In science, sometimes it is best to keep things simple. Initially discrediting the discovery of neurons in jellyfish, mid-nineteenth-century scientists grouped jellyfish, comb-jellies, hydra, and sea anemones together under one term - "coelenterates" - and deemed these animals too similar to plants to warrant a nervous system. In Dawn of the Neuron, Michel Anctil shows how Darwin's theory of evolution completely eradicated this idea and cleared the way for the modern study of the neuron. Once zoologists accepted the notion that varying levels of animal complexity could evolve, they began to use simple-structured creatures such as coelenterates and sponges to understand the building blocks of more complicated nervous systems. Dawn of the Neuron provides fascinating insights into the labours and lives of scientists who studied coelenterate nervous systems over several generations, and who approached the puzzling origin of the first nerve cells through the process outlined in evolutionary theory. Anctil also reveals how these scientists, who were willing to embrace improved and paradigm-changing scientific methods, still revealed their cultural backgrounds, their societal biases, and their attachments to schools of thought and academic traditions while presenting their ground-breaking work. Their attitudes toward the neuron doctrine - where neurons are individual, self-contained cells - proved decisive in the exploration of how neurons first emerged. Featuring photographs and historical sketches to illustrate this quest for knowledge, Dawn of the Neuron is a remarkably in-depth exploration of the link between Darwin's theory of evolution and pioneering studies and understandings of the first evolved nervous systems

Dawn of the Neuron: The Early Struggles to Trace the Origin of Nervous Systems, by Michel Anctil

Review "Dawn of the Neuron shows how the evolution metaphor controversy played out in the emergence of the neuron doctrine and how inadequate research methods misled many authors on fundamental questions. The book is therefore a caution with regard to the overzealous speculation about universal principles of neural organization. Anctil has been active in research on coelenterates and therefore is an excellent guide in adjudicating these controversies." Gordon M. Shepherd, Yale University"In a series of impressively detailed episodes, Anctil carries readers from the seventeenth-century microscopists who first identified cells as the basic units of life, to the twenty-first century pioneers now applying molecular genetics to the still-unfinished task of accounting for the beginnings of neural cells. Exceptional scholarship illuminates the labors of intrepid minds pitted against one of biology’s most inscrutable riddles." Booklist (starred review)“The study of coelenterates—a group that includes jellyfish, comb jellies, anemones, and hydra—doesn’t typically make for riveting pop-sci reading. But in the hands of Michel Anctil, the unassuming creatures take center stage as the birthplace of modern science’s appreciation of neurobiology. Anctil gives personality to animals once thought not that different from plants and brings back to life the labors of researchers who looked to those simple organisms to make groundbreaking discoveries, the reverberations of which are still felt today.” – The Scientist

By Bud Spencer It is an alright book but it is a very specialized topic, often rather tedious to read and I think it unfortunately fails to put the historical aspect of the topic into clearer context with our modern understanding of the biology of neurons and coelenterate neuronal organization. I was hoping to learn more about this but found it difficult to extract that from this book.

The Reef, by Edith Wharton

Review A complex, subtle and moving story of the ways in which people torment one another and the awful power of retrospective jealousy PENELOPE LIVELY

From the Inside Flap Edith Wharton was at the height of her enormous literary powers when she published The Reef in 1912, and everything about this novel suggests a mastery so complete that it can achieve nothing higher. The plot, which tells of the drastic effects of a casual sexual betrayal on the lives of four Americans in France, is expertly turned, suspenseful, continually compelling. An assured, unhurried dramatic instinct governs the great moments of confrontation and revelation. The central characters, two of whom are innocents and two of whom are burdened by experience and tinged with desperation, are perfectly delineated: their relationships to one another are constructed with a classical feeling for harmony, proportion, and balance. And the entire novel is imbued with a clear-eyed wisdom about both the possibilities and the limitations of human love. Wharton would go on to write splendid books after completing The Reef, but nowhere does she display a finer command of her art than she does here.

From the Back Cover The plot of this book, which tells of the drastic effects of a casual sexual betrayal on the lives of four Americans in France, is expertly turned, suspenseful, continually compelling.

14 of 17 people found the following review helpful. Miss Manners By John Petralia So, this is Edith Wharton! Miss Manners, you say----like watching a bunch of stiff English folks dance the minuet in an over-stuffed drawing room. Well, yeah, but! There's this thing she does with that drill. You, know, it's the way she uses it to penetrate the deepest recesses of her characters'minds, three, in particular. There's Darrow, the handsome man-of-the-world eligible bachelor. Upon first meeting, you'll wonder if there's any there there. Wharton's drill reveals all. There's also, the widow Anna, Darrow's intended. When Anna discovers that Darrow once had a dalliance with Sophy, her daughter's governess, she becomes, as the Italians say, outside of her self. Here, Wharton's drill work is akin to watching a colonoscopy on the brain. While she never really leaves her house, never raises her voice, never moves more than a few muscles of her exquisite face, what we see going on in her brain has more twists, turns, and switchbacks than the car chase scene in the French Connection. Next to Anna and Darrow, Sophy presents with quiet dignity. Yes, she has had this affair with Darrow. Yes, she is of a lower class. But, no, she is not sorry for what she did. And, she is not about to sell her soul for the bourgeoisie existence so valued by Anna and Darrow. She's the most honest of the Wharton characters, and the one most difficult to analyze. One wrong move with the Sophy character, and you could easily get pulp fiction. Instead, Miss Manners drills out a masterpiece.

