Microbial Mediation of Plant-Herbivore Interactions

Book Description

Novel Aspects of Insect-Plant Interactions Edited by Pedro Barbosa and Deborah K. Letourneau Focusing on three trophic levels, this study widens the current understanding of the ecological interactions between plants, herbivores, and their parasitoids and predators. Emphasized are the mediating effects of plant-derived allelochemicals on those interactions. The book also covers microorganisms as mediators of intertrophic and intratrophic interactions; theory and mechanisms: plant effects via allelochemicals on the third trophic level; and key roles of plant allelochemicals in survival strategies of herbivores. 1988 (0 471-83276-6) 362 pp. Plant-Animal Interactions Evolutionary Ecology in Tropical and Temperate Regions Edited by Peter W.

Book Description

Giant fiberglass wieners atop a hotdog stand. Wild green parrots that live in the city. A double-decker outhouse. A museum dedicated to surgical science. Statues that weep. Find out where these and other eclectic sites are located in Oddball Illinois, an offbeat travel guide that's a mix of Fodors and News of the Weird. There is more between Chicago and St. Louis than cornfields, and plenty of fascinating places in the Windy City that aren't on Michigan Avenue. Oddball Illinois won't point out the hottest club in Chicago, the quaintest small-town bed & breakfast, nor the most scenic hiking trail in Illinois. This book will, however, tell about the locations of America's One and Only Hippie Memorial, Scarlett O'Hara's green drapes, Popeye's Hometown, and several places the local Chambers of Commerce would just as soon be forgotten. Behind all the odd sights is some wonderfully interesting history and a chance to see some underappreciated sites throughout the state.

Stranges Places............2004-11-08

"Oddball Illinois," is a great guide to wacky and weird places around the state. Although there is a lot of places in Chicago, the book also talks about the burbs and Southern Illinois. I do wish that this book had more of the great photos that the other "Oddball," books have...otherwise this is a great book!

Fun Read.......2003-01-10

This book is so fun to read. If you live in Illinois, you will love finding out the very strange things that exist in the Land of Lincoln. I live in Chicago, and there is a VERY large section of this book that deals with Chicago and it's wierdness. From cemeteries to strange house decorations to wild birds living in a local park.........Illinois is so much more than I ever imagined....and I've lived here for over 25 years. Get this book and put it on your coffee table,you will find yourself picking it up over and over again.

Good for Chicago........2002-10-21

Even if you don't live in Illinois or plan to visit, the offbeat humor in this book makes it well worth reading. More than half the book is given over to Chicago and the burbs. For the location of many sites mentioned in the book, you'll see the original structures have been torn down. So while you may go to where the 1st skyscraper was constructed, you won't see it today.

The areas outside of Chicago are covered in much less detail. The author has included 3 maps covering northern, central, and southern Illinois to help with locating these more out of the way attractions.

The book has a somewhat disturbing bent towards scenes of violence and death. Cemeteries are covered in detail as are sites of various tragedies.

This book is so much fun!.......2001-10-05

Okay, here's the deal with this book- if you're like me and my friends and you drive around in search of adventure, this book is way awesome! "Oddball Illinois: A Guide to Some Really Strange Places" has tons of neato places to visit! Popeye's hometown, a broom museum and the sight of the Valentine's Day Massacre are only a few of the featured places. Some of the places are famous- The Museum of Science and Industry, and some are relatively unheard of- The Hindsdale Animal Cemetary. The greatest asset of this fine piece of literature is that it includes admission fees and visiting hours where applicable. And because it was written so recently, most of the info is very up-to-date. Jerome Pohlen is quite funny in his comments and makes this book a truly fun experiance.

SOME STUFF YOU MIGHT WANT TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE YOU EMBARK UPON ONE OF THESE ADVENTURES: An IL road map and internet directions can make finding some of the smaller towns much easier. Trust me on that one! Anyway, happy reading and enjoy some of those really stange places!

