The Privilege of a Lifetime

By: Lucille Olson

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Growing up in relative isolation in the ’40s, the author had the privilege of creating a lifetime of learning how to be true to herself. Her challenges, her struggles, and her eventual triumph over the roadblocks presented to her over the years, are presented as lessons to be learned. With great courage and honesty, she explores the hand she was dealt and the resulting effects it had on her. Character traits such as shyness, timidity, people pleasing, and lack of self-confidence fall to the wayside as growth-producing challenges are met, wrestled with, and overcome. Family secrets are exposed that lead to greater understanding and compassion for herself and others. Through her examples, the author offers hope and inspiration for overcoming whatever might be presented to others on their path toward fulfillment.

Ridin’ the Grub Line

By: Lucille M Jensen

Nineteen Twenty-four. Almost a century ago. What was it like on a dryland farm ranch? In this book, the author tells all about it from the view of someone who lived and survived it. Many didnt, and few are still living. My dad was a homesteader equivalent to todays custom combiners.

Eating Disorders in Contemporary French Women’s Writing

By: Lucille Cairns

Eating Disorders in Contemporary French Women’s Writing examines the most common types of Eating Disorders (EDs) - anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa/bulimarexia, and binge eating disorder - as represented in contemporary French women’s literature. The primary corpus comprises 40 autobiographical (and very occasionally autofictional) texts complemented by ample reference, and sometimes challenge, to clinical, medically-researched based, or theoretical publications on EDs.

Trace Elements in Man and Animals 6

By: Lucille S. Hurley,Carl L. Keen

This book is the published proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Trace Element Metabolism in Man and Animals. The Symposium was held at the Asilomar Conference Center in Pacific Grove, California, U.S.A. from May 31 through June 5, 1987. The decision to hold TEMA-6 at Asilomar was made at TEMA-5 in 1985. The International Guidance Committee decided to hold the meeting in California in part to recognize the significant cont~i butions made to the field of trace element metabolism by Professor Lucille S. Hurley. As such, she was the obvious choice as chair of the local organ izing committee. One of the principal goals of Professor Hurley was that TEMA-6 serve as a forum for discussing the use and application of newer methodologies, such as molecular biology, computer modelling and stable isotopes, in studies of trace element metabolism. Based on the comments which the local organizing committee has received, this goal was achieved. The Symposium was attended by 275 scientists from 32 countries covering 6 continents. Twenty-five speakers were chosen for our plenary sessions.

The Markey Scholars Conference

Proceedings

By: National Research Council,Policy and Global Affairs,Board on Higher Education and Workforce,Committee for the Evaluation of the Lucille P. Markey Programs in Biomedical Sciences

This is the second of five reports to emerge from the evaluation of the Markey Trust. As part of this assessment, the NRC hosted a scientific conference for Markey Scholars and Visiting Fellows in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico on June 28-30, 2002. The purpose of the conference was to enable the Scholars and Fellows to share their research experiences, just as they did at the annual Scholars Conferences previously conducted by the Markey Trust. All of the attending Scholars and Fellows submitted abstracts of their poster sessions. Six scholars, along with other experts in the biomedical sciences, made formal presentations. These proceedings consist of shortened versions of the individual presentations and the poster session abstracts.

You, Yes You, Can Teach Someone to Read

By: Lucille Tessier Chagnon

When Owl Man, leader of Planet Anasazi, is called by the Great Spirit to save Mother Earth from an asteroid, he must enlist other lost civilization leaders to help him. The plan involves relocating Earth's inhabitants to another planet, Earthalike, and restoring Earth to her original state, leaving only native inhabitants. The removal of miles and miles of concrete and the release of dammed rivers will correct the Earth's dangerous instability, allowing her to shift out of harm's way. But Owl Man faces many obstacles; strong opposition from the leaders of the Aztecs, Mayans, and Toltecs, distrust by his own brother, and rebellion by the nephew who will one day take his desired position of Ultimate Leader. As the asteroid streaks toward Earth, and with the destruction of the universe looming, Owl Man struggles to overcome his greatest obstacle of all: his own ambition and pride.

Brain Architecture : Understanding the Basic Plan

Understanding the Basic Plan

By: and Director NIBS Neuroscience Program University of Southern California Larry W. Swanson Milo Don and Lucille Appleman Professor of Biological Sciences

Depending on your point of view the brain is an organ, a machine, a biological computer, or simply the most important component of the nervous system. How does it work as a whole? What are its major parts and how are they interconnected to generate thinking, feelings, and behavior? This book surveys 2,500 years of scientific thinking about these profoundly important questions from the perspective of fundamental architectural principles, and then proposes a new model for the basic plan of neural systems organization based on an explosion of structural data emerging from the neuroanatomy revolution of the 1970's. The importance of a balance between theoretical and experimental morphology is stressed throughout the book. Great advances in understanding the brain's basic plan have come especially from two traditional lines of biological thought-- evolution and embryology, because each begins with the simple and progresses to the more complex. Understanding the organization of brain circuits, which contain thousands of links or pathways, is much more difficult. It is argued here that a four-system network model can explain the structure-function organization of the brain. Possible relationships between neural networks and gene networks revealed by the human genome project are explored in the final chapter. The book is written in clear and sparkling prose, and it is profusely illustrated. It is designed to be read by anyone with an interest in the basic organization of the brain, from neuroscience to philosophy to computer science to molecular biology. It is suitable for use in neuroscience core courses because it presents basic principles of the structure of the nervous system in a systematic way.
