Book Description
Johnny Drummer is a brilliant trial attorney and Vietnam vet living in Houston. On the outside, Johnny appears successful. But on the inside, Johnny is wrestling with discontent. After deciding it is time to follow his heart, Johnny develops a new plan for his life and leaves for Peru. Soon after his arrival, Johnny befriends Enrique Taurus, a bull of a man with a mysterious past who invites him on lively adventures in the Amazon jungle. When a British archaeologist summons the friends to Guyana without explanation, they willingly travel to learn what he wants: help finding a lost Atlantean colony and the reason for the 1925 disappearance of famous explorer, Colonel Percy Fawcett. But not long after Professor Troy, Johnny, and their guide, Bull, embark on new jungle adventures, they are attacked by native headhunters. After being rescued by aliens, Johnny learns he has been chosen to defend the human race from extinction. Despite the odds against him, Johnny enters the game with only one goal: to win. In this sci-fi adventure, an eccentric attorney partners with an old archeologist to defend human history as Earth awaits a chance for change.

Book Description
Angelo Bonatura, a perfectionist in all he did--fishing, turkey shooting, politicking, murder and bootlegging--was understandably put out when his sheriff, the incumbent Big Turk, lost the election to young McCalla the candidate of the "dry" element in the county. McCalla, whose father the police chief had once long ago prevented Angelo from practising his legitimate trade as a barber, proved hard to kill. But there were other ways of removing an honest sheriff and Angelo found a simple but foolproof method in the person of a young woman who wanted lots of money very badly

The Noble Gases as Geochemical Tracers
Author: Pete Burnard
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642288367
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
The twelve chapters of this volume aim to provide a complete manual for using noble gases in terrestrial geochemistry, covering applications which range from high temperature processes deep in the Earth’s interior to tracing climatic variations using noble gases trapped in ice cores, groundwaters and modern sediments. Other chapters cover noble gases in crustal (aqueous, CO2 and hydrocarbon) fluids and laboratory techniques for determining noble gas solubilities and diffusivities under geologically relevant conditions. Each chapter deals with the fundamentals of the analysis and interpretation of the data, detailing sampling and sampling strategies, techniques for analysis, sources of error and their estimation, including data treatment and data interpretation using recent case studies.
