Erstausgabe
Magazine. Zustand: Very Good. 40pp. Newsprint [43cm x 27.5cm / 17" x 11"]. Ten bifolia (sheets folded vertically once to form forty pages). Age toned throughout. Occasional light creasing, fore-edges lightly bumped. Small ink stamped address on the rear cover page, for mailing, reads: "Library for Social and Technological Alternatives | Box 472 | Fairfax, CA 94930." Earth First! is a group of radical environmentalists that formed in the American Southwest in the spring of 1980, founded by Dave Foreman, Mike Roselle, Howie Wolke, Bart Koehler, and Ron Kezar, among others. Earth First! quickly came to national attention with their "cracking" of Glen Canyon Dam activist stunt, which was performed and filmed in the spring of 1981. Edward Abbey is considered to be the "literary father" of the group. "Earth First! is the beginning of the new, bold environmental movement. And 'Earth First! The Radical Environmental Journal' is its voice" (Dave Foreman, Editor). Rear cover half-page illustration by Lone Wolf Circles dated '88 is untitled and depicts a ranch hand herding a large group of branded cattle in front of mountain peaks, above which shows, in a dreamy puff of clouds, some of the much wilder and disappearing Western animals: a buffalo, a wolf, a fox, a wolverine. Cover story by Howie Woke is entitled "Stop the Forest Service!" Cover illustration entitled "The Forest Service Cometh" by Christoph Manes depicts the grim reaper scything down a patch of old-growth forest. David Gaines (1947-1988) obituary printed on page 3. Full-page ad "EF! Local Groups Merchandise" with "Usual Disgusting Plea for Money" on page 15. Curious article on page 25 entitled "Deep Ecology and Magic: Notes of a Sleight-of-hand Sorcerer" by David Abram ("David Abram, in addition to being a spell-binding magician, is a philosophy teacher at SUNY"). Edward Abbey's review of Wendell Berry's work "Home Economics" is printed on page 32. Wendell Berry's "My Answer to Edward Abbey" follows on page 33. Other credited Earth First! staff for this issue include: John Davis (Managing Editor), Kris Sommerville (Business Manager), Charles Conner (Shipping & Mailing), Helen Wilson (Cartography), Mike Roselle (Roving Editor), David Cross (Roving Editor), Roger Featherstone (Roving Editor), Art Goodtimes (Poetry Editor), Christoph Manes (Associate Editor), and Tucson Earth First!

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Komatiites erupted billions of years ago as pulsating streams of white-hot lava. Their unusual chemical compositions and exceptionally high formation temperatures produced highly fluid lava that crystallized as spectacular layered flows. Investigation of the extreme conditions in which komatiites formed provides important evidence about the thermal and chemical evolution of the planet, and the nature of the Precambrian mantle. This monograph, written by three experts with long experience in the field, presents a complete account of the characteristics of komatiites including their volcanic structures, textures, mineralogy and chemical compositions. Models for their formation and eruption are evaluated (including the anhydrous vs. hydrous magmas controversy). A chapter is also devoted to the valuable nickel and copper ore deposits found in komatiites. Komatiite is a key reference for researchers and advanced students interested in petrology, Archaean geology, economic geology, and broader questions about the evolution of the Earth's crust and mantle.