Recommended.In his introduction to The Reef, Louis Auchincloss notes that modern readers may not appreciate a moral climate in which a woman opposes her stepson's engagement to a girl who has had an affair with the man the woman is about to marry. The Reef, however, is as concerned with morality as with class.On his way to France to see his beloved, the widowed Anna Leath, George Darrow receives a telegram telling him not to come "till thirtieth" due to "unexpected obstacle." As time passes and he doesn't receive an explanation for the delay, he experiences growing feelings of disappointment and humiliation. At one point, he imagines the umbrellas and elbows of his fellow travelers saying, "She doesn't want you, doesn't want you, doesn't want you."As he waits undetermined as to whether to go back to London or to press forward, he encounters Sophy Viner, a recently unemployed servant of a woman whose dinners he once attended. She is on her way to Paris to look up old friends and to pursue a theatrical career. Darrow, who feels sorry for himself and the loss he thinks he is about to suffer, finds himself manipulating Sophy into staying with him to attend the theatre and finally into a short liaison. He is unaware that she has fallen in love with him and his kindness in her hour of uncertainty.A year later, Anna Leath eagerly anticipates Darrow's arrival, for they are to be married and begin an overseas stint as part of his diplomatic career. She is also excited because her stepson, Owen Leath, wants to do something that they know will upset his aristocratic, old-fashioned grandmother; he wants to marry Anna's daughter's governess, who is none other than Sophy Viner.Darrow and Sophy's secret is safe with one another, yet Darrow is faced by the uncomfortable fact that the ignorant Anna wants him to support Owen's choice of a woman he knows to be unsuitable but whom he pities. He tries to convince Sophy that Owen is not right for her. "You'd rather I didn't marry any friend of yours," she says "not as a question, but as a mere dispassionate statement of fact." Darrow's lack of feeling and poor conduct make Sophy an undesirable wife for Owen. She is a painful reminder that both of them have broken social conventions.Auchincloss calls Sophy a "fallen woman" in the context of the times, but this is too simplistic. The real issue with Sophy, both before and after Anna finds out about her relationship with Darrow, is her class and lack of social background. After all, in The House of Mirth, extramarital liaisons are commonplace, understood, and accepted if they are discreet and do not upset the social balance. Within the correct parameters, such affairs become a comfortable topic of gossip and speculation.Once Anna has finally divined that there has been something between Darrow and Sophy beyond the casual acquaintance previously admitted, he acknowledges it by saying simply, "She has given me up." This does not refer to Sophy's feelings, but to her expectations. Sophy has learned that, in the world she inhabits, the Darrows seek temporary solace from the Sophys, but permanence and stability from the Annas.The issue that Anna keeps returning to is not that Darrow has deeper feelings for Sophy, but that Sophy has been there before, whether it is to the theatre with Darrow or in Darrow's arms--. True, the liaison happened while he was on his way to Anna and she is bothered by that, but it does not dwell so much in her thoughts as that the kiss he places on her neck has also landed on Sophy's-and that Sophy has been even more intimate with him than she has. Anna asks Darrow, "Do such things happen to men often?" (phrased passively, as though Darrow had been the pursued rather than the pursuer). "I don't know what happens to other men. Such a thing never happened to me . . ." The "thing" here is not the physical aspect of the relationship. Even the "fine" Anna knows that he has indulged because one of his relationships, with a mutual acquaintance named Kitty, drove her away from him in their youth. The fact is that this relationship is outside their social sphere and reflects a lack of discretion that may make him an unsuitable husband and stepparent.Sophy, with her finely tuned perceptions, her delicacy, her generosity, and her genuine feelings (Darrow assures Anna that she is no adventuress, which Anna wants her to be), does not deserve her fate. She goes off to India to return to the service of Mrs. Murrett. In one of the weaknesses of The Reef, Anna's encounter with Sophy's fat, frowsy, common sister and her equally common lover, Jimmy Brance, puts the noble Sophy in her proper place for both Anna and the reader.The Reef is in shallower waters than The House of Mirth or The Age of Innocence, and its structure is weakened by a forced reliance on dialogue. A large part of the final third consists of various characters talking to Anna in her room, coming and going what may as well be a revolving door. Sophy's fate further weakens the drama. Yet, who but Wharton could write, "Her frugal silence mocked his prodigality of hopes and fears"? Such elegant prose and insights alone distinguish The Reef.(As an aside, it would be interesting if, in the same fashion Jean Rhys gave Bertha Mason from Jane Eyre "a life," a writer were to do the same for Sophy, whose viewpoint is never shown.)Diane L. Schirf, 7 July 2003.

Flawed Characters= realism; Great Characterization & Setting By A Customer Yes, Wharton was just a tad mean and crude in writing the male counterpart of this book, but that's what makes this book so interesting. These characters had flaws! Actually flaws! I am so sick of reading books with perfect little characters with just one evil villian. This book shows you that no one is perfect, and everyone has a little evil in them.A charming, poetic, lyrical, and beautiful book to read. Wonderful descriptions, vivid images, lovely constructed sentences.The cover of THE REEF is also beautiful. The text and lay out enhances the story, the elegance of the past, the wrong and the right. The cover was also rather of a matte type of thing, not glossy, which reminds the reader of ceramic and the older days when they turn the pages and old the book open. Another lovely read by my favorite female author of the 20th century, Edith Wharton.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Good, but not quite great By Von I recently read and reviews 'The Innocent Adventuress' by the same author and looked forward to reading this book. I enjoyed it, but was disappointed.In the other book you had a clash of two cultures: that of the Italian and the American. And, in that book, there are characters, main, sympathetic, characters, that hold to both views, even as they interact with and try to understand the 'other'.In this book, unfortunately, as with so many books about the middle east and the Arabic culture, the views are all one sided. The main character; despite being raised in a Muslim harem, still manages not only to have views counter to that culture, but seems to not even understand it; leaving only secondary and/or antagonistic characters to represent the Arabic culture. One understands that the author has her own prejudices and antipathy toward that culture, but the book is still weakened by the lack of any true clash.That said this book, like the other, is still a fun read. A 'romance' without being erotica, an adventure without interminable car chases, it combines its elements well and helps you keep the pages turning.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Delightful escapism By F. Schultz This is a delightful bit of escapism, as light as gossamer. There is the magic of love at first sight, an exotic location, and, of course, the inevitable villain. That the villain happens to be a Turk does not, in my opinion, make the author prejudiced. In fact, she seems fairly knowledgeable about Cairo and the Islamic culture of the time. The book was written in 1920 when archeological excavations of ancient Egyptian tombs were ongoing, and one of the main characters is, not surprisingly an archeologist. I found the book engrossing and entertaining and would highly recommend it. (I listened to the audio version of the book: [...]

