Darlingtonia Fens of Southwestern Oregon: Environmental Gradients, Community Boundaries, and Disturbance

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Darlingtonia fens of southwestern Oregon are distinct communities that commonly undergo dramatic changes in size and shape in response to a wide array of environmental factors. Since few systems demonstrate such a balance among high water tables, shallow soils, the presence of heavy metals, and limited nutrients, conservation efforts have been made to preserve them. Despite these efforts the communities have become smaller and less diverse over time. By investigating the spatial distributions of soil properties, the physical and ecological characteristics of ecotones, and the vegetation structure of fire-disturbed systems in the context of nutrient cycling and succession, this book provides plant scientists, researchers, and lay readers interested in uniquely-adapted plants a systematic approach to understanding these communities. The analysis sheds light on fire events which may drive ecosystem processes in a trajectory away from normal succession cycles and ultimately decrease… [detailed...]

2005 y.
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
Description: In 1905, facing capricious weather on a primitive outdoor rink, Dartmouth`s first hockey team took to the ice. In 1974, two years after coeducation came to the Hanover campus, Dartmouth women — fired with more competitive spirit than actual hockey experience commandeered the used equipment of their male counterparts and intramural skaters and became one of the college`s most successful athletic teams. `Dartmouth College Hockey: Northern Ice` portrays two programs that have followed parallel paths to distinction in intercollegiate hockey. Rupert Thompson Arena, one of the nation`s premier collegiate ice facilities, is home to the men and women of Dartmouth who have won numerous championships and earned All-American and Olympic acclaim, contributing to Dartmouth`s rich tradition of athletic achievement.

Darwin and the Bible: The Cultural Confrontation

2008 y.
Publisher: Allyn &, Bacon
Description: `Darwin and the Bible` helps readers to understand the nature, history and passions behind the debate over scientific and religious versions of creation and human origins. `Darwin and the Bible: The Cultural Confrontation` is about the history and nature of the disputes over human origins that arose with the publication of Charles Darwin`s book, Origin of Species in 1859. The readings in the text provide the, historical, theological, social and political backgrounds of the debate. Rather than trying to demonstrate the truth of Darwinian evolution, this book seeks to help the reader understand why the debate over Darwin and the Bible remains as contentious as ever. The book seeks to examine why Darwin`s theory of evolution appears threatening to some people, and, likewise, to help understand why some scientists often react with such emotion to challenges to their views. The contributors include biological scientists, social scientists, social historians, and proponents of the… [detailed...]

Darwin, Then and Now: The Most Amazing Story in the History of Science

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Darwin, Then and Now is a journey through the most amazing story in the history of science, encapsulating who Darwin was, what he said and what scientists have discovered since the publication of The Origin of Species in 1859. While recognized as one of the most influential individuals of the twentieth century, little is widely known about his personal life, interests, and motivations. This book explores Darwin`s driving passion using Darwin`s own words from The Origin of Species, Autobiography, Voyage of the Beagle and letters. In retracing the roots of evolution from the Greeks, Darwin, Then and Now journeys through the dynamics of the eighteenth century that lead to the publication of The Origin of Species and the succeeding role of key players in the emerging evolution revolution. Darwin, Then and Now examines Darwin`s theory with more than three-hundred quotations from The Origin of Species, spotlighting what Darwin said concerning the origin of species and natural selection… [detailed...]

Darwin: A Very Short Introduction

2009 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Darwin`s theory of evolution, which implied that our ancestors were apes, caused a furore in the scientific world and beyond when The Origin of Species was published in 1859. Arguments still rage about the implications of his evolutionary theory, and scepticism about the value of Darwin`s contribution to knowledge is widespread. In this analysis of Darwin`s major insights and arguments, Jonathan Howard reasserts the importance of Darwin`s work for the development of modern science and culture. Формат: 11 см х 17,5 см.

