Sinopse

Cave System Mapping explores the intricate world of speleology, geological surveying, and cave exploration, emphasizing the importance of mapping techniques for understanding subterranean realms. The book highlights how accurate cave maps are essential for geological research, hydrological studies, and protecting fragile cave ecosystems. Did you know that technological advancements like laser scanners have revolutionized cave mapping, enabling more precise and comprehensive surveys compared to the simple tools used by early explorers? This book uniquely integrates advanced mapping techniques with geological principles, providing a practical guide for researchers, students, and conservation professionals. It begins with fundamental concepts and progresses through traditional to advanced mapping technologies, such as photogrammetry. The book then explores the diverse applications of cave maps, from managing karst systems to documenting ecologically significant caves. This approach underscores the book's value in bridging the gap between Earth Science and practical adventure.

    J.M. Synge, one of the greatest English language playwrites of the 20th century, immortalized the Aran Islands and its people with vivid written portraits that are among the greatest in modern literature. Synge's vibrant language and earthy themes breathtakingly capture the folklore and way of life that has since perished on these remote northen islands. As an aspiring writer in 1897, Synge was commanded by William Butler Yeats to, "Go to the Aran Islands. Live there as one of the people themselves; express a life that has never found expression." Synge captures his first four visits to the islands in this magical book. However, their influence continued to permeate his work, including The Playboy of the Western World. Filled with the exuberant energy of an artist coming into his own, The Aran Islands provides an unforgettable look at a land that holds Ireland's ancestral language, culture and uncorrupted heart. Synge's lyrical glimpses into the past, coupled with Donal Donnelly's rich, lilting voice transports listeners to these tiny Emerald Islands.

    Almost half a century ago, a young reporter from Germany arrived in still-glamorous Saigon to cover the Vietnam War over a period of five years. In this memoir he now tells the story of how he fell in love with the Vietnamese people. He praises the beauty, elegance and feistiness of their women. He describes blood-curdling Communist atrocities and fierce combat scenes he had witnessed. He introduces a striking array of characters: heroes, villains, statesmen and spooks, hilarious eccentrics, street urchins and orphans herding water buffalos. He shows how professional malpractice by U.S. media stars such as Walter Cronkite turned the military victory of American and South Vietnamese forces during the 1968 Tet Offensive into a political defeat. He mourns the countless innocent victims of the Communist conquest of South Vietnam, which was the grim consequence of its abandonment by the United States. Thus, he argues, the wrong side won. Finally, with the eyes on Afghanistan, he poses a harrowing question: Are democratic societies with their proclivity for self-indulgence politically and psychologically equipped to win a protracted war against a totalitarian foe?
