Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Jonah Hex knows ugly, and that ain’t just a matter of lookin’ in the mirror. As the Wild West’s most (in)famous bounty hunter, he’s seen just about every form of inhumanity a man can dish out - and that’s before you get to the out-and-out monsters. But even if he has seen everything under the sun, there are still some fresh hells even Hex has yet to come across. Some of ‘em come from the past - like the savage who’s about to bring the plague to the teeming masses of the lawless city known as Gotham. And some of ‘em hail from the future - like Red River Junction’s strange new sheriff, a fella who dresses like a circus freak and goes by the name of Booster Gold. Hex is about to mix it up with immortals, time travelers, devil worshippers, vigilantes and more, taking him from Gotham City to the Rio Grande and back. When the smoke from his six-shooters clears, who will be left standing? ALL STAR WESTERN: GOLD STANDARD sees the creative team of Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray (POWER GIRL) and artists Moritat (THE SPIRIT) and Staz Johnson (ROBIN) take aim at Jonah Hex’s wildest team-up yet!

Statistical Methods in Water Resources
Author: D.R. Helsel
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080875084
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 539
Book Description
Data on water quality and other environmental issues are being collected at an ever-increasing rate. In the past, however, the techniques used by scientists to interpret this data have not progressed as quickly. This is a book of modern statistical methods for analysis of practical problems in water quality and water resources.The last fifteen years have seen major advances in the fields of exploratory data analysis (EDA) and robust statistical methods. The 'real-life' characteristics of environmental data tend to drive analysis towards the use of these methods. These advances are presented in a practical and relevant format. Alternate methods are compared, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each as applied to environmental data. Techniques for trend analysis and dealing with water below the detection limit are topics covered, which are of great interest to consultants in water-quality and hydrology, scientists in state, provincial and federal water resources, and geological survey agencies.The practising water resources scientist will find the worked examples using actual field data from case studies of environmental problems, of real value. Exercises at the end of each chapter enable the mechanics of the methodological process to be fully understood, with data sets included on diskette for easy use. The result is a book that is both up-to-date and immediately relevant to ongoing work in the environmental and water sciences.

The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind
Author: Julian Jaynes
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
ISBN: 0547527543
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 580
Book Description
National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry
