Songs of the Accursed Mountains

What it would be like to encounter a Homo Neanderthalensis, dressed in modern garb, waiting for a bus. Would he or she be noticeably different from modern humans? This fascinating book takes the reader quite a long way toward an answer to that seemingly unanswerable question.

How To Think Like a Neandertal

A very dark fantasy story with a distinct western flair . . . absolutely fascinating and incredibly original

The Winter Road

Indeed, careful consideration of the materials should allow for the preparation of apposite music to complement the mood of the day and, where appropriate, the tone of the Gospel . . . Anne is to be applauded for the vast amount of repertoire knowledge, thought, work and scholarship that must have gone into this huge undertaking which makes a significant contribution to the repertoire for teaching, sight-reading and performance purposes.

America's Aid to Germany in 1870-71. An Abstract From the Official Correspondence of E. B. Washburne

The first edition of this book immediately became a very useful reference. This new edition is all that a revision should be. The authors have added a lot. Most impressively, Bradbury and Vehrencamp gathered a galaxy of color illustrations that give the book a greater impact for readers. A good and important book just got better.

Principles of Animal Communication

With a sophisticated sense of pacing and patience, the stories build on one another by focusing on how the actions of those in power affect vulnerable women and children on both sides of the divide . . . Though the characters are meticulously developed within each story, the collection as a whole examines how little power a person might have over his or her own destiny when confronted with war and international disputes. Stunning and relentless

Praise for the Deathstalker Series&ldquo;The&#160;Deathstalker Saga&#160;is space opera to the extreme as only Simon R. Green can do it. Intense, unique, and addictive, it&rsquo;s everything George Lucas wishes his work could be, if he had an unlimited budget and the peculiar creativity I&rsquo;ve come to associate with British writers. I love Green&rsquo;s work, and I can&rsquo;t recommend this book enough.&rdquo;&mdash;SF Site&ldquo;Green ably juggles elements of sword and sorcery, high fantasy, humorous quest and SF, with homages to authors such as Moorcock, Adams, Cordwainer Smith, and Zelazny...a fun, twisty romp with surprises around every corner.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly &#160; &ldquo;Reading even one Deathstalker leaves one feeling jollier than before, for the series continues to avoid the lapses of tone so common in humorous space opera and fantasy.&rdquo;&mdash;Booklist&ldquo;Rip-roaring space opera with dastardly villains, exciting battles, nefarious plots, and strong willed heroes.&rdquo;&mdash;Chronicle &ldquo;Fans of the various Star Wars and Star Trek novels are going to love Green&rsquo;s epic science fiction series. Plenty of action and adventure.&rdquo;&mdash;Midwest Book Review&ldquo;The Deathstalker family legacy and the battle for the throne are reminiscent of high fantasy, and the wisecracking heroes and villains would feel at home in a Hollywood action-adventure blockbuster. Green has created an amazing universe that stretches light years into the far future.&rdquo;&mdash;RT Book Reviews

Ferriss finds precision amid ambiguity in her acute study of Sofia Coppola's second feature. . . . Sharp on the movie-wise banter between Bob and Charlotte, she's equally sensitive to the film's unspoken, unresolved feelings: in Ferriss' reading, Lost unfolds like a pop song, its fragments charged with lingering feeling.

"This is an introductory textbook on finite element analysis and practice aimed at students with diverse backgrounds from engineering, technology, physics, geophysics and applied mathematics. The book provides accessibility to all students, with a minimum of mathematical analysis.... The last chapter is dedicated to computer programs in Mathematica, Ansys, Matlab and Fortran. There are six appendices, 87 examples and 148 exercises. The book ends with a bibliography and a detailed subject index."
—Mathematical Reviews
"This book is introductory in the sense of being accessible to students not only of mathematics, but also of the physical and the engineering sciences once they have mastered the introductory mathematical courses. It is also introductory in the sense of not providing the reader with all the theoretical framework of convergence analysis of the FE-method based on Sobolev spaces, etc. Rather it is content with explaining the very basic ideas behind FE. In a different sense it does however lead to relatively advanced topics, namely from the standpoint of applications.… Overall, the presentation is quite detailed regarding the needs of the practitioner with many examples to engineering, earth sciences, etc. (among others elasticity, vibrations, heat transfer, fluid flow; also eigenvalue problems), and special but important items not so often covered in other texts, e.g., how to cope with the specific difficulties arising in polar coordinates. Both numerous exercises and codes in Ansys, Fortran, Mathematica and MATLAB direct the reader towards experimentation of his own."
