Sinossi

In "Getting Gold: A Practical Treatise for Prospectors, Miners and Students," J. C. F. Johnson presents a comprehensive guide that marries practical instruction with a wealth of historical context, drawing upon the rich traditions of the 19th-century gold rush. The book features a clear, didactic style, filled with diagrams, and illustrations that serve to elucidate complex concepts of gold mining and prospecting. Johnson meticulously chronicles various extraction methods, the chemistry of gold and ores, and the geographical nuances critical for success, making it an essential resource in both academic and field settings. J. C. F. Johnson was an astute observer of the American socio-economic landscape during the gold rush era, a time marked by fervent adventurism and formidable industry. His extensive field experience as a miner and a scholar imbues his writing with authenticity and insight. Johnson recognized that the quest for gold was not merely an endeavor for wealth but a profound journey of knowledge, exploration, and survival, influenced by both scientific inquiry and the human spirit. I highly recommend "Getting Gold" to students of geology, enthusiasts of mining history, and practitioners in the field. Johnson's work transcends the mere how-to manuals; it serves as a crucial historical document that provides a window into the practical realities and dreams of those who sought fortune in the untamed wilderness.

    Urban land markets are crucial to the development and expansion of cities, influencing everything from economic activity to social interactions and environmental sustainability. These markets function as the mechanism through which land is bought, sold, and leased, determining how space within urban areas is utilized. Understanding urban land markets involves exploring how land use is shaped by the interplay of demand, supply, policies, and market dynamics. This chapter delves into the foundational concepts of urban land markets, their historical development, and their significance in modern urban planning. 
    The historical context of urban land markets is essential to understanding their current structure and function. In the early stages of urbanization, land was primarily a commodity for agriculture, with little concern for the complexities of modern urban needs. As cities began to grow during the industrial revolution, urban land markets evolved to accommodate increasing populations and the demand for residential, commercial, and industrial spaces. The shift from agricultural use to urban development created new challenges in managing land distribution and urban expansion. Over time, urban land markets have adapted to accommodate the changing needs of societies, from the rise of real estate development to the creation of zoning laws aimed at regulating land use. 
    Urban land markets play a significant role in shaping the growth of cities, impacting everything from infrastructure development to housing affordability. Land is a finite resource, and the decisions made within urban land markets can either promote or hinder the expansion of urban spaces. The dynamics of these markets are influenced by several factors, including population growth, economic conditions, government policies, and technological advancements.

    This is the dramatic and inspirational first-person story of theoretical physicist, Dr. Ronald Mallett, who recently discovered the basic equations for a working time machine that he believes can be used as a transport vehicle to the past. Combining elements of Rocket Boys and Elegant Universe, Time Traveler follows Mallett's discovery of Einstein's work on space-time, his study of Godel's work on a solution of Einstein's equation that might allow for time travel, and his own research in theoretical physics spanning thirty years that culminated in his recent discovery of the effects of circulating laser light and its application to time travel. The foundation for Mallett's historic time-travel work is Einstein's theory of general relativity, a sound platform for any physicist. Through his years of reading and studying Einstein, Mallett became a buff well before he had any notion of the importance of the grand old relativist's theories to his own career. One interesting subtext to the story is Mallett's identification with, and keen interest in, Einstein. Mallett provides easy-to-understand explanations of the famous physicist's seminal work.
