“This little gem fills you in on everything finned, furred, feathered, or leafed, and how to find it, in all five boroughs” (House and Garden). New York just might be the most biologically diverse city in temperate America. The five boroughs sit atop one of the most naturally rich sites in North America, directly under the Atlantic migratory flyway, at the mouth of a 300-mile-long river, and on three islands?Manhattan, Staten, and Long. Leslie Day, a New York City naturalist, reveals this amazing world in her Field Guide to the Natural World of New York City. Combining the stunning paintings of Mark A. Klingler with a variety of photographs and maps, this book is a complete guide for the urban naturalist?with tips on identifying the city's flora and fauna and maps showing the nearest subway stop. Here is your personal guide to the real wild side of America’s largest city. Throw it in your backpack, hop on the subway, and explore. “Dr. Day . . . A sort of Julia Child of nature.” —Ellen Pall, New York Times “Provides historic facts, photographs and maps to give a snapshot of the city’s natural resources and to remind hard-charging New Yorkers of the unchanging parts of their environment.” —Sally Goldenberg, Staten Island Advance “This book should be in every New Yorker’s library as both reference and inspiration for low-carbon-impact journeys to places of unexpected beauty and tranquility.” —Crawford-Doyle Booksellers Newsletter “You may well wonder why I am reviewing a book about New York city when we preach 'local, local, local' throughout these pages. I'll tell you, because this beautifully illustrated handbook is a wonderful example of exploring the bucolic city. . . . All illustrated with gorgeous watercolors by Klingler. We should have one of these. But in the meantime, you will find many of the same species in our fair cities., so why not pick up a copy for inspiration?”—Minneapolis Observer Quarterly

This book is the first to identify an interpretive path through Paleolithic cave art that can provide plausible meaning to the animal figures in the Lascaux cave in France. The artwork was created during a period described as the Creative Explosion, spanning from 35,000 to 11,000 BC. The author has found that the artists, or shamans, have left clear evidence of aspects of their worldview and by using ethological evidence, such as a bison shedding its winter coat to identify spring as the season portrayed in a specific panel, he adds a level of certainty to his interpretations. In sum, this book argues that the cave art describes the journey of the soul from the spirit world to the natural world and back, and that it identifies a spectrum of consciousness involving the five traditional senses: sight, smell, touch, taste and hearing. Moreover, the book explores the hunting strategies employed early survival groups which are depicted in the cave art. The role of the shamans’ impact on the artwork is also addressed.

There are ten conditions of life that we experience in our daily lives; three of the lower realms are hidden in the dark recesses of our mind causing despair, self-hatred and reactive behavior beyond normal conscious control. Rather than being at the mercy of our surroundings, we can shed light in these blind areas and receive Liberation through the intent of the Wrathful One, Yamantaka, the lord of death. This is symbolic of gaining insight in the Intermediate State during the subtlest level of our mind.

Introduction to QR, Quantitative Reasoning and Discrete Mathematics was designed for the introductory college student who may not have fully understood mathematical concepts in secondary schools. With a focus on applications, this book is divided into small digestible pieces with lots of examples illustrating a variety of topics. Use the whole book for a two semester sequence, or pick and choose topics to make a single semester course. The most basic of algebra topics are reintroduced, with an emphasis on learning how to translate scenarios into problems that can be solved or modeled with linear functions. Scientific notation and significant figures are applied to problems involving unit conversion, including examples with the Consumer Price Index. The basics of personal finance are explained, including interest, loans, mortgages, and taxes. Statistical topics are introduced to give the students the ability to look critically at the myriad of numerical sound bites tossed out in today’s social media. Combinatorics and probability topics are introduced in a way to be accessible to students seeing the material for the first time. Logic and graph theory are used to solve some traditional types of games and puzzles. Applications are connected to issues in modern Christianity with references to 18th century philosopher Emanuel Swedenborg, including why Intelligent Design does not act as proof of God, and how random chance and Divine Providence work together. Each chapter ends with a project related to the chapter, often involving spreadsheet programs or website data collection. About the Author Neil Simonetti, PhD, Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science at Bryn Athyn College, has been teaching Mathematics, Computer Science and Operations Research courses for almost 20 years. He is committed to showing students who are afraid of mathematics that the basics of this subject do not have to be difficult and confusing. This work results from discovering what these students need in mathematics to succeed in business, science, and social science courses.

"In Consecrating Science, Lisa Sideris offers a searing critique of 'The New Cosmology,' a complex network of overlapping movements that claim to bring together science and spirituality, all in the name of saving our planet from impending ecological collapse. Highly regarded in many academic circles, these movements have been endorsed by numerous prominent scholars, scientists, historians, and educators. Their express goal--popularized in numerous books, films, TED talks, YouTube videos, podcasts, and even introductory courses at places like Harvard or Washington University--is to instill in readers and audiences a profound sense of being at home in the universe, thereby fostering environmentally responsible behavior. Whether promoted as 'The New Story,' 'The Universe Story,' or 'The Epic of Evolution,' they all offer humanity a new sacred story, a common creation myth for modern times and for all people: the evolutionary unfolding of the universe from the Big Bang to the present. Evolutionary science and religious cosmology--together at last! But as Sideris shows, however, the New Cosmology actually underwrites a staggeringly anthropocentric vision of the world. Instead of cultivating an ethic of respect for nature, the project of 'consecrating science' only increases human arrogance and indifference to nonhuman life. Going back to the work of Rachel Carson and other naturalists, the author shows how a sense of wonder, rooted in the natural world and our own ethical impulses, helps foster environmental attitudes and policies that protect our planet"--Provided by publishe

Learn that it is safe to embrace the sacred dark, for there is much wisdom there. As a matter of fact, much is taken from my own personal Book of Shadows, where I reveal the inner mysteries of rites, beliefs and also the practices of the Old Religion. This book, The Book of Shadows will challenge your own perceptions as you explore the Eleusinian Mysteries, and begin to understand the role of the journey to the underworld. You will gain a new sense of the rich heritage that was passed on from the Old Ways in Southern Italy. Also in this Book are comparatives of different religions and how at the core they all connect together as one. Some examples of the exploration of this include: the resurrection of Jesus and the return of Persephone to the land of the living. Shedding new light on how both are an allegory of the journey of the soul. The Old Ways have their roots in the Indus Valley, it is delved into; where by speculating that they then eventually traveled to other lands.

This Delomelanicon, which means "Book of Summoning the Darkness" or "Invocation of Darkness" is a book of concealment about embracing the darkness hidden within the subconscious in order to have unconditionally self-acceptance. The verses in this book use Greek and Hebrew mythology as allegories about the chthonic or subconscious primal survival instincts of the mind. It is Kabbalistic as it focuses on the Dark Tree which is the roots of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, usually called by the Right-Hand Path of magic as the Qlippoth or Tree of Death. This is the opposite of the Biblical Book of Revelations which is about ascending from earth to heaven or Crown of Life which is the Crown of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, instead, this Book of Concealment is about descending from earth to hell, which is Kingdom on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life or root chakra in the chakras system in order to understand our animal instincts.
