Alphabet Under Constructionby Denise FlemingISBN 0805081127 (0-8050-8112-7)
Softcover, Henry Holt & Co

› Find signed collectible books: 'Alphabet Under Construction'Book summary:The only one having a better time than the buck-toothed Mouse in Alphabet Under Construction is Denise Fleming, the gifted writer and illustrator who here brings back the hungry hero of Lunch for a trip through the alphabet and an arts-and-crafts roll call.
Letter by letter, page by page, the playful Mouse "constructs" the alphabet--airbrushing the A, buttoning the B, carving the C, and so on, employing all manner of scaffolds, ladders, and high- and low-tech devices to get the job done. (Clearly Mouse didn't really blow his budget until near the end, on the custom tiles, the X-ray machine, and the welding equipment.) Fleming employs an arcane process that involves "pouring colored cotton pulp through hand-cut stencils" to create her distinctive style. But fortunately, you don't have to have any idea what that means to enjoy her sense of humor, her vibrant colors, and her boisterous compositions.
Mouse gets messy before it's all over, but he delivers the alphabet on time--and only has to work two weekends! (As a funny touch, Fleming includes a note-covered project calendar that Mouse collapses under as he finishes.) Alphabet Under Construction also includes a fold-out, 42-by-7-inch poster that shows every page, from A to Z. (Ages 4 to 8) --Paul Hughes [via]

Calendar: Humanity's Epic Struggle to Determine a True and Accurate Yearby David Ewing DuncanISBN 0380793245 (0-380-79324-5)
Softcover, Bard
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Calendar: Humanity's Epic Struggle to Determine a True and Accurate Year'Book summary:In his latest book, David Ewing Duncan traces the development of our modern-day calendar and describes how people's experiences are shaped by their conception of time. Duncan postulates that all this concern with time started when a Cro-Magnon man decided to mark off the days of the lunar cycle on an eagle bone. After recounting the slow evolution of the calendar through the centuries, the author laments how time oriented our society has become: "There are moments when I am hopelessly late, or cannot possibly fit anything else into my schedule, when I sigh and wish that Cro-Magnon man 13,000 years ago in the Dordogne Valley had set aside his eagle bone and gone to bed."
The book is organized in chronological order and focuses mainly on the centuries leading up to the adoption of the Gregorian calendar (our modern calendar) by the Catholic Church in 1582. Along the way, Duncan describes the ancient calendars of many cultures all over the globe, from India to Egypt to the Mayan empire. During the Middle Ages, Christian churches discouraged scientific inquiry on the theory that it was wrong to question the nature of God's creation. This severely hampered the refinement of the calendar and the advancement of many academic pursuits. By the 16th century, Europe's calendars were 11 days out of sync with the solar year, which meant Easter was being celebrated on the wrong day. An infusion of knowledge from India and the Middle East helped Europeans get back on track. Duncan profiles the many mathematicians, philosophers, and monks who made organizing time their life's work. This book honors the efforts of those scholars and examines the way politics and religion influenced societal perceptions of time through the ages. --Jill Marquis [via]

Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Almanacby P. Kenneth SeidelmannISBN 0935702687 (0-935702-68-7)
Hardcover, Univ Science Books
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Almanac'Book summary:The original "Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Ephemeris and the American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac" was published in 1961 and revised in 1974. In 1981 the series of publications titled "The Astronomical Ephemeris" and the "American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac" were continued under the single title "The Astronomical Almanac". Thus, the title of the new edition of the "Explanatory Supplement". In the 1970s it was recognized that there was a need to revise the planetary and lunar ephemerides, the FK4 star catalog, the time scales, the System of Astronomical Constants and the Theory of Nutation. In 1984 all these revisions were introduced using the new standard epoch J2000.0, thus making the original "Explanatory Supplement" out of date. Hence, the new version was prepared based on the FK5 star catalog, the IAU (1976) System of Astronomical Constants, the new time scales, including those adopted in 199 1, the IAU (1980) Theory, of Nutation, and the DE200/LE200 ephemerides. Improvements since 1984 have also been incorporated. Current values of astrometric and planetary data are included. "Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Almanac" provides a detailed description of the means of performing practical astronomy or spherical astronomy. It shows how computations for the "Astronomical Almanac" are performed and the underlying information required by someone using that publication or wanting to perform related computations. It is intended to be a reference volume for anybody working with accurate positional astronomical data and anyone interested in investigations of the solar system. [via]