"[...] The malevolence of his voice and manner this morning, therefore, when he shook his finger at the town beyond the windows, and exclaimed, with a bitter laugh, "Look at it!" was no surprise to his companions. "Jest look at it! I tell you the devil is mighty smart. Ha, ha! Mighty smart!" Through custom it was the duty of Squire Buckalew (Justice of the Peace in '59) to be the first to take up Mr. Arp. The others looked to him for it. Therefore, he asked, sharply: "What's the devil got to do with snow?" "Everything to do with it, sir," Mr. Arp retorted. "It's plain as day to anybody with eyes and sense." "Then I wish you'd p'int it out," said Buckalew, "if you've got either." "By the Almighty, Squire"—Mr. Arp turned in his chair with sudden heat—"if I'd lived as long as you—" "You have," interrupted the other, stung. "Twelve years ago!" "If I'd lived as long as you," Mr. Arp repeated, unwincingly, in a louder voice, "and had follered Satan's trail as long as you have, and yet couldn't[...]".

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Back To Indiana Again By Dave_42 "The Conquest of Canaan", originally published in Harper's Magazine between June and December of 1905 is yet another story set in a small town in Indiana, and it bears many similarities to his first novel, "The Gentleman from Indiana", and "The Two Vanrevels". In all cases, the hero is an exceptional person who takes on the less scrupulous people. In his first novel, everyone in the town of Platville respected the hero John Harkness, and his enemies were the White Caps (a thinly veiled parody of the Klan). In "The Two Vanrevels", the hero is John Vanrevel, who is once again respected by almost the entire town, but his significant enemy is the rich and powerful Mr. Carewe. In this novel, the hero, Joe Louden is the hero of the misfortunate, but spurned by the "respectable" members of the town of Canaan, led by Judge Pike. To this hero, Tarkington adds his heroine, Ariel Tabor, who similarly is not regarded as a good person by the important members of the town.In both cases, the characters have to leave town and then return to gain their respectability. Joe does this by putting himself through law school, though when he returns he is still looked down upon, and as he usually represents the lower classes and destitute, his reputation does not immediately improve. Ariel goes to Europe with her father after inheriting money, and when she returns she has gained respect by dressing and speaking correctly. In addition, she wins over Joe, who always overlooked Ariel in their childhood, instead he was in love with his neighbor Mamie Pike, the daughter of the judge. As with the others in the town, Joe is entranced by the returning Ariel, and he realizes his mistake when he was younger. Ariel has always cared for Joe, and with her help, he slowly builds up respect with the entire town, other than those fiercely loyal to Judge Pike.This is a fairly standard Tarkington, and given its similarities to the previous two works of his, it is difficult to recommend it very highly. It is better than his first novel, but not nearly as good as "The Two Vanrevels", as he fails to build the drama the way he did in that prior work by using the backdrop of the war. At the same time, it is a fairly straight-forward and easy read, and there are no major problems with it, so I will give it three stars.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. From Beaver Beach By Lee Armstrong I thoroughly enjoyed this novel from 1905. Booth Tarkington does a great job of setting up Joe Loudon as an outcast in the small town of Canaan, Indiana. The town culture is dominated by Judge Pike. Booth has a giant crush on the judge's daughter Mamie while his childhood friend Ariel Tabor watches. During a night at a party at the Pike's where Joe is not invited, he sneaks under the front porch and looks up through the cracks to get a glimpse of Mamie. His discovery and beating launch his escape from Canaan. He returns after seven years (think I recall that # correctly) as a lawyer who sets up shop in Canaan. Joe's clients are the down-and-out poor people who hang out at Beaver Beach, a notorious hotbed of sin and corruption. His friend Ariel's father was a poor painter. However, he came into a substantial sum of money upon the death of a relative and Ariel leaves for Paris, France with her father soon after Joe's departure. After his return, Ariel shows up in Cannan, transformed from the awkward girl whose unstylish clothes didn't quite fit into a beautiful young woman replete with the latest Paris fashions. Joe's step-brother Eugene marries Mamie, which sends Joe on a drinking binge. Despairing and hung over, he encounters the new Ariel, who he at first does not recognize. She has always loved Joe and continues to do so. There is a murder at Beaver Beach with Happy Fear and his wife Claudine in a love triangle. Joe sets to defend Happy, despite the local paper owned by Judge Pike setting the town against him. Events spiral toward a great conclusion where the good guys win and the bad guys get their just deserts. The book held my interest and kept me wanting to read another chapter to see what would happen next. Dust off a copy if you can find one. The book is a great treat. Enjoy!

4 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Typical early Tarkington By A Customer A tale about a social pariah, Joe Louden, who as a young man is maligned and much talked about in the small midwestern town of Canaan. Leader of the talkers is Judge Pike, the richest and most powerful man in the city. Joe, even though he is poor, turns to reading books and studying law in his spare time. He eventually leaves town and gets himself through law school. He begins to practice law and only handles the scoundrels of the town because Pike and the rest of the town scolds anyone who should use his services. With the help of a woman, he wins the respect of Canaan and is able to usurp Pike's power.I thought this book was fairly dry. There were some interesting parts, but overall, I found it hard to get into. I suspect, Tarkington's early works were not as polished and his older ones.

