Download or read book A Manual of Practical Laboratory and Field Techniques in Palaeobiology written by O.R. Green and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The user This manual is designed for the use of geo-scientists with an interest and need in developing palaeobiological materials as a potential source of data. To meet this objective practical procedures have been formatted for use by both professional and semi professional students with an initial understanding of palaeo biological research aims as a primary source of scientific data. I have attempted to provide an explanation and understanding of practical procedures which may be required by students undertaking palaeobiological projects as part of a degree course. The layout of this manual should be particularly beneficial in the instruction and training of geotechnologists and museum preparators. Graduate students and scientists requiring an outline of a preparation procedure will also be able to use the manual as a reference from which to assess the suitability of a procedure. This manual is also intended for use by the "committed amateur". Many of the techniques described in this manual have been devised by non-palaeontologists, and developed from methods used in archaeology, zoology and botany, as well as other areas of geology. A considerable number of the methods can be undertaken by the amateur, and in the case of many of the field procedures, should be used. This will ensure that specimens and samples can be conserved in such a manner as to facilitate any later research, and not invalidate the results of subsequent geochemical analytical techniques which might be employed.
Download or read book Paleo s handbook The Ultimate Collection of Basic Paleo Recipes written by Shawn Rashid and published by Bull City Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before proceeding to the actual recipes, let's have a closer look to what the Paleo diet is and what are its main restrictions, as well as what you are allowed to eat and how balanced your meals should be. The Paleo diet, also known as the Caveman diet or Stone Age diet and sometimes Hunter-Gatherer diet, is a modern diet program based on what our ancestors used to eat. Basically, if our ancestors wouldn't recognize certain foods, then that specific food is not Paleo, therefore should be avoided. The diet consists in fish, meat coming from grass-fed animals, eggs, vegetables and fruits, fungi, roots and nuts and excludes grains, legumes, dairy products, salt and refined sugar, but also over processed oils, such as sunflower oil. The program was developed in the 70s and has gained many followers ever since, including myself. The idea is that despite all this technology, humans have barely changed and our body works in the same way as our ancestors did. For that reason, what was good for them then, it's just as good for us now, rather than the fatty, sugary diet we all have usually. The first great thing about it is that it recommends natural foods that have been little to no processed at all, clean meat and clean vegetables, free of any chemicals or additives, just like the Paleolithic man used to eat. The advantage of that is undeniable: improved health, detoxified body, healthier organs, a better functioning system, better looking skin, healthier gums and the list can go on. Once our body is free of all those toxins, fats and sugars, the difference is amazing. The Paleo diet is based on the idea of consuming more proteins than we currently are. A caveman used to eat at least 20% protein every day, while we barely reach 15% with a normal diet. The solution to this is more clean meat, seafood and plants rich in proteins. Apart from proteins, the Paleo diet also consists in foods rich in fibers, but not whole grains. Despite most beliefs, whole grains have less fibers than fresh vegetables for instance. Even fruits are richer in fibers than grains so the Paleo diet advices you to avoid them and choose fruits and vegetables instead. Fat takes a lot of our normal diet, but it has bad effects on our health. The Paleo diet includes fat as well, but the healthy kind, such as omega-3 and omega-6 found in extra virgin olive oil for instance, but also in coconut oil or ghee (clarified butter). Exclude other kind of fats such as butter, sunflower oil, margarine as they increase the risk of developing heart diseases. Our ancestors didn't use salt when cooking and in fact their cooking was little. They ate their food raw more than anything else and that brought them enough nutrients to function properly, have enough energy to hunt and look for food. Salt increases the risk of heart disease, kidney problems and high blood pressure. However, you don't have to cut it down completely, just reduce the amount of salt you use when cooking or buy food that has less salt as well. As an example, fast-food is literally loaded with sodium, but your homemade stew will not since you can control the ingredients and the way you cook it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new edition of the illustrated compendium that is “a gift to serious dinosaur enthusiasts” (Science). What do we know about dinosaurs, and how do we know it? How did they grow, move, eat, and reproduce? Were they warm-blooded or cold-blooded? How intelligent were they? How are the various groups of dinosaurs related to each other, and to other kinds of living and extinct vertebrates? What can the study of dinosaurs tell us about the process of evolution? And why did typical dinosaurs become extinct? These questions and more are addressed in this new, expanded edition of The Complete Dinosaur. Written by leading experts on the “fearfully great” reptiles, the book covers what we have learned about dinosaurs, from the earliest discoveries to the most recent controversies. Where scientific contention exists, the editors have let the experts agree to disagree. The Complete Dinosaur is a feast for serious dinosaur lovers, from the enthusiastic amateur to the professional paleontologist.

This book should be on the shelves of dinosaur freaks as well as those who need to know more about the paleobiology of extinct animals. It will be an invaluable library reference.” —American Reference Books Annual

By eating the right food, people are healthier. But can eating Paleo be tasty? In this all-new cookbook with 250 recipes and 75 photos, Cordain makes eating Paleo a pleasure, not a burden. Ranging from Cucumber Aqua Fresca to Fruit-Stuffed Top Loin Roast with Brandy Sauce, the recipes satisfy even the most finicky.
