Book Synopsis In the Shadow of the Sabertooth by : Doug Peacock
Download or read book In the Shadow of the Sabertooth written by Doug Peacock and published by AK Press. This book was released on 2013-07-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Doug Peacock, as ever, walks point for all of us. Not since Bill McKibben’s The End of Nature has a book of such import been presented to readers. Peacock’s intelligence defies measure. His is a beautiful, feral heart, always robust, relentless with its love and desire for the human race to survive, and be sculpted by the coming hard times: to learn a magnificent humility, even so late in the game. Doug Peacock’s mind is a marvel—there could be no more generous act than the writing of this book. It is a crowning achievement in a long career sent in service of beauty and the dignity of life."—Rick Bass, author of Why I Came West and The Lives of Rocks Our climate is changing fast. The future is uncertain, probably fiery, and likely terrifying. Yet shifting weather patterns have threatened humans before, right here in North America, when people first colonized this continent. About 15,000 years ago, the weather began to warm, melting the huge glaciers of the Late Pleistocene. In this brand new landscape, humans managed to adapt to unfamiliar habitats and dangerous creatures in the midst of a wildly fluctuating climate. What was it like to live with huge pack-hunting lions, saber-toothed cats, dire wolves, and gigantic short-faced bears, to hunt now extinct horses, camels, and mammoth? Are there lessons for modern people lingering along this ancient trail? The shifting weather patterns of today—what we call "global warming"—will far exceed anything our ancestors previously faced. Doug Peacock's latest narrative explores the full circle of climate change, from the death of the megafauna to the depletion of the ozone, in a deeply personal story that takes readers from Peacock's participation in an archeological dig for early Clovis remains in Livingston, MT, near his home, to the death of the local whitebark pine trees in the same region, as a result of changes in the migration pattern of pine beetles with the warming seasons. Writer and adventurer Doug Peacock has spent the past fifty years wandering the earth's wildest places, studying grizzly bears and advocating for the preservation of wilderness. He is the author of Grizzly Years; Baja; and Walking It Off and co-author of The Essential Grizzly. Peacock was named a 2007 Guggenheim Fellow, and a 2011 Lannan Fellow.
Book Synopsis The Central Swirlio by : Quiche de Flurry
Download or read book The Central Swirlio written by Quiche de Flurry and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2021-11-26 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The antagonist of this series is barely mentioned in this book. His name is Chronotix Zeit Genrai Denbora and carries in distinction, one vertical eye. His murderers thought that it might be a tad rude that this great majister lacks a bigger part, and so convinced me to honor him with some cover time. As art is not my forte, this on the left is the best that I managed to do. Yes, they had killed him, the three of them. The magnate billionaire, the time traveler and the Chief Commisioner of the Interplanetary Alliance. Before they are able to come to terms with what has transpired, they are kidnapped by an alien race known only as the Ziggonians. They board the alien spacecraft and soar through the endless vastness of space in order to face trial for their crimes at the tribunal of the galaxies of souls. Tasked with their defense, the Eye of Chimera using the Mindmeld 3000, digs through and spins awake their everlong memories. Beginning in a world before this one, a yesterworld lightweight and airy, with only a fraction of Earths present day gravity. Where giants and dinosaurs still roam freely throughout the lands. The seven realms vie for dominance in a world where all is decided by way of combat. And anyone knows that any combateer worth their mettle has traveled at least one heavy air to completion at one of the rims of the world. Another spring equinox approaches and with it the chance to win the combat rights to chase the heavy air.