Ebook PDF Online The Ecology of Law: Toward a Legal System in Tune with Nature and Community, by Fritjof Capra, Ugo Mattei

The Ecology of Law Fritjof Capra and Ugo Mattei argue that at the root of many of the environmental, economic, and social crises we face today is a legal system based on an obsolete worldview. Capra, a bestselling author, physicist, and systems theorist, and Mattei, a distinguished legal scholar, explain how, by incorporating concepts from modern science, the law can become an integral part of bringing about a better world, rather than facilitating its destruction. This is the first book to trace the fascinating parallel history of law and science from antiquity to modern times, showing how the two disciplines have always influenced each other—until recently. In the past few decades, science has shifted from seeing the natural world as a kind of cosmic machine best understood by analyzing each cog and sprocket to a systems perspective that views the world as a vast network of fluid communities and studies their dynamic interactions. The concept of ecology exemplifies this approach. But law is stuck in the old mechanistic paradigm: the world is simply a collection of discrete parts, and ownership of these parts is an individual right, protected by the state. Capra and Mattei show that this has led to overconsumption, pollution, and a general disregard on the part of the powerful for the common good. Capra and Mattei outline the basic concepts and structures of a legal order consistent with the ecological principles that sustain life on this planet. This is a profound and visionary reconceptualization of the very foundations of the Western legal system, a kind of Copernican revolution in the law, with profound implications for the future of our planet.

The Ecology of Law: Toward a Legal System in Tune with Nature and Community, by Fritjof Capra, Ugo Mattei

Review “The modern-day legal system is seldom tied to current unsustainable ecological practices. Yet in this thoughtful treatise, co-authors Capra and Mattei show how tenets of western jurisprudence, such as private property rights and eminent domain, have eradicated older precepts. Natural resources were considered 'commons' that belonged to no one, to be shared by everyone. This older way of thinking gradually disappeared as community-based justice was replaced by codified laws serving elites, as in ancient Rome. American law, inherited largely from the English common law tradition, developed under the influence of Enlightenment-era concepts of favoring mercantilism and industrialization – practices that approach the natural world as something to be subdued and exploited. The authors propose a philosophy and jurisprudence that is deeply radical – upending centuries of Western tradition and culture – but possibly crucial to solving looming environmental problems. If there is a flaw in their book, it is perhaps their faith (expressed almost without doubt) that there exists a reasonable possibility of the world jettisoning global capitalism in order to 'decentralize power to small scale communities in tune with the laws of ecology.' Simply reading about Capra and Mattei's vision is a paradigm-changing experience. Realizing it would require a seemingly impossible, but perhaps crucial, global transformation.”- Publishers Weekly “Confronting the systemic roots of our ecological crisis is far from easy, but there is a heartening side: we remember that the rules of our economic system are culturally constructed -- and that means they can change. This book is not only a dazzling map of the legal order underpinning capitalism, but also a visionary call to transform that system, reminding us that communities can and must drive the process of renewal and regeneration.”—Naomi Klein, author of This Changes Everything and The Shock Doctrine“Rules restrain but also enable. Law elevates this capacity onto a higher plane but succumbs to its dark side when shaped by vested interests extending cleverly their tyranny upon humanity and nature. Things do not have to be this way. As this book vividly explains law can be turned into an instrument for defending the planet and its inhabitants from the encroachments of financialized commodification.”—Yanis Varoufakis, former Minister of Finance of Greece"The Ecology of Law is a fast-paced, historical tour de force, placing the law in the various contexts that have shaped its utilization for good or ill. The contexts discussed by these bold thinkers - science and technology, the natural world, and the commons as a legal institution - provide fresh and functional perspectives on the evolution of law for the just society. For all those readers who think, wonder, and bridle at the law in their lives, this book is your tonic." —Ralph Nader“Fritjof Capra and Ugo Mattei fill a gap in our understanding of how the mechanistic paradigm that shaped a science for the exploitation and domination of nature was exported into law to ‘naturalize' resource grab and the enclosures and privatization of the commons. From the tragedy imposed on the old and young in Greece, to the farmers' suicides in India , the enclosures of the commons is now threatening the very survival of humanity. The Ecology of Law lays the conceptual foundations for the recovery of the commons , and through it, the rejuvenation of our economies, our democracies, our lives .”—Vandana Shiva, scientist, philosopher, activist, and author of Making Peace with the Earth

