Languages : en
Pages : 602
Book Description
Criminal Investigation, Third Edition, takes an integrated approach to the investigation process. This introductory text explores how contributors to criminal investigation—and its resulting prosecution—are more effective when they understand and appreciate their role on the team, what role other team members play, and how it all comes together. Readers will learn how investigations are connected to a team that is much larger than those charged with the investigations of a crime. The end result is a solid foundation in criminal investigation.

Fins into Limbs
Author: Brian K. Hall
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226313409
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 461
Book Description
Long ago, fish fins evolved into the limbs of land vertebrates and tetrapods. During this transition, some elements of the fin were carried over while new features developed. Lizard limbs, bird wings, and human arms and legs are therefore all evolutionary modifications of the original tetrapod limb. A comprehensive look at the current state of research on fin and limb evolution and development, this volume addresses a wide range of subjects—including growth, structure, maintenance, function, and regeneration. Divided into sections on evolution, development, and transformations, the book begins with a historical introduction to the study of fins and limbs and goes on to consider the evolution of limbs into wings as well as adaptations associated with specialized modes of life, such as digging and burrowing. Fins into Limbs also discusses occasions when evolution appears to have been reversed—in whales, for example, whose front limbs became flippers when they reverted to the water—as well as situations in which limbs are lost, such as in snakes. With contributions from world-renowned researchers, Fins into Limbs will be a font for further investigations in the changing field of evolutionary developmental biology.

Book Description
"Contaminated drinking water killed thousands of Chicago's original citizens, so the city took the unprecedented step of digging a tunnel two miles long and 30 feet below lake bottom. Since the facilities on shore included an unsightly 138-foot vertical pipe, famed architect William Boyington concealed it with a limestone, castle-like tower that soon became a celebrated landmark. Through the first 150 years of its existence, Chicago's iconic Water Tower has survived the Great Fire--the only public structure in the burn zone to do so--and at least four attempts at demolition. John Hogan pays tribute to the beloved monument that accompanied the evolution of Michigan Avenue from cowpath to Magnificent Mile."--Provided by publisher.

Book Description
In a world facing unprecedented challenges, a team of archaeologists stumbles upon a discovery that could rewrite the course of history. Their underwater exploration of the lost city of Kumari Kandam unearths a chilling message – a warning about a coming disaster triggered by a shift in the Earth's axis. But alongside the warning lies a beacon of hope: an intricate design for an advanced wind turbine capable of harnessing the wind and potentially stabilizing the planet. Eliana, a passionate archaeologist haunted by the echoes of the past, joins forces with Noah, a brilliant engineer seeking unconventional solutions. Guided by the spirit of Aravind, the visionary leader of Kumari Kandam, they embark on a thrilling quest to bridge the gap between ancient knowledge and modern science. Their journey is fraught with obstacles. Skepticism from the scientific community and relentless media scrutiny threaten to drown out their message. However, their unwavering belief in the power of collaboration and the potential of the past fuels their fight. Elias, a seasoned engineer ostracized for his unconventional ideas, becomes their unlikely ally. His workshop transforms into a hive of activity, the birthplace of a revolutionary technology – the Kumari Kandam Turbine. This majestic structure, a fusion of ancient design and modern ingenuity, stands as a testament to the forgotten city and a symbol of hope for the future. As the Kumari Kandam Turbine hums to life, generating clean energy and demonstrably stabilizing the Earth's axis, the world watches in awe. Eliana, Noah, and Elias, once ostracized outsiders, become reluctant heroes, their story a powerful reminder of the importance of open-mindedness and the groundbreaking potential that lies at the intersection of seemingly disparate fields of study. This captivating tale is more than just a thrilling adventure; it's a call to action. It urges us to look beyond established boundaries, to embrace the wisdom of the past, and to foster collaboration between science and history. As we face environmental challenges of our own, the echoes of Kumari Kandam offer a powerful message: the solutions to our future might lie hidden within the forgotten whispers of the past.
