Book excerpt: Would you like to know how Prayer works? Would you like to be more successful in your relationships? Are you interested in Spirituality and the path of the Medicine person or Shamanism? Would you like to know about the special nature of Plants or Mineral Spirits? Would you like to be able to talk to your guides and the Creator in a Medicine Wheel? Have you wondered what the animals are trying to tell you or mean in your dreams? If you answered yes to any of those questions then this is the most comprehensive resource about such that exists on Mother Earth and a "Must Have" book that belongs on your shelf! This is A New Edited and Revised Edition of material that has been extensively used as support material for many classes and Workshops conducted by White Eagle for over two decades. Included in this New version is information about Tobacco and the Pipe Ceremony, the Smudging and Clearing of people, places, and objects and so much more like information about the Way of Ritual and Ceremony. There have been many books written about Medicine people and Shamanism in general but very few if any Real and Practical Guides so as to learn and experience the Way of it. Now one does and This is it! Over the years commonly referred to as "The Big Book" by White Eagle and those that have come to learn the Medicine Way from him, this is the first material written when Great Pop told White Eagle to: "Write This Book." The Medicine Way is actually seven books in one being that of: The Medicine of Prayer - The How To and Why of Prayer Earthwalk - The "How To" of being incarnate on Mother Earth Walking the Round Way - The How To of Relationships The Medicine Wheel - Not only the How To, but also the Why and What of it Mineral Spirit Medicine - Describes the Medicine and potential support from many of the different stones and minerals that White Eagle uses in his practice of the Medicine Way. Plant Spirit Medicine - Describes the Medicine and essential nature of most of the common trees and plants. Also described is the Medicine of the Spirit of common food plants as well the support one can receive from many of the herbs listed. Animal Spirit Medicine - Includes what different animals mean in vision or dreams as well as in one's daily encounters. After two decades this material has finally undergone formal editing and in the process its coverage has become expanded even further than before. Now it has finally become available in printed form in both color and black and white versions. This Book is for any and all that desire to know, and know more about Spirits, Spirituality, Medicine, and The Medicine Way.

Download or read book Spineless written by Juli Berwald and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-11-06 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A book full of wonders" —Helen Macdonald, author of H Is for Hawk "Witty, insightful. . . .The story of jellyfish. . . is a significant part of the environmental story. Berwald's engaging account of these delicate, often ignored creatures shows how much they matter to our oceans' future." —New York Times Book Review Jellyfish have been swimming in our oceans for well over half a billion years, longer than any other animal that lives on the planet. They make a venom so toxic it can kill a human in three minutes. Their sting—microscopic spears that pierce with five million times the acceleration of gravity—is the fastest known motion in the animal kingdom. Made of roughly 95 percent water, some jellies are barely perceptible virtuosos of disguise, while others glow with a luminescence that has revolutionized biotechnology. Yet until recently, jellyfish were largely ignored by science, and they remain among the most poorly understood of ocean dwellers. More than a decade ago, Juli Berwald left a career in ocean science to raise a family in landlocked Austin, Texas, but jellyfish drew her back to the sea. Recent, massive blooms of billions of jellyfish have clogged power plants, decimated fisheries, and caused millions of dollars of damage. Driven by questions about how overfishing, coastal development, and climate change were contributing to a jellyfish population explosion, Juli embarked on a scientific odyssey. She traveled the globe to meet the biologists who devote their careers to jellies, hitched rides on Japanese fishing boats to see giant jellyfish in the wild, raised jellyfish in her dining room, and throughout it all marveled at the complexity of these alluring and ominous biological wonders. Gracefully blending personal memoir with crystal-clear distillations of science, Spineless is the story of how Juli learned to navigate and ultimately embrace her ambition, her curiosity, and her passion for the natural world. She discovers that jellyfish science is more than just a quest for answers. It’s a call to realize our collective responsibility for the planet we share.
Book Synopsis Illuminating Disease by : Marc Zimmer
Download or read book Illuminating Disease written by Marc Zimmer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-05 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Green fluorescent proteins have been floating in the ocean for more than 160 million years, but it took a curious scientist, fascinated by pinpricks of green light, to begin unlocking their potential. Now these jellyfish proteins have become one of the most important tools available to researchers in modern medicine and biology. By using them to illuminate other proteins that were previously invisible even under a microscope, scientists are now able to observe facets of disease that would have otherwise gone undetected. Green fluorescent proteins are used in over three million experiments a year and have proved invaluable for tasks such as tracking HIV, breeding bird flu-resistant chickens, and confirming the existence of cancerous stem cells. In Illuminating Disease, Marc Zimmer introduces us to these revolutionary proteins, acquainting readers both with the researchers responsible for the proteins' discovery as well as their wide utility. The book details the history of genetically modified fluorescent parasites and viruses, which provide scientists with lifesaving information about the spread of diseases. Green fluorescent proteins allow scientists and doctors to understand diseases better by quite literally illuminating various microscopic interactions occurring in living cells that otherwise would have gone unseen. The book is richly illustrated, showing the visually striking uses of green fluorescent proteins, and many of these scans have won awards in biological imaging competitions. An ideal introduction for students and advanced researchers alike, Illuminating Disease is an accessible yet deeply probing investigation into one of the most important developments in medical research of the last several decades.
Book Synopsis Biological Oceanographic Processes by : Timothy R. Parsons
Download or read book Biological Oceanographic Processes written by Timothy R. Parsons and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This revised edition of a popular textbook is written for students, physical oceanographers, engineers, hydrologists, fisheries experts and a number of other professionals who require quantitative expressions of biological oceanographic phenomena. It is designed to lead the reader, step by step, through a progression from the distribution of marine organisms, to discussions on trophic relations, to a final chapter on some practical applications of biological oceanography to fisheries and pollution problems. The book covers subject matter in the pelagic and benthic environments, and is intended to bridge the gap between entirely descriptive oceanography texts and works on the mathematical modelling of marine ecosystems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the surface of the ocean, it's hard to see any visible signs of life below. But this remarkable ecosystem is teeming with life—life that is increasingly under environmental stress. And it is often the predators that sound the earliest warning signs. By tracking a wide variety of ocean predators, the Tagging of Pacific Predators (TOPP) project provides essential cutting-edge information about the state of the ocean's health and the challenges facing all its inhabitants. Acclaimed science writer Pamela S. Turner takes readers along with four predators—a leatherback sea turtle, a bluefin tuna, a great white shark, and a Sooty Shearwater—on their remarkable journeys. This full-access look will change the way readers view our blue planet.
