PDF-(READ)-Ancient Wine: The Search for the Origins of Viniculture (Princeton Science Library,

A richly illustrated account of the story of ancient vinicultureThe history of civilization is in many ways the history of wine This book is the first comprehensive account of the earliest stages of the history and prehistory of viniculture which extends back into the Neolithic period and beyond Elegantly written and richly illustrated Ancient Wine opens up whole new chapters in the fascinating story of wine by drawing on recent archaeological discoveries molecular and DNA sleuthing and the writings and art of ancient peoples In a new afterword the author discusses exciting recent developments in the understanding of ancient wine including a new theory of how viniculture came to central and northern Europe. princetonedu Abstract In recent years many shape representations and geomet ric algorithms have been proposed for matching 3D shapes Usually each algorithm is tested on a different small database of 3D models and thus no direct comparison is availabl August AUGUST PRINCETON EDU Department of Computer Science Princeton University Princeton NJ 08540 USA Abstract To meet the performance demands of modern architectures compilers incorporate an ever increasing number of aggressive code transformation Information Retrieval.

Around 200,000 years ago, a man--identical to us in all important respects--lived in Africa. Every person alive today is descended from him. How did this real-life Adam wind up father of us all? What happened to the descendants of other men who lived at the same time? And why, if modern humans share a single prehistoric ancestor, do we come in so many sizes, shapes, and races?Showing how the secrets about our ancestors are hidden in our genetic code, Spencer Wells reveals how developments in the cutting-edge science of population genetics have made it possible to create a family tree for the whole of humanity. We now know not only where our ancestors lived but who they fought, loved, and influenced.Informed by this new science, The Journey of Man is replete with astonishing information. Wells tells us that we can trace our origins back to a single Adam and Eve, but that Eve came first by some 80,000 years. We hear how the male Y-chromosome has been used to trace the spread of humanity from Africa into Eurasia, why differing racial types emerged when mountain ranges split population groups, and that the San Bushmen of the Kalahari have some of the oldest genetic markers in the world. We learn, finally with absolute certainty, that Neanderthals are not our ancestors and that the entire genetic diversity of Native Americans can be accounted for by just ten individuals.It is an enthralling, epic tour through the history and development of early humankind--as well as an accessible look at the analysis of human genetics that is giving us definitive answers to questions we have asked for centuries, questions now more compelling than ever.

J. E. Gordon\'s classic introduction to the properties of materials used in engineering answers some fascinating and fundamental questions about how the structural world around us works. Gordon focuses on so-called strong materials--such as metals, wood, ceramics, glass, and bone--explaining in engaging and accessible terms the unique physical and chemical basis for their inherent structural qualities. He also shows how an in-depth understanding of these materials\' intrinsic strengths--and weaknesses--guides our engineering choices, allowing us to build the structures that support our society. This work is an enduring example of first-rate scientific communication. Philip Ball\'s introduction describes Gordon\'s career and the impact of his innovations in materials research, while also discussing how the field has evolved since Gordon wrote this enduring example of first-rate scientific communication.
