Год: 1998
Формат: PDF
Размер: 27 Мб

World-renowned anthropologist and ethnopharmacologist Christian Ratsch provides the latest scientific updates to this classic work on psychoactive flora by two eminent researchers. Three scientific titans join forces to completely revise the classic text on the ritual uses of psychoactive plants. They provide a fascinating testimony of these “plants of the gods,” tracing their uses throughout the world and their significance in shaping culture and history. In the traditions of every culture, plants have been highly valued for their nourishing, healing, and transformative properties. The most powerful of those plants, which are known to transport the human mind into other dimensions of consciousness, have always been regarded as sacred. The authors detail the uses of hallucinogens in sacred shamanic rites while providing lucid explanations of the biochemistry of these plants and the cultural prayers, songs, and dances associated with them. The text is lavishly illustrated with 400 rare photographs of plants, people, ceremonies, and art related to the ritual use of the world’s sacred psychoactive flora. | |

 Название: Hope Diamond: The Legendary History of a Cursed Gem
Автор: Richard Kurin
Издательство: Smithsonian Books
Год: 2017
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 81 Мб
Язык: английский / English
An entertaining and well-researched history of the Hope diamond. Since its discovery in seventeenth-century India, the Hope diamond, a glimmering deep blue gem weighing over 45 carats, has been shrouded in mystery and steeped in intrigue. In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Richard Kurin goes beyond the speculation to reveal the truth behind a legendary stone. Kurin, a cultural anthropologist, spent more than a decade on the trail of the legendary gem. But the 'curse' that surrounds it, which Kurin puts to rest once and for all, is only one small piece of a long and lustrous story that moves between ancient religion and modern magic, royal power and class rivalry, revenge and greed. Richly illustrated, Hope Diamond works in a grand historical tradition: depicting the specific to reveal the universal. | |

 Название: Brace for Impact: Air Crashes and Aviation Safety
Автор: Peter Pigott
Издательство: Dundurn Press
Год: 2016
Формат: EPUB
Размер: 15 Мб
Язык: английский / English
Find out everything you need to know about air crashes and accidents, from what causes them to what you can do to survive.
Planes have always crashed. Even Icarus plummeted to his death after an “equipment malfunction.” Before engines could lift heavier-than-air machines off the ground, any attempt at flight was deadly. But for hundreds of years that did not prevent adventurers from strapping wings to their arms and leaping off hilltops and towers in the vain hope of flying. Since the Wright brothers flew, aircraft design, pilot training, maintenance, and air traffic control have all evolved to current standards. Often this has come at great cost, and through air crashes such as the de Havilland Comets in the 1950s and the Douglas DC-10s in the 1970s. But as aircraft got safer, terrorism learned to exploit new weaknesses. | |
