  Wild Waters - The Magic of...

  'I often sit by the bank of the small river that flows through our farm in County Wicklow, fascinated by its many moods ... Getting to know a river is like reading the story of a person's life ...  from its young energetic stages in the hills to the slower-moving mature river, through to the tranquil water of lakes and finally to its resting place in the sea.'
  Richard Nairn is an ecologist who has been visiting waterways around Ireland for over half a century, fascinated by how they sustain and enrich our lives. Here he sets out on a year-long adventure to explore every stretch and tributary of the Avonmore River, which runs through Co. Wicklow. From source to sea, he immerses himself in the wildlife, archaeology, history and people connected to the river. Travelling to explore more of Ireland's rivers, lakes, wet woodlands, ponds and canals, Richard details encounters with dragonflies, crayfish, otters and great flocks of migratory waterbirds, and finds himself awestruck by the sense of a lost wilderness they convey.
  With our waterways now under serious threat, this is a love letter to Ireland's rivers and lakes, and a reminder of what we stand to lose.
  'Opens the window into a watery world. Personal yet panoramic.' Colin Stafford-Johnson, filmmaker.

  Early Chinese Dynasties - The...

  In the fertile valleys along the Yellow and Yangtze Rivers, where mist clings to rugged mountains and flows through ancient bamboo forests, the foundations of one of humanity's most enduring civilizations were laid thousands of years ago. "Early Chinese Dynasties: The Dawn of Chinese Civilization" invites readers on a captivating journey through three formative dynasties that shaped the cultural, political, and philosophical landscape of China for millennia to come. 
  The semi-legendary Xia Dynasty emerges from the shadows of prehistory as China's first hereditary state, traditionally dated to the third millennium BCE. While archaeological evidence remains elusive, the stories of Yu the Great taming floods and establishing systems of governance provided the foundational mythology for Chinese civilization. Here, we explore both the historical debates surrounding the Xia and the archaeological discoveries at sites like Erlitou that may represent this elusive first dynasty. 
  With the Shang Dynasty, we step onto firmer historical ground. From their capital cities at Zhengzhou and later Anyang, Shang kings presided over a sophisticated bronze-working civilization that developed China's earliest known writing system. The oracle bones—animal scapulae and turtle shells inscribed with divination records—offer unprecedented insights into the religious practices, military campaigns, and royal genealogies of this brilliant Bronze Age society. The magnificent ritual bronze vessels they created, with their intricate designs and ceremonial significance, remain among humanity's greatest artistic achievements. 
  The Zhou Dynasty—China's longest-lasting royal house—would build upon these foundations while introducing revolutionary concepts that would define Chinese civilization for thousands of years.

  Welcome to a new installment of the most successful collection in America, welcome to the Aeronautical Library! In this new edition, we have decided to take a different path to how we write and transmit knowledge and experiences. This new volume is not a technical manual like the previous manuals. Still, it is an explanatory manual based on experiences lived by a group of airline professionals who today form elite crews in international airlines worldwide. They will detail their paths until they reach where they are, they will express their experiences by recommending to each reader the most agile way to achieve their professional goals. 
  		This book is focused on understanding the way to becoming part of an international flight crew, starting from the initial interview in a company, through the entire personnel selection process, the theoretical courses of the plane to fly, the specific simulator instruction, the real flight instruction, the semi-annual instruction, the annual and semi-annual checks, the day-to-day work with all the operational details and many more details to know.  
  	 
  	Throughout these pages, each reader will know the experiences lived by our team of pilots, today temporarily writers, who have dedicated their free time to making a portrait of their experiences that we will call "Stories of Success" for this manual to become an indispensable guide for any pilot who wants to achieve the dream of flying an international airline. For such dedication, we thank Marcos (Pilot Boeing 787 Latam Airlines), Maximiliano (Pilot Airbus 380 Emirates), Fernando (Pilot Airbus 320 LatamAirline) and José (PilotA330 AviancaAirlines).
