Book Description
Oliver P. Pearson’s studies on mammalian biology remain standard reading for ecologists, physiologists, taxonomists, and biogeographers. Reflecting this, the papers gathered here continue to expand our understanding of the ecology and evolution of subterranean mammals, and of ecology, taxonomy, and biogeography of Neotropical mammals, a group that was central to the latter half of Pearson’s career.

The Quintessential Jesus of Nazareth
Author: Allison Sledge
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1463474202
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
The Quintessential Jesus of Nazareth: An Astrological Interpretation of The Messiah's Natal Chart is one of the most profound metaphysical books ever written in terms of exploring all aspects of the Universe in relation to Jesus Christ. The Bible omits seventeen years of His life, and not much is know about Jesus as a person. What were His thoughts, His Moods, His concept of Self? How did He feel about money, treasures communications, family, health, humor, service, romance, talent and love? What were His fears, His joys, His inner spiruality? What were His views on friendships, death, addiction and pain? This book takes the readers through these phases that made Him who He was. It is based on a natal astrological chart and the day of His birth being March 19th, 7 BC. Because there is no true and accurate date of His exact birth, this date was chosen for many reasons, especially Edgar Cayce's reading of March 19th being the day He was born. Many people have their own versions and opinions based on their own understanding of Jesus, yet this book was written to open the minds of limited thinking, whether one agrees or disagrees with the concepts . It is with that attitude of inclusiveness rather than exclusiveness that the Author anticipates great discussions arising among people of all walks of life, after reading this book. It is a must have for everyone's bookshelves, to be sure.

Literature 1988, Part 2
Author: Astronomisches Rechen-Institut
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662123673
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 1308
Book Description
From the reviews: "Astronomy and Astrophysics Abstracts has appeared in semi-annual volumes since 1969 and it has already become one of the fundamental publications in the fields of astronomy, astrophysics and neighbouring sciences. It is the most important English-language abstracting journal in the mentioned branches. ...The abstracts are classified under more than a hundred subject categories, thus permitting a quick survey of the whole extended material. The AAA is a valuable and important publication for all students and scientists working in the fields of astronomy and related sciences. As such it represents a necessary ingredient of any astronomical library all over the world." Space Science Reviews#1 "Dividing the whole field plus related subjects into 108 categories, each work is numbered and most are accompanied by brief abstracts. Fairly comprehensive cross-referencing links relevant papers to more than one category, and exhaustive author and subject indices are to be found at the back, making the catalogues easy to use. The series appears to be so complete in its coverage and always less than a year out of date that I shall certainly have to make a little more space on those shelves for future volumes."

Languages : en
Pages : 483
Book Description
For countless millennia, the dwarves of the have defended the stone gateway into Girdlegard. Many and varied foes have hurled themselves against the portal and died attempting to breach it. No man or beast has ever succeeded. Until now. . . Abandoned as a child, Tungdil the blacksmith labors contentedly in the land of Ionandar, the only dwarf in a kingdom of men. Although he does not want for friends, Tungdil is very much aware that he is alone -- indeed, he has not so much as set eyes on another dwarf. But all that is about to change. Sent out into the world to deliver a message and reacquaint himself with his people, the young foundling finds himself thrust into a battle for which he has not been trained. Not only his own safety, but the life of every man, woman and child in Girdlegard depends upon his ability to embrace his heritage. Although he has many unanswered questions, Tungdil is certain of one thing: no matter where he was raised, he is a true dwarf. And no one has ever questioned the courage of the Dwarves.

The Quintessential Kg
Author: Kemp Gregory
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595384609
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
In this volume, the author has included 130 poems that have both appeared in nine manuscripts he has written and in 40 magazines that have accepted his work. In this way, Kemp Gregory has attempted to give a representative sampling of his life-long commitment to the "sullen craft and art" he has been committed to since his junior year in college (1968). However, each piece has been chosen not simply to be "representative." Such an attempt is ultimately sterile. The author likes the poems chosen, and he has considered the responses of many readers who have enjoyed particular poems in this collection. The author hopes that The Quintessential kg will find some new readers who love poetry and the intense, nuanced appreciation of existence, in both its positive and negative aspects, that poetry, above all, seems to give the reader who is unafraid to face the complexities of truth.
