Unfortunately people and tribes degenerate. They lose their teeth, forget their language, until finally they''re bending meekly on the fields and cutting straw with a scythe.Leemut, a young boy growing up in the forest, is content living with his hunter-gatherer family. But when incomprehensible outsiders arrive aboard ships and settle nearby, with an intriguing new religion, the forest begins to empty - people are moving to the village and breaking their backs tilling fields to make bread. Meanwhile, Leemut and the last forest-dwelling humans refuse to adapt: with bare-bottomed primates and their love of ancient traditions, promiscuous bears, and a single giant louse, they live in shacks, keep wolves, and speak to snakes.Told with moving and satirical prose, The Man Who Spoke Snakish is a fiercely imaginative allegory about a boy, and a nation, standing on the brink of dramatic change.

The adventures of Mr. Mocker is written by Thornton W. Burgess. To bring joy and gladness to the Green Meadows and the Green Forest, the Laughing Brook, and the Smiling Pool, Mistress Spring begins from far to the South. Winsome Bluebird goes just a little way ahead of her, for he is the herald of Mistress Spring. When all the other little people in feathers had flown to that faraway country, then did this friend of Ol' Mistah Buzzard make up his mind that he would go too. He didn't say anything about it to anyone, but he just started off by himself. Uncle Billy Possum and Mr. Mocker had a moonlight party in the Green Forest. When they heard about it, they became anxious to see the stranger with the wonderful voice. Peter Rabbit followed him around just to hear him fool others by making his voice sound like theirs. When he learned that some people believed Mr. Mocker had not obtained his voice honestly, Ol' Mistah Buzzard chuckled.

Understand the social, economic, and environmental impacts of the development of forest plantations—and the conservation involvedControversy surrounds the question of how to best protect forests of high conservation value, while meeting the growing demands for wood and wood fiber-based products. Plantations and Protected Areas in Sustainable Forestry presents the views of a diverse group of conservationists and natural resource professionals who examine important social and economic as well as ecological aspects of the debate. The goal of sustainable forest management is kept at the forefront of the discussions, while alternative strategies to meet economic and social needs are explored in light of the need to conserve biological diversity and protect other important ecological services and environmental values in key forest areas. For developed nations, there is an ethical responsibility to consider sensible development as well as environmental conservation. Plantations and Protected Areas in Sustainable Forestry discusses many of the prominent issues that are raised when considering intensively managed forests (plantations) and/or strict protection of high conservation value forests (protected areas) in the United States and elsewhere.

Twelve Voices from Greece and Rome is a book for all readers who want to know more about the literature that underpins Western civilization. Chistopher Pelling and Maria Wyke provide a vibrant and distinctive introduction to twelve of the greatest authors from ancient Greece and Rome, writers whose voices still resonate strongly across the centuries: Homer, Sappho, Herodotus, Euripides, Thucydides, Plato, Caesar, Cicero, Virgil, Horace, Juvenal and Tacitus. To what vital ideas do these authors give voice? And why are we so often drawn to what they say even in modern times? Twelve Voices investigates these tantalizing questions, showing how these great figures from classical antiquity still address some of our most fundamental concerns in the world today (of war and courage, dictatorship and democracy, empire, immigration, city life, art, madness, irrationality, and religious commitment), and express some of our most personal sentiments (about family and friendship, desire and separation, grief and happiness). These twelve classical voices can sound both compellingly familiar and startlingly alien to the twenty-first century reader. Yet they remain suggestive and inspiring, despite being rooted in their own times and places, and have profoundly affected the lives of those prepared to listen to them right up ...

''Fascinating, panoramic, wonderful'' Tom HollandA magical book which explores how the world was seen at twelve points in history, through twelve extraordinary maps and the minds of those who made themWhat you see depends on where - and when - you are looking from. As Jerry Brotton''s enthralling book shows, maps have shaped our view of the world throughout history, and are themselves shaped by the ideas, prejudices, systems of power and creativity of their age. Brotton examines twelve world maps from global history - from the mystical representations of ancient civilizations and the fourteenth-century Mappamundi to the satellite-derived imagery of today - to show how, by reading them, we can better understand the worlds that produced them. You will not look at a map in quite the same way again. ''The intellectual background to these images is conveyed with beguiling erudition ... maps prove to be less conveyors of information than theatrical performances ... There is nothing more subversive than a map'' Andrew Linklater, Spectator ''Fascinating and thought-provoking ... An achievement of evocation'' Anthony Sattin, Literary Review ''Elegant, powerfully argued'' David Horspool, Guardian, Books of the Year ''Rich and adventurous'' John Carey, Sunday Times ''A highly rewarding study ... ...
