Download or read book Journey to The East A Hitchhiker s Guide to the Middle Kingdom written by Tom Lightner and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey to the East is the story of a western traveler with a very limited Chinese vocabulary traveling in China. The author took small trips to large and mid-sized cities trying to learn enough about communications and culture to be able to travel freely in China. After tiring of organized tours, he adapted to trains, buses, taxis, and black cars which allowed him to see culture and sights beyond the reach of most western tourists. He found that adding hitchhiking to the mix of transportation modes allowed broader access to remote sites. The author tested his cultural and hitchhiking lessons learned in small trips by traveling cross country. He followed the same route that former NPR correspondent Rob Gifford traveled in "China Road", but from west to east, from Kazakhstan to China's east coast at Shanghai. The book reports on the travels and how the lessons learned succeeded or failed.

Download or read book Nature s Palette written by David Lee and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-09-03 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though he didn’t realize it at the time, David Lee began this book twenty-five years ago as he was hiking in the mountains outside Kuala Lumpur. Surrounded by the wonders of the jungle, Lee found his attention drawn to one plant in particular, a species of fern whose electric blue leaves shimmered amidst the surrounding green. The evolutionary wonder of the fern’s extravagant beauty filled Lee with awe—and set him on a career-long journey to understand everything about plant colors. Nature’s Palette is the fully ripened fruit of that journey—a highly illustrated, immensely entertaining exploration of the science of plant color. Beginning with potent reminders of how deeply interwoven plant colors are with human life and culture—from the shifting hues that told early humans when fruits and vegetables were edible to the indigo dyes that signified royalty for later generations—Lee moves easily through details of pigments, the evolution of color perception, the nature of light, and dozens of other topics. Through a narrative peppered with anecdotes of a life spent pursuing botanical knowledge around the world, he reveals the profound ways that efforts to understand and exploit plant color have influenced every sphere of human life, from organic chemistry to Renaissance painting to the highly lucrative orchid trade. Lavishly illustrated and packed with remarkable details sure to delight gardeners and naturalists alike, Nature’s Palette will enchant anyone who’s ever wondered about red roses and blue violets—or green thumbs.