A thick slice of cheese.......2000-03-25

If you're into Ira Glass, P.J. O'Rourke, or David Sedaris, you'll get into the humor of this book. It's filled with places you don't normally find in a guidebook like the world's largest bottle of catsup, Hitler's bicycle, and a two-story outhouse with the author's recommendation to "take the one on top." Most of the places have accompanying photos so you can see if The Choo Choo Restaurant is really your cup o' tea and the Chicago section is especially strong. Everyone I've talked to says, "This guy should come to MY neck of the woods", proving that there is enough tackiness in this country to go around.

Book Description

"Sixteen years later Louis Riel would be
dressing himself again ... to be hanged by
his neck until he is at last, perfectly,
dead. 0 my God have mercy."

So begins Rudy Wiebe's powerful portrayal of Louis Riel, the mystic revolutionary of the Northwest, and Gabriel Dumont - "the savage" as he calls himself - the great buffalo hunter who becomes Riel's commander-in-chief.

With the same epic scope and inspired vision that he brought to The Temptations of Big Bear (winner of the Governor Generals Award for Fiction), Wiebe recreates an agonizing chapter in Canadian history which can never be forgotten - the explosive world of the North West Rebellions and the characters of the two men who led them.

Written with powerful clarity and compassion, The Scorched-Wood People is an immense achievement, a brilliant exploration of the faces of prophetic vision, the morality of politics and the nature of faith.

Book Description

The struggle of the Métis of the Saskatchewan River against the government of Canada culminated in the Riel Rebellion of 1885 - an event of central importance in shaping almost all of the key polarities of Canadian history. If Riel provided the intellectual inspiration for the Rebellion, it was (as George Woodcock's landmark study showed) Gabriel Dumont who provided its strategy, and arguably its soul. Dumont, a leading figure in the Métis society of hunters along the South Saskatchewan, had been president of the short-lived local government, and became "Adjutant General of the Métis people" when a Provisional Government was declared in 1885. After the defeat of the Rebellion by the Canadian militia Dumont lived for several years in the United States, and was for some time a performer in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. In his last years he returned to his old home near Batoche (site of the final defeat of the Métis forces in 1885), where he died in 1906.

Woodcock's biography of Dumont displays the author's remarkable gift for evocative narration and description. In the wake of its 1975 publication Canadians had a new reference point in the way they thought of the Riel Rebellion. Alongside the spirituality (and arguably the madness) of Riel was the calm determination of Dumont, whose intuitive feel for the land and for the moods of his people has now become part of the Canadian historical imagination.

Book Description

The troubles of 1885 are a topic of enduring fascination. Gabriel Dumont in Paris is a fictional retelling of the events leading up to the Northwest Rebellion, focussing on the thoughts and actions of Metis leader Gabriel Dumont. Jordan Zinovich reconstructs the man from a multiplicity of voices, leaving us to draw our own understanding of Riel's charismatic lieutenant.

Book Description

Floating on air currents over rural countryside and open city spaces, the Mississippi Kite presents a familiar sight to many people across the southern United States, although this graceful hawk is not well known by name. This engaging natural history, illustrated with superb color photographs, provides all a bird watcher needs to become acquainted with the kite, its life cycle, and its fascinating history with humans. Under various folk names, including Blue Darter, Grasshopper Hawk, and Mosquito Hawk, the Mississippi Kite ranges throughout the southern United States from the coasts of the Carolinas to the plains of the Southwest. The authors describe all aspects of the kite's life cycle, from breeding and nesting, raising young, and hunting and feeding to the kite's annual winter migration to South America. They also trace its intriguing relationship with humans, from its discovery by Europeans in the nineteenth century to the present day. For bird lovers and ornithologists alike, The Mississippi Kite will be an essential introduction to a bird well worth knowing. A special section on conservation and a selection of references for further reading complement the text.

A solid, easy-to-read resource for bird enthusiasts.......2005-08-01

An excellent, well-written, informative book that explains all about this wonderful little raptor without resorting to excessive and unapproachable scientific terminology. If you're interested in learning more about the Mississippi Kite than what's commonly available on web sites, then this is the book you want to buy.

Excellent resource for raptor rehabbers, falconers, and other bird watchers/enthusiasts.

Book Description

What if you set off on a vacation trip in search of history—and your destination was the men who had been president? Asking himself that tantalizing question, bestselling author Bob Greene embarked on a long journey across the nation, hoping to spend time with Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, George Bush and Ronald Reagan. The result of his odyssey is Fraternity.

