Описание: Since its release in 1949, The Hero with a Thousand Faces has influenced millions of readers by combining the insights of modern psychology with Joseph Campbell's revolutionary understanding of comparative mythology. In these pages, Campbell outlines the Hero's Journey, a universal motif of adventure and transformation that runs through virtually all of the world's mythic traditions. He also explores the Cosmogonic Cycle, the mythic pattern of world creation and destruction. As part of the Joseph Campbell Foundation's Collected Works of Joseph Campbell, this third edition features expanded illustrations, a comprehensive bibliography, and more accessible sidebars. As relevant today as when it was first published, The Hero with a Thousand Faces continues to find new audiences in fields ranging from religion and anthropology to literature and film studies. The book has also profoundly influenced creative artists--including authors, songwriters, game designers, and filmmakers--and continues to inspire all those interested in the inherent human need to tell stories.

Описание: This book utilizes three theoretical models to analyze the defense conditions and preparedness of all the states of Eastern Europe. Their transition from Cold War communism to post-Cold War democracies, the stability of the East-Central European States, the precarious defense positions of the Baltic states, and the uneven defense preparedness of the Balkan states are at the heart of the analysis. -- .

Описание: The ultimate field guide to the most bewildering and elusive topic in all literature: Dark Meaning, a subject that hitherto has only been accessible after deep study and courageous initiation to the most resourceful and sagacious of scholars, withdrawn, lab-coated persons who occasionally may be found stumbling about in forests, taking cryptic notes in their squared-paper moleskins from closely attended birdsong and astronomical observations. Now this indispensable collection of essays, stories, poems and scripts blasts the subject into public consciousness and beyond.
The irresistible enthusiasm of Great Adaptations couldn't come at a better time.--David P. Barash, Wall Street Journal
Be very amazed.--Carl Safina, author of Beyond Words and Becoming Wild How one scientist unlocked the secrets behind some of nature's most astounding animals From star-nosed moles that have super-sensing snouts to electric eels that paralyze their prey, animals possess unique and extraordinary abilities. In Great Adaptations, Kenneth Catania presents an entertaining and engaging look at some of nature's most remarkable creatures. Telling the story of his biological detective work, Catania sheds light on the mysteries behind the behaviors of tentacled snakes, tiny shrews, zombie-making wasps, and more. He shows not only how studying these animals can provide deep insights into how life evolved, but also how scientific discovery can be filled with adventure and fun. Beginning with the star-nosed mole, Catania reveals what the creature's nasal star is actually for, and what this tells us about how brains work. He explores how the deceptive hunting strategy of tentacled snakes leads prey straight to their mouths, how eels use electricity to control other animals, and why emerald jewel wasps make zombies out of cockroaches. He also solves the enigma of worm grunting--a traditional technique in which earthworms are enticed out of the ground--by teaming up with professional worm grunters. Catania demonstrates the merits of approaching science with an open mind, considers the role played by citizen scientists, and illustrates that most animals have incredible, hidden abilities that defy our imagination. Examining some strange and spectacular creatures, Great Adaptations offers a wondrous journey into nature's grand designs.

Описание: In this book, Sarah Broadie presents an original and lucid in-depth discussion of the Republic`s philosopher-rulers, their dialectic, and their relationship to the form of the good. By reconceiving that form as `interrogative`, the book interprets those central reference-points of Platonism in down-to-earth terms without undermining Plato`s philosophical greatness.

Описание: This is a romance between two mature people who might never have discovered their true feelings for each other without the bizarre help of Vic Spooner and his family. Vic is in the building game and in that he is successful. He is a member of the rotary club and pillar of the local community, but his private life is dogged by mishap and misunderstandings as a result of which, he frequently finds himself in some hilarious situations. It was a matter of 5000, originally intended to be an anonymous donation to the church roof fund, that played a major part in his affairs as it got stolen, hidden, discovered and misappropriated at least once before it finally reached its destination. Vic's misfortune tends to rub off onto those he comes into contact with as well, as the mayor discovers to her cost but in spite of all this, the redoubtable Mrs Spooner takes matters in hand and brings success from what seemed like heading towards total chaos on more than one occasion. This is a story that gallops along and will keep you intrigued right to the end, when even the bishop comes under the influence of Spooner's net of mishap.

Описание: General Chemistry: Understanding Moles, Bonds, and Equilibria, Volume 2 introduces students to foundational concepts in chemistry with emphasis on real-world application. Throughout the text, students learn how the study of chemistry supports material science, forensics, medicine, and other disciplines.The text is a continuation of Volume 1 of the same name. This volume includes 11 chapters that can be taught traditionally or in a non-linear fashion. Topics include kinetics, chemical and acid-base equilibrium, and solubility and complex ion equilibria. Dedicated chapters address thermodynamics and equilibrium, electrochemistry and equilibrium, transition metals and coordination chemistry, nuclear chemistry, organic chemistry, and biochemistry and biotechnology.The book features problems that span multiple chapters, topic boxes that contain worked examples, concurrent presentation of the VSEPR and Valence Bond theories to allow each to reinforce the other, and integration of environmental topics within distinct sections of appropriate chapters. Introductions, summaries, problems, application examples, and meaningful appendices further facilitate student learning, rendering General Chemistry an ideal textbook for foundational chemistry courses.
