        Book Description

        The red soils of China are highly weathered, inherently infertile and very susceptible to erosion. However, they represent China's last available soil resource that could be brought into agricultural production, a fact that assumes great importance in view of China's huge and still-increasing population. These soils are typical of similar red soils that occur throughout tropical and sub-tropical South America, Africa and south east Asia, so that if the red soils of China could be successfully utilized then this would have wider implications for agriculture in other countries. Previous attempts to cultivate Chinese red soils have met with little success and it has become apparent that they cannot sustain arable cropping systems without the most careful management.
        This book describes recent research outlining the physical, chemical and mineralogical nature of the soils, the various constraints that combine to inhibit their practical use, and the traditional and novel approaches that may be used to overcome these constraints. Building upon previous work and using examples from other countries, the book illustrates these approaches, shows appropriate land uses for the red soils of China and how the fertility of the soils evolves with time under these land uses. Whether these technical and scientific advances will be taken up by the Chinese farmer will depend to a large extent on the prevailing socio-economic conditions.

        5 out of 5 stars The best book for writing lab reports in college........2007-03-06

        Every time I have to do a lab report, I use this book. No exceptions. Although I cannot comment on the other aspects of the book in (check out the "Look Inside!" Table of Contents), its guidance for writing lab reports is helpful to the utmost. Before this book, I made in the high 80s on my lab reports; now it is rare that I go below a 95. The book is full of what to do and, more importantly, what not to do. For example, never give purpose to evolution (I am paraphrasing, of course). Birds did not evolve flight to escape predators or to travel long distance; they evolved flight because a series of random DNA mutations turned forelimbs into wings, and that increased their survival rate. That is just one of numerous examples, and, best of all, all of the examples given are extremely relevant to college students because the material comes from college-level lab reports. Still, all of my biology professors have this book, in one edition or anther, on their shelves. This review refers to the 5th edition.

        5 out of 5 stars The only writing manual you'll ever need.......2007-01-26

        I've used this book since I was a freshman biology major. I'm now a Ph.D. student and I still reference this book. I've read other writing manuals designed for students in the sciences, but I've found that nothing is as clear and useful to students in the life sciences as this book.

        5 out of 5 stars Very Helpful........2006-02-26

        My daugther is the one that uses this and she finds it very helpful to understanding the lessons.

        5 out of 5 stars An essential for all students........1999-02-04

        As a university professor teaching budding biologists, I've found this book to be excellent. As the other reviewer said, I wished I had this book when I was a student. I, too, had to learn things the long and hard way. Pechinik has done a great service to science students. Let's hope we see more good writing out of this next generation of young scientists.

        5 out of 5 stars Absolutely Essential.......1998-03-27

        Every biology undergraduate should read this book. I wish I'd known about it when I was an undergraduate; it contains most of the information I had to learn the hard way.

                    5 out of 5 stars Read to simplicity.......2002-10-14

                    The book gives people who can't read Chinese the possibility to read into the works of the ancient Yang-style decendants.

                    By presenting a direct translation of the originals YJM gives you the possibility to read and explain the text - with your own practical experience - to your own opinion. Therefore it gives you the possibility to grow further in your own development. Furthermore it gives directly knowledge of the - for many people not acceptable - origin of Tai Chi, the martial arts. No secrets and flowting techniques, but plain and simpel, right to the point telling where to look in your own Tai Chi.

                    We make Tai Chi difficult, but it isn't, you just have to train and look the right things, make them your own. The book says where to look.

                    I agree with the fact that you will need a certain practice experience to understand what is written, but when you read the book several times in the years to come and practice, you will see different things in the text with time.

                    With the commentaries of YJM over the direct translations I do not always agree, but at least he will put you in the right direction to look. It is impossible to write out, what you have to experience through practice! So buy the book, read several chapters and look for the things in your training.

                    Time will tell you!

