Atlas of Photomicrographs of the Surface Structures of Lunar Regolith Particles

By: O.D. Rode,A. Cimbálniková,A.A. Ivanov,M.A. Nazarov,K. Jurek,V. Hejl

The rapid evolution of technology and mathematical methods in this century has led to the recognition and accumulation of a large quantity of scientific facts. At the same time, however, in studying natural bodies, primary attention has not been paid to their total character; the body either ceased to be an individual, as in the case of mathematical methods, or has become a complex of separate, not always closely connected characteristics examined by laboratory analyses. The goniometric study of a crystal, for example, has developed into the determination of constants of the crystal lattice, but the examination of minerals from a specific deposit was concerned primarily with the chemical analysis of their admixtures. In geological sciences a thorough morphological investigation has preserved its original importance, particularly in geomorphology and paleontology. Even in petrography, the three-dimensional description of rocks was replaced by the study of thin sections, since the optical microscope does not permit examination of an uneven surface as a result of a restricted depth of observation field. The art of ancient naturalists of conceiving the object in its entirety, with all its particularities, has not developed with time, as would have been desirable.

What Am I Doing Here?

True Adventures While Surviving 1172 Days in the U.S. Army During WW-II

By: Leroy R. Maleck O.D.,LeRoy R. Maleck

WHAT AM I DOING HERE? by Dr. LeRoy Maleck O.D. is Book III and potentially the most moving of his life experiences. This book contains the recollections of that time in life when a 22 year old army combat infantry medic was forced to rapidly mature and change forever. The author's first person style and account clearly comes from being there. This book chronicles his entry into the army as seen by a new recruit. The true account continues through basic training, continued training and the introduction to army life and situations that seem as a satire and have humorous moments. Follow his journey with the 137th Infantry Regiment, aboard a troop ship to England. Then in early July, D Day + 28 Days, his Regiment is on Omaha Beach. Roughly 11 days later he, with his unit is engaged in something his training could not prepare him for, combat with a determined, entrenched enemy. Follow the exploits of war through the eyes of a combat infantry medic who went through, survived, and helped others survive. of some of the most brutal battles faced by the U.S. Army in World War II, Including the Northern France Campaign and the Battle of the Bulge. In addition to an army combat medic's first person account of his participation in World War II, the author has included a sorry about a rather amazing four legged friend, Speed. Speed was his Uncle Bill's dog, companion, and often hunting partner. In contrast to the War chronicles you may find this amazing heartwarming and just a great sorry about a truly amazing dog.

Executive Thinking

From Brightness to Brilliance

By: Kevin Baize OD,Morris Graham PhD

Life is about how much we think. Thinking is about how much mental capacity we possess. Capacity, in addition to our abilities and conscientiousness, is about how much we can process combinations of verbal height, quantitative width, and spatial depth with decisiveness, direction, and speed. No matter where we go or what we do as executives, we take our thinking with us. That may spoil everything, because, to a great extent, we do and accomplish what we think about. Our thoughts mold our aspirations, attitudes and accomplishments during our life. In other words, our careers and lives are influenced more by the power of our thoughts than anything else. The bad news is that most of us never fully use our mental capacities and never achieve our potential. The good news is that neural technologies are now available to transform our thinking into the higher realms of brilliance. Developing the spatial capacity to think higher, wider, and deeper means breaking away from the effects of years of flat thinking or educational backgrounds that stifles creative/innovative potential. Expand your mental agility through a development of higher-order processes and discover a whole new world mentally in Executive Thinking.

The Finger Lakes Region

Its Origin and Nature

By: O. D. von Engeln

The extraordinary beauty of the Finger Lakes region is well known to its residents and to the many tourists who explore it each year. What is not so well known is the region's unique geology. Its distinctive features are the results of a singular combination of structural units and forces that operated thousands of years ago, when successive advances of the Ice Age continental glaciers thrust their fronts against escarpments extending across their path and into pre-glacial valleys. How these escarpments affected the flow of ice and how the glacial invasions remodeled the entire region is the subject of O. D. von Engeln's classic study.Following a brief prologue on the region's pre-glacial history, the author discusses each of the region's characteristic features: what caused it, its nature, its relation to other phenomena of the region and, often, to other distinctive topographic phenomena throughout the world. His book is a valuable and accessible introduction to the region's geologic history and provides insights into geologic methodology--how a region gives evidence of its history, what possible explanations for a phenomenon exist for geologists, and how they choose among them.Natives of the Finger Lakes, newcomers, and tourists alike will finish this book with a greater appreciation of this geologically fascinating area and with renewed curiosity about the formative years of our planet.
