Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on the Total Eclipse of the Sun, August 17-18, 1868, Vol. 37: As Observed at Guntoor, Under Instructions From the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for India For this purpose I called on Captain davis, Agent Of the Peninsular and Oriental Company, to enlist his services; and at his house was for tunate enough to meet an old companion, Major napier, Of the Royal Artillery. Both these gentlemen promised their aid; and I learnt from them that Colonel addison and Major weir, of h.m.'s 2nd Queen's Royal Regiment, would be likely to be valuable coadjutors. It being then too late to look them up, I asked Major napier to broach the subject, and promised to write as soon as I could. This I did, and it will save time if I say at once what my recommendations were. Ist. I recommended that they Should endeavour to make drawings Of the corona and appendages as accurately as possible, and urged that, if two Observers were available, two sketches, made independently Of the same part (say a quadrant) would be more valuable than single sketches of large portions which could not confirm and interpret each other. 2nd. I undertook to send, if wanted, a polariscope, and I did accordingly send one on savart's principle, with instructions which I thought would be sufficient for its use. 3rd. I suggested that Colonel addison should address Mr. Huggins as to getting a spectroscope for hand use, which he did with a favourable result. I hope, therefore, that there will be some results from Colonel addison's Observations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Volcanoes are essential elements in the delicate global balance of elemental forces that govern both the dynamic evolution of the Earth and the nature of Life itself. Without volcanic activity, life as we know it would not exist on our planet. Although beautiful to behold, volcanoes are also potentially destructive, and understanding their nature is critical to prevent major loss of life in the future. Richly illustrated with over 300 original color photographs and diagrams the book is written in an informal manner, with minimum use of jargon, and relies heavily on first-person, eye-witness accounts of eruptive activity at both "red" (effusive) and "grey" (explosive) volcanoes to illustrate the full spectrum of volcanic processes and their products. Decades of teaching in university classrooms and fieldwork on active volcanoes throughout the world have provided the authors with unique experiences that they have distilled into a highly readable textbook of lasting value. Questions for Thought, Study, and Discussion, Suggestions for Further Reading, and a comprehensive list of source references make this work a major resource for further study of volcanology. Volcanoes maintains three core foci: Global perspectives explain volcanoes in terms of their tectonic positions on Earth and their roles in earth history Environmental perspectives describe the essential role of volcanism in the moderation of terrestrial climate and atmosphere Humanitarian perspectives discuss the major influences of volcanoes on human societies. This latter is especially important as resource scarcities and environmental issues loom over our world, and as increasing numbers of people are threatened by volcanic hazards Readership Volcanologists, advanced undergraduate, and graduate students in earth science and related degree courses, and volcano enthusiasts worldwide.
