Mapping Men and Empire : Geographies of Adventure
ISBN: 9780415137713 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Adventure stories, produced and consumed in vast quantities in 18th, 19th and 20th-century Europe, narrate encounters between Europeans and the non-European world. They map both European and non-European peoples and places. Robinson Crusoe maps a white, male, Christian, middle-class adventurer - a vision for Britain - and it maps a petit-bourgeois, settled island with a white master and a black slave - a vision for British colonialism. Exotic, malleable, uncomplicated settings serve to neutralise and normalise constructs, that seem implausible in more immediately familiar, textured settings....

Ancient Meteorology
ISBN: 9780415161961 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

The Origin of Mountains
ISBN: 9780415198899 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume describes mountains from all over the world, with an emphasis on mountain landforms, but also looks at their rocks, structure and age. This leads to a deduction on the mechanism which formed them, causing the authors to reject the pre-conceived and well known hypothesis that plate tectonics and folding creates mountains. The book approaches mountains from facts about mountain landscapes rather than theory. It illustrates that almost everywhere, mountains arose by vertical uplift of a former plain, and by a mixture of cracking and warping by earth movements, and erosion by rivers...
