Large numbers of specimens have been used to delimit species and careful note has been taken of associations between different fossil species. A key feature is the focus on fossil seed plant reproductive structures which are represented by 35 genera and more than 80 species. The book paints a vivid picture of the diversity of life in the Molteno flood plain 230 million years ago and documents the habitats in which modern groups such as mammals conifers and beetles started to emerge.

‎Infectious Diseases of Humans: Dynamics and Control‎

‎Oxford U.K.: Oxford University Press 1992. This book deals with infectious diseases -- viral bacterial protozoan and helminth -- in terms of the dynamics of their interaction with host populations. The book combines mathematical models with extensive use of epidemiological and other data. This analytic framework is highly useful for the evaluation of public health strategies aimed at controlling or eradicating particular infections. Such a framework is increasingly important in light of the widespread concern for primary health care programs aimed at such diseases as measles malaria river blindness sleeping sickness and schistosomiasis and the advent of AIDS/HIV and other emerging viruses. Throughout the book the mathematics is used as a tool for thinking clearly about fundamental and applied problems having to do with infectious diseases. The book is divided into two parts one dealing with microparasites viruses bacteria and protozoans and the other with macroparasites helminths and parasitic arthropods. Each part begins with simple models developed in a biologically intuitive way and then goes on to develop more complicated and realistic models as tools for public health planning. 757 pp. Illustrated. Average shelfwear and some minor rubbing to the edges and corners. First Edition. Soft Cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Oxford University Press Paperback‎

‎ANDERSON JENNIFER L‎

‎Mahogany: The Costs Of Luxury In Early America‎

‎Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2012. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. In the mid-eighteenth century colonial Americans became enamored with the rich colors and silky surface of mahogany. This exotic wood imported from the West Indies and Central America quickly displaced local furniture woods as the height of fashion. Over the next century consumer demand for mahogany set in motion elaborate schemes to secure the trees and transform their rough-hewn logs into exquisite objects. But beneath the polished gleam of this furniture lies a darker hidden story of human and environmental exploitation. Mahogany traces the path of this wood through many hands from source to sale: from the enslaved African woodcutters including skilled "huntsmen" who located the elusive trees amidst dense rainforest to the ship captains merchants and timber dealers who scrambled after the best logs to the skilled cabinetmakers who crafted the wood and with it the tastes and aspirations of their diverse clientele. As the trees became scarce however the search for new sources led to expanded slave labor vicious competition and intense international conflicts over this diminishing natural resource. When nineteenth-century American furniture makers turned to other materials surviving mahogany objects were revalued as antiques evocative of the nation's past. Jennifer L. Anderson offers a dynamic portrait of the many players locales and motivations that drove the voracious quest for mahogany to adorn American parlors and dining rooms. This complex story reveals the cultural economic and environmental costs of America's growing self-confidence and prosperity and how desire shaped not just people's lives but the natural world. 432 pages 5-1/2 x 8-1/4 inches 11 color illustrations 19 halftones 2 maps. Jennifer L. Anderson is Associate Professor of History at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. "A fascinating book about the most coveted wood in early America and indeed the 18th-century British Empire� This enlightening�study does for mahogany what others long ago did for sugar and tobacco chocolate and coffee rubber and bananas� From an impressive number of archival sources Anderson has assembled a vibrant collective portrait of colonial grandees�Benjamin and William Franklin among them�declaring their social dominance through hard-won mahogany possessions."�Kirk Davis Swinehart The Wall Street Journal "From the 1720s to the mid-19th century mahogany was the preeminent medium for conspicuous consumption on both sides of the Atlantic� However as Anderson's superb book makes abundantly clear the polished luster of these immaculate objects came from exploitative labor practices ecological devastation and phenomenal business failures all of which attested to the commodity's natural and human cost� Anderson's is a remarkable contribution to Atlantic history that�will be much enjoyed by anyone interested in the history of trade in colonial America and the Caribbean."�Brian Odom Library Journal "Anderson details the history of the search for trade in and use of mahogany. Though the title directs readers to early America for Anderson America is in reality the Atlantic world. Most of the author's time is spent among the islands of the Caribbean or near the Bay of Honduras in Belize where mahogany was harvested. Anderson paints a picture of the Atlantic world in which travel and trade were the norm and families lived and worked up and down the coasts of North and Central America as well as on numerous Caribbean islands."�S.A. Jacobe Choice "Anderson's evocative and stunning Mahogany reminds us of both the deep ties between humans and trees and the sharp consequences of allowing our passion for beauty to trump nature's capacity to sustain a species."�Peter C. Mancall author of Fatal Journey: The Final Expedition of Henry Hudson "Anderson has crafted a rich blend of the cultural history of mahogany the social history of logging the economic history of the mahogany timber trade the environmental history of Caribbean forests and the history of the natural history of mahogany. The result is an elegant essay in Atlantic history."�J.R. McNeill author of Mosquito Empires: Ecology and War in the Greater Caribbean 1620-1914 "This superb study of a vital early American commodity focuses on its production distribution and consumption from the age of sail to the era of steam. Mahogany's sumptuousness came at a severe price somewhat offset by enhanced knowledge of its properties and opportunities in its harvesting. With its highly nuanced and sophisticated argument this book deserves a wide readership."�Philip Morgan author of Slave Counterpoint: Black Culture in the Eighteenth-Century Chesapeake and Lowcountry "'When you drink the water think of the well-digger' is folk wisdom around the world. Anderson wisely adds when you see elegant mahogany furniture think of the hard-handed African slave hacking away under deadly working conditions at a tall hardwood tree in a hot dense Caribbean rainforest. Like Sidney Mintz's classic study of sugar Sweetness and Power this book makes us see the familiar in new and disturbing ways."�Marcus Rediker author of The Slave Ship: A Human History Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2012 hardcover‎