A milestone in the collective journey towards a new ecolegal order By Ferrando Tomaso The history of law and of the Western modern legal thought is deeply characterized by the construction of nature as a series of commodities that can be seized, occupied, traded and destroyed. As a consequence, human laws authorize, legitimize and protect people (and wealthy people above all) when they enclose natural resources, grab land, privatize water and trade food throughout the world as an item whose value depends on exchanging and not on using.In this excellently written and enjoyable book, Fritjof Capra and Ugo Mattei combine their theoretical and practical backgrounds to expose the ecological unsuitability of "mechanistic" paradigm and propose a new and appealing "ecolegal" order that challenges the deepest and most rooted assumptions of most jurists, businessmen and political leaders.At a time when global warming is "changing everything" and when there is an increasing realization of the need for a new holistic paradigm is needed and urgent, the first seven chapters of the book (pars destruens) take scientists and jurists - but also non expert readers - through the history of ideas that contributed to the creation of the current (entrapped) state of the world and its naturalization. The last three chapters, which are highly destabilizing of the legal status quo and thought provocative, discuss the 'commons' and some of ongoing revolutionary struggles that try to make the new paradigm a reality as the funding pillars of "an ecologically transformed law [that] can transform capital into natural commons by producing a sustained investment into a sharing economy, into ecologically compatible architecture, or into environmental care."This book is for those who think that another world is possible and those who are convinced that the current legal and scientific paradigms are inevitable and 'natural'. They should read this book and will find in it new and convincing arguments to support a shift away from the mechanistic worldview of modernity and to participate to the emergence of a new legal system that is inclusive, bottom up, participated, holistic and in line with the limits and potential of our planet.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. it also offers a powerful and evocative illustration of the way that popular democratic movements can abate some of the worst ex By jerry blane A very important work for anyone following developments in the evolution of social and political thought, broadly construed. The book is a page-turner, and is written for both specialist and popular audiences. The key takeaway is intuitive: our epistemic understanding of the physical world has moved away from static models of properties and dynamics (Aristotelian, Cartesian, Baconian)--which were expressed as immutable "laws of nature"-- towards more fluid conceptions of the cosmos (Einstein, Bohrs, Heiselberg); our legal/regulatory models are in dire need of a similar paradigm shift. Western science has moved towards an epistemology/ontology that acknowledges that physical properties are contingent on related phenomena. As Heiselberg postulated, "The more precisely the position of an electron is determined, the less precisely its momentum is known in this instant, and vice versa." The marriage of physics with chemistry in the early part of the 20th century has now been supplemented with radically contingent theories of subatomic and macrocosmic dynamics. As a result, our understanding of foundational 'facts' about our environment, including the very premise of time as an absolute and linear measure, has been called into question.Western jurists and policymakers have a difficult time conceptualizing these more fluid network processes, and consequently, the dominant jurisprudential paradigm still rests on what Capra and Mattei call a model of "mechanical jurisprudence" -- where physical phenomena can be studied, deductively reduced to their least common measurable denominators, and then allocated through the process of propertization to ostensibly "most efficient" uses. As science has evolved from static towards network/systems conceptions of matter and its progeny, so too should legal thinking.The Ecology of Law can be thought of as a provocative and highly original intellectual history, spanning 2,000 years of Western thought. Beyond that, what is most remarkable about the book is that aside from offering a total critique of dominant modes of thinking, it also offers a powerful and evocative illustration of the way that popular democratic movements can abate some of the worst excesses of the "static" model, including in the domain of environmental conservation, property rights and property allocation, and so on. Building on Ugo Mattei's work on the legal institution of the Commons in Italy and throughout Europe, the book offers a fresh and inviting look into how popular movements can re-appropriate "law" towards emancipatory and non-anthropocentric ends. In a genre of scholarly/populist literature that is so often saturated with pessimistic assessments regarding humanity's inherent inability to see the bigger picture in truly intergenerational and collective terms, The Ecology of Law drips with optimism founded in actual political struggle. An imminently accessible "must read" for audiences ranging from senior policymakers and theorists to high school students looking for ways to make a difference.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Real food for thought By William Walton In this groundbreaking book Capra and Mattei set the record straight by challenging the most deep-rooted assumptions of the Modern era and by propounding a feasible and desirable alternative to the status quo: a new ecological Weltanschauung and a new “ecolegal” order. The authors help us understand that many concepts and categories we are familiar with are not indisputable truths but just one version of the story (the dominant narrative). The dominant mechanist worldview, the extractive mentality, the idea of an atomistic society built around the notion of individualism whereby every human relation is reducible to a property relation, where everything is to be done in consideration for something else, whereby competition replaces cooperation, are all factors that contributed to the current social, economic and ecological crisis. Now, more than ever, a paradigm shift from competition to cooperation, from extraction to reproduction, from privatization to access, from exclusion to inclusion is needed and this book pursues this goal.Capra and Mattei gifts us with an invaluable resource: a critical guide which helps readers to be active thinkers and not merely passive will-takers!

The Archaeology of Jerusalem: From the Origins to the Ottomans, by Katharina Galor, Hanswulf Bloedhorn

Review “There is no history of Jerusalem without its archaeology. Presenting a thorough, up-to-date survey of the finds, from the Bronze Age to the Ottoman period, this book is a vital introduction to the many cultural layers of Jerusalem.”—Israel Finkelstein, Tel Aviv University  (Israel Finkelstein)“Many excavations took place in Jerusalem in the last 30 years, and Galor and Bloedhorn are extremely familiar with the history and archaeology of the city. This book offers a new, comprehensive, up to date, scientifically reliable and well-illustrated summary for Jerusalem’s past.”—Wolfgang Zwickel, Johannes Gutenberg-University of Mainz  (Wolfgang Zwickel)“Long expected and urgently needed, this well-organized and readable compendium reflects the state of current research on archaeology in Jerusalem and will shape the growing generation of researchers.”—Dieter Vieweger, Director of the German Institute of Archaeology in Jerusalem and Amman  (Dieter Vieweger)“The authors have worked very hard to write objectively in a field notorious for its ideologically driven literature. Their use of ‘neutral’ names and terminologies, dependence mainly on archaeological findings and freeing themselves, to a certain extent, from ‘Holy Texts’ marks a serious scholarly beginning of writing the history of Jerusalem objectively.”—Nazmi Jubeh, author of Jerusalem’s Architectural Treasures (Nazmi Jubeh)“The Archaeology of Jerusalem is the first book to present the complete archaeological narrative of Jerusalem devoid of any religious or political biases. The authors' neutrality is demonstrated in their adoption of purely archaeological terminology and a wide variety of sources. The depth of analysis and detail corresponds to the authors’ on-the-ground expertise of Jerusalem.”— Muhsin Yusuf, Birzeit University  (Muhsin Yusuf)“Galor and Bloedhorn expertly analyze scores of archaeological finds, textual sources, and the latest research to illuminate the history of Jerusalem and its material culture. Written in lucid prose, this book is an essential resource for specialists and students of archaeology, history, and religion.”—Gregg E. Gardner, The University of British Columbia (Gregg E. Gardner)“The lay reader will come to realize how much of history can be revealed by the foundations of buildings and the placement of defensive walls.” —Library Journal (Library Journal)“In transposing the story of Jerusalem into a different key…Galor and Bloedhorn shed light on how tactile things can act as batteries and conductors of memory.” —Benjamin Balint, The Weekly Standard (Benjamin Balint The Weekly Standard)“Galor and Bloedhorn have encapsulated the work of many generations of their fellow scholars by showing us, quite literally, the facts on the ground.”—The Jewish Journal (The Jewish Journal)“Valuable . . . well-illustrated and thoroughly documented.”—Choice (W. Kotter Choice)

About the Author Katharina Galor is the Hirschfeld Visiting Assistant Professor in the Program in Judaic Studies at Brown University and an Adjunct Professor at the Rhode Island School of Design. Hanswulf Bloedhorn is an expert on Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine architecture and decoration of public and sacred buildings, and a leading authority on the archaeology of Jerusalem.

