by the earth and its processes? This volume in the Science 101 series describes how both slow changes and rapid, violent, ones have impacted the development of civilizations throughout history. Slow changes include variations in climate, progressive development of types of tools and sources of energy, and changes in the types of food that people consume. Violent changes include volcanic eruptions such as the one at Toba 75,000 years ago, which may have caused diversification of people into different races, and the eruption of Santorini in 1640 BC, which may have destroyed Minoan civilization. Other disasters are Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the tsunami in the Indian Ocean in 2004.
Download or read book Earth 101 the Hidden Planet written by Steven Fazekas and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans have been intrigued with the sky and what lies beyond since the beginning of time. They looked at the moon, the stars and the planets while they wished to unlock their secrets. An unexplainable yearning, a strange homesickness guided their attempt, a subconscious one that always suggested that humans may have originated from another celestial object. In other words, earth may have been a stop gap for them, perhaps a temporary stay-over. Humans have always been amazed by the creatures of this planet: birds, fish, mammals, worms, amphibians, insects . . . how easily they all fit into their natural environment. Humans, on the other hand, are restless and battle endlessly and struggle with earths environment. In our yearning to belong to a natural environment, we humans had created an idolized and mystified place that we described in the Bible as the Garden of Eden. What if this place actually existed? This book suggests that humans original home, humans natural environment, does existnot in tales or legends but somewhere out in our planetary system. Read this book and you may agree that it makes sense. You might even conclude that this concept is not (so) far-fetched. Earth 101: The Hidden Planet explores mankinds ability to extend its domain and attempt to shed its earthly handicaps.

Additionally, every chapter contains "How Can I Explain" features, which provide simple, hands-on projects that illustrate a key concept. The text's narrative art program explains earth science concepts by breaking down processes into a series of steps. Brief annotations embedded throughout the figures explain each phase. Features such as "What a Scientist Sees," "Science Toolbox," "A Deeper Look," "How Can I Explain," and "Putting Earth Science to Use," present real-world photos alongside drawings that simplify and amplify visual information, while "See For Yourself" features identify sample sites in Google Earth.

Download or read book Heaven on Earth written by Wendy Cope and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a gloriously exuberant anthology, Wendy Cope sets out to prove that misery doesn't have all the best lines. What makes us happy? In her introduction the editor says of the subject-matter of these poems: 'A lot of them are about love - of lovers, spouses, children. There are also poems about places, the beauty of the natural world and the changing seasons, about company and solitude, about music, books, food and drink, and the pleasure of taking a shower. And there are some religious poems.' Among the more surprising items are the Chinese Po Chu-l on the advantages of baldness, the eighteenth-century John Dyer on the kindly behaviour of his ox, and an unusually cheerful Thomas Hardy enjoying the sight of seven women laughing as they stagger, arm in arm, down an icy hill, Catullus, Chaucer, Clare, Dickinson, Betjeman and Larkin are among the contributors who help to demonstrate that people who believe that 'happiness writes white' have got it wrong.
