Book excerpt: Explore and understand the natural and human wonders of our planet Now in its third edition, this landmark encyclopedia both celebrates our planet and explains the science underpinning the forces and processes that have made and shaped it. Artworks, photographs, terrain models, and maps are used in combination to capture the beauty and power of landscapes and natural events and to show their hidden sides, explaining for example how an earthquake is triggered and how burning fossil fuels is driving a climate emergency. Directory sections placed throughout the book provide systematic and in-depth reference guides to core scientific information, such as more than 100 types of rocks and minerals. Similar sections contain visual profiles of some of the undisputed wonders of the natural world, from the Andes and Himalayas to the Grand Canyon, Sahara Desert, and Amazon Rainforest. Thoroughly revised and updated to include new and spectacular landscape photography and capture the latest developments in fast-changing areas of geology and Earth science—including Earth history, climate change, and urban geography—this is an indispensable visual reference book for anyone who wants to understand how our planet works.

Download or read book The Century of Space Science written by J.A. Bleeker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001 with total page 1002 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 20th century can truly be called the `Century of Space Science', for it was in the 20th century that the multidisciplinary study of space science (as opposed to astronomy) was conceived. Today, as we start a new century of discovery, we are able to cast our perspective back in order to chronicle how the field began, review how it developed, and discuss how it reached its current levels. We are able to overview the historical development and to put early discoveries in context, to document our current understanding and to look forward to the coming century with some degree of optimism. One of the most attractive features of this young discipline is that many of the original pioneers and key players involved are still available to describe their field. Hence, at this point in history we are in a unique position to gain first-hand insight into the field and its development. To this end, The Century of Space Science , a scholarly, authoritative, reference book presents a chapter-by-chapter retrospective of space science as studied in the 20th century. The level is academic and focuses on key discoveries, how these were arrived at, their scientific consequences and how these discoveries advanced the thoughts of the key players involved. With over 90 world-class contributors, such as James Van Allen, Cornelis de Jager, Eugene Parker, Reimar L??st, and Ernst Stuhlinger, and with a Foreword by Lodewijk Woltjer (past ESO Director General), this book will be immensely useful to readers in the fields of space science, astronomy, and the history of science. Both academic institutions and researchers will find that this major reference work makes an invaluable addition to their collection. The work is published in two large-format volumes and contains colour images throughout. It includes several appendices (for example a basic chronology of the field and a complete list of every space science mission ever launched) and is extensively and comprehensively indexed. The scientific editorial team consists of Johan A.M. Bleeker (of SRON, The Netherlands), Johannes Geiss (of the International Space Science Institute, Berne) and Martin Huber (of ESA) and history consultant Arturo Russo (of the University of Palermo, Italy).
Download or read book The Extractive Metallurgy of Gold written by John C. Yannopoulos and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of gold begins in antiquity. Bits of gold were found in Spanish caves that were used by Paleolithic people around 40,000 B.C. Gold is the "child of Zeus," wrote the Greek poet Pindar. The Romans called the yellow metal aurum ("shining dawn"). Gold is the first element and first metal mentioned in the Bible, where it appears in more than 400 references. This book provides the most thorough and up-to-date information available on the extraction of gold from its ores, starting with the miner alogy of gold ores and ending with details of refining. Each chapter con cludes with a list of references including full publication information for all works cited. Sources preceded by an asterisk (*) are especially recom mended for more in-depth study. Nine appendices, helpful to both students and operators, complement the text. I have made every attempt to keep abreast of recent technical literature on the extraction of gold. Original publications through the spring of 1989 have been reviewed and cited where appropriate. This book is intended as a reference for operators, managers, and designers of gold mills and for professional prospectors. It is also designed as a textbook for extractive metallurgy courses. I am indebted to the Library of Engineering Societies in New York, which was the main source of the references in the book. The assistance of my son, Panos, in typing the manuscript is gratefully acknowledged.

Download or read book In My Egotistical Opinion written by Harlen Koen and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What we do in life often does come back to us. This is not all that comes our way in life. We can only control what we initiate. In My Egotistical Opinion is a collection of what author Harlen Koen would want to say to his children if he had teenage or older children. This book is for teenagers, young adults, adults, and seniors. Hopefully those who read this book will not have to spend a lifetime to learn what he learned the hard way. It includes talk about sex, narcotics, alcohol, abortion, suicide, the Golden Rule, and the Jesus freak, just to mention a few. The theme of the Golden Rule runs throughout this book. It is not just the Golden Rule as a cute rule. Sometimes it is a cold hard fact of life. In My Egotistical Opinion points out that what we do does in fact come back to us. This is not all that will cross our path in life. Bad things happen to good people. Sometimes we are just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Sometimes we are affected by what others have done, regardless of what we have done. The Golden Rule is simple. Life is complicated. The least often becomes what is most significant, so we need to pay attention to the little things. Two things that seem contradictory do not require one to be false and the other true. Sometimes both are true.

Book excerpt: When growth requires the baptism of blood, when a road requires the accumulation of bones, when a grain of sand can shake the heavens, when a drop of water can water the earth... When a person lifted his hand to pick up the stars, the sun and moon, or the rivers and mountains with his hands covered ... In this era where all races coexist, the legend had been erased from history. At the limit of a certain period, the legend of the Ji Realm had been opened ... In this life, a young man covered in blood crawled out of the Blood Cauldron. A story of exploration, conquest, slaughter, rise to prominence, hot-blooded, and a lone emperor began to play out ... The survival of the apocalypse, the vicissitudes of life, the struggles in battle, the emotions between life and death... The world was sad, but it was also boiling. When the myth finally lifted the veil of mystery, was it as perfect as you thought it was?
