And I had no experience of camping or cycle maintenance. But all I could envisage was some romantic notion about becoming a cycling nomad: travelling wherever my heart desired, camping in the great outdoors, visiting beautiful and historic places, and searching for a place to call home.

Jacquelyn Lynn, "Start Your Own Child-Care Service: Your Step-By-Step Guide to Success " English | ISBN: 1599185679 | 2015 | 206 pages | EPUB | 4 MB START YOUR OWN CHILD-CARE SERVICE AND GET PAID TO CARE FOR KIDS  St Paul's Cathedral: Archaeology and History By John Schofield 2016 | 209 Pages | ISBN: 1785702750 | PDF | 15 MB This is the first volume concerned solely with the archaeology of a major late 17th century building in London, and the major changes it has undergone. St Paul's Cathedral in the City of London was built in 1675-1711 to the designs of Sir Christopher Wren and has been described as an iconic building many times. In this major new account, John Schofield examines the cathedral from an archaeological perspective, reviewing its history from the early 18th to the early 21st century, as illustrated by recent archaeological recording, documentary research and engineering assessment. A detailed account of the construction of the cathedral is provided based on a comparison of the fabric with voluminous building accounts which have survived and evidence from recent archaeological investigation. The construction of the Wren building and its embellishments are followed by the main works of later surveyors such as Robert Mylne and Francis Penrose. The 20th century brought further changes and conservation projects, including restoration after the building was hit by two bombs in World War II, and all its windows blown out. The 1990s and first years of the present century have witnessed considerable refurbishment and cleaning involving archaeological and engineering works. Archaeological specialist reports and an engineering review of the stability and character of the building are provided.Table of ContentsAcknowledgementsForwardSummary 1.

The book has about 1,400 pages containing colored illustrations of operative procedures spread across fields of general surgery, GI tract surgery, urology, vascular surgery, and basic laparoscopy. This textbook with its exhaustive coverage of practically all surgical procedures (common and otherwise) will definitely be useful for both undergraduate and postgraduate students of surgery as well as medical practitioners. The plentiful illustrations are simple and enhance the understanding of the subject. Gastrointestinal surgery is discussed in detail with illustrations. Urology mainly open methods are discussed adequately if not extensively. Basic laparoscopy and usual laparoscopy surgeries are discussed with highlighting the robotic surgeries, liposuction and so on. It differs from other operative surgery books by its unique presentations in detail with surgical anatomy and operative photographs of most of the procedures.  Spiritual Gems: The Mystical Qur'an Commentary Ascribed by the Sufis to Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (d. 148/765) By Jafar al-Sadiq, Farhana Mayer 2011 | 189 Pages | ISBN: 1891785303 | PDF | 12 MB The Arabic follows the text of Paul Nwyia's edition, including the lack of markings on the Arabic text of the Qur'an, per the request of the translator. Paul Nwyia came from a generation of scholars who subscribed to the notion that all the text in a manuscript, including Qur'anic passages, should match the manuscript text exactly. The majority of modern scholars in the field, however, no longer hold this view; rather, they believe that tafsir scholars would not have objected to the later addition of diacritical marks to the Qur'anic text as necessary, and in fact, would have expected this to be done. This is because they did not consider the Qur'anic passages as part of their own work; these passages could then be altered according to the received text of the Qur'an. The evidence for this view can be found in a number of texts on manuscript editing. |
