| BIZONY, PIERS Space : 50 Years of the Space Age Collins. 2006. (ISBN: 0007242220) Hard Cover. This work includes a foreword by Arthur C Clarke. In October 1957, a metallic sphere the size of a basketball bleeped its way into orbit. It was called 'Sputnik'. From this modest beginning, an epic new adventure was born. In less than the span of a human lifetime we have explored the Moon and launched robot probes to Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and far beyond. "Space" explores the major themes of rocket exploration, past, present and future, and celebrates the first half-century of space exploration. Specially selected images recall an age when giant rockets were the last word in modernity, and silver-suited astronauts were household names. Now we are preparing for a historic return to the Moon in the coming decade, and making serious plans to explore Mars. What awaits us in the next 50 years of space exploration? The contents include: from literature to launch day - science fiction predicts rockets and space exploration; The Heavens and the Earth - experimental missiles and satellites inspire the politicians; Selling the Space Age - consumer culture absorbs the romance of rockets; Red Star in Orbit - Russian triumphs and tragedies in orbit, and on earth; Machine Ambassadors - robot probes explore Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn; and The Way Ahead - do we have a long-term future in space?.

| EBDON, DAVID Statistics in Geography Blackwell. 1985. (ISBN: 0631136886) Soft Cover. Statistics in Geography has established itself as the best introductory textbook on the subject: the author makes statistical concepts and techniques intellible and their applications in a wide variety of problems comprehensible, even exciting. The main feature of this much–awaited new edition is a set of 17 computer programs (with sample outputs) that cover nearly all the statistical techniques described. These have been carefully written to be user–friendly in an elementary subset of Basic to make them simple to implement on most micro computers. This means students can be more adventurous in their applications and interpretations of statistical techniques. The author has, at the same time, retained all the worked examples in the book so that the reader can gain insight into the logic of the methds by working through them by hand. These, together with problems of various levels of complexity plus comprehensive answers at the back of the book, provide the student with a clear and thorough understanding of both the methods and their potential applications.

| HEALY, SUE (ED) Spatial Representation in Animals Oxford, Oxford University Press. 1998. (ISBN: 0198500068) Soft Cover, 8vo - over 7" - 9" tall. Our understanding of the way in which animals know how, when, and where to orient and navigate around their environment has grown considerably over the last decade. Movements may be anything from small displacements in the immediate environment to the long-distance migration of salmon or swallows. How animals find their way around is both immensely variable and controversial - what cues they use and what senses are involved, how much they remember, to what extent they rely on instinctive information or learning, how the processing and storing of spatial information occurs in the brain. Discussion of landmark use, dead reckoning, spatial memory, and map-making ranges across disciplines, with different perspectives emerging from research in behaviour, ecology, psychology, and neurophysiology. Spatial Representation in Animals brings together cross-disciplinary research on navigation in several different species, in an accessible and exciting way. Individual authors, all eminent specialists within their fields, have been asked to present reviews of the material with which they are most familiar and to speculate about future directions in the field. This will be an ideal introductory text for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of biology or psychology taking a course in animal navigation. New/New - Minor Shelf Wear.