Marking Time: The Epic Quest to Invent the Perfect Calendarby Duncan SteelISBN 0471298271 (0-471-29827-1)
Hardcover, John Wiley & Sons Inc
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Marking Time: The Epic Quest to Invent the Perfect Calendar'Book summary:"A calendar is a tool," the historian of science E.J. Bickerman once observed, "which cannot be justified by either logic or astronomy."
Duncan Steel, an English space scientist, extends that argument in Marking Time, a broad-ranging history of the Western calendar--a chronological system that is logical after a fashion, but strangely flawed all the same. Steel begins his account by considering George Washington's dual birthday, which he celebrated as falling on February 11, 1731, but Americans celebrated as February 22, 1732. Both, Steel shows, are correct, the discrepancy owing to a later calendrical reform that parts of the world have yet to catch up to (so that Russia's October Revolution, by non-Russian standards, occurred in November). Steel examines the long history of attempts to give the calendar a basis in astronomical fact, shows how the advent of the railroad brought with it the need for a system of standardized mean time, examines the likeliest dates for the birth and death of Jesus, and plucks countless fascinating oddments from the historical record. He doesn't shy away from advancing controversial ideas, one being that the meridian time of Washington, D.C. may be a more useful world standard than that of Greenwich, England--and not merely for political reasons. Neither is he afraid to use sometimes difficult mathematics to prove his points, giving his book a depth that many other popular studies of the calendar lack.
With the dawning millennium, time is much on our minds. This is a book to satisfy idle curiosity, settle dinner-table arguments, and simply enjoy. --Gregory McNamee [via]

With humor and humility, Chambers speaks plainly to the common man struggling with devotion to Christ in daily living. Worldly cares and self-serving desires begin to lose their appeal as Chambers aides the reader in transforming his mind by viewing life through the instruction of God's Word. Richard Halverson, former chaplain of the United States Senate, attests to this: "no book except the Bible has influenced my walk with Christ at such deep maturing levels." This is Chambers's chief desire, directing the reader to "shut out every other consideration and keep yourself before God for this one thing only--My Utmost for His Highest... determined to be absolutely and entirely for Him and for Him alone." --Jill Heatherly [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'My Utmost for His Highest: K.J.V. Gift Edition'Book summary:Oswald Chambers, a Scotsman who converted to Christianity in his teens under the ministry of Charles Spurgeon, has been affecting Christians with his devotional words since My Utmost for His Highest was first published in 1935. This acknowledged classic contains 365 daily readings that take heady doctrine and make it practical, realistic, and intensely personal. With humor and humility, Chambers speaks plainly to the common man struggling with devotion to Christ in daily living. Worldly cares and self-serving desires begin to lose their appeal as Chambers aides the reader in transforming his mind by viewing life through the instruction of God's Word. Richard Halverson, former chaplain of the United States Senate, attests to this: "no book except the Bible has influenced my walk with Christ at such deep maturing levels." This is Chambers's chief desire, directing the reader to "shut out every other consideration and keep yourself before God for this one thing only--My Utmost for His Highest... determined to be absolutely and entirely for Him and for Him alone." --Jill Heatherly [via]

Questioning the Millennium: A Rationalist's Guide to a Precisely Arbitrary Countdownby Stephen Jay GouldISBN 0609605410 (0-609-60541-0)
Hardcover, Random House Inc
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Questioning the Millennium: A Rationalist's Guide to a Precisely Arbitrary Countdown'Book summary:In this slender volume, Stephen Jay Gould addresses three questions about the millennium with his typical combination of erudition, warmth, and whimsy: As a calendrical event, what is the concept of a millennium and how has its meaning shifted over time? How did the projection of Christ's 1,000-year reign become a secular measure? And when exactly will the millennium begin--January 1, 2000, or January 2, 2001?
"Our urge to know is so great, but our common errors cut so deep. You just gotta love us," he states disarmingly in the preface. "And you gotta view misguided millennial passion as a primary example of our uniqueness and our absurdity--in other words, of our humanity." Gould's own curiosity about time and calendars was triggered by a 1950 issue of Life magazine, which cut the century in half with its evaluation of what had happened and its prediction of things to come, propelling his third-grade mind to the year 2000. In Questioning the Millennium, Gould promises to make no predictions (other than "an orgy of millennial books"); court no millennial epiphanies; and put forth no theories on the collective angst that typically accompanies a century's end. Instead, he answers the millennial questions which, for him, represent the intersection of undeniable reality (i.e., natural fact) and human interpretation. Gould's questions and learned answers, weaving many historical and scientific facts, are a loving inquiry into the human need for order in a vast and teeming universe. [via]
