In the Defense of This Flag: The Civil War Diary of Pvt. Ormond Hupp, 5th Indiana Light Artillery

Book Description

Beginning with the discovery of genes on chromosomes and culminating with the unmasking of the most minute genetic mysteries, the twentieth century saw astounding and unprecedented progress in the science of biology. In an illustrious career that spanned most of the century, biologist John Bonner witnessed many of these advances firsthand. Part autobiography, part history of the extraordinary transformation of biology in his time, Bonner's book is truly a life in science, the story of what it is to be a biologist observing the unfolding of the intricacies of life itself.

Bonner's scientific interests are nearly as varied as the concerns of biology, ranging from animal culture to evolution, from life cycles to the development of slime molds. And the extraordinary cast of characters he introduces is equally diverse, among them Julian Huxley, J. B. S. Haldane, Leon Trotsky, and Evelyn Waugh. Writing with a charm and freshness that bring the most subtle nuances of science to life, he pursues these interests through the hundred years that gave us the discovery of embryonic induction; the interpretation of evolution in terms of changes in gene frequency in a population; growth in understanding of the biochemistry of the cell; the beginning of molecular genetics; remarkable insights into animal behavior; the emergence of sociobiology; and the simplification of ecological and evolutionary principles by means of mathematical models. In this panoramic view, we see both the sweep of world events and scientific progress and the animating details, the personal observations and experiences, of a career conducted in their midst.

In Bonner's view, biology is essentially the study of life cycles. His book, marking the cycles of a life in biology, is a fitting reflection of this study, with its infinite, and infinitesimal, permutations.

science in a fortunate era.......2002-08-19

John Tyler Bonner's career as a biologist spans an incredible era of ever-accelerating advances and complexity in science. Divided into chapters covering two decades each, his account mixes personal memoir with the story of his research. He specialized in slime molds, although his interest roamed throughout all biological disciplines.

Young scientists reading Bonner's book will both smile and grimace. His account of his reports fifty years ago to the NSF regarding his grant will surely produce both reactions at the same time: "Things have not worked out well. I have tried this, that, and the other, and nothing has really worked." The reply was, "Don't worry about it---this is the way research goes sometimes. Maybe next year you will have better luck." My husband, a cloud physicist for over twenty-five years, is utterly astonished at such an exchange.

Bonner writes clearly and sometimes jokily, in true scientific fashion, without much color and brio to hold a reader's interest. Nevertheless he has lived in a fascinating time, has seen the germination and flowering of many ideas that have revolutionized biology, and for this reason alone his book is worth reading.

A Gentle Memoir of a Lifelong Passion.......2002-06-26

John Tyler Bonner's lifelong passion with slime molds makes for more interesting and delightful reading than one would at first expect in Lives of a Biologist (Adventures in a Century of Extraordinary Science). His life story includes many wonderful anecdotes that go beyond the world of science and include such a unusual assembly of characters as Trotsky, Harpo Marx and Evelyn Waugh. The joy of this book, though, is the biological experiences and this will be a pleasure regardless of one's level of biological background. The excitement of discovery and learning comes through clearly in these pages and the amazing transitions in this field over the past century are presented in a readable and fascinating manner. This is a light, friendly read and a gentle glimpse into the sometimes cloudy world of biological research.

I started using this log book and everything made total sense. It was easy to use and very helpful. However, I received Bodylink from Timex as a gift which basically replaced this book.
If you have about $300 to spend get the Bodylink system with heart rate monitor, data logger and GPS+speed+distance and you would have everything you need.

tri prep.......2006-11-10

I bought this journal hoping to have a great place to record my workouts. That is not what I got. The space is limited, and I feel like I need to take a class in journaling the Joe Friel way. I only bought this journal, because I had read one of books and loved it. I quit trying to use this journal and went back to my old fashion way of using a regular journal.

Revised Edition is useless.......2004-08-29

A diary is supposed to allow me to record my personal information. By adding the irrelevant photos and so-called motivational quotes, they have reduced the space for my personal information even further.

I used the first edition for four years. At least I was generally able to squeeze in the essentials of my workouts. However, the new edition has less space available for each day, and still only room for two workouts. The space for each workout is much less than adequate, and forget ever trying to squeeze in a record of more than two on any day.

Do you ever workout more than twice a day? Then, skip this product!

Good diary, cannot write on flap!!.......2003-10-26

I am a new multi-sport athlete who LOVES to collect data. This diary is perfect; it doesn't provide tons of space for each day, which forces me to think about what I really want to include. My main complaint - it has an outside flap, on which you are to write your goals and objectives. I have tried many different pens and cannot get any to write on the foolish thing, so I have HALF of each of my goals and objectives on the flap and then they trail off to nothing. Less than motivational!

