This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ohio Mycological Bulletin, 1903, Vol. 1 Next year. - Thanks are extended to all who have taken interest in the bulletin and mycological matters in general, and now also especi ally to those who have kindly sent the subscription for 1904! I have lately persuaded myself to say that the bulletin will be issued on the same basis next year, price 10 cents. This amount pays but a portion of the cash expense, but the generosity of interested persons with means will doubtless enable me to defray all costs. Some friends in foreign countries have requested the copies as issued, and for them I am obliged to fix the price at 25 cents, to cover postage. Those sending 10 cents now will receive all the 1903 Numbers issued - as long as copies are available. The above announcement has been called forth prematurely though the contribution box is already open; other numbers of the bul letin will appear this year. The poli-y-pores, or pore-fungi. - Tl'lis large group is called Pol-y' - oo-ra-cc-ae (sound the y like short because there is. A honey-combed fruiting surface on the lower side of the plants; in other words, there are many pores, which is the real meaning of the name of the group. They are also called Bracket-fungi or Shelf-fungi, alluding to the general form and method of attachment to trees, logs and stumps, where most of the species are to be found. They are the com monest of all fungi and everyone who ever went to the woods has seen them. The cuts shown will give a fair idea of some of the striking forms - but the subject will be taken up in a later bulletin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ohio University Bulletin, Vol. 1: November, 1903 A Method of study may be defined as a way by which the mind approaches and masters a given subject; a method of instruction, as a way in which the subject is presented. It is clear that the method must be determined largely by a proper understanding of the two main elements involved, namely, the active mind and the subjects of instruction, and while it is true, and probably well that it is true, that most practice remains unanalyzed in the mind of him who practices, and while it is equally true that sound practice is unerringly associated with sound living and thinking, nevertheless the basis of strength and source of progress rest in the well-reasoned demonstration of truth. A good method is susceptible of defense, a process strengthening to the intellect as well as to the will. It is our purpose, briefly, to set forth the two elements referred to, out of whose mutual relationships springs method, by which it may be explained, and in which it finds its justification. All human life is built upon the same general pattern and proceeds to the realization of its destiny by the same general paths. The soul finds itself dwelling in a wondrous piece of clay. This mechanism needs no description for the present purpose beyond saying that it serves the double function of affording communication with a world as wonderful as itself, of light and shade, of color and form, of sound and sense, of heat and cold, streaming in from every side, and of serving as a fulcrum for the operations of its inhabitant. But of this inner being a fuller account must be given. Its entrance upon life is attended with an apparently almost complete identification with the body. The process of its separation from this connection until at the last it becomes almost complete, is as interesting a story as has ever been written.

That the grad uate of normal schools have for the most part, been employed as elementary teach ers, and in subordinate positions in second ary schools, is too well known to make it worth while to dwell upon it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ohio University Bulletin, Vol. 1: December, 1893 Between 1880 and 1889 the annual ap propriations were nearly twelve million francs. Some of this came from the universities in the form of endowments and fees of various kinds, but the revenue from this source never amounted to one third of the expenditures. In addition to these annual grants there were expended during the years above named, about 99, francs for new buildings, of which was contributed by the State, somewhat more than by cities, and the balance - less than one million francs - by the departments. There is considerable difference in the liberality exhibited by the cities. Bordeaux, for instance, expended about three millions and received less than one million sub vention. Lyons appropriated more than seven million francs and received but two from the general government. All France has shared in this spirit of restoration and reconstruction. Paris, as would be ex pected, takes the lead, and the new Sor bonne is one of the ornaments of the city; next in order come Bordeaux and Lyons.

Book Twentieth Century Building Materials

Download or read book Twentieth Century Building Materials written by Thomas C. Jester and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the concluding decades of the twentieth century, the historic preservation community increasingly turned its attention to modern buildings, including bungalows from the 1930s, gas stations and diners from the 1940s, and office buildings and architectural homes from the 1950s. Conservation efforts, however, were often hampered by a lack of technical information about the products used in these structures, and to fill this gap Twentieth-Century Building Materials was developed by the U.S. Department of the Interior’s National Park Service and first published in 1995. Now, this invaluable guide is being reissued—with a new preface by the book’s original editor. With more than 250 illustrations, including a full-color photographic essay, the volume remains an indispensable reference on the history and conservation of modern building materials. Thirty-seven essays written by leading experts offer insights into the history, manufacturing processes, and uses of a wide range of materials, including glass block, aluminum, plywood, linoleum, and gypsum board. Readers will also learn about how these materials perform over time and discover valuable conservation and repair techniques. Bibliographies and sources for further research complete the volume. The book is intended for a wide range of conservation professionals including architects, engineers, conservators, and material scientists engaged in the conservation of modern buildings, as well as scholars in related disciplines.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A “brilliant [and] entrancing” (The Guardian) journey into the hidden lives of fungi—the great connectors of the living world—and their astonishing and intimate roles in human life, with the power to heal our bodies, expand our minds, and help us address our most urgent environmental problems. “Grand and dizzying in how thoroughly it recalibrates our understanding of the natural world.”—Ed Yong, author of An Immense World ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR—Time, BBC Science Focus, The Daily Mail, Geographical, The Times, The Telegraph, New Statesman, London Evening Standard, Science Friday When we think of fungi, we likely think of mushrooms. But mushrooms are only fruiting bodies, analogous to apples on a tree. Most fungi live out of sight, yet make up a massively diverse kingdom of organisms that supports and sustains nearly all living systems. Fungi provide a key to understanding the planet on which we live, and the ways we think, feel, and behave. In the first edition of this mind-bending book, Sheldrake introduced us to this mysterious but massively diverse kingdom of life. This exquisitely designed volume, abridged from the original, features more than one hundred full-color images that bring the spectacular variety, strangeness, and beauty of fungi to life as never before. Fungi throw our concepts of individuality and even intelligence into question. They are metabolic masters, earth makers, and key players in most of life’s processes. They can change our minds, heal our bodies, and even help us remediate environmental disaster. By examining fungi on their own terms, Sheldrake reveals how these extraordinary organisms—and our relationships with them—are changing our understanding of how life works. Winner of the Wainwright Prize, the Royal Society Science Book Prize, and the Guild of Food Writers Award • Shortlisted for the British Book Award • Longlisted for the Rathbones Folio Prize

Book How to Change Your Mind

Download or read book How to Change Your Mind written by Michael Pollan and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now on Netflix as a 4-part documentary series! “Pollan keeps you turning the pages . . . cleareyed and assured.” —New York Times A #1 New York Times Bestseller, New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018, and New York Times Notable Book A brilliant and brave investigation into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs--and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research. A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan's "mental travelogue" is not just psychedelic drugs but also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.
