Chris Ware Jimmy Corrigan:The Smartest Kid on Eart

Chris Ware Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth Graphic novel capolavoro! Sebbene non fosse nelle intenzioni dell'autore della presente pubblicazione produrre un'opera che alcuno potesse considerare "difficile", "ermetica" o, ancor peggio, "impenetrabile", è sorto all'attenzione del nostro consiglio di ricerca che alcuni lettori, per via di una (interamente scusabile) ignoranza di certe mode che scorrono lungo gli affluenti della "cultura giovanile d'avanguardia" di oggi, potrebbero ritrovarsi sprovvisti dei mezzi per intrattenere un dialogo semantico soddisfacente con il teatro pittografico ivi offerto. Sebbene il grosso dei principi e delle regole che lo governano siano essenzialmente intuitive, gli editori hanno ritenuto utile offrire una guida rudimentale intorno a modifiche e/o adattamenti di detti principi e regole qui in atto allo scopo di adattarsi a questa inedita forma di dramma immaginario. Naturalmente, se il lettore o la lettrice dovesse già trovarsi a suo agio con tali meccanismi, avendo già dedicato una quantità importante del suo tempo alla lettura dei contenuti del presente volume, il lettore o la lettrice è senza meno incoraggiato a sorvolare su questa introduzione per procedere direttamente con l'opera "in sé e per sé".

Integrated Assessment of Ecosystem Health

Integrated Assessment of Ecosystem Health

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Scow, Kate M. / Scow, K. M., PUBLISHER: CRC Press, The new approach to ecosystem health is proactive. As a result, the scope of environmental studies is growing and the methods are evolving. Integrated Assessment of Ecosystem Health aggressively broadens the range of ecotoxicology to include its related fields. The book begins with John Cairns, Jr.'s predictions and recommendations for the future ecotoxicology: New goals must lead to new techniques.... the field of ecotoxicology is in the early stages of a major paradigm shift that is driven by three interrelated forces: 1) heightened interest in sustainable use of the planet, 2) protection of ecosystem, and 3) the shift from emphasis on avoiding deleterious effects to maintaining them in robust health. Later chapters explore the integration of data, intrinsic remediation studies and the ever- increasing number of associated disciplines that are improving our environmental potential. Methodology, itself, is considered as an evolving tool, always in need examination and revision. Cairns, and his co-authors all advocate a constructive, offensive new form of ecoscience. The consensus of scientists is clear: toxic threat and, especially, habitat destruction are the most important environmentl issues, today. The mandate from Integrated Assessment of Ecosystem Health is also decisive: expand the parameters of ecoscience. The future of life on earth depends upon our ability to grow and learn.

Paradise Lost

Paradise Lost

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Milton, John / Orgel, Stephen / Goldberg, Jonathan, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, From almost the moment of its publication in , Paradise Lost was considered a classic. It is difficult now to appreciate how audacious an undertaking the epic represents, and how astonishing its immediate and continued success was. Over the course of twelve books John Milton wrote an epic poem that would "justify the ways of God to men," a mission that required a complex drama, the source of which is both historical and deeply personal. While the struggle for ascendancy between God and Satan is played out across hell, heaven, and earth in the work, the consequences of the Fall are all too humanly tragic, with pride, ambition, and aspiration being the motivating forces. In this new edition derived from their acclaimed Oxford Authors text, Stephen Orgel and Jonathan Goldberg discuss the complexity of Milton's Paradise Lost in a new introduction. They contextualize Milton and his poem, discuss its structure and language, and provide a summary of critical responses to the poem since its initial publication. They also include on-page notes to explain the poem's language and allusions. This modernized edition of one of the most influential works in the English language will truly bring to light Milton's genius for today's reader.

Lockdown: Escape from Furnace

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, Alexander Gordon, PUBLISHER: Square Fish, Furnace Penitentiary: the world's most secure prison for young offenders, buried a mile beneath the earth's surface. Convicted of a murder he didn't commit, sentenced to life without parole, "new fish" Alex Sawyer knows he has two choices: find a way out, or resign himself to a death behind bars, in the darkness at the bottom of the world. Except in Furnace, death is the least of his worries. Soon Alex discovers that the prison is a place of pure evil, where inhuman creatures in gas masks stalk the corridors at night, where giants in black suits drag screaming inmates into the shadows, where deformed beasts can be heard howling from the blood-drenched tunnels below. And behind everything is the mysterious, all-powerful warden, a man as cruel and dangerous as the devil himself, whose unthinkable acts have consequences that stretch far beyond the walls of the prison. Together with a bunch of inmates--some innocent kids who have been framed, others cold-blooded killers--Alex plans an escape. But as he starts to uncover the truth about Furnace's deeper, darker purpose, Alex's actions grow ever more dangerous, and he must risk everything to expose this nightmare that's hidden from the eyes of the world.

