Описание: Plant palaeoecologists use data from plant fossils and plant subfossils to reconstruct ecosystems of the past. This book deals with the study of subfossil plant material retrieved from archaeological excavations and cores dated to the Late Glacial and Holocene. One of the main objectives of this book is to describe the processes that underlie the formation of the archaeobotanical archive and the ultimate composition of the archaeobotanical records, being the data that are sampled and identified from this immense archive. Our understanding of these processes benefits from a knowledge of plant ecology and traditional agricultural practices and food processing. This handbook summarizes the basic ecological principles that relate to the reconstruction of former vegetations and of agricultural practices in particular. We hope this book will help palaeobotanists, environmental archaeologists, and colleagues from related disciplines optimize inferences based on what we could term old-style archaeobotany. And we hope that our observations will serve as an eye-opener and improve future research, not only as it is practised in our laboratories, but also as it is practised in the field.

When the alarm rings at 6 a.m., Lila doesn't want to get up and go to school. She feels like snuggling in bed. Maybe she's sick. Perhaps she could plead with her mom. She?d rather stay home and play with her toys. But dad insists Lilia must get ready for school.
Then she remembers a lesson she learned at school about how to bring happy thoughts into her head. Lila takes three mindful breaths. She thinks happy thoughts. She stretches, touches her toes, and hops on one foot. Lila is ready to face the day.
This picture book for children follows Lila as she learns to navigate the stresses of the morning using strategies she's learned about calming herself and with the help of her parents.

Описание: Rook is 'n gewoonte wat meestal deur kinders of tieners aangeleer word. Die voorbeelde van ouers, familie en rolmodelle wat rook moenie onderskat word nie. Dr Michail Eriksen s dat kinders begin rook omdat dit vir hulle 'n gevoel van vryheid gee en later kan hulle nie ophou nie. Die ironie is dat die nikotienverslawing juis vryheid en onafhanklikheid wegneem. Volgens 'n opname deur die Amerikaanse Kankervereniging geniet slegs 16% van rokers sigarette werklik. Om te dink dat jy 'n sigaret geniet, is 'n tragiese vorm van selfmisleiding. Die talle ellendes en siektes wat die roker dikwels vroe r, maar beslis later tref, word beskryf in hoofstukke 4 tot 9. Maar eers word gekyk na die redes waarom mense rook, daarna word die chemiese samestelling van tabakrook ontleed en dan kyk ons na statistieke en tendense.
