Download or read book Sunday Miscellany written by Marie Heaney and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every Sunday morning, for almost thirty years, we've spread the butter on our toast to the sound of many a strange tale: tales about bees and onions, about meeting Pele, about working at the Ritz; tales about small towns in Wyoming and encouters in Iran, Christmas puddings and Horslips and lobsters... We've met the real Big Tom and gone walking on water, seen a sunset with smudges and a light in the dark... Listening to Sunday Miscellany on RTE Radio 1 is a familiar Sunday morning ritual for the thousands of people who tune in regularly to hear contributions which range from personal reminisces to the praise of heroes, from sporting highlights to historical events, from humorous interludes to poignant memories. Sunday Miscellany: A Selection brings together known and lesser-known writers in a celebration of the rich fabric of life and culture, the inventiveness of the human voice and the scope of the human mind, including the most memorable pieces from the last five years. There are familiar names here, from Peter Jankowsky to Frances Donoghue, Michael Harding to Cyril Kelly, Nuala Hayes to Sam McAughtry. And there are some not so familiar, the other voices that mingle and merge to

Download or read book Kriyol Syntax written by Alain Kihm and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the Portuguese-based Creole which is widely spoken as a first language in Guinea-Bissau. The study focuses on one variety, 'central Kriyol', and its main aim is to present a complete description of the grammar of the language. The theoretical framework for the syntactic analysis is purposely eclectic but relies primarily on Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar, and ample attention is paid to the cognitive or semantic dimension in the explanation of linguistic facts. After a short introduction on the history and phonology of the language and the organization of the study, there are chapters dealing with the simple sentence, Tense and Aspect, the noun phrase, the complex sentence, topicalization/focalization/questions, and Middles/Passives/Causatives. The final chapter discusses Kriyol texts, especially comic-books, from which a considerable number of examples used in the study are taken.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable, fascinating and beautiful visual guide to the world as you have never seen it. Vargic’s Miscellany of Curious Maps is a wonderfully weird collection of meticulous and striking cartographic creations, such as the infamous Map of Stereotypes. Based on a Westerner’s stereotypical view of the world, Slovakian artist and cartophile Martin Vargic assigns more than two thousand labels and prejudices to cities, states, countries, continents, oceans and seas on a large-scale, visually stunning world map, which alone took more than four months to create. The conceptual Map of the Internet and the Map of Sports are exquisite and surprising, and infographic maps showing the number of heavy-metal bands per capita, the probability of getting struck by lightning, average penis length, and the number of tractors per 1,000 inhabitants make it hard not to share with the person next to you. Including more than 70 maps, four foldout maps and two oversized removable posters, this book is a treasure trove of unexpected facts of our quirky, glorious and diverse big beautiful world.

Download or read book A Guinea Pig's History of Biology written by Jim Endersby and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved," Darwin famously concluded The Origin of Species, and for confirmation we look to...the guinea pig? How this curious creature and others as humble (and as fast-breeding) have helped unlock the mystery of inheritance is the unlikely story Jim Endersby tells in this book. Biology today promises everything from better foods or cures for common diseases to the alarming prospect of redesigning life itself. Looking at the organisms that have made all this possible gives us a new way of understanding how we got here--and perhaps of thinking about where we're going. Instead of a history of which great scientists had which great ideas, this story of passionflowers and hawkweeds, of zebra fish and viruses, offers a bird's (or rodent's) eye view of the work that makes science possible. Mixing the celebrities of genetics, like the fruit fly, with forgotten players such as the evening primrose, the book follows the unfolding history of biological inheritance from Aristotle's search for the "universal, absolute truth of fishiness" to the apparently absurd speculations of eighteenth-century natural philosophers to the spectacular findings of our day--which may prove to be the absurdities of tomorrow. The result is a quirky, enlightening, and thoroughly engaging perspective on the history of heredity and genetics, tracing the slow, uncertain path--complete with entertaining diversions and dead ends--that led us from the ancient world's understanding of inheritance to modern genetics.
