Explore the Eastern philosophy-inspired garden design principles that inform the work of landscape architect Martin Mosko.

This book is a resource for those who want to create a contemplative garden or to better understand what it is to follow a contemplative path. Mosko's work incorporates principles of Oriental and Western garden design to make bold and original statements in his landscapes. Mosko explains how to deploy the materials of the garden so that their arrangement reflects the contemplative mind. The chief paradigm he uses is the mandala, a symbolic picture of the ideal world used in some form in many of the world's cultures. Rocks, streams, plants, paths, and structures of the garden each take their place in the mandala as one of its five elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space. The means to produce a balance of these elements is the mind conditioned by meditation and a clear understanding of its own nature. Inner harmony is expressed as outer beauty.
Mosko's approach to landscaping transforms space into spirit, infused with magic. It can be used to create anything from a small courtyard to a country estate, in any environment from the city to the suburbs. After explaining theory and method, the book leads us into five of Mosko's gardens, each alive with the energy and excitement he brings to his designs. Although located in different parts of the country and created in different styles, each garden is a reflection of the mind of clarity and calm.

Seismic Data Analysis Techniques in Hydrocarbon Exploration explains the fundamental concepts and skills used to acquire seismic data in the oil industry and the step-by-step techniques use to extract the subsurface geological sections that trap hydrocarbons. It enhances the ability to interpret seismic data and use that data for basin evaluation, structural modeling of a fault, reservoir characterization, rock physics analysis, field development, and production studies.

Understanding and interpreting seismic data is critical to oil and gas exploration companies. Arming young geoscientists with a reference that covers the key principles of seismic data analysis will enhance their job knowledge, skills and performance. A fundamental grasp of seismic data enhances employability and aids scientists in functioning effectively when working with seismic data in industry

• Edited by a team of petroleum geoscientists with more than 30 years of experience in hydrocarbon exploration and data analysis at O&G companies.
• More than 200 figures, photographs, and illustrations aid in the understanding of the fundamental concepts and techniques used to acquire seismic data
• Takes an easy-to-follow, step-by-step approach to presenting the techniques and skills used to extract the geologic sections from acquired seismic data.
• Enhances the geoscientist’s effectiveness when using seismic data for field development and other exploration and production studies

Terrifying and thought-provoking tales of horror complete this second anthology of chilling graphic fiction stories. Featuring writing and illustrations by some of the freshest talents in Spanish comics, the collection includes such figures as José Avilés, Bart Torres, Santi Pérez, Ángel Rodriguez, Álex Ogalla, and Salvador López—each of whom find their inspiration from H. P. Lovecraft and his famed Cthulhu Mythos.

Positing that modern society is an adolescent culture, driven by greed and power and lying on the cusp of an era of spiritual growth and shifting values, this book explores mythic themes in various historical eras to explain the past, present, and future of the human experience. It suggests that the world is facing a rite of passage into adulthood and that a time of cooperation, stabilization, and sharing is approaching. With an original theory of history based on developmental psychology, including an analysis of masculine and feminine archetypes, this thoughtful guide weaves the narratives of human history and individuals' experiences into a path of enlightenment and a way to catalyze social change.

The Shape of Algebra is the authors' attempt to share their mathematical experiences with readers who have more than a passing interest in mathematics, but have only a traditional exposure to elementary algebra. Secondary school and college teachers and students who want to expand their horizons in the field will find a fresh presentation of familiar concepts and some unexpected results.This book serves as a text for an “appreciation” course in modern mathematics designed for non-mathematics majors or for first-year students who are considering the possibility of studying mathematics or related disciplines. It can also serve as a source of computer-supported activities that could supplement traditional courses in algebra, multivariable calculus, and complex variable.This book gives the reader a sense of the visual nature of mathematics. Mathematical experiments with universal mapping software VisuMatica, designed by Vladimir Nodel'man, form the very core of the book. Readers are encouraged to reproduce, play with, and expand on these experiments. Numerous problems are interspersed throughout the text to guide the reader.Our treatment of standard algebra is visual and computational. By introducing visual computational environments like VisuMatica, our book promotes this geometric approach to algebra and makes it accessible to readers a great deal earlier.The book will enable our readers to approach its content on three levels: the first one which requires only some fluency with elementary algebraic manipulations; the second one which also presumes familiarity with the notions of derivatives and tangent lines to plane curves, and the third one which uses some basic concepts of multivariable calculus. All three levels are clearly marked in the text, and will allow for a smooth reading and virtual experiments, regardless of the level that our readers will find comfortable.

Noden, a veteran middle school English teacher, describes an original approach to teaching grammar, called image grammar. The approach involves students studying and imitating the work of various masters, posting their written passages, and sharing insights from reading in small-group discussion and individual conferences. Each chapter consists of lessons to teach students concepts and strategies for further classroom activities. The CD-ROM contains teaching strategies, rubrics, reproducible handouts for in-class activities, images and quotes to project for in-class writing, and web links. This second edition contains new material on grammatical chunks, expanded discussion of the five basic 'brush strokes,' a presentation of the nonfiction model, and a new visual aid called the character wheel to help students write both nonfiction and fiction character sketches.

Alla morte del nonno, Hanna riceve in eredità due chiavi misteriose. Una di queste serve per aprire la porta dei sotterranei, dove il nonno le ha sempre proibito di entrare. L'altra serve per risvegliare Will, la 'bambola elementale'. Una bambola legata a doppio filo a Hanna, eternamente sua. Una bambola che ha ricevuto il dono della vita.

La bambola di Hanna giace a Terra, priva di vita. C'è un solo modo per ridarle l'anima perduta: costruire una nuova bambola elementale che funga da 'contenitore'. Hanna chiede aiuto a Gloria per avere la chiave di Gill: ad attenderla, non trova però una persona disposta a concederle il suo aiuto, ma... la morte?