Download or read book Sabertooth written by Mauricio Antón and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-22 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A unique review of the many unusual and nearly worldwide occurrences of sabertooths and their relatives over more than 50 million years.” —Choice With their spectacularly enlarged canines, sabertooth cats are among the most popular of prehistoric animals, yet it is surprising how little information about them is available for the curious layperson. What’s more, there were other sabertooths that were not cats, animals with exotic names like nimravids, barbourofelids, and thylacosmilids. Some were no taller than a domestic cat, others were larger than a lion, and some were as weird as their names suggest. Sabertooths continue to pose questions even for specialists. What did they look like? How did they use their spectacular canine teeth? And why did they finally go extinct? In this visual and intellectual treat of a book, Mauricio Antón tells their story in words and pictures, all scrupulously based on the latest scientific research. The book is a glorious wedding of science and art that celebrates the remarkable diversity of the life of the not-so-distant past. “The best paleomammal artist working today [and] his knowledge of sabertooths and their evolution is second to none.” —Lars Werdelin, Swedish Museum of Natural History “Mauricio Antón is one of the best paleoartists. What sets him apart is the fact that he is a great paleontologist in his own right. Probably no one else has thought more about sabertooth than he has. As a result, his illustrations often demonstrate a particular behavior of the extinct mammal that he has personally researched or display a unique point of view.” —Xiaoming Wang, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles

Book excerpt: Tanis - his Emerald Dragon, Demios - and the Dragon Riders have defeated the Demons of the Dark Lord for now. But Mt. Drago is still in danger without the remaining two crystal keys. Now the inhabitants of the mountain have a new threat. One of the Aguiva dragons has escaped, and could jeopardize the harmony of their existence if discovered by the human world outside. Meanwhile, Tanis manages to impress with Bubo, an Aguiva Dragon that gives him more than he ever dreamed of, or at times can handle. In the heart of Australia's outback, a new home at Mt. Arcadia is being established by The Ariella, Queen of the Dragons. It will house her new Dragons, the Amphiteres.

Download or read book Smilodon written by Lars Werdelin and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The consummate guide to the ultimate sabertooth. Few animals spark the imagination as much as the sabertooth cat Smilodon. With their incredibly long canines, which hung like fangs past their jaws, these ferocious predators were first encountered by humans when our species entered the Americas. We can only imagine what ice age humans felt when they were confronted by a wild cat larger than a Siberian tiger. Because Smilodon skeletons are perennial favorites with museum visitors, researchers have devoted themselves to learning as much as possible about the lives of these massive cats. This volume, edited by celebrated academics, brings together a team of experts to provide a comprehensive and contemporary view of all that is known about Smilodon. The result is a detailed scientific work that will be invaluable to paleontologists, mammalogists, and serious amateur sabertooth devotees. The book • covers all major aspects of the animal's natural history, evolution, phylogenetic relationships, anatomy, biomechanics, and ecology • traces all three Smilodon species across both North and South America • brings together original, unpublished research with historical accounts of Smilodon's discovery in nineteenth-century Brazil The definitive reference on these iconic Pleistocene mammals, Smilodon will be cited by researchers for decades to come.

Download or read book Give Us the Fire! written by MJ Wise and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-08-08 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if you land on a planet the day its messiah is born—and you are the only one who can save the baby girl from being murdered? This is what happens in Give Us the Fire!—the memoir of starship medical officer Meg Salazar—is set amid the clash of two cultures, as five survivors of a starship confront an iron-age culture with a strong but warped spirituality. Guarding the baby they rescue, Meg and her four fellow survivors determine to blend in and help the primitive society prosper as best they can with their limited resources. They attract a small following of locals and set up a rudimentary industrial commune on the outskirts of a large city. But the commune’s peaceful aims soon conflict with the brutality of the dominant culture. And despite their efforts to protect her—as soon as the girl (Mioco) comes into womanhood, she runs afoul of the authorities for speaking out against their tyranny. Unstoppable, Mioco is determined to found a new community and wins Meg’s support though not her understanding—since Meg believes that science precludes spirituality. Tragedy follows—but it is not the final word. With the help of Meg and the other crew members, the planetary culture is forever changed.

Drago. Tanis and Queen Mother must find out how the Dark Lord plans to use these devices and stop him before their world crashes down around them.
