A Mammal from the Oolitic Slate of Stonesfield

On the Affinities of the Stereognathus Ooliticus (Charlesworth)

First published in 1842, this vintage book contains part one of Charles Darwin's “The Zoology of The Voyage of H.M.S. Beagle”, a fascinating and detailed account of the research he did whilst aboard the HMS Beagle between 1832 and 1836—work that played a key role in the conception of his scientific theories on evolution and natural selection. This part concentrates on the fossils that he unearthed and studied from around the world, with descriptions and notes. Contents include: “Toxodon Platensis, Description of Cranium”, “Of Lower Jaw and Teeth”, “Macrauchenia Patachonica”, “Cervical Vertebrae”, “Lumbar Vertibrae”, “Scapula”, “Antibrachium and Fore-foot”, “Femur”, “Tibia, Astragalus, and Metatarsal Bone”, “Glossotherium”, etc. Charles Robert Darwin (1809 – 1882) was an English geologist, naturalist, and biologist most famous for his contributions to the science of evolution and his book “On the Origin of Species” (1859). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

An Essay on Owen's Position in Anatomical Science by the Right

The Life of Richard Owen by His Grandson the Rev. Richard Owen,...with the Scientific Portions

November 1925: In search of health and sun, the writer D. H. Lawrence arrives on the Italian Riviera with his wife, Frieda, and is exhilarated by the view of the sparkling Mediterranean from his rented villa, set amid olives and vines. But over the next six months, Frieda will be fatally attracted to their landlord, a dashing Italian army officer. This incident of infidelity influenced Lawrence to write two short stories, “Sun” and “The Virgin and the Gypsy,” in which women are drawn to earthy, muscular men, both of which prefigured his scandalous novel Lady Chatterley’s Lover. In DH Lawrence in Italy, Owen reconstructs the drama leading up to the creation of one of the most controversial novels of all time by drawing on the unpublished letters and diaries of Rina Secker, the Anglo-Italian wife of Lawrence’s publisher. In addition to telling the story of the origins of Lady Chatterley, DH Lawrence in Italy explores Lawrence’s passion for all things Italian, tracking his path to the Riviera from Lake Garda to Lerici, Abruzzo, Capri, Sicily, and Sardinia.

Science and innovation have the power to transform our lives andthe world we live in - for better or worse – in ways thatoften transcend borders and generations: from the innovation ofcomplex financial products that played such an important role inthe recent financial crisis to current proposals to intentionallyengineer our Earth’s climate. The promise of science andinnovation brings with it ethical dilemmas and impacts which areoften uncertain and unpredictable: it is often only once these haveemerged that we feel able to control them. How do we undertakescience and innovation responsibly under such conditions, towardsnot only socially acceptable, but socially desirable goals and in away that is democratic, equitable and sustainable? Responsibleinnovation challenges us all to think about our responsibilitiesfor the future, as scientists, innovators and citizens, and to actupon these. This book begins with a description of the current landscape ofinnovation and in subsequent chapters offers perspectives on theemerging concept of responsible innovation and its historicalfoundations, including key elements of a responsible innovationapproach and examples of practical implementation. Written in a constructive and accessible way, ResponsibleInnovation includes chapters on: Innovation and its management in the 21st century A vision and framework for responsible innovation Concepts of future-oriented responsibility as an underpinningphilosophy Values – sensitive design Key themes of anticipation, reflection, deliberation andresponsiveness Multi – level governance and regulation Perspectives on responsible innovation in finance, ICT,geoengineering and nanotechnology Essentially multidisciplinary in nature, this landmark textcombines research from the fields of science and technologystudies, philosophy, innovation governance, business studies andbeyond to address the question, “How do we ensure theresponsible emergence of science and innovation insociety?”
