Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lands of Nod is a fantasy book for all ages, with many characters and turns and twists to it. It is the beginning book of a trilogy. Far, far away beyond the foaming 7 seas, beneath the countless glistening stars, in the endless eternal skies, imbedded in the realms of unconsciousness lies the timeless ever-changing lands of Nod. Surrounded by a fierce raging ocean, covered in a dreamy mist, the land holds many tales of lore and mystery. She is filled with the gurgles of sparking mountain streams, lush green rolling hills, grassy knolls, craggy cliffs, majestic mountains, barren wastelands and deep forests of whispering pines. You cannot travel there by land, or by sea, only by way of the deep abyss of your unconsciousness, through the tunnels and passages of your dreams, beyond the realms of reality, deep in the shadows of fantasy. Your journey will bring you upon the many awesome wonders, creatures and beasties of Nod; wherein resides the Horks (a very distant relative to the leprechaun).

Bjork had become a bit disoriented as he came to a sudden turn and looking to his right and left he saw two distinct paths. For the life of him he could not remember which path to take.

Download or read book Mousterian Lithic Technology written by Steven L. Kuhn and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human beings depend more on technology than any other animal--the use of tools and weapons is vital to the survival of our species. What processes of biocultural evolution led to this unique dependence? Steven Kuhn turns to the Middle Paleolithic (Mousterian) and to artifacts associated with Neanderthals, the most recent human predecessors. His study examines the ecological, economic, and strategic factors that shaped the behavior of Mousterian tool makers, revealing how these hominids brought technological knowledge to bear on the basic problems of survival. Kuhn's main database consists of assemblages of stone artifacts from four caves and a series of open-air localities situated on the western coast of the Italian peninsula. Variations in the ways stone tools were produced, maintained, and discarded demonstrate how Mousterian hominids coped with the problems of keeping mobile groups supplied with the artifacts and raw materials they used on a daily basis. Changes through time in lithic technology were closely tied to shifting strategies for hunting and collecting food. Some of the most provocative findings of this study stem from observations about the behavioral flexibility of Mousterian populations and the role of planning in foraging and technology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the Love of Nature is an intimate collection of essays written by a man whose love of nature dates back to his earliest days. These travel stories span a range of global ecosystems, with an emphasis on Alaska, a site of great delight for the author. Here is a love letter to the natural world that begins around the ponds, forests, and meadows of a childhood and journeys through a lifelong career as an educator keen on sharing not only passion for the living parts of our planet, but respect and knowledge, as well. Marty Dodge focuses on situations where he had the opportunity to share his informed appreciation for the complexity and beauty of actual places. He describes adventures where, as a college instructor, he led student groups through the Florida Everglades, Costa Rica, Belize, and Alaska. And his adventures didn’t stop when his working life did; Dodge’s post-retirement travel was just as vigorous, and his documented tributes include spirited descriptions of visits to Nepal, Chile, the western United States, and, as ever, his adored Alaska.
