Fire Ecology of Pacific Northwest Forests
ISBN: 9781559632300 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 505 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. It was once widely believed that landscapes become increasingly stable over time until eventually reaching a climax state of complete stability. In recent years, however, that idea has been challenged by a new understanding of the importance and inevitability of forces such as storms and fires that keep ecosystems in a state of constant change. The dynamics of fire ecology has emerged as a central feature of the new understanding as scientists and land managers redefine traditional assumptions about the growth and development of ecosystems. Fire Ecology of Pacific Northwest Forests is a...

ISBN: 9780520251250 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A compelling story of place, Steward's Fork explores northwest California's magnificent Klamath Mountains--a region that boasts a remarkable biodiversity, a terrain so rugged that significant landscape features are still being discovered there, and a wealth of natural resources that have been used, and more recently abused, by humans for millennia. James K. Agee, a forest ecologist with more than fifty years experience in the Klamaths, provides a multidimensional perspective on this region and asks: how can we most effectively steward this spectacular landscape toward a sustainable...

ISBN: 9780415534284 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Filling a significant gap in the cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary literature within the field of Pasifika (Polynesian) and Maori identities and mental health, this volume focuses on bridging mental health related research and practice within the indigenous communities of the South Pacific.

Borger
ISBN: 9781531657093 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 130 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. When A.P. "Ace" Borger came from Oklahoma to the Texas Panhandle's high plains in 1926, he saw what others had seen: a barren landscape, populated sparsely, with cattle and wildlife. However, through the experienced eyes of a town builder, Ace envisioned a booming, growing, all-American city. They laughed when he bought 240 acres thinking the attraction of black gold would bring enough people to make a profit. Borger was a true boomtown with all the appendages--fugitives, drug dealers, gaming houses, dance halls, prostitutes, and dishonest officers--though one could say boomtown hysteria...

The Streets of San Francisco: Policing and the Creation of a Cosmopolitan Liberal Politics, 1950-1972
ISBN: 9780226378084 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 339 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. During the Sixties the nation turned its eyes to San Francisco as the city's police force clashed with movements for free speech, civil rights, and sexual liberation. These conflicts on the street forced Americans to reconsider the role of the police officer in a democracy. In The Streets of San Francisco Christopher Lowen Agee explores the surprising and influential ways in which San Francisco liberals answered that question, ultimately turning to the police as partners, and reshaping understandings of crime, policing, and democracy. The Streets of San Francisco uncovers...

The Physicists: A Comedy in Two Acts
ISBN: 9780802144270 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "The Physicists" is a provocative and darkly comic satire about life in modern times, by one of Europe s foremost dramatists and the author of the internationally celebrated "The Visit." The world s greatest physicist, Johann Wilhelm Mobius, is in a madhouse, haunted by recurring visions of King Solomon. He is kept company by two other equally deluded scientists: one who thinks he is Einstein, the other who believes he is Newton. It soon becomes evident, however, that these three are not as harmlessly lunatic as they appear. Are they, in fact, really mad? Or are they playing some murderous...

The Visit: A Tragicomedy
ISBN: 9780802144263 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Friedrich Durrenmatt is considered one of the most significant playwrights of our time. During the years of the Cold War, arguably only Beckett, Camus, Sartre, and Brecht rivaled him as a presence in European letters. In this ALTA National Translation Award-winning new translation of what many critics consider his finest play, Joel Agee gives a fresh lease to a classic of twentieth-century theater. Durrenmatt once wrote of himself: "I can best be understood if one grasps grotesqueness," and The Visit is a consummate, alarming Durrenmatt blend of hilarity, horror, and vertigo. The play...