This extraordinary book is rich with the sounds of the presidents’ own voices: from Nixon explaining the reasons for his solitary walks through New York City streets at 5:30 every morning to Carter recalling the sting of his family’s being mocked for their rural Southern heritage, even after he had won the White House. Dramatic, funny, surprising and unforgettable, Fraternity reveals the human side of men who made history, along with the dreams of a nation.

Book Description

“What if you set off on a vacation trip in search of history—and your destination was the men who had been president?”

Asking himself that tantalizing question, bestselling author and award-winning journalist Bob Greene embarked on a long journey across the breadth of the nation, hoping to spend time with Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, George Bush and Ronald Reagan. The result of his odyssey is Fraternity.

Rich with the sounds of the presidents’ own voices, Fraternity is dramatic, surprising, funny, revealing, inspiring, tragic, touching and unforgettable: a story destined to be read and enjoyed not just now, but far into the future as Americans think about who we are as a people.

Here is Nixon, in an unmarked office high above Manhattan, explaining the reason for his solitary walks through New York streets at 5:30 every morning. Here is Carter, riding in a Secret Service van, recalling the sting of his family’s being mocked for their rural Southern heritage, even after he had won the White House. Here is Ford, beside a golf course fairway, laughing at his startled discovery that of all his presidential papers, the one worth the most on the open market was a letter from a woman who tried to kill him. Here is Bush, on the road with his son, remembering his despair and anger at encountering a swastika carved into the sand behind an elegant resort on American soil. And here is Nancy Reagan, in a Beverly Hills hotel, on the haunting first night she must stand in for her husband after the announcement of his illness.

A travelogue of the national spirit that chronicles a quest stretching over fifteen years and starring the biggest names in the modern American saga, this is living history of the most human kind, and Bob Greene at his very best.

Intriguing Book about Commanders-in-Chief.......2006-03-08

Bob Greene has penned a very readable work about five past Presidents: Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan and Bush I. Instead of asking them the age old questions, he asks them things like: "what is your favorite movie?" and "do you shop for clothes like a normal person does?" I sensed he took them by surprise with many of his questions. You get to see a side of these men you have never seen. The saddest part of the book comes when he goes to interview Reagan right after he has made his Alzheimer's announcement.

What Bob Greene did on his summer vacation.......2004-12-09

It's not unusual for people to visit presidential libraries and museums or collect presidential memorabilia. There is even a surprising number of people who seek out presidential gravesites (and write books about it, like C-SPAN's Brian Lamb). But it's far rarer for someone to attempt to meet and spend time with former presidents themselves. This book is the story of Bob Greene's effort to collect the whole set.

As other reviewers have noted, this book is as much about Greene as it is about the living historical markers he sees the ex-presidents as having become. Americans have lived with president as Caesar, president as criminal, even retrospectively, president as demigod. Now we have president as tourist souvenir.

Back during the 1992 campaign, when that young woman asked then-candidate Clinton the famous "boxers or briefs" question, I remember thinking, "You have a chance to ask a likely future president a question, and that's the best you could do? Shame on you." I had something of the same reaction to this book. Greene explicitly set out to be non-political and non-confrontational, and if that's the direction he had to take to get in the door, than so be it. But it makes Greene's subjects -- whom, he argues, have fallen from exalted heights and are all mournfully cognizant of what they have lost -- seem even more banal to wind up sitting in their living rooms, offices, or hotels discussing sweaters or college football with Bob Greene. Only Jimmy Carter comes across as really *doing something* -- and consequently Greene in those chapters is reduced to part of the hyperkinetic Carter's entourage instead of being the sole object of hours of his subjects' attention, as he is in most of the rest of the book. (A great companion for this section, by the way, is Steven Hayward's "The Real Jimmy Carter" [Regnery, 2004].)

