Download or read book Texas Lost written by Andrew Sansom and published by Parks and Wildlife Foundation of Texas. This book was released on 1995 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In no other state is the identity of its people so closely tied to the land as it is in Texas. Texans have historically & passionately defined themselves through their sense of place. As one considers the remarkable diversity of the landscape of Texas & the array of cultures that have arisen from the land, the fierce individuality of the people is easy to understand. Today, the very foundation of that deep sense of who we are is threatened by forces that are changing the character of the land more rapidly & profoundly than at any other time since the introduction of agriculture. Few remnants of the real Texas remain, & the realities of public policy & finance in the nineties present an uncertain climate for protecting those natural treasures that have managed to survive. And some have survived. The best & most significant of them are presented in this book, along with a twenty-first century strategy for protecting them. If we want our children to understand what it means to be Texan, we can do no less. PUBLICATION DATE: OCTOBER 1995. 160 PAGE--FULL COLOR THROUGHOUT, HARDBACK COST: $39.95 ISBN#: 0-9647023-0-4.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the Malabar Coast of southern India, along the Arabian Sea, lies a range of mountains known as the Western Ghats, or Sahyadris. Far more ancient than the larger and better-known Himalayas to the north, the Sahyadris harbour the most intact rainforests in peninsular India. Countless species of plants and animals live here, many of which are found nowhere else on earth, and countless of which are still being discovered. Matching this incredible biological richness is the ethnic and cultural diversity of the Western Ghats. This book takes you on a visual journey through one of the last great places on earth - a place to be cherished, a wild heritage to be preserved for generations to come.
Download or read book Valuing Historic Environments written by Lisanne Gibson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together an interdisciplinary team of leading scholars to discuss frameworks of value in relation to the preservation of historic environments. Starting from the premise that heritage values are culturally and historically constructed, the book examines the effects of pluralist frameworks of value on how preservation is conceived. It questions the social and economic consequences of constructions of value and how to balance a responsive, democratic conception of heritage with the pressure to deliver on social and economic objectives. It also describes the practicalities of managing the uncertainty and fluidity of the widely varying conceptions of heritage.

Download or read book Uses of Heritage written by Laurajane Smith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-11-22 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining international case studies including USA, Asia, Australia and New Zealand, Laurajane Smith identifies and explores the use of heritage throughout the world. Challenging the idea that heritage value is self-evident, and that things must be preserved because they have an inherent importance, Smith forcefully demonstrates that heritage value is not inherent in physical objects or places, but rather that these objects and places are used to give tangibility to the values that underpin different communities and to assert and affirm these values. A practically grounded accessible examination of heritage as a cultural practice, The Uses of Heritage is global in its benefit to students and field professionals alike.

Download or read book Finishing the Race Human History Life and Race before Us written by Plammoottil V. Cherian and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-08-29 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FINISHING THE RACE Stimulating, theological, and packed with fascinating historical details of Human Race from a Biblical perspective, author's lively tour of the entire Bible traces the origin of human race from one man whose progeny spread to the entire earth, filled the earth, established their nations with set boundaries. Author establishes the historical account of creation challenging the concept of Darwinian Evolution which claims man is an evolutionary product. Author stresses that there is only One God who created the universe--the cosmos, the planets, stars, life, and the multitude of living species of organisms with the command endowed in their DNA, when God said, to herbs, plants, and animals to multiply "according to its kind," "according to their kind," which is the basis for biological variation and speciation. Whereas God's command to human beings was "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it," meaning there is only one single race of humanity. Author has a profound Christian vision of humanity's temporal and eternal destiny, and thus, he relates in Finishing the Race: In an age when truth is relative, and vanishing conscience, the nations are the crossroads, confused about the true direction as nations are estranged from God. The present culture is "as in the Days of Noah" quoting Jesus and citing world events and conditions as signs of the end. An end time scenario of world and the second coming of Christ when a northern and a southern army will clash in fierce battle over Jerusalem, the Holy City of God, the capital of the Messianic Kingdom. Not claiming any superiority, like many of the past and famous scientists like Galilei Galileo, Blaise Pascal, Isaac Newton, Louis Pasteur, Robert Boyle etc. Cherian attempt to convince his readers God is in control of human and world affairs, and natural events. Heaven and hell are not mysterious realms of imagination but true physical entities invisible to human eyes and calls the nations to submit to God who only is the answer to national, and global unrest that we see now.