If you have watched a Grand Slam tennis tournament in the past decade, you are probably aware that the game is dominated by just a few international powerhouses. At the conclusion of each tournament, it is likely that you will see Serena Williams atop the women’s podium and a member of the Big Four—Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Andy Murray—hoisting the trophy for the men. And while there is not a lot of variety in the outcome of these matches, the game of tennis itself has changed drastically over the decades, as developments in technology and conditioning regimens, among other factors, have altered the style of play. Underpinning many of these developments is science, and this book explains the scientific wonders that take the ball from racquet to racquet and back again.             Each chapter explores a different facet of the game—learning, technique, game analysis, the mental edge, physical development, nutrition for performance and recovery, staying healthy, and equipment—and is organized around a series of questions. How do we learn the ins and outs of hitting the ball in and not out? What are the main technological developments and software programs that can be used to assist in performance and notational analysis in tennis? What role does sports psychology play in developing a tennis player? What is the role of fluid replacement for the recreational, junior, and professional player? What rule changes have been made with respect to the racquet, ball, and ball-court interaction to maintain the integrity of the game in the face of technological change? Each question is examined with the aid of explanatory diagrams and illustrations, and the book can be used to search for particular topics, or read straight through for a comprehensive overview of how player and equipment work together.            Whether you prefer the grass courts of Wimbledon, the clay courts of the French Open, or the hard courts of the US and Australian Opens, Tennis Science is a must-have for anyone interested in the science behind a winning game.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Surprisingly good---well crafted By Jim Curry My first impression of this book was very negative. While it is a beautiful book and solidly produced on good paper, I thought that it was very low on content. It gives short coverage to topics I think to be crucial (serve mechanics) and equal coverage to topics (Hawkeye Technology) that are unlikely ever to affect an ordinary player. So, I felt cheated. That first impression was quite wrong. Yes, topics that are introduced are treated extremely concisely, but the content is very good, we could say extraordinary. It tells you that dynamic stretching is important and that should be done before you work out. Then it shows you very quickly what to do. More is not required. It gives top information, and it gives it quickly. There is information to benefit players of all levels as well as coaches at all levels as well as business persons related to the tennis industry. It is a very good book, and it is written by people who know what they're doing. I feel silly for having had a bad first impression. If you would like top information and you'd like to just cut to the chase and be told what to do, this is a very good book. It's up to date. It's just great.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. More useful for the serious player By J. Davis Tennis Science has some valuable and interesting material; however I would offer a large caveat:At a price of almost $20 the book is really worth it only if you're a coach, a serious player, or a parent of a serious player. If you're a semi-serious/casual player like me I suggest checking out a a copy at a library or a quick glance at a bookstore.

La madre. Es una de las novelas más conocidas y logradas de la literatura de todos los tiempos. En ella Gorki no se limitó a hacer una descripción localista de la miseria en que se veía sumido el proletariado urbano de su país, sino que compuso un canto al ansia humana de emancipación, por encima de las barreras levantadas por el miedo y la represión. Desarrollada en un estilo claro, directo, sin concesiones al detalle innecesario, en el que los diálogos dramáticos priman sobre la descripción de ambientes.

About the Author Máximo Gorki (1868-1936) fue un escritor y político ruso identificado con el movimiento revolucionario soviético. La obra de Máximo Gorki creció rápidamente. Ya para 1898, había reunido su producción narrativa en dos volúmenes. Su persona era cada vez más popular, sus cuentos agradaban al público y su fama trascendió las fronteras para llevar su nombre por toda Europa. En San Petersburgo estableció contacto con destacados marxistas que lo motivaron a volver la vista hacia los problemas sociales y lo convencieron sobre la conveniencia del movimiento revolucionario. Fue nombrado miembro honorario de la Academia Imperial de Ciencias, pero en 1902 le fue anulado el puesto a causa de diferencias políticas, que lo llevaron a la cárcel.

Una gran muestra de valor By Lina POr un lado, es una muy buena obra para quienes les gustan los temas revolucionarios, de valor, honor y sacrificio.El personaje principal "la madre", logra transmitir un sentimiento contagiante de valor y fuerza sobrenatural, ella es el producto de estos movimientos que logran darle un motor y un motivo en la vida.Por otro lado, tiene largos momentos de conversaciones y debates que pueden resultar densos para quienes no se sientan atraídos por temas de revolución. Si embargo, es un libro muy bien escrito que muestra la realidad de la vida de las duras vidas de los obreros sometidos y explotados por el poder y su grito en contra a ese abuso.

"[...]kind of man who would understand. I've had you in my mind all this week when things got troublesome. Say, will you do me a good turn?' 'I'll listen to you,' I said. 'That's all I'll promise.' I was getting worried by the antics of this nervous little chap. There was a tray of drinks on a table beside him, from which he filled himself a stiff whisky-and-soda. He drank it off in three gulps, and cracked the glass as he set it down. 'Pardon,' he said, 'I'm a bit rattled tonight. You see, I happen at this moment to be dead.' I sat down in an armchair and lit my pipe. 'What does it feel like?' I asked. I was pretty certain that I had to deal with a madman. A smile flickered over his drawn face. 'I'm not mad—yet. Say, Sir, I've been watching you, and I reckon you're a cool customer. I reckon, too, you're an honest man, and not afraid of playing a bold hand. I'm going to confide in you. I need help worse than any man ever needed it, and I want to know if I can count you in.[...]".