‎Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2015. Softcover. Brand new book. In the mid-eighteenth century colonial Americans became enamored with the rich colors and silky surface of mahogany. This exotic wood imported from the West Indies and Central America quickly displaced local furniture woods as the height of fashion. Over the next century consumer demand for mahogany set in motion elaborate schemes to secure the trees and transform their rough-hewn logs into exquisite objects. But beneath the polished gleam of this furniture lies a darker hidden story of human and environmental exploitation. Mahogany traces the path of this wood through many hands from source to sale: from the enslaved African woodcutters including skilled "huntsmen" who located the elusive trees amidst dense rainforest to the ship captains merchants and timber dealers who scrambled after the best logs to the skilled cabinetmakers who crafted the wood and with it the tastes and aspirations of their diverse clientele. As the trees became scarce however the search for new sources led to expanded slave labor vicious competition and intense international conflicts over this diminishing natural resource. When nineteenth-century American furniture makers turned to other materials surviving mahogany objects were revalued as antiques evocative of the nation's past. Jennifer L. Anderson offers a dynamic portrait of the many players locales and motivations that drove the voracious quest for mahogany to adorn American parlors and dining rooms. This complex story reveals the cultural economic and environmental costs of America's growing self-confidence and prosperity and how desire shaped not just people's lives but the natural world. 432 pages 5-1/2 x 8-1/4 inches 11 color illustrations 19 halftones 2 maps. Jennifer L. Anderson is Associate Professor of History at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. "A fascinating book about the most coveted wood in early America and indeed the 18th-century British Empire� This enlightening�study does for mahogany what others long ago did for sugar and tobacco chocolate and coffee rubber and bananas� From an impressive number of archival sources Anderson has assembled a vibrant collective portrait of colonial grandees�Benjamin and William Franklin among them�declaring their social dominance through hard-won mahogany possessions."�Kirk Davis Swinehart The Wall Street Journal "From the 1720s to the mid-19th century mahogany was the preeminent medium for conspicuous consumption on both sides of the Atlantic� However as Anderson's superb book makes abundantly clear the polished luster of these immaculate objects came from exploitative labor practices ecological devastation and phenomenal business failures all of which attested to the commodity's natural and human cost� Anderson's is a remarkable contribution to Atlantic history that�will be much enjoyed by anyone interested in the history of trade in colonial America and the Caribbean."�Brian Odom Library Journal "Anderson details the history of the search for trade in and use of mahogany. Though the title directs readers to early America for Anderson America is in reality the Atlantic world. Most of the author's time is spent among the islands of the Caribbean or near the Bay of Honduras in Belize where mahogany was harvested. Anderson paints a picture of the Atlantic world in which travel and trade were the norm and families lived and worked up and down the coasts of North and Central America as well as on numerous Caribbean islands."�S.A. Jacobe Choice "Anderson's evocative and stunning Mahogany reminds us of both the deep ties between humans and trees and the sharp consequences of allowing our passion for beauty to trump nature's capacity to sustain a species."�Peter C. Mancall author of Fatal Journey: The Final Expedition of Henry Hudson "Anderson has crafted a rich blend of the cultural history of mahogany the social history of logging the economic history of the mahogany timber trade the environmental history of Caribbean forests and the history of the natural history of mahogany. The result is an elegant essay in Atlantic history."�J.R. McNeill author of Mosquito Empires: Ecology and War in the Greater Caribbean 1620-1914 "This superb study of a vital early American commodity focuses on its production distribution and consumption from the age of sail to the era of steam. Mahogany's sumptuousness came at a severe price somewhat offset by enhanced knowledge of its properties and opportunities in its harvesting. With its highly nuanced and sophisticated argument this book deserves a wide readership."�Philip Morgan author of Slave Counterpoint: Black Culture in the Eighteenth-Century Chesapeake and Lowcountry "'When you drink the water think of the well-digger' is folk wisdom around the world. Anderson wisely adds when you see elegant mahogany furniture think of the hard-handed African slave hacking away under deadly working conditions at a tall hardwood tree in a hot dense Caribbean rainforest. Like Sidney Mintz's classic study of sugar Sweetness and Power this book makes us see the familiar in new and disturbing ways."�Marcus Rediker author of The Slave Ship: A Human History Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2015 paperback‎
