THE FIRST AND THE WORST BOOK EVER TO BE WRITTEN BY THE WORSTSELLING BOOK AUTHOR KARABALSAGUN!!! A Chronically Depressed Private Eye Is Confronted By A Yet-Another-Jealous-Wife Client On A Vain Quest To Find Out With Whom Her Lecherous Husband Is Dating... And This Is Just The Beginning Of A Series Of Events To Change Their And Many Other People's Lives For Good. BLEAAAAAAAGHHHH!!!! - Reader's Disgust About forty thousand words and two hundred pages of worthless, useless, pointless gibberish. Do not buy it. If you ever bought it, return it. If you cannot return it, dump it - The Boston Blob. Karabalsagun's debut novel clearly display's that this author is totally compromised, unable to write a readworthy story, and must be barred, banned and killed on sight - The New York Lies. This is the first book of the Ned Saga. The next book scheduled to be published is "The Weinbergs - Another Ned Story". So, if you want to see (and make me to bother to write) the second book, better buy a multitude of copies and present them to your friends. Keep this in mind; you're paying the money not for this book. No. You're paying to sponsor the writing of the second one.

Restoration Ecology
Author: Jelte van Andel
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1444336355
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 409
Book Description
Enlarged, enhanced and internationalized edition of the first restoration ecology textbook to be published, with foreword by Dr. Steven Whisnant of Texas A&M University and Chair of the Society of Ecological Restoration. Since 2006, when the first edition of this book appeared, major advances have taken place in restoration science and in the practice of ecological restoration. Both are now accepted as key components of the increasingly urgent search for sustainability at global, national, and community levels – hence the phrase 'New Frontier' in the title. While the first edition focused on ecosystems and landscapes in Europe, this new edition covers biomes and contexts all over the world. Several new chapters deal with broad issues such as biological invasions, climate change, and agricultural land abandonment as they relate to restoration science and ecological restoration. Case studies are included from Australia, North America, and the tropics. This is an accessible textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate level students, and early career scientists. The book also provides a solid scientific background for managers, volunteers, and mid-career professionals involved in the practice of ecological restoration. Review of the first edition: "I suspect that this volume will find its way onto the shelves of many restoration researchers and practitioners and will be used as a key text in graduate courses, where it will help fill a large void. My own copy is already heavily bookmarked, and will be a constant source of research ideas and lecture material."

The Sparrowhawk
Author: Ian Newton
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1408138328
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 421
Book Description
Dr Newton is now a senior ornithologist with the Natural Environment Research Council and the book draws on his wide knowledge of the Sparrowhawk, as well as that of other workers in Britain and abroad. The text gives a detailed account of all aspects of the Sparrowhawk's lifestyle, population levels and trends, and the impact of man and environment on the species in recent times. The book also has the benefit of Dr Newton's particular interest in population regulation and breeding performance, and in the remarkable contrast in size between the Sparrowhawk sexes (males being half the weight of females), which means that they diverge, almost as separate species, in habitat preference, diet and in response to circumstance. The narrative is fully supported by diagrams, tables and photographs, and is embellished by Keith Brockie's evocative and accomplished drawings.
