Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For readers who identify with nature conservation in New Zealand, many of the stories in this book will evoke a sympathetic appeal and a common understanding. 'Elisabeth's Story' explains a pioneering New Zealand woman's personal, life-long connection to Kiwi conservation after the manner of the French peasant of author Jean Giono's famous short story 'The Man Who Planted Trees.' 'For the Love of Birds' sets an enchanting theme where personal stories are interspersed by appeals for intelligent reasoning when interpreting nature events. In a surprise fictional contribution, guest writer Jean-Paul du Pries suggests in 'Chilling Predictions' that in our tragically fractured world, sadly, perhaps not all is as secure for New Zealanders and New Zealand wildlife as we might wish"

Book Synopsis Cultural Realism and Virtualism Design Model by : Ming-Feng Wang
Download or read book Cultural Realism and Virtualism Design Model written by Ming-Feng Wang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-02 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book proposes a new Cultural Realism and Virtualism design model for cultural and creative products based on Laozi’s philosophy and analysis of symbolism, metaphysics, three-layered culture, reverse-triangular cultural space and Zen aesthetics. It studies peoples that speak Austronesian languages and offers a detailed comparison of their homogeneous and heterogeneous cultures of color, clothing, housing, boats, birds, symbols, dance and ancestry, and provides insights into the cultural features of deconstruction and construction of color, style, form, shape and function, to compose cultural and creative products using complex, variable, fuzzy evaluation; and structural variation and color evaluation methods. It then uses case studies to show that the products created with the new model not only fulfilled their purpose, but also successfully entered the markets. This book helps qualify decision-making processes, improve accuracy of design scheme evaluation and enhance efficiency in product development, and as such appeals to those in the cultural and creative industry, researchers, designers and those who are interested in product design.

It's my Egg (and you can't have it) is both beautiful, but powerful.

This is an important, inspiring book for children that deftly communicates the importance of recovery programmes for our native wildlife. Heather Hunt and Kennedy Warne¿s stunning book The Cuckoo and the Warbler, from 2016, was selected by Storylines as a Notable Book, and It's my Egg is a book of equal quality.