                    Probably NOT all that useful to the beginner, but certainly to the intermediate and advanced student -- even to those practicing styles other than Wu. For those of you who haven't looked at these translations from Yang J-M, they are worth the trouble for all the little corners of insight your practice alone -- and your own traditional texts alone -- won't provide.

                    5 out of 5 stars Authentic Explanation for the Theories.......2003-03-24

                    This is a must have for everyone who is willing to diligently study, and practice Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan. The book provides the transalation of the classics as well as the Masters interpretation and elaboration. I believe that without a thorough understanding of the theories underneath, one's skill can never prosper. Very useful book!

                    5 out of 5 stars Translates basic classic forms from the original Chinese.......2002-07-08

                    Tai chi has, since ancient times, brought benefits in health and longevity to its practitioners.

                    4 out of 5 stars Part of one's basic tools box.......2006-12-08

                    A handy tool to take everywhere. Look at my review on the same publisher's dictionary of Classical Greek. I could have used here the same words I used there. It is not supposed to be your exhaustive reference work, but will certainly be very useful as a small take-along one! Within its scope, a good purchase.

                    I am currently learning to read and write Hebrew. The product Langenscheidt Pocket dictionary is a valuable aid to my daily work. I highly recommend to anyone learning Hebrew.

                    Be aware that this is a dictionary of Biblical Hebrew, and not Modern Hebrew.

                    5 out of 5 stars Unique.......2002-06-27

                    This is useful in that it is a pocket sized dictionary of Biblical Hebrew, whereas most of that sort are large lexicons.

                    4 out of 5 stars OK for portable reference.......2002-01-10

                    It's small, it's not too hard on the eyes and it covers the vocabulary. Of course, you must know enough of the language to be able to find an entry. Not appropriate for exegesis papers, but useful for "quick" reading.

                    3 out of 5 stars A great Hebrew tool, but.................2001-07-14

                    This is a great Hebrew tool, but cannot stand on its own for the beginning student. The problem is that it is a Hebrew to English dictionary, which is useful, but it is not an English to Hebrew dictionary.

                    4 out of 5 stars Great Pocket Resource.......2001-03-16

                    This dictionary provides every lexiconical entry for the Hebrew Tanach. Each entry provides the various translations foudn in the Tanach for the entry. It also provides under each basic entry the meaning for the word as used in other forms, such as verb stems, nouns, participles, infinitives, adjectives, etc. Every form of the word that occurs in the Tanach is found in this resource. The only "basic" source I find more useful at times concerning the meanings of the words is the lexicon in the Strong' Concordance, which provides the basic meaning and nuances behind the Hebrew translation. An advantage of this pocket dictionary, on the other hand, is that it provides what Strong does not: the meanings as directly associated to particular grammatical forms of the word. For instance, Strong would state that the root meaning of "deep" as in "deep water" is "agitation." The root meaning for the word "sea" is "roar." This pocket dictionary does not speak concerning this. If one follows these words through the Old Testament, one finds that their "hidden" lexiconical meaning (the meaning that doesn't show up in translation) is very foundational to its contextual use. But Strong provides no meanings as associated with various grammatical uses of the words. For instance, the pocket dictionary under review would state that the word for "visit" means to have rule or charge over something in the Hifil stem. Strong gives no such associational comparisons of meaning as related to changes in grammatical use. I believe both resources, as basic resources, must be had by the Hebrew student. By having both, one gets what one could never have by only having one of these resources. This dictionary also provides meanings that books of Hebrew word lists do not provide.

                                    Jason Wirth has gathered together an impressive group of scholars to comment not only on the work of Fukushima, but also the art of Zen calligraphy itself. This gorgeous book looks at the art of Japanese Calligraphy through the eye of the philosopher-- and illuminates the beauty, grace, and subtelty of this seemingly simple art form-- revealing that what at first may seem to be simple strokes is actually a journey unto itself. Highly recommended for those new to this art form as well those who are already quite familiar.
