Biogeography of Australasia
A fascinating analysis of the main patterns of distribution and evolution of the Australasian biota.
Molecular Panbiogeography of the Tropics
Molecular studies reveal highly ordered geographic patterns in plant and animal distributions. The tropics illustrate these patterns of community immobilism leading to allopatric differentiation, as well as other patterns of mobilism, range expansion, and overlap of taxa. Integrating Earth history and biogeography, Molecular Panbiogeography of the Tropics is an alternative view of distributional history in which groups are older than suggested by fossils and fossil-calibrated molecular clocks. The author discusses possible causes for the endemism of high-level taxa in tropical America and Madagascar, and overlapping clades in South America, Africa, and Asia. The book concludes with a critique of adaptation by selection, founded on biogeography and recent work in genetics.
Messerschmidt's Character Heads
This book examines a famous series of sculptures by the German artist Franz Xaver Messerschmidt (1736–1783) known as his "Character Heads." These are busts of human heads, highly unconventional for their time, representing strange, often inexplicable facial expressions. Scholars have struggled to explain these works of art. Some have said that Messerschmidt was insane, while others suggested that he tried to illustrate some sort of intellectual system. Michael Yonan argues that these sculptures are simultaneously explorations of art’s power and also critiques of the aesthetic limits that would be placed on that power.
GTA V: THE FINAL WAR: The Chronicles Of Life
Based on 2019 Blockbuster hit "GTA V: THE FINAL WAR"! Explore the danger of this book as, Micheal, Franklin, Trevor, Jimmy, Amanda & More GTA V Characters, goes to great lengths to tear Los Santos apart. Trevor's childhood itself was an unhappy one. His father was physically abusive towards him, as stated in Hang Ten, while his mother was emotionally abusive, overbearing, treated him with condescension and saw him as a "useless boy" who cared little about his mother. When he was a child, Trevor's father abandoned him in a shopping mall, which Trevor later burned down in retaliation. Trevor also had a brother named Ryan, whom Trevor was not fond of. Ryan died in an "accident" prior to 2013. H...
Atlantean
A magnificent city lost over time destroyed by the Gods and sent to the bottom of the Ocean forever later to be written by the Greek philosopher Plato in two dialogues. Destroyed was their home but not its people who rebuilt their city back to its former glory. Learning from their violent past not to repeat it, the centuries go by and the outside world has populated the surface, no place for the Atlantean people to call home. Safe from the outside world and their advanced technology that is generated by a rare element only found at the outer reaches of the solar system. The Atlanteans decide to stay below the waves to watch over and nurture the people from above giving them technology through the centuries until they are ready to accept them and their technology. Creating another city on the other side of Earth deep below the Pacific Ocean, the city grows rapidly hungry for more energy and power, the people in time rebel against Atlantis. With all-out war looming over the peaceful people of Atlantis, one man not from their world will come to understand the past and his future.
Biogeography and Evolution in New Zealand
Biogeography and Evolution in New Zealand provides the first in-depth treatment of the biogeography of New Zealand, a region that has been a place of long-enduring interest to ecologists, evolutionary scientists, geographers, geologists, and scientists in related disciplines. It serves as a key addition to the contemporary discussion on regionalization--how is New Zealand different from the rest of the world? With what other areas does it share its geology, history, and biota? Do new molecular phylogenies show that New Zealand may be seen as a biological 'parallel universe' within global evolution?
MICHAEL
Michael is a man who has been on an incredible adventure, and while he did return home, Michael will find that his journey is far from over. Michael will rediscover what it means to be a hero and finally fulfill his destiny in this epic conclusion to the Michael series.
Michael and the Whiz Kids
Imagine a boy, five feet tall and one hundred pounds, who wants to play high school basketball. Now imagine that he was blind until the age of six and that he’s the first black student to attend his suburban school. And there you have Michael Thompson in 1965 in San Bruno, California. He played at the school where a young English teacher was coaching “lightweight basketball,” a competition for smaller players that has since disappeared. The team that Coach John Christgau put together came to be called the Whiz Kids for the way they rocketed up and down the court, led by Michael and invariably winning. Michael and the Whiz Kids tells the story of the team’s 1968 championship season. I...