Darwin: Discovering the Tree of Life

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: A riveting tribute to Charles Darwin`s life and ideas in celebration of his 200th birthday. Charles Darwin`s ideas resonate deeply in Western culture today, and his theory still lies at the heart of modern scientific evolutionary research. As other nineteenth-century figures fade, Darwin`s theory of evolution still provokes controversy, spilling over into curriculum battles at state and local school boards in the United States and around the world. In exploring the everyday artifacts of Darwin`s life, his notebooks, and early manuscripts, Niles Eldredge?`a candid, no-punches-pulled interpreter of the core ideas of evolutionary biology` ( Science News )?provides a rare glimpse into the mind of this highly intuitive, creative scientist. The celebration of Charles Darwin`s 200th birthday in 2009 begins in November 2005 with the opening of a major exhibition at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, curated by Eldredge, that will travel… [detailed...]

Darwin`s Children

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Amazon.com Darwin`s Children , Greg Bear`s follow-up to Darwin`s Radio , is top-shelf science fiction, thrilling and intellectually charged. It`s no standalone, though. The plot and characters are certainly independent of the previous novel, but the background in Darwin`s Radio is essential to nonbiologists trying to understand what`s going on. The next stage of human evolution has arrived, announced by the birth of bizarre `virus children.` Now the children with the hypersenses and oddfaces are growing up, and the world has to figure out what to do with them. The answer is evil and all too human, as governments put the kids in camps to protect regular folks from imagined dangers. Mitch and Kaye, scientists whose daughter Stella is swept up in the fray, become unwillingly involved in the politics that erupt around the issue of the new humans. Harrowing chases, gun battles, epidemics, and tense meetings about civil rights ensue, all brilliantly narrated. But just when… [detailed...]

Darwin`s Garden: Down House and the Origin of Species

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: On the Origin of Species was built upon the young Charles Darwina??s observations of the natural world when he circumnavigated the globe as a `gentleman naturalist` on the HMS Beagle. But work on his masterpiece did not begin until five years after his return when he moved into Down House with his family in Kent, England, where he would live for the rest of his life. For almost twenty years, the garden at Down House was both an inspiration and a laboratory to Darwin. In the orchard, he conducted experiments on pollination. He built a dovecote where he could breed new strains of pigeons that helped him understand the intricacies of generation. On his daily walk along the sandbank, he observed how plants competed for survival. In solitude, he also struggled with the ideas of evolution that had haunted him since his voyage. Bringing Darwina??s garden to the present day, Boulter unfolds a shining portrait of the formation of one of Englanda??s greatest thinkers and his relationship with… [detailed...]

Darwin`s Gift: To Science and Religion

2007 y.
Publisher: Joseph Henry Press
Description: With the publication in 1859 of On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection , Charles Darwin established evolution by common descent as the dominant scientific explanation for nature`s diversity. This was to be his gift to science and society - at last, we had an explanation for how life came to be on Earth. Scientists agree that the evolutionary origin of animals and plants is a scientific conclusion beyond reasonable doubt. They place it beside such established concepts as the roundness of the earth, its revolution around the sun, and the molecular composition of matter. That evolution has occurred, in other words, is a fact. Yet as we approach the bicentennial celebration of Darwin`s birth, the world finds itself divided over the truth of evolutionary theory. Consistently endorsed as `good science` by experts and overwhelmingly accepted as fact by the scientific community, it is not always accepted by the public - and our… [detailed...]

2005 y.
Publisher: Ebury Press
Description: Roundworld is in trouble again, and this time it looks fatal. Having created it in the first place, the wizards of Unseen University feel vaguely responsible for its safety. They know the creatures who lived there escaped the impending Big Freeze by inventing the space elevator - they even intervened to rid the planet of a plague of elves, who attempted to divert humanity onto a different time track. But now it`s all gone wrong - Victorian England has stagnated and the pace of progress would embarrass a limping snail. Unless something drastic is done, there won`t be time for anyone to invent spaceflight and the human race will be turned into ice-pops. Why, though, did history come adrift? Was it Sir Arthur Nightingale`s dismal book about natural selection? Or was it the devastating response by an obscure country vicar called Charles Darwin, whose bestselling Theology of Species made it impossible to refute the divine design of living creatures? Either way, it`s no easy… [detailed...]
