Book Synopsis Primitive Technology by : David Wescott
Download or read book Primitive Technology written by David Wescott and published by Gibbs Smith. This book was released on 1999 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living in modern society, we have become increasingly disassociated from the earth, from the essence of ourselves, and the need is awakened in us to return to the wilderness--physically and emotionally. We long to feel a sense of connection with our ancient roots. This urge is what has prompted man's fascination with primitive skills: producing objects from natural materials using methods similar to prehistoric cultures. Primitive Technology: A Book of Earth Skills is a sharing of ideas--the philosophies, the history, and the personal stories by the authorities on primitive technology from teh pages of The Bulletin of Primitive Technology. Included are instructions for creating fire and tools of wood, stone, and bone, as well as fiber adhesives, projectiles, art, and music. Practicing these primitive methods will lead the seeker towards a tangible, raw connection with the ancient past, with nature's resources and, ultimately, with the creative forces that constructed the foundation of man's survival on the planet.

Book Synopsis American Flintknappers by : John C. Whittaker
Download or read book American Flintknappers written by John C. Whittaker and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making arrowheads, blades, and other stone tools was once a survival skill and is still a craft practiced by thousands of flintknappers around the world. In the United States, knappers gather at regional "knap-ins" to socialize, exchange ideas and material, buy and sell both equipment and knapped art, and make stone tools in the company of others. In between these gatherings, the knapping community stays connected through newsletters and the Internet. In this book, avid knapper and professional anthropologist John Whittaker offers an insider's view of the knapping community. He explores why stone tools attract modern people and what making them means to those who pursue this art. He describes how new members are incorporated into the knapping community, how novices learn the techniques of knapping and find their roles within the group, how the community is structured, and how ethics, rules, and beliefs about knapping are developed and transmitted. He also explains how the practice of knapping relates to professional archaeology, the trade in modern replicas of stone tools, and the forgery of artifacts. Whittaker's book thus documents a fascinating subculture of American life and introduces the wider public to an ancient and still rewarding craft.

Book Synopsis Warsong the RPG, Second Edition by : Ray Machuga
Download or read book Warsong the RPG, Second Edition written by Ray Machuga and published by Higher Grounds Publishing. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are secrets that they don't teach in school. Bookmarks in history books that point to pages that don't exist. The world that has been sold to us is not authentic. The sterile white rooms that test observable reality exist to protect us from the things that we might find out if we look for ourselves. Science would have you believe that everything that is has only existed for a finite period of time. Humans are only 200,000 years old. We'll celebrate our world's five billionth birthday in about half a billion years. The books will tell you that we were hunter-gatherers first. We emerged from evolution only recently. We're just a blink in the eye of the universe, hurling through space on a lonely rock. Alone in the universe with nothing on the other side of reality. Lies. We, and the world we live on, is far older than they tell us. There is another world that existed before. Before we evolved. Before the dinosaurs. Before the great ice ages. Before Jesus. Before Babel. Before Pangea. Before everything we know and everything that science teaches us there was a time of technology and magic. Of heroes and gods who walked among us. Of divine creatures barely removed from the birth of our world. This was a time before our eyes were blinded. Before our ears failed to hear the songs of the incarna. Before our souls withered away from the disconnection to the truth. This is the story we have forgotten. This is the Warsong. Delve into the fantastic, futuristic world of Lemuria in Warsong, the Sengoku Punk role-playing game. This 362 page core book includes everything you need to play!

Book Synopsis Child Labour in Britain, 1750-1870 by : Peter Kirby
Download or read book Child Labour in Britain, 1750-1870 written by Peter Kirby and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What kinds of jobs did children do in the past, and how widespread was their employment? Why did so many poor families put their children to work? How did the state respond to child labour? What problems arise in the interpretation of evidence of child employment? Child Labour in Britain, 1750-1870 - Offers a broad empirical analysis of how the work of children was integrated with the major economic and occupational changes of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Britain - Argues that working children occupied a unique position within the context of the family, the labour market and the state - Discusses the key issues involved in the study of children's employment In this clear and concise study, Peter Kirby convincingly argues that child labour provided an invaluable contribution to economic growth and the incomes of working-class households. Consequently, the picture that emerges is much more complex than that portrayed in many traditional approaches to the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Windownesian series features the adventures of the university student Jonathan Wills with his friends Meander, Athena, Zedekiah, as well as his roommates Alex the AI and Bobby the Alien. Each chapter centres around one topic, recording our characters experiencing it, and discussing it. “I still love my motherland and the sensible people living in it. But there’re dark histories I’m ashamed of and selfish people I avoid.” This is Chapter 10 centring national identity which foregrounds the conflicts Jonathan faces when interacting with people of his bloodline. “I’d rather be an incomplete human than a somewhat robot”, the attitude of Jonathan on prosthetics. Chapter 11 is where after some hesitations, he replaces his broken left arm with a robotic one. Complications arise when he finds out his prosthetic limb can... “Are [boars] more dangerous or are we more dangerous?” Chapter 12 centres around this controversial wild beast, and pits animal rights against human safety. This is a chapter where, Jonathan becomes something he didn’t expect to be. “We think difference, differently!”, perhaps the most iconic line of the series. But what does it mean? And how is it related to the series? Read the Writer’s Commentary to find out.
