Ancient Egyptian Materials and Technology
The book describes current research into all aspects of craftwork in ancient Egypt.
Fibres
This volume deals with the fibres of Tropical Africa. 515 ‘primary use’ fibres are described in 248 review articles. Many of the articles are illustrated with a geographic distribution map and a line drawing of the habit.
Jakob Hepper and His Descendants, 1836-1990
Jakob Hepper, born ca. 1836, probably in Grossliebental, South Russia married Karolina Karolina Kundert. Jakob died in 1904 and Karolina and some descendants came to the U.S. in 1909 and settled in South Dakota. Descendants lived in Russia, South Dakota, Kansas, Missouri, and elsewhere.
Tales from the Dead-House
A chilling collection of macabre crimes.
Mycorrhizal Symbiosis
In nature, the roots of most plants are colonized by symbiotic fungi to form mycorrhiza, which play a critical role in the capture of nutrients from the soil, and therefore in plant nutrition. Thirteen years have passed since the publication of the First Edition of Mycorrhizal Symbiosis, the book that has been generally acclaimed as the most definitive work on this fascinating topic. The Second Edition co-authored by Professor Sally Smith and Professor David Read has been completely rewritten to cover the significant advances in our understanding of this field.Key Features* Separate accounts of major mycorrhizal types, highlighting structure, development, physiology and ecology* Integrative treatment, covering nutrient transport, roles of mycorrhizas in ecology, applications in man-made environments, and interactions with pollutants* In depth treatment of evolutionary and developmental aspects, plus closer examination of external mycelium, and transport processes* Appreciation of diversity of form and function within major mycorrhizal types, and its importance in ecosystems
The Moonhawker
It is June of 1976 when Atticus Gunner pulls up in front of West High School, parks in a visitor parking space, and walks into the building ready to begin his foray into school administration as the new assistant principal. He has no idea that in just a few hours, his life will change forever. Later that day, during an unexpected meeting with his divorce attorney, Gunner a former member of a top-secret operations unit finds that his unique experience of identifying and hunting down escaped Nazis suspected of war atrocities is once again in high demand. After an anonymous philanthropic organization makes him a job offer he cannot refuse, he and his two young daughters very shortly find themselves on a thirty-two-foot sloop headed for an island in northern Lake Michigan. Directed to head a school of only one hundred students, it is not long before Gunner realizes he has embarked on a dangerous adventure. In this riveting thriller filled with unexpected twists and turns, one man is inadvertently propelled on an unforgettable journey through intrigue, romance, and murder. In the process, he'll discover more about himself than he ever imagined.
Advanced Crop Improvement, Volume 1
As per the reports of FAO, the human population will rise to 9 billion by the end of 2050 and 70% of more food must be produced over the next three decades to feed the additional population. The breeding approaches for crop improvement programs are dependent on the availability and accessibility of genetic variation, either spontaneous or induced by the mutagens. Plant breeders, agronomists, and geneticists are under constant pressure to expand food production by employing innovative breeding strategies to enhance yield, adaptability, nutrition, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. In conventional breeding approaches, introgression of genes in crop varieties is laborious and time-consu...

Mycorrhiza
Mycorrhizas are symbioses between fungi and the roots of higher plants. More than 90% of all plant species have the potential to form such associations, which are often essential for optimal plant growth and productivity. Leading experts cover aspects of - structure and function; - molecular biology; - biotechnological applications; - ecophysiology; - systematics.
