Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railways and Locomotion It is, perhaps, unnecessary to adduce examples of inventions of which the origin and early history are entirely unknown; we may well suppose some of the arts of life to have been taught to man, not devised by him; we know that the use of skins for clothing was the subject of Divine suggestion. The ark, which may possibly have been the model for the earliest ships, was built by the directions of the Almighty. The common implements of husbandry, the management of horses, the use of wheeled chariots and waggons, the measurement of time, - all these date from a period of the world's history so remote that we are constrained to regard them with a degree of doubt, whether they may not have been born with the mind, rather than discovered by its powers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Animal Mechanism, Vol. 11: A Treatise on Terrestrial and Aerial Locomotion Living beings have been frequently and in every age compared to machines, but it is only in the present day that the bearing and the justice Of this comparison are fully comprehensible. NO doubt, the physiologists Of Old discerned levers, pulleys, cordage, pumps, and valves In the animal organism, as in the machine. The working Of all this machinery is called Animal Mechanics in a great number Of standard treatises. But these passive organs have need of a motor; it is life, it was said, which set all these mechanisms going, and it was believed that thus there was authoritatively established an inviolable barrier between inanimate and animate machines.

Download or read book Locomotion written by Jacqueline Woodson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2004-12-29 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for the National Book Award When Lonnie was seven years old, his parents died in a fire. Now he's eleven, and he still misses them terribly. And he misses his little sister, Lili, who was put into a different foster home because "not a lot of people want boys-not foster boys that ain't babies." But Lonnie hasn't given up. His foster mother, Miss Edna, is growing on him. She's already raised two sons and she seems to know what makes them tick. And his teacher, Ms. Marcus, is showing him ways to put his jumbled feelings on paper. Told entirely through Lonnie's poetry, we see his heartbreak over his lost family, his thoughtful perspective on the world around him, and most of all his love for Lili and his determination to one day put at least half of their family back together. Jacqueline Woodson's poignant story of love, loss, and hope is lyrically written and enormously accessible.