Besides that, though, the diary is very nice. I already have Friel's Triathlon Bible, though - without it, I would be pretty much lost. He DOES give brief explanations of how to plan a season in the diary, but not much more than that.

OK, but used to be better.......2003-03-01

I've been using the Inside Triathlon journal for 4 or 5 years, and have been pleased with it. The most recent edition, however, has a new format that I just don't like. The editors stuck goofy pictures at the top of each page, and took space away from the notes section. There is now hardly enough room to even describe my route, let alone describe the workout in any meaningful way. I am so disappointed that I doubt I'll buy this journal again.

This Series is Great.......2006-02-20

BLB's Mini Blts, the one recipe I've tried from this book, is a great hors d'oeuvres. I am intending to try Pomegranate-braised Brisket with Onion Confit at the earliest appropriate opportunity. As an earlier reviewer noted, this collection is fun and useful because it is compiled from so many different sources. Sophistication is here. Earthy simplicity is here. Funky quirkiness is here. Ethnic diversity is here. Buying the current edition of this series every year is an efficient and economical way of updating my culinary skills.

Great Series.......2004-09-08

This review is of "Best American Recipes 2003-2004." I write this because sometimes a review of a different year gets mixed in by Amazon.

Fran McCullough is a longtime cookbook editor with an eye for the tasty recipe and a spot-on reliable palate. How lucky for me to have her reading thousands of recipes a year and testing them so I don't have to.

B. Marold's bizarre review prompted me to write this. First, the boring rebuttal: It is clear Mr/Ms Marold didn't actually cook anything from the book before reviewing it. His/her comments are generally petty and besides the point. No, I don't use Rachel Ray as my ultimate food authority. The American food scene is made up of chefs, cooks, writers, journalists, critics, purveyors and the public. Not just a couple of publications and the Food Network. Actually, some of the better food shows never sold out and stayed on PBS. Yes, it was a bit depressing to see convenience foods listed as a food trend, but I have no basis with which to argue with Fran on that one. No, I don't expect every cookbook writer to work in the style of the Cook's Illustrated staff. (I adore Cook's Illustrated, but it has its limitations. If you're a very experienced cook, you'll see that each author might skip options you could think of in the Cook's Illustrated series). Yes, there is no dust jacket this year, and sodium in solution and used as a preservative always has a partner, like tripolyphosphate. Who cares, as long as you know not to buy the scallops with "sodium something"?

Back to the point:

McCullough has an impeccable palate, and once again this year she scours the country for wonderful recipes and finds them. Printing things that were just re-published from old favorites happens in most editions of this series, and is O.K. with me because Fran does it sparingly, and always for a reason. Besides, sometimes the author is Elizabeth David, or one of the other greats, and it reminds me to re-open the original book.

The recipe descriptions are accurate as always, and the cook's notes are very insightful.

Once again this year, a great book in an outstanding series. These Fran McCullough books are so reliable, she is becoming like an old friend (if only in print). So:

Fran, if you're listening, I vote you keep on doing these! And while you're at it, please bring back the suggested menus with each recipe, and make a multi-year index!! I know you put your whole Thanksgiving dinner in here. Don't leave it to me to figure it out!!! If you need Hamlin to do the menus, then bring her back! The dust jacket and high grade paper was more stylish, so you might push back on your publisher for that, too.

Cheers!

Fun series with good recipes and lots of annoying aspects.......2004-03-08

This latest in a series which I believes goes back about five (5) years breaks no new ground in presentation or insights about the American culinary scene. All that means is that this book is fun to read and may be worth a purchase from the deeply discounted pile of books at the entrance of Borders. But, it adds little of substance to one's permanent cookbook library.

At the top of my list of reasons not to pay list price for this book is the fact that it gives no criteria by which the editors choose their best of winners. You have nothing like the closely reasoned thinking you get from the Cooks Illustrated magazines or books. You do not even get any rationale for how sources are chosen. On top of this is the very few recipes from Cooks Illustrated or other `best of' sources.

Next on my list of complaints is that when a recipe comes from a periodical, the editors do not give enough information about the source which would enable you to find that particular issue. This may be useful especially for recipes from Savour or Gourmet, where recipes often accompany articles on countries or restaurants and you may be interested in reading about the recipe's source.

Another irritation is that all the copyrighted sources show that they were published in 2002, not 2003. This irritation is doubled when I find recipes from republished material, such as new editions of works by M. F. K. Fisher or memoirs including old material such as `Between Bites' by Jim Villas. I really like both authors and I think they deserve every credit coming their way, but I already own their works, so I don't need to see their old material rehashed here.

Yet another irritation is in the Foreword by guest contributor Alan Richman. Like Tony Bourdain before him, he was primarily enlisted to provide some opening comic relief. The problem is, at least some of his humor is based on plainly false observations such as a mythical difficulty in finding shallots at an American grocery. Unlike the author, I find shallots at every store stocking vegetables in my middle-sized city. Bring back Tony Bourdain. At least I know where his cynical sense of humor is coming from.