The Thirty-Nine Steps, by John Buchan

Review It is the dimension of the mysterious that makes Buchan’s writing so unfailingly compelling. (John Keegan, from the introduction) --introduction

About the Author John Buchan (1875–1940) was a Scottish novelist and Unionist politician who served as Governor General of Canada, the 15th since Canadian Confederation. After a brief career in law, Buchan simultaneously began writing and his political and diplomatic career, serving as a private secretary to the colonial administrator of various colonies in Southern Africa, and eventually wrote propaganda for the British war effort in First World War. Once back in civilian life, Buchan was elected Member of Parliament for the Combined Scottish Universities, but spent most of his time on his writing career. He wrote The Thirty-Nine Steps and other adventure fiction. He was in 1935 appointed as governor general by George V, king of Canada, on the recommendation of Prime Minister of Canada Richard Bennett, to replace the Earl of Bessborough as viceroy, and occupied that post until his death in 1940. Buchan proved to be enthusiastic about literacy, as well as the evolution of Canadian culture, and he received a state funeral in Canada before his ashes were returned to the UK and interred at Elsfield, Oxfordshire.

From AudioFile This enjoyable 1947 radio adaptation of John Buchan's 1916 thriller comes from the vaults of the CBC. More faithful to Buchan's novel than was Alfred Hitchcock's 1935 film adaptation, Charles Rittenhouse's script also makes fine use of the sound medium. Musical chords punctuate dramatic moments. A montage of train sounds and conversational snatches succinctly maps hero Richard Hannay's escape from London and the clutches of a spy ring. After he disguises himself in the garb of a cooperative milkman, Hannay's innocent whistling lets us trace his steps as he nonchalantly slips past the police. Two badly muffled passages turn up, as expected with historic radio transcriptions, but the play is fast-paced fun. G.H. © AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

16 of 17 people found the following review helpful. Classic, historically important, but has it's weaknesses By Douglas J. Bassett This is one of the classics of the mystery/thriller genre, and it has a great deal of historical importance. That's easy to see when you place it up against other famous books of this era -- stuff by Le Queux or Oppenheim, for instance. The best books by those guys are quite fun to read, but they're clearly coming from an earlier era of popular fiction -- one focused on a kind of Victorian/Edwardian style of adventure fiction (an interest in the aristocracy, an interest in melodrama, a very restrained sense of "action", etc.). THIRTY NINE STEPS, though, seems proto-modern in contrast. The protagonist, Richard Hannay, is a middle class guy thrust out of his humdrum life by a chance encounter with adventure. How many modern thrillers start out with the same general premise?Buchan also establishes many of the modern tropes of the thriller here -- while I don't think he wrote the first "man on the run" story, his version of it is probably what has influenced most modern thriller writers. Hannay goes to ground in Scotland and we see another thing that a lot of thriller writers adopted, the "window into other cultures" (thriller as picaresque novel). Buchan is also pretty good with the action sequences, always pretty rare in books and vanishingly rare for this time period. The highlight of the book, by far, is the escape from the cellar sequence, which still reads like the wind.I could go on. (Buchan plays with the notion of "disguise" in an interesting way, for instance, and seems on some level to peg that to socioeconomic status -- Hannay confesses he's most uncomfortable with the emergent middle class, I suspect because he doesn't understand how they "fit" into his world.) The important thing is that if you're truly interested in mystery/suspense fiction, Buchan is a writer you sooner or later should read, and for it's influence and historical importance alone THIRTY NINE STEPS is a great book.All that said, this is not my favorite Buchan. This is still early in his career and he's still working some things out -- some things are presented in almost rough draft form. The climax has it's moments and in some ways is quite clever (in brings to a conclusion his ideas about "disguise", as the villains end up doing the same thing Hannay has done through the rest of the book)but it's as contrived as hell how Hannay gets there, the seams are showing here. Also, I'm still not sure I understand the villains' plot. Yes, I know, they "want war". But why? What do they hope to gain from it? And how, again, does this particular plan ensure that happening?In short, great writer, good book, generally recommendable all around and a must-read if you're a serious fan of the genre -- but he wrote better, believe me.

13 of 15 people found the following review helpful. Too few thrills for a thriller By Karl Janssen The Thirty-Nine Steps, an espionage thriller by John Buchan, was originally published in 1915. A story of a lone man taking on a conspiracy against his country, it can be seen as a precursor to the spy novels of authors such as Ian Fleming and John Le Carré. Though it was probably ground breaking for its time, and helped to establish the template of its genre, to a 21st-century audience who has read, seen, and heard thousands of spy stories, it is hardly outstanding.Richard Hannay, a former mining engineer with some experience as an intelligence officer, has spent most of his life in South Africa. Having returned to his native Britain, Hannay finds himself bored to death in London, hoping for a diversion to rouse him from his ennui. His wish is granted in the form of Franklin P. Scudder, an American neighbor who shows up on his doorstep, asking to hide out in Hannay's apartment. Scudder has discovered a plot by anarchists to assassinate the Premier of Greece, thereby plunging Europe into chaos and war. When Scudder is murdered, Hannay realizes that the killers will be after him next. He flees London, hoping to hide out in rural Scotland, but his pursuers are hot on his trail.Though originally published as a magazine serial, The Thirty-Nine Steps is a step above run-of-the-mill pulp fiction. The subject matter could lend itself easily to sensationalization, but Buchan delivers his tale with a matter-of-factness that strengthens its believability. When describing the sinister plot that threatens the stability of the free world, however, Buchan reverts to ambiguous slang and vague clichés that leave the reader wondering exactly what the plan is that Hannay is trying to thwart. The aim of the villains seems to be to start a world war, but given that World War I was a foregone conclusion at the time the book was published, how shocking is that?Hannay's first person narrative voice is charmingly level-headed and seasoned with a fair degree of cynicism and a bit of wry wit. Though a likeable and identifiable hero, he possesses the annoying quality of being just too darn lucky. Although he seems to have a good head on his shoulders, more often than not he gets out of a jam not through the use of his wits but through the assistance of a series of benevolent strangers that miraculously appear at convenient moments, always willing to help. Though it's refreshing that Hannay is an everyman, not a superhero like so many spy story protagonists, today's reader expects a little more self-sufficiency from their espionage heroes, and wants to see their man solve his own problems.The villains are usually lurking offstage somewhere and never quite materialize distinctively enough to be satisfactorily menacing. The final chapter delivers a suspenseful scene, but squanders its thrills by finishing with an abrupt and weak ending. The Thirty-Nine Steps may have served as an important stage in the development of the spy novel, but it's a stage long since passed. In a market glutted with espionage thrillers, why settle for one that's just OK?

