American Pests: The Losing War on Insects from Colonial Times to DDT
ISBN: 9780231139427 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The world of insects is one we only dimly understand. Yet from using arsenic, cobalt, and quicksilver to kill household infiltrators to employing the sophisticated tools of the Orkin Man, Americans have fought to eradicate the "bugs" they have learned to hate. Inspired by the still-revolutionary theories of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, James E. McWilliams argues for a more harmonious and rational approach to our relationship with insects, one that does not harm our environment and, consequently, ourselves along the way. Beginning with the early techniques of colonial farmers and...

A Revolution in Eating: How the Quest for Food Shaped America
ISBN: 9780231129923 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 387 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Sugar, pork, beer, corn, cider, scrapple, and hoppin' John all became staples in the diet of colonial America. The ways Americans cultivated and prepared food and the values they attributed to it played an important role in shaping the identity of the newborn nation. In A Revolution in Eating, James E. McWilliams presents a colorful and spirited tour of culinary attitudes, tastes, and techniques throughout colonial America.

Just Food: Where Locavores Get It Wrong and How We Can Truly Eat Responsibly
ISBN: 9780316033756 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) We suffer today from food anxiety, bombarded as we are with confusing messages about how to eat an ethical diet. Should we eat locally? Is organic really better for the environment? Can genetically modified foods be good for you?
JUST FOOD does for fresh food what "Fast Food Nation" (Houghton Mifflin, 2001) did for fast food, challenging conventional views, and cutting through layers of myth and misinformation. For instance, an imported tomato is more energy-efficient than a local greenhouse-grown tomato. And farm-raised freshwater fish may soon be the most sustainable source of protein....

Fundamentals of Geophysical Fluid Dynamics
ISBN: 9781107404083 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This book was first published in 2006. Earth's atmosphere and oceans exhibit complex patterns of fluid motion over a vast range of space and time scales. These patterns combine to establish the climate in response to solar radiation that is inhomogeneously absorbed by the materials comprising air, water, and land. Spontaneous, energetic variability arises from instabilities in the planetary-scale circulations, appearing in many different forms such as waves, jets, vortices, boundary layers, and turbulence. Geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD) is the science of all these types of fluid motion....

Quasi-Linear Theory for Surface Wave-Current Interactions
ISBN: 9789811928758 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book introduces a mathematical theory for the interaction of oceanic surface gravity waves and oceanic currents. This theory is formulated using the quasi-linear approximation for a uniform density fluid with a free surface and it provides wave-averaged expressions for the wave amplitudes and for the dynamical evolution of the currents. The surface gravity wave–current interaction theory is a more complete theory than previous with respect to an asymptotic expansion in the small parameter V/C, where V is a current speed and C is a wave speed. This book also illustrates the formal... This book introduces a mathematical theory for the interaction of oceanic surface gravity waves and oceanic currents. This theory is formulated usi... |