I always look forward to some insights from the editors' trends of the year. This year, I flatly disagree with their identifying a movement toward can opener cooking exemplified by Sandra Lee's `Semi-Homemade' rubric. I think that with the recent popularity of Rachael Ray's books and TV show, I would more likely identify the trend as a strong interest in cooking at home and the search for ways to do it quickly without having to rely too heavily on prepared foods. The observation about Sandra Lee is doubly ironic in that her Food Network TV show started in 2003, and, as cited above, all the recipes presumably reflecting this trend are from 2002.

The last annoyance with which to burden you are my finding inaccurate statements in the editors' notes to some recipes. One I found was the statement that scallops are stored in solutions of sodium to preserve them. Sodium cannot form a solution. Only sodium salts can form a solution, and, I believe the salt used to preserve scallops is not the most common sodium salt, sodium chloride, but some less common compound.

In spite of all these nuisances, this book is fun to read, if not worth the expense to own it. If I were to fall back on a quote from Joseph Conrad, which says that the sole purpose of a cookbook is to increase the amount of happiness in the world, I believe this book can do that, especially if acquired at a deep discount or from the library.

In the books defense, I cite with favor the editors' notes accompanying each recipe. This levels the quality of the entries, balancing sophisticated stuff from Jeremiah Tower with material found on the back of a bread crumb can.

Recommended, with reservations.

Use it all the time.......2004-01-24

This series is the absolute best. I have them all. Recipes are reasonably easy, creative, and meal menu suggestions are a big help. For those cooks who need pictures to tell them what the heck they are eating, this probably isn't for you. But if you are into any sort of forward meal menu planning, then pick this and the other years' editions up. An experienced palate also helps so that room temperature dishes are not a shock, but a style to which the Italians and French have become accustomed.

Great series - terrific selections!.......2003-12-21

Fran McCullough is well known in the food bood business and I've come to trust her taste. I'm automatically favorably inclined towards any book she's associated with.

This series started out strong and has only gotten better over the years. I love the editors comments in the headnotes and they are great at discerning trends.

Also there are lots of really simple but very tasty dishes here, along with a few real challenges.

About half of this 64-page book is actual training advice. The other half consists of filler in the form of pretty dog pictures. For $1 more you can get Shirlee Kalstone's "How to Housebreak Your Dog in Seven Days" -- 70 pages of training advice (similar to Kelly's) plus background not in Kelly's book that will be useful to many readers.

Highly Recommendable!.......2000-04-27

I recently bought a Jack Russell Terrier, and anybody that owns one knows why I needed this book. My puppy is very fiesty and head-strong, which means he was not easy to train. I didn't know where to turn and almost thought about selling him because he was too much to handle. I finally decided I would send him to obedience school, but in the mean time I would buy a book to perhaps teach myself a little something about housebreaking new puppies. I browsed through numerous books, many sounding too much alike, which made it all the more difficult to decide. When I came to this book, after breezing through several pages, I realized this was the book for me. Easy to understand, and the illustrations helped out a whole bunch. I immediately started using the many tips they offered and within days started to see a change in my puppy. I couldn't believe it! The book is not real long, which is great for those of us that work. It's easy to read and comprehend and apply to any situation. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, easy-to-read book loaded with great tips!

Now I only write hit songs.......2007-07-31

Well, at least in my opinion.

I just received the book last night and have read about 1/4 of it. It's great so far, lot's of insight and information. After reading some of Mr. Braheny's info on his web site [...] I couldn't wait to get his book. It's more than I expected, including actual music theory but as it relates to hit songs, not just raw theory. Cool!

I'll write more after reading the entire book, but this is the best thing I've done for myself regarding song writing.

BTW, I also got Pat Pattison's book on lyric writing and barely looked at it - I don't think I'll care for it if I ever get around to reading it. I used to read Pattison's column in Home & Studio Recording mag, although I didn't recall it at the time I purchased his book, and I never cared for his column back then (in the '80s and '90s) either. Braheny's book is MUCH better - no comparison really.

Reviewing The Craft and Business .......2007-07-28

"The Craft and Business of Songwriting" has been instrumental in boosting my songwriting career by leaps and bounds. Even though I consider myself an "experienced" songwriter, there are so many things that "The Craft and Business of Songwriting" keeps me reminded and aware of. This book does that and more! It also helps me look at songwriting from a different and somewhat fresh perspective. I truly appreciate the insight on usage of the internet's many resources for marketing and promoting songwriting, which gives songwriters a perspective of the internet and web-based options to explore in helping to grow the songwriter's opportunities in cyberspace.

When it comes to songwriting, The Craft and Business of Songwriting is my bible.
