Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Let me ask you a question. When you hear the word clay, what is the first thing that you think of? Do you think about clay pots? This is what I used to think some time ago. And when you hear the word mud, do you imagine the squishy stuff you see under your feet when it rains? You probably don't, but this is what I used to think about first before I started my research. Not that I was unaware of clays and mud being used in beauty and healing. It's just that these words didn't mean much to me. Well, not until I saw some grey powder on my mother's window sill. I asked her what cement was doing on her window sill. She laughed and said that it was a very special cement called blue Cambrian clay and that many people were using it not only for its wonderful action on the skin but also for healing, with many positive outcomes. My mum's comment got me curious, so I started researching clays and their properties. I found out that people had been using clay for thousands of years. They used it to disinfect wounds, stop the infection from spreading, prevent diarrhoea and food poisoning. Clay was used for stopping aches and pains, as a source of valuable minerals, and for many other purposes. During both WWI and WWII clays were included in soldiers' rations to help keep the water clean, stop diarrhoea and food poisoning, as well as wounds from being infected. Many soldiers' limbs were saved by clay.While I was researching clay, I stumbled upon information about mud. I found out that mud was being used successfully by medical spas all over the world to treat a whole variety of medical problems, such as arthritis, eczema, psoriasis, gynaecological problems, infertility, weight problems, disorders of the nervous system, and much more. We all know Dead Sea mud. There are many other types of mud - salt water and fresh water ones, all having their own healing properties. As I was researching the healing properties of muds, I realised that salts were part of the healing minerals range, and started researching their properties. The salts which stood out for me were magnesium chloride and magnesium sulphate. I found out that using them in a bath, spray or wrap ensured the quickest way to supplement the body with magnesium - the 4th most abundant mineral in the body which takes part in over 300 body processes. Then I found out about the healing properties of other salts, detoxifying properties of zeolite, and anti-parasite properties of diatomite. I am still learning. This book is a modest attempt to share some of what I have learned so that you rediscover for yourself what your body has known ever since the day you were born - that our body is a living ocean which has all the minerals we need. Most of them are found in what surrounds us - the humble minerals.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. For 65 million years dinosaurs ruled the Earth--until a deadly asteroid forced their extinction. But what accounts for the incredible longevity of dinosaurs? A renowned scientist now provides a startling explanation that is rewriting the history of the Age of Dinosaurs. Dinosaurs were pretty amazing creatures--real-life monsters that have the power to fascinate us. And their fiery Hollywood ending only serves to make the story that much more dramatic. But fossil evidence demonstrates that dinosaurs survived several mass extinctions, and were seemingly unaffected by catastrophes that decimated most other life on Earth. What could explain their uncanny ability to endure through the ages? Biologist and earth scientist Peter Ward now accounts for the remarkable indestructibility of dinosaurs by connecting their unusual respiration system with their ability to adapt to Earth's changing environment--a system that was ultimately bequeathed to their descendants, birds. By tracing the evolutionary path back through time and carefully connecting the dots from birds to dinosaurs, Ward describes the unique form of breathing shared by these two distant relatives and demonstrates how this simple but remarkable characteristic provides the elusive explanation to a question that has thus far stumped scientists. Nothing short of revolutionary in its bold presentation of an astonishing theory, Out of Thin Air is a story of science at the edge of discovery. Ward is an outstanding guide to the process of scientific detection. Audacious and innovative in his thinking, meticulous and thoroughly detailed in his research, only a scientist of his caliber is capable of telling this surprising story. …

Zustand: Good. The Shelters of Stone opens as Ayla and Jondalar, along with their animal friends, Wolf, Whinney, and Racer, complete their epic journey across Europe and are greeted by Jondalar's people: the Zelandonii. The people of the Ninth Cave of the Zelandonii fascinate Ayla. Their clothes, customs, artifacts, even their homes--formed in great cliffs of vertical limestone--are a source of wonder to her. And in the woman Zelandoni, the spiritual leader of the Ninth Cave (and the one who initiated Jondalar into the Gift of Pleasure), she meets a fellow healer with whom to share her knowledge and skills. But as Ayla and Jondalar prepare for the formal mating at the Summer Meeting, there are difficulties. Not all the Zelandonii are welcoming. Some fear Ayla's unfamiliar ways and abhor her relationship with those they call flatheads and she calls Clan. Some even oppose her mating with Jondalar, and make their displeasure known. Ayla has to call on all her skills, intelligence, knowledge, and instincts to find her way in this complicated society, to prepare for the birth of her child, and to decide whether she will accept new challenges and play a significant role in the destiny of the Zelandonii. Jean Auel is at her very best in this superbly textured creation of a prehistoric society. The Shelters of Stone is a sweeping story of love and danger, with all the wonderful detail--based on meticulous research-- that makes her novels unique. It is a triumphant continuation of the Earth's Children(R) saga that began with The Clan of the Cave Bear. And it includes an amazing rhythmic poem that describes the birth of Earth's Children and plays its own role in the narrative of The Shelters ofStone. From the Hardcover edition. …

Zustand: Fair. This unforgettable odyssey into the distant past carries us back to the awesome mysteries of the exotic, primeval world of The Clan of the Cave Bear, and to Ayla, now grown into a beautiful and courageous young woman. Cruelly cast out by the new leader of the ancient Clan that adopted her as a child, Ayla leaves those she loves behind and travels alone through a stark, open land filled with dangerous animals but few people, searching for the Others, tall and fair like herself. The short summer gives her little time to look, and when she finds a sheltered valley with a herd of hardy steppe horses, she decides to stay and prepare for the long glacial winter ahead. Living with the Clan has taught Ayla many skills but not real hunting. She finally knows she can survive when she traps a horse, which gives her meat and a warm pelt for the winter, but fate has bestowed a greater gift, an orphaned foal with whom she develops a unique kinship. One winter extends to more; she discovers a way to make fire more quickly and a wounded cave lion cub joins her unusual family, but her beloved animals don't fulfill her restless need for human companionship. Then she hears the sound of a man screaming in pain. She saves tall, handsome Jondalar, who brings her a language to speak and an awakening of love and desire, but Ayla is torn between her fear of leaving her valley and her hope of living with her own kind.…
