Editorial Review Product Description First published in 1988, Ecological and Behavioral Methods for the Study of Bats is widely acknowledged as the primary reference for both amateur and professional bat researchers. Bats are the second most diverse group of mammals on the earth. They live on every continent except Antarctica, ranging from deserts to tropical forests to mountains, and their activities have a profound effect on the ecosystems in which they live. Despite their ubiquity and importance, bats are challenging to study. This volume provides researchers, conservationists, and consultants with the ecological background and specific information essential for studying bats in the wild and in captivity. Chapters detail many of the newest and most commonly used field and laboratory techniques needed to advance the study of bats, describe how these methods are applied to the study of the ecology and behavior of bats, and offer advice on how to interpret the results of research. The book includes forty-three chapters, fourteen of which are new to the second edition, with information on molecular ecology and evolution, bioacoustics, chemical communication, flight dynamics, population models, and methods for assessing postnatal growth and development. Fully illustrated and featuring contributions from the world's leading experts in bat biology, this reference contains everything bat researchers and natural resource managers need to know for the study and conservation of this wide-ranging, ecologically vital, and diverse taxon.

Basics is the operative key word While this book was well written, it is for novices and non-attendees and their children. I do not have a title to recommend for adults preparing for bar/bat mitzvah.
Truly the only book you'll need as a Bar/Bat Mitzvah guide
Indispensable Guide to the Bar/Bat Mitzvah Experience There is also a particularlywonderful chapter on the Bar/Bat Mitzvah experience for a special needschild. What I particularly like about the book is the fact that it containscontributed chapters from rabbis, cantors, educators, sociologists, andother experts- and even parents and teens- all of whom share their uniqueperspectives.This isn't one person's "philosophy", but rather acompendium of insights, ideas, and advice. The cover of the book says "Howto manage the process with grace, joy and good sense".The book succeedsin that, andI can't imagine anyone planning a Bar/Bat Mitzvah for theirchild without this handy family guide! ...

Editorial Review Product Description Now available for the first time in years, My Turn at Bat is Ted Williams' own story of his spectacular life and baseball career. An acclaimed best-seller, My Turn at Bat now features new photographs and, for the first time, Ted's reflections on his managing career and the state of baseball as it is played in the 1980s. It's all here in this brilliant, honest and sometimes angry autobiography -- Williams' childhood days in San Diego, his military service, his unforgettable major league baseball debut and ensuing Hall of Fame career that included two Triple Crowns, two Most Valuable Player awards, six batting championships, five Sporting News awards as Major League Player of the Year, 521 lifetime homeruns and a .344 career batting average. And Williams tells his side of the controversies, from his battles with sportswriters and Boston fans to his single World Series performance and his career with the declining Red Sox of the 1950s. My Turn at Bat belongs in the library of everyone who loves Ted Williams, baseball, or great life stories well-told. Red Barber proclaimed My Turn at Bat to be: "One of the best baseball books I've ever read." John Leonard of The New York Times said My Turn at Bat was "unbuttoned and wholly engaging...the portrait of an original who is unrepentant about being better than anyone else." Customer Reviews (16)

Editorial Review Product Description In a world without wood, we might not be here at all. We wouldn't have had the fire, heat, and shelter that allowed us to expand into the planet's colder regions. If civilization somehow did develop, our daily lives would be vastly different: there would be no violins, baseball bats, chopsticks, or wine corks. The book you are now holding wouldn't exist. Spike Carlsen's A Splintered History of Wood is a grand celebration of all things wooden and the characters who lovingly shape them—eccentric artisans and passionate enthusiasts who have created some of the world's most beloved musical instruments, feared weapons, dazzling architecture, and bizarre forms of transportation. From champion chainsaw carvers to blind woodworkers, from the Miraculous Staircase to the Lindbergh kidnapping case, here is a passionate, personal, amazingly entertaining exploration of nature's greatest gift.

Home Run
Great Joy in Mudville For their favorite ballad's history was fading fast away. So when "Casey's Wife" was hard to find, and other poems were worse, Apallor wreathed the features of the patrons of the verse. A staggeringfew gave up the search, leaving there the rest, With hope that springseternal, within the human breast. For they thought if only Gardner wouldtake a careful look, They'd put their hard-earned money down, if Gardnerwrote a book. But collecting all the parodies was too much work todo; Mad Magazine had written one; and Grantland Rice wrote two. And sothe stricken multitude might never get to know 'em, For there seemed butlittle chance of learning all about the poem. But Dover publications hasa Casey book to read, With every bit of Casey lore that you will everneed. To find these old forgotten poems, you need just take a look, ForGardner, Martin Gardner, has compiled them in a book. There is fun inGardner's comments; there is wit from this old sage; There are reams ofcareful research, and notes on every page. So if you click the button,and wait a day or two, There'll be Casey on your bookshelf, withall the others, too. ... Oh, somewhere in these fabled lands, the sun isall too dim, A band is silent somewhere, and somewhere hopes areslim, And baseball lore is fading, and no one cares a bit, But there isgreat joy in Mudville - Martin Gardner's scored a hit! ...
