Download or read book Lothagam written by Meave G. Leakey and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few aspects of American military history have been as vigorously debated as Harry Truman's decision to use atomic bombs against Japan. In this carefully crafted volume, Michael Kort describes the wartime circumstances and thinking that form the context for the decision to use these weapons, surveys the major debates related to that decision, and provides a comprehensive collection of key primary source documents that illuminate the behavior of the United States and Japan during the closing days of World War II. Kort opens with a summary of the debate over Hiroshima as it has evolved since 1945. He then provides a historical overview of thye events in question, beginning with the decision and program to build the atomic bomb. Detailing the sequence of events leading to Japan's surrender, he revisits the decisive battles of the Pacific War and the motivations of American and Japanese leaders. Finally, Kort examines ten key issues in the discussion of Hiroshima and guides readers to relevant primary source documents, scholarly books, and articles.

Download or read book The Evolution of Language written by W. Tecumseh Fitch and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 625 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Language, more than anything else, is what makes us human. It appears that no communication system of equivalent power exists elsewhere in the animal kingdom. Any normal human child will learn a language based on rather sparse data in the surrounding world, while even the brightest chimpanzee, exposed to the same environment, will not. Why not? How, and why, did language evolve in our species and not in others? Since Darwin's theory of evolution, questions about the origin of language have generated a rapidly-growing scientific literature, stretched across a number of disciplines, much of it directed at specialist audiences. The diversity of perspectives - from linguistics, anthropology, speech science, genetics, neuroscience and evolutionary biology - can be bewildering. Tecumseh Fitch cuts through this vast literature, bringing together its most important insights to explore one of the biggest unsolved puzzles of human history.

Download or read book Two New Oligocene Desmostylians and a Discussion of Tethytherian Systematics written by Daryl P. Domning and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new genus, comprising two new species of desmostylians, is described from marine Oligocene deposits of the Pacific Northwest. Behemotops proteus, new genus, new species, is based on an immature mandibular ramus and apparently associated skeletal fragments from the middle or (more likely) upper Oligocene lower part of the Pysht Formation of Clallam County, Washington. A related new species, Behemotops emlongi, is founded on a mandibular ramus of an old individual and a mandibular fragment with canine tusk from the uppermost Oligocene (early Arikareean equivalent) Yaquina Formation of Lincoln County, Oregon. The two new species are the most primitive known desmostylians and compare favorably with the primitive Eocene proboscideans Anthracobune and Moeritherium, and to the still more primitive tethythere Minchenella from the Paleocene of China.For many years the Desmostylia were widely regarded as members of the mammalian order Sirenia before being accepted as a taxon coordinate with the Sirenia and Proboscidea (Reinhart, 1953). On the basis of cladistic analysis we go a step further and regard the Desmostylia as more closely related to Proboscidea than to Sirenia because the Desmostylia and Proboscidea are interpreted herein to share a more recent common ancestor than either order does with the Sirenia. This analysis also suggests that the common ancestor of the Proboscidea and Desmostylia (but not the Sirenia) had suppressed P5 and the original last molar. These characters may be convergent with some other mammals. The Superorder Tokotheria McKenna, 1975, was originally thought to be characterized by loss of both P5 and M3. However, because early sirenians do not show these losses, they may have occurred independently in the common ancestor of proboscideans and desmostylians and in various other tokotheres.The late Paleocene genus Minchenella Zhang, 1980, from China, is a suitable candidate to be the common ancestor of both the Desmostylia and the Proboscidea. It possesses a small entoconid II on M3. The Eocene genus Lammidhania Gingerich, 1977, from Pakistan, and the late Paleocene and/or early Eocene Chinese and Mongolian phenacolophids had not acquired an entoconid II on M3 but are otherwise similar to Minchenella and the anthracobunids. The Asiatic occurrence of phenacolophids, Lammidhania, Minchenella, and anthracobunids suggests an Asian origin for the Proboscidea and is in accord with the exclusively Pacific distribution of the Desmostylia.We believe that desmostylians were amphibious herbivores that fed on marine algae and angiosperms, and that at least the earlier taxa depended to a large extent on plants exposed in the intertidal zone.