"[...]mills, and was just settling itself to sleep--the sleep of the just--again, when, as I have said, it was shaken to its foundations. It was Miss Belinda Bassett who received the first shock. Miss Belinda Bassett was a decorous little maiden lady, who lived in a decorous little house on High Street (which was considered a very genteel street in Slowbridge). She had lived in the same house all her life, her father had lived in it, and so also had her grandfather. She had gone out, to take tea, from its doors two or three times a week, ever since she had been twenty; and she had had her little tea-parties in its front parlor as often as any other genteel Slowbridge entertainer. She had risen at seven, breakfasted at eight, dined at two, taken tea at five, and gone to bed at ten, with such regularity for fifty years, that to rise at eight, breakfast at nine, dine at three, and take tea at six, and go to bed at eleven, would, she was firmly convinced, be but "to fly in the face of Providence," as she put it, and sign her own death-warrant. Consequently, it is easy to imagine [...]".

Unexpected Humor from Frances Hodgson Burnett By Anne Wingate http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JQV4NW/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_imgThe tiny village of Slowbridge in England is "shaken to its foundations," as the first sentence tells us, by the arrival of Miss Belinda Bassett's not only unexpected, but completely unknown to exist, niece from Bloody Gulch, Nevada. Octavia Bassett, with her trunks of stylish clothes, piles of diamond jewelry, purses of gold coins for the vicar to present to the unfortunate, and utter lack of shyness or what the residents of Slowbridge consider proper maidenly behavior, promptly becomes a close friend of Lucia Gaston, the completely repressed granddaughter of the village matriarch, Lady Theobald.By the time her father and her fiance, who marries her in Slowbridge, take her away along with Miss Belinda Bassett, marriages planned since children were in the cribs have been replaced with previously unimaginable sets of bride and groom, Lady Theobald's plans are slammed to the ground with amazingly good results, dressmaker Miss Chickie can no longer get away with selling identical dresses to all the young women in town, and even Lady Theobald has been forced to accept the existence of Mr. Burmistone, the horrible man who built a factory in Slowbridge . . . and neglected to let anyone know that he was a close friend and relation of Lord Lansdowne.This isn't belly-laugh humor, but there is something delightful on every page. I recommend it strongly.

12 of 12 people found the following review helpful. Delightful! By Meks Librarian "A Fair Barbarian" was published in 1881, when the author was 32 years old. It is, I think, aimed at young ladies, and if you have ever read any of the highly entertaining Georgette Heyer novels, you will enjoy the "Fair Barbarian", which may well have served as an inspiration to that later author.The setting of this book is Slowbridge, an English village which prides itself on the modesty of its young ladies - all dressed in white muslin gowns made by Miss Chickie, the village taylor, who adapts the more fashionable styles from London and Paris to the requirements of Slowbridge's strict rules about what is deemed decent attire for a lady. The whole village is, it seems, socially under one particular lady's authority; whoever she does not invite to her tea parties, is not invited by anyone else, but if she starts the round by inviting someone to her house, everyone else follows suit.One of the lesser mortals living in the village, an elderly lady on her own, receives a surprise visit: her niece (whom she had not even known existed, let alone met before) arrives on her doorstep with five huge trunks, fresh from the US, and announces that she is here to stay - at least until her father, the elderly lady's brother (whom she has not set eyes on for many years) has successfully dealt with a business emergency back home and can join her in England.This newcomer, Octavia Bassett, causes quite the metaphorical whirlwind in the quiet, modest village; her clothes (not the demure gowns of white muslin the other young ladies wear, but dresses that "fit like a glove", plus - imagine that! - diamonds dangling from her ears and on her fingers, in full daylight and without being married!), her hair style, her general demeanour and frank, open manner of speaking to anyone, regardless of their position in the social hierarchy of the village - all that is cause for plenty of gossip from the elderly generation and much admiration from the younger.What changes in the villagers' hearts and minds Miss Octavia manages to bring about - without even consciously doing anything to achieve this - and a glimpse of what her and her new friends' future lives may look like, is told in a most entertaining manner; some bits are rather predictable, while others aren't, but even the predictable bit does not diminuish the pleasure of reading this charming story.While writing this review, I looked up Frances Hodgson Burnett on Wikipedia and learnt a few things about her life, of which I had known nothing before. Because she had spent a lot of time in both her native England and the US, I believe her portrayal of the difference in customs and habits between the one country and the other in those days to be credible and not just added to the story as figments of her imagination to make the character of Octavia more interesting and in contrast to the English girls.I shall definitely look for more of her work in Amazon's Kindle store.

Entertaining Free Read By MainelyClassics As has been described by other reviewers, A Fair Barbarian, written by Frances Hodgson Burnett, takes place in the little English village of Slowbridge (emphasis on Slow...). There are aspects of Elizabeth Gaskell's classic North and South. However, Octavia has come to the sleepy, smug English village from Bloody Gulch, Nevada. (Most of the locals dare not even utter the name!) With her (to the locals) over-profusion of jewels and modern ways, she proceeds with great sang froid to gradually disarm the entire (mostly female) population.This read has a lot to do with English manners and decorum, and pride and prejudice... in fact, there is a wedding proposal that bore some resemblance to Darcy and Elizabeth's first round.I reduced this book's rating by one star because the ending was abrupt and could have used some fleshing out. I really liked it otherwise.I am working my way through this author's works. I would rate how it read on my Kindle, but I bought the whole collection. I read a lot of free content, but when I come to like a particular author, I am not averse to spending a couple of dollars on their complete works. That way I have all of the books; I don't miss anything, and it keeps my Kindle less cluttered.
