' Every person on earth uses, either directly or indirectly, ten metric tons of minerals each year.' So write Dr R. V. Dietrich & Dr Brian J. Skinner in their new book Gems, Granites, & Gravels. Minerals & mineral products are involved in all aspects of our lives; we depend on them to keep us alive & ensure the continuity of our society. As a consequence, they have been a source of fascination & study throughout human history. In this book, Drs Dietrich & Skinner consider not only the beauty of minerals & rocks, but also their utility & their roles in our everyday well-being. Gems, Granites & Gravels is a valuable introduction to mineralogy & to related specialities such as petrology (the study of rocks), crystallography (the study of crystals), & soil science. Discoveries in these fields are described in a historical context, while the authors explain what minerals & rocks are, how they are distributed around the world, how we depend on them, & where to see the most beautiful specimens of both minerals & rocks. This book will appeal to anyone interested in natural history & curious about rocks & minerals, including rock & mineral collectors, students of geology, & professional geologists. ...

Ancestry-tracing is fun; it brings history to life & it gives a greater sense of personal identity. Our ancestors become real people; they may have been ordinary, blue-blooded or famous, but whatever they were the search itself is rewarding. Tracing a family history & gradually constructing one`s own unique pedigree is an absorbing hobby, a never-ending detective investigation. This book tells the beginner exactly how to set about it: how to collect information from living relatives, how to make full use of all existing clues & traditions, how & where to find written records & what information they can be expected to provide as well as the likely problems that may be encountered & possible ways to solve them. Many books have been written for the would-be genealogist but none has ever equalled the success or popularity of Arthur Willis`s Genealogy for Beginners. Since it was first published in 1955, this readable little guide has introduced far more ancesty-tracers to the subject than any other. Now it has been completely revised & re-written by Karin Proudfoot, so that it is once more the most up-to-date book on the subject & the best buy for the beginner of today. ...

Generation Revolution unravels the complex forces shaping the lives of four young Egyptians caught between tradition & modernity, & what their stories mean for the future of the Middle East. In 2003, Rachel Aspden arrived in Egypt as a 23-year-old trainee journalist. She found a country on the brink of change. The two-thirds of Egypt`s 80 million citizens under the age of 30 were stifled, broken & frustrated, caught between a dictatorship that had nothing to offer them & their autocratic parents` generation, & left clinging to tradition & obedience by a lifetime of fear. In January 2011, the young people`s patience ran out. They thought the revolution that followed would change everything for them. But as violence escalated, the economy collapsed & as the united front against Mubarak shattered into sectarianism, many found themselves wavering, hesitant to discard the old ways. What happens when a revolution unravels? Why is a generation raised on Hollywood movies & global brand names turning to religion? How do you choose between sex & tradition, consumerism & faith? Why would people who once chanted for freedom support a military state? And where will the next generation take the Middle East? Following the stories of four young Egyptians
- Amr the atheist software engineer, Amal the village girl who defied her family & her entire community, Ayman the one-time religious extremist & Ruqayah the would-be teenage martyr
- Generation Revolution unravels the complex forces shaping the lives of young people caught between tradition & modernity, & what their stories mean for the future of the Middle East.

What is the history of human populations? How are cultural traditions maintained & changed over time? Why did people destroy their environments in the past & were they ever conservationists? What led to the emergence of marked social inequalities? These are some of the questions that this text addresses & answers, in an application of neo-Darwinian evolutionary ideas to the human past. Stephen Shennan opens with the study of human behaviour, as acted upon by natural selection, & goes on to demonstrate that the same ideas can be applied to human societies, not just through the genes but through what Richard Dawkins has called memes, units of cultural information which are passed on in our second inheritance system, culture. The book ranges from life history theory to game theory, & from the origins of farming to the collapse of societies. ...
