About 30 elements are required by biological systems, including iodine and many metals, though most of these are needed in only tr…

It is a basic premise of the Wind and Beyond series that nothing about the historical development of aircraft has ever been linear. On the way to aeronautical “progress”—however one chooses to define the term—there has always been, and always will be, countless twists and turns. And in the end, the entire story could have turned out differently—and still may. It is hoped that not only…
The first two volumes in the Wind and Beyond series and the succeeding four now in preparation all cover the impact of aerodynamic development on the evolution of the airplane in America. As the six-volume series will ultimately demonstrate, just as the airplane is a defining technology of the twentieth century, aerodynamics has been the defining element of the airplane.The forthcoming volumes …
The airplane ranks as one of history’s most ingenious and phenomenal inventions. It has surely been one of the most world-changing. How ideas about aerodynamics first came together and how the science and technology evolved to forge the airplane into the revolutionary machine that it became is the epic story told in this multivolume work, The Wind and Beyond: A Documentary Journey into the Hi…

Marketing involves more than just activities performed by a group of people in a defined area or department. In the often quoted words of David Packard, cofounder of Hewlett-Packard, “Marketing is too important to be left only to the marketing department.” Marketing entails processes that focus on delivering value and benefits to customers, not just selling goods, services, and/or ideas.

Some few naturalists, on the other hand, have believed that species undergo modification, and that the existing forms of life ar…

The historian works with documents. Documents are the traces which have been left by the thoughts and actions of men of former times. Of these thoughts and actions, however, very few leave any visible traces, and these traces, when there are any, are seldom durable; an accident is enough to efface them. Now every thought and every action that has left no visible traces, or none but what have si…

Contemporary British parasitologist Frank Cox has explored how the question of what parasitology is has shaped the history of the discipline.

The process of diagnosing a plant health problem without any specialised laboratory equipment is called ‘field diagnosis’. Field diagnosis involves careful observation of the symptoms on a plant and linking those symptoms with possible causes. While some plant health problems are relatively easy to diagnose, others can be very difficult for a number of reasons. For instance, there may be mu…
Once upon a time in midwinter, when the snowflakes were falling like feathers from heaven, a queen sat sewing at her window, which had a frame of black ebony wood.

Here are not many people--and as it is desirable that a storyteller and a story-reader should establish a mutual understanding as soon as possible, I beg it to be noticed that I confine this observation neither to young people nor to little people, but extend it to all conditions of people: little and big, young and old: yet growing up, or already growing down again--there are not, I say, …
Green, by one highwayman, who despoiled the illustrious creature in sight of all his retinue; prisoners in London gaols fought battles with their turnkeys, and the majesty of the law fired blunderbusses in among them, loaded with rounds of shot and ball; thieves snipped off diamond crosses from the necks of noble lords at Court drawing-rooms; musketeers went into St. Giles's, to search for cont…

Did you catch his name?" "A foreigner of some sort!" replied Mrs. Robson, with smug sufficiency. For a moment the elder woman's sneer dulled the edge of Claire's anticipations, but pr…

The register of his burial was signed by the clergyman, the clerk, …
