Excerpt: ... well intellectually and all he learns now will stand him in good stead finally. More men who graduate with honours, I am told, do well in after life than those who merely skim through college. After this year Hugh will go to work and his year in the Graduate School will surely help him." "You don't know what you are talking about, my dear," Mrs. Warren put in. "This year for him is mere intellectual debauch." "Why, Bessie, how can you?" "I don't know how I can, but I certainly can. The browsing about among pleasant books while some one else pays the bills--I'm sure poor Evelyn Brandon can't do it--is morally degrading--yes, degrading is the word because it's what I mean. That boy has no idea of the difference between work and play. He imagines there will always be some one to pay his way, and there won't be. At least I hope not." "He may marry a rich girl." "That's the danger, since he's good looking. I believe it's the looks that take in even you, my dear, who ought to be old enough to see beneath the surface. But you are as susceptible as a girl of eighteen. When that boy does something I shall have more respect for his handsome face." "He has published a volume of poems." "Yes--and what did the reviews say of them? 'As slim as the volume that held them, ' I remember, and 'as pale as its covers.' That was the trouble. They were charming, but mere trifles, jeux d'esprit. They weren't even worked over. They came without effort--otherwise they would not have come at all. And with the publisher he had a friend at court." "The first edition was sold out. The public must have liked them." "The first edition was sold out--a very small one--but have you heard that another edition is forthcoming? I haven't. It isn't the first edition that the...

Book Synopsis Making the Modern World by : Vaclav Smil
Download or read book Making the Modern World written by Vaclav Smil and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How much further should the affluent world push its material consumption? Does relative dematerialization lead to absolute decline in demand for materials? These and many other questions are discussed and answered in Making the Modern World: Materials and Dematerialization. Over the course of time, the modern world has become dependent on unprecedented flows of materials. Now even the most efficient production processes and the highest practical rates of recycling may not be enough to result in dematerialization rates that would be high enough to negate the rising demand for materials generated by continuing population growth and rising standards of living. This book explores the costs of this dependence and the potential for substantial dematerialization of modern economies. Making the Modern World: Materials and Dematerialization considers the principal materials used throughout history, from wood and stone, through to metals, alloys, plastics and silicon, describing their extraction and production as well as their dominant applications. The evolving productivities of material extraction, processing, synthesis, finishing and distribution, and the energy costs and environmental impact of rising material consumption are examined in detail. The book concludes with an outlook for the future, discussing the prospects for dematerialization and potential constrains on materials. This interdisciplinary text provides useful perspectives for readers with backgrounds including resource economics, environmental studies, energy analysis, mineral geology, industrial organization, manufacturing and material science.

Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller An Amazon Best Book of 2020 The thrilling and addictive prequel to The Pillars of the Earth--set in England at the dawn of a new era: the Middle Ages "Just as transporting as [The Pillars of the Earth] . . . A most welcome addition to the Kingsbridge series." --The Washington Post It is 997 CE, the end of the Dark Ages. England is facing attacks from the Welsh in the west and the Vikings in the east. Those in power bend justice according to their will, regardless of ordinary people and often in conflict with the king. Without a clear rule of law, chaos reigns. In these turbulent times, three characters find their lives intertwined. A young boatbuilder's life is turned upside down when his home is raided by Vikings, forcing him and his family to move and start their lives anew in a small hamlet where he does not fit in. . . . A Norman noblewoman marries for love, following her husband across the sea to a new land, but the customs of her husband's homeland are shockingly different, and it soon becomes clear to her that a single misstep could be catastrophic. . . . A monk dreams of transforming his humble abbey into a center of learning that will be admired throughout Europe. And each in turn comes into dangerous conflict with a clever and ruthless bishop who will do anything to increase his wealth and power. Thirty years ago, Ken Follett published his most popular novel, The Pillars of the Earth. Now, Follett's masterful new prequel The Evening and the Morning takes us on an epic journey into a historical past rich with ambition and rivalry, death and birth, love and hate, that will end where The Pillars of the Earth begins.
