Book Synopsis The Englishman by : J. E. R. Staddon
Download or read book The Englishman written by J. E. R. Staddon and published by Legend Press Ltd. This book was released on 2016 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although I have been basically an academic for most of my life, the way I got there has taken some surprising turns. The first four chapters of this memoir describe what I can remember and discover about my early life: an unsuspected ancestry, fun in WW2 London, comical schooldays, and a spell in colonial Africa interrupting a wobbly college career at the end of which I left England for America. In the US I followed again a slightly erratic graduate-school trajectory that ended up in a Harvard basement. The main part of the book is about science, my efforts to understand the world opened up for me by biology, Darwin, the evolving cybernetic revolution and the experimental methods of influential and opinionated behaviorist B. F. Skinner. I have tried to make this part as simple and nontechnical as possible, although a couple of graphs have intruded.
Book Synopsis When Winners are Losers by : Catherine Buckle
Download or read book When Winners are Losers written by Catherine Buckle and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2008/9 Zimbabwe was on the verge of complete collapse: no food to buy in the shops, no money in the banks and a currency denominated in trillions, quadrillions and septillions. Hunger was widespread and cholera rampant. The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission took five weeks to announce that the 2008 elections were too close to call and ordered a second ballot. An orgy of violence against opposition supporters left hundreds killed, thousands fleeing the country and a quarter of a million people displaced from their homes. When winners are losers recounts the events of the five years that followed when the opposition formed a government of national unity with Zanu PF in order to stop the violence and suffering. A currency of worthless Zimbabwe dollars was replaced by US dollars and SA Rand and an economy on the brink began to recover. A brief window of hope had opened, but only until the next election.

If your family was on the verge of starvation, and becoming a hangman was the only job available, would you apply? If you were hired, what would you do if the prisoners looked like your loved ones? If you knew that another good man was taking the job out of desperation, would you do anything to prevent him from getting it? What if that man's recruitment would somehow guarantee your own survival, would you encourage his candidacy? All these questions were asked of people who never thought they would find themselves in such a position, until they became mired in the chaos surrounding the hangman's replacement.

Marie discusses the edible and medicinal properties of various plants (there's even a quick tip or two!), as well as coastal considerations such as salt tolerance; environmental issues such as pesticide use, beneficial insects, and exotic invasives; and gardening for birds and butterflies. She also offers her musings on the seasons in Florida and how she spends her time in the garden during each phase of the year.