In Distant Fields

In Distant Fields

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bingham, Charlotte, PUBLISHER: Bantam Press, Her wonderful new story, sure to be another bestseller, is about love and heartbreak, but most importantly, the remarkable nature of female friendship. Christmas : Kitty and Lady Partita are best friends despite vastly different backgrounds. Partita has invited her friend, Kitty to stay at her ancestral home, Borders Castle. The grandeur of Partita's family seat is in stark contrast to Kitty's home in London where she and her mother, Violet, struggle to maintain appearances despite Kitty's father gambling away the family money. Kitty is introduced to the aristocracy -- a world she finds fascinatingly decorative and theatrical. She is enthralled by it, and desperately wants to be part of this way of life that is so far removed from the genteel poverty in which she and her mother are forced to exist. But war breaks out, not only irrevocably changing society, but also the lives of these two beautiful young women. The headstrong Partita and down-to-earth Kitty become nurses, caring selflessly for men who have been horrifically injured in the trenches. In Distant Fields is about the mothers and daughters, sisters and wives who are left holding things together on the home front and caring for their men. But, more importantly, it's about the nature of female friendship. "From the Trade Paperback edition."

So It Begins

So It Begins

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gina Maria, PUBLISHER: Trafford Publishing, A holocaust is coming to Earth in the form of a deadly virus-one that will bring pandemonium and disaster to all. To survive, a wealthy billionaire named Simion builds a gigantic complex in the side of a mountain. He becomes a modern-day Noah, bringing in two of each living creature and providing protection for all those working on the top-secret project. When the day of reckoning arrives, one of Simion's key people, Zack, is home attending to his father's funeral. Too far away to make it to the complex, Zack has no choice but to stay put and watch the destruction around him. Incredibly, Zack discovers he is immune to the virus. He finds six other survivors, and the small group is determined to stay alive, no matter the obstacles they face. The group begins the long, arduous journey to find the compound, but as the years pass and Zack grows more and more confused as to its exact location, hope begins to run out. Yet before his death, Zack passes on the information to his children; now it is up to them to find Simion's complex. Only then will the future of the world be secure. Unique in scope, "So It Begins" is a riveting tale of how one individual's foresight and intellect becomes mankind's last hope.

The Departure: God's Next Catastrophic Intervention Into

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: James, Terry / Missler, Chuck / Horn, Thomas, PUBLISHER: Defender, As the world races toward its momentous end-times encounter with God, cascading fulfillment of Bible Prophecy clearly points to the catching away of the saints -- an event popularly known as the Rapture of the Church. Specific circumstances, which were prophesied to occur in the days just before this Departure, would appear as signs of the nearing moment, including: - The emergence of a new global order and global government. - Technological developments making possible the Mark of the Beast. - Apocalyptic turmoil in the Middle East, pointing toward nuclear Armageddon. - Global fascination with occult, demonic, and otherworldly manifestations. - Departure from the faith giving space to false doctrines. - Worldwide violence, upheaval, like it was in the days of Noah. In The Departure: God's Next Catastrophic Intervention into Earth's History, leading national and international researchers, scholars, authors, and speakers share their specialized knowledge about what you can expect in the coming days, and, more importantly, what you can do to be prepared for the Rapture of the Church.

