Customer Reviews and Description "Gorillas In The Mist" is more than just a scientific journal, it is a window into the world of nature itself. Dian Fossey paints a clear picture of her beloved mountain gorillas and brings forth her passion, through words, to save them from extinction. She went against the odds and changed the way we think about gorillas. She is a heroine in my eyes.

Customer Reviews and Description When I read this book in 1992 I trusted that following such an openly communicated personal account, backed by data from various scientific sources, would stir up things enough for U.S. politics to get interested in ecology and take action that would lead to sustainability. Since then I recommended this book to many people. It is a personal account of a prominent person (the man who should have become President), yet alarming enough for me to remember what I felt back then when I read it. Many of the mentioned ...

Customer Reviews and Description Katya Arnold's opening words in this book certainly get your attention. "I teach in two schools," she tells us, "One is in the city. The other is in the jungle. Some of my students have hands. Others have trunks." That is because, as the title indicates, some of Arnold's students are elephants. Born in Moscow, Arnold has written and illustrated books for children such as "Baba Yaga: A Russian Folktale" and "Me Too!: Two Small Stories About Small Animals." She teaches art to children at Saint Ann's School ... Read MoreRead Reviews and Description

Customer Reviews and Description I bought this book paired with the more advanced Canoecraft book and really couldn't be happier with both of them. Having read the Canoecraft book first I was left with some questions reguarding technical aspects of boatbuilding that this book answered wonderfully. The approach the author takes reflects one of an experienced teacher explaining the task with an eye toward common mistakes and how to avoid them. While the finished product as outlined is a bit heavy and lacking in elegance, as compared to the Canoecraft boat, ... Read MoreRead Reviews and Description

Customer Reviews and Description This guide is indispensable for locating the best snorkeling sites in Kauai. The information on public parking as well as entering and exiting the water at the sites is very helpful. I just returned from a trip to Kauai, and this book was absolutely priceless in helping me choose the best snorkeling sites on the island. If you're a serious snorkeler, this is the book for you! Even if you're interested only in swimming beaches on Kauai, this book is great for getting directions to the beaches and info on public parking.

Customer Reviews and Description What has particularly excited me is the opening chapter on "Cyberdrama"... it discusses approaches to story, game play and engagement in terms that echo what we are trying to achieve in Drama education. Throughout the book (and this is from preliminary browsing) there are discussions about narrative and simulation and disticntions being drawn bewteen perceptual positions of players ... the writers that have contributed to this book have a very clear sense of the notion of "role" and I am starting to think that this book may well serve ...

Customer Reviews and Description The Erie Canal was the first great 'infrastructure' project in American history. As the author, and many others, point out, it became the first low cost transportation avenue through the Appalachians, catalyzed an enormous amount of economic development, and became a symbol of what an intelligent, active government could do. The author attempts, with modest success, to set the history of the Erie Canal in the context of American and 19th century economic history. This book is largely based on secondary sources, including prior books on ... Read MoreRead Reviews and Description
