BRITISH ANIMALS EXTINCT WITHIN HISTORIC TIMES - WITH SOME ACCOUNT OF BRITISH WILD WHITE CATTLE by JAMES EDMUND HARTING. PREFACE: FEW who have studied the literature of British Zoology can have failed to remark the gap which exists between Owens British Fossil Mammals and Birds, and Bells British Quadrupeds the former dealing chiefly with prehistoric remains, the latter with species which are still existing. Between these two admirable works a connecting link, as it were, seems wanting in the shape of a history of such animals as have become extinct in Britain within historic times, and to supply this is the aim ofthe present writer. Of the materials collected, during many years of research, some portion has been already utilized in a Lecture delivered by the author before the Hertfordshire Natural History Society, in October, 1879, and in several articles in the Popular Science Eeview and the natural history columns of The Field. The exigencies oftime and space, however, necessitated a much briefer treatment of the subject in the journals referred to than is here attempted, and to these essays, now presented to the reader in a con- solidated form, considerable additions have been made. That the subject admits of still further amplifica- tion the author is well aware but ars long a vita brevis est and the materials at present collected have already assumed such dimensions, that it has been deemed preferable to offer them to the reader in their present form, rather than postpone publica- tion indefinitely, in the hope ofsome day realizing an ideal state of perfection. Should the present volume pave the way for future research on the part of others, the Author will be amongst the first towelcome the result of their labours. He has already to acknowledge his indebtedness to Dr. J. A. Smith and Messrs. Edward Alston, J. A. Harvie Brown, and J. P. Hoare, whose taste in the same line of research has prompted them to favour him with several interesting commu- nications, which have been embodied in the following pages while to Dr. Smith he is especially obliged for the use of four woodcuts which were prepared to illustrate papers of his own in the Proceed- ings of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. In regard to that portion of the present work which treats of the ancient breed of wild white cattle, it may be thought, by some, a little presump- tuous on the part of the writer to deal witha subject on which an entire volume has been so recently and so ably written by the late Mr. Storer. But it should be stated that almost all the materials for this portion of the book were not only collected long before Mr. Storers work was published, but were on the eve of being incorporated in an important essay by Mr. Edward Alston, which was nearly ready for the press when Mr. Storers volume appeared. ft would be ungenerous, however, on the part of the writer were he to withhold an acknowledgment of his indebtedness to Mr...

As the Earth's oil supply runs out, and the effects of climate change threaten nations and their populations, the search for carbon-neutral sources of energy becomes more important and increasingly urgent. This book focuses on solutions to the energy problem, and not just the problem itself. It describes the major energy-generation technologies currently under development, and provides an authoritative summary of the current status of each one. It stresses the need for a balanced portfolio of alternative energy technologies. Certain solutions will be more appropriate than others in particular locations, due to the differences in availability of natural resources such as solar, wind, wave, tidal and geothermal. In addition, nuclear options (both fission and fusion), as well as technologies such as fuel cells, photovoltaics, artificial photosynthesis and hydrogen (as an energy carrier), all have a potential role to play. A state-of-the-art critique of energy efficiency in building design is also included. Each chapter is written by an acknowledged international expert and provides a non-technical overview of the competing and complementary approaches to energy generation.
Broad in scope and comprehensive in treatment, Energy..beyond Oil provides an authoritative synthesis of the scientific and technological issues which are essential to the survival of the human race in the near future. The book will be of interest and use to graduate students and researchers in all areas of energy studies, and will also be highly useful for policy-makers and professionals in the environmental sector as well as a more general readership who wish to learn more about this extremely topical subject.

Walden is one of the best-known non-fiction books ever written by an American. It details Thoreau's sojourn in a cabin near Walden Pond, amidst woodland owned by his friend and mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson. Walden was written with expressed seasonal divisions. Thoreau hoped to isolate himself from society in order to gain a more objective understanding of it. Simplicity and self-reliance were Thoreau's other goals, and the whole project was inspired by Transcendentalist philosophy. This book is full of fascinating musings and reflections. As pertinent and relevant today as it was when it was first written.

National Park Ranger, a.k.a., "Bleeding Green & Grey" tells the stories that cover well beyond just the numerous and sometimes daily heroic deeds that other present park ranger books more than adequately validate. However, these new true-life tales not only embrace such topics as the customary high adventure cases, the sometimes humorous park visitors, and the dealing with the unfortunate death & mayhem; but now include various accounts of handling previously considered taboo matters such as limited budgets, hiring difficulties, increasing outside agency assists, and unfortunately, politics and bureaucracy. Also, something rather different in dealing with the typical stoical federal government, author Greg Moss actually enjoys to not only show the amusement side of dealing with the unusual park visitor actions, but also pokes fun of himself or other park staff. All those emergency life-or-death call-out operations and boring administrative meetings don't go off quite as smoothly as most other books on park rangers currently portray, or even totally ignore. This author uses a lot of dry humor, satire, and sarcasm in his book which makes you laugh out loud, scratch your head, and say, "Really? Is that true?"