Russia: A Journey to the Heart of a Land and Its People

Russia: A Journey to the Heart of a Land and Its People

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dimbleby, Jonathan, PUBLISHER: BBC Books, Russia is a country in transition. It is a land of exotic treasures with a culture rich in world-famous artists, writers and musicians. It is a swiftly modernizing economy yet still a place of corruption, suppression, and secrecy, shaking off its recent, bloody past of Communist dictatorship. Russia may no longer be seen to rival America, but with control over a huge portion of the world's remaining non-renewable energy resources, it is a rapidly rising energy super-power. Yet, shrouded in myth and ice, it is little understood by the rest of world. Travelling thousands of miles, Jonathan journeys from Kaliningrad in the west to Provideniya in the east to discover modern Russia. Passing through some of the most extreme landscape on earth, several climates and across seven time zones, he visits places "spectacular, infamous, secret" that witnessed defining moments in Russia's extraordinary history. The people that inhabit this vast landmass are as fascinating and diverse as the landscape. Caught between Asia and Europe, they are a mix of ethnicities, a product of Russian expansionism and their turbulent past. In this book and the groundbreaking television series it accompanies, Jonathan looks at how Russia's past has shaped her current identity and investigates what modern Russia means to her people now.

The One-Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming

The One-Straw Revolution: An Introduction to Natural Farming

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fukuoka, Masanobu / Korn, Larry / Lappe, Frances Moore, PUBLISHER: New York Review of Books, Call it "Zen and the Art of Farming" or a "Little Green Book," Masanobu Fukuoka's manifesto about farming, eating, and the limits of human knowledge presents a radical challenge to the global systems we rely on for our food. At the same time, it is a spiritual memoir of a man whose innovative system of cultivating the earth reflects a deep faith in the wholeness and balance of the natural world. As Wendell Berry writes in his preface, the book "is valuable to us because it is at once practical and philosophical. It is an inspiring, necessary book about agriculture because it is not just about agriculture." Trained as a scientist, Fukuoka rejected both modern agribusiness and centuries of agricultural practice, deciding instead that the best forms of cultivation mirror nature's own laws. Over the next three decades he perfected his so-called "do-nothing" technique: commonsense, sustainable practices that all but eliminate the use of pesticides, fertilizer, tillage, and perhaps most significantly, wasteful effort. Whether you're a guerrilla gardener or a kitchen gardener, dedicated to slow food or simply looking to live a healthier life, you will find something here--you may even be moved to start a revolution of your own.

A Natural History of Nature Writing

A Natural History of Nature Writing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stewart, Frank, PUBLISHER: Island Press, "A Natural History of Nature Writing" is a penetrating overview of the origins and development of a uniquely American literature. Essayist and poet Frank Stewart describes in rich and compelling prose the lives and works of the most prominent American nature writers of the19th and 20th centuries, including: Henry D. Thoreau, the father of American nature writing. John Burroughs, a schoolteacher and failed businessman who found his calling as a writer and elevated the nature essay to a loved and respected literary form. John Muir, founder of Sierra Club, who celebrated the wilderness of the Far West as few before him had. Aldo Leopold, a Forest Service employee and scholar who extended our moral responsibility to include all animals and plants. Rachel Carson, a scientist who raised the consciousness of the nation by revealing the catastrophic effects of human intervention on the Earth's living systems. Edward Abbey, an outspoken activist who charted the boundaries of ecological responsibility and pushed these boundaries to political extremes. Stewart highlights the controversies ignited by the powerful and eloquent prose of these and other writers with their expansive - and often strongly political - points of view. Combining a deeply-felt sense of wonder at the beauty surrounding us with a rare ability to capture and explain the meaning of that beauty, nature writers have had a profound effect on American culture and politics. "A Natural History of Nature Writing" is an insightful examination of an important body of American literature.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stoops, Erik Daniel / Martin, Jeffrey / Stone, Debbie Lynne, PUBLISHER: Sterling Publishing (NY), Dive into the fascinating world of dolphins and porpoises, and learn about some of the most beautiful and intriguing animals on earth. Filled with more than 100 full-color photographs, almost all taken in the wild, this informative introduction is organized in an easy-to-read question-and-answer format. Find out where dolphins live, what their bodies are like, how their senses meet the demands of life in the sea, what and how they eat, the way they reproduce and care for their young, how they protect themselves, and their relationships with people. Meet the whole family of dolphin species from the well-known Bottlenose Dolphin (made popular by the Flipper television show and film) to the extremely rare Vaquita porpoise, which only grows to an average of 4 1/2 feet long. Discover amazing facts such as that the Killer Whale is actually a dolphin, that dolphins and porpoises first swam in the seas around 12 million years ago, that they swallow their food whole, and that they use their own language to talk to each other. Learn also about how people's actions are endangering the world's dolphin population and find out what can be done to protect these intelligent and graceful creatures. 80 pages (all in color), 8 1/2 x 8 1/2.
