Sinopse

In "Glossary of Geological and Other Scientific Terms Used in the Principles of Geology," Charles Lyell meticulously compiles and elucidates the terminology that underpins his groundbreaking work in geology. This glossary serves as an essential companion to his seminal text, "Principles of Geology," providing clarity to complex scientific concepts grounded in empirical observation and reasoning. Lyell's literary style is characterized by precision and accessibility, making this glossary a vital resource for both experts and lay readers interested in the evolving discourse of geological science during the 19th century, particularly in the context of advancing theories about Earth's history and evolution. Charles Lyell, a British geologist regarded as one of the founders of modern geology, was profoundly influenced by the scientific dialogues of his time, including the debates surrounding the age of the Earth and the processes shaping its features. His rigorous studies included observations from diverse geological formations across Europe and North America, which informed his systematic approach to elucidating terminology, thus bridging the gap between technical language and wider public understanding. This glossary is highly recommended for students, enthusiasts, and professionals seeking a deeper understanding of geological concepts and their historical significance. Lyell's commitment to clarity not only enhances comprehension but also enriches the reader's appreciation of geology as a discipline, making it an indispensable tool for anyone delving into the sciences.

    Welcome to a night of Deep Refreshing Sleep 
    This Audiobook gives you a bundle of two 12 hour programs. 
    The programs begin after a short narration of guided imagery to prepare you for sleep. 
    Program One: 12 hours of the sounds of a Mountain Stream and the Soothing Tones of Calming Classical Music. 
    Program Two: 12 hours of just the sounds of a Mountain Stream without the classical music. 
    The musical tones are serene arrangements of the most-loved, composers: Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Debussy, Mozart, Pachelbel, Rachmaninoff, Tchaikovsky and more. 
    The producer of the audiobook is an award-winning sound designer and composer. When he and his wife struggled with sleep apnea, he searched for an audio program that would help. "I mostly found cheap sound effects with repetitive, looping tones. Granted, my background makes me a little picky, but I found these programs more annoying than relaxing." 
    So he set out to record the best sounds he could find. The ocean waves, rain, thunder, streams and waterfalls are all original recordings. 
    Next, he experimented with tones. This program is the first to include arrangements of beautiful classical music. "I have produced over twenty experimental programs now and have had sleep doctors, patients, as well as my own friends and family members try them on. This current series of “Sleep Sounds" has been very well received and has been proven to be the most effective by the largest number of people."

    Dermatopathology - Skin Diseases...

    Dermatopathology is a specialized field of pathology that focuses on the study of skin diseases at a microscopic level. It serves as a bridge between dermatology and pathology, providing critical diagnostic insights into a wide range of cutaneous disorders. Understanding the fundamentals of dermatopathology requires knowledge of skin structure, histopathological techniques, and essential diagnostic tools such as immunohistochemistry. 
    The skin is the largest organ of the body, serving as a protective barrier against environmental insults, infections, and physical trauma. It consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue. The epidermis, primarily composed of keratinocytes, undergoes continuous renewal through a process called keratinization. The dermis provides structural support and houses blood vessels, nerves, and adnexal structures such as hair follicles, sebaceous glands, and sweat glands. The subcutaneous layer, rich in adipose tissue, functions as insulation and a cushion against mechanical forces. Recognizing the normal histological architecture of these layers is essential for identifying pathological alterations.

    A Little Cocaine to Loosen My...

    In the 1880s, Freud discovered cocaine and became enthusiastic about what was not yet considered a party drug. Favoring the use of cocaine in the treatment of neurasthenia, as an energizer, or as an anesthetic, Freud made a creative and fashionable use of it, heralding practices that our society knows well. Several surprising texts are gathered here on cocaine. Freud recounts the use of coca in history, particularly in South America, from where it was imported. In Cocaine Addiction and Cocaine Phobia, the inventor of psychoanalysis defended coca against its accusers as a dangerous product. Finally, in the letters to Martha Bernays, his future wife, we discover an intimate and loving Freud, telling how he escaped boring dinners thanks to his dear magic substance.