Greene comes to the realization that "you can be elected out of [the presidency], but ... apparently, in some ways, you can never really leave" (p. 182). This "Hotel California" existence is a sign of how much we invest in our presidents, emotionally, symbolically, and even spiritually. Even a man like Gerald Ford, who filled the office for little more than two years, is elevated -- apotheosized -- for all time. Greene suggests Ford's image may show up on a coin someday (Ford himself, entirely rightly, considers the idea laughable). To see how this process affects the men themselves, and to try to tease some insights into the men's personalities out of Greene's readable but not especially deep prose, is probably the best way to approach this book.

Baby Richard Nixon.......2004-12-08

Bob Greene was the laziest writer in Chicago. For years, he got away with writing column after column on these topics: Michael Jordan, the Beach Boys, how much better everything was when he was a teenager in Bexley, Ohio in 1964, Bob Evans, and the annoyance to end all annoyances, Baby Richard. Many of us were relieved when he was dismissed from his Tribune post for personal reasons.

Now Bob is back, with this sometimes interesting but mostly maddening volume about ex-Presidents of the United States. Any other writer would have told us more about these men and how they spend their post-Presidency careers and retirements. Not Bob! He spends the majority of the book discussing how the presidents interact with Bob and what each president means to Bob.

Thus, we see Richard Nixon as someone who repeatedly tells his secretary that he has more time for Bob. We see George Bush Sr. making a speech and referencing a conversation he had earlier in the day with Bob, and we hear how Bob feels about it. We get Bob's reaction to Gerald Ford. We get a pointless digression about Jack Nicklaus. We get Bob's visit to a Ronald Reagan Library dinner honoring Yitzhak Rabin. Finally, in the book's most self-indulgent moment, we find out that Nixon sent Bob's infant son an inscribed book. And through all this, Bob doesn't even bother to interview his generational peer, Bill Clinton. You'd think they could have traded memories of Beach Boys songs.

The few tidbits we can get about the presidents themselves are interesting - for example, Nixon had to take his daily walks at 5:30 AM because he would be mobbed otherwise, or Jimmy Carter trying to rest his hurt knee because he would be taking a group of inner-city Atlanta youths on a ski trip the next week, or Gerald Ford and his group of high school football friends who still get together. But ultimately, it's a Bob-fest suitable only for Bob's few fans who are left.

And in case you were wondering, Bob makes three separate references to Columbus (Bexley is a Columbus suburb) and Ohio State University, and mentions Michael Jordan once. You can't teach an old Bob new tricks!

Wonderful book.......2004-11-11

If it has one weakness, it is the same weakness as Greene's books about Michael Jordan. After a certain point, there is a feeling that you are hearing a man telling his innermost thoughts to famous people to see what they think about his thoughts. On the one hand, it's interesting. On the other, it's narcissitic. One wonders if this was a quest for information or validation. But you do come away with the feeling that it takes a common and uncommon man to become president. Only an uncommon person could have written this book.

Friendly, conversational and quick read with famous folks..........2004-11-09

Bob Greene's breezy, nostalgic journey to chat with 5 of our former Chief Executives is a great book to give as a gift, or to pleasantly pass the time in a single sitting. His enthusiasm and humor shine through in his chatty chapters with Nixon, Carter and Ford...all three statesmen come off as interesting, intelligent men (even Nixon with his always astounding idiosyncracies). With the elder Bush, however, Greene seems to have less to work with, so fills out the chapter with his own reflections on the man and his legacy. The final chapter, on Ronald Reagan, is certainly poignant as no interview was possible due to the onset of Alzheimer's Disease.

Greene is a great writer and I'd suggest a follow up on either the former First Ladies or the women of the Senate, entitled SORORITY.

Over 15 years ago, bestselling author and journalist Bob Greene decided to take vacation trips in search of history, an uncharted excursion to meet as many presidents of our country as possible. Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan (who the day before Greene was to meet him announced he has Alzheimer's, and so wasn't able to be interviewed) and George H.W. Bush invited Bob to various destinations across the country, sitting down to talk to him one-on-one. On the record, without press secretaries or handlers, these interviews are candid and surprising--each former president answering such questions as "what's it like to be the most powerful person in the world?"; "what is retirement like for someone who was one the most powerful man in the world?; "what's it like to be known by all but know by no one?" Part memoir, part history, part oral biography, this is a slice of pure Americana.
