021561Gifu Loose title page in English and Japanese age-toned 80 page descriptive booklet in Japanese the front cover a little age-toned four-page folded loose index in English 109 very fine colour lithographic plates loose one plate a little foxed one plates stained in the margin one final page in Japanese age-toned; loosely tied with blue silk and contained in the original blue cloth fitted folding box rubbed secured with two ties with bamboo clasps one tie in danger of becoming detached. RARE. The first edition of this iconic book was 1914 and the second edition two years later in 1916. The title page to our copy is definitely that of the first edition - it has the misprint 'Illustraions' and no English date; whereas in the second edition the date appears and the misprint is corrected. Our copy has 109 plates which is definitely correct for the second edition; however the only copy of the first edition online is that of Jerry Stanoff's Rare Oriental Book Company which states 101 plates - now is his copy lacking or is our own copy a mixture of editions ! I can find no copy of the first edition in a library so I can't corroborate this at the moment. "Isuke Tsuboi 1843-1925 a man who devoted himself to the research of bamboo for nearly forty years and was known as "Japans foremost bamboo guru". In 1881 he set up a farm to experiment with bamboo planting. Over the many years of his hard work Tsuboi accumulated fruitful knowledge in bamboo species and their phytogeographic patterns. He also developed efficient planting methods identified the causes of withering and discovered efficient ways to fight against pests. During his years of research Tsuboi made frequent trips between Taiwan China and Japan which demonstrate the seriousness and diligence with which he pursued the study of bamboo. He was the first man to build a bamboo specimen garden in Japan a place that displayed his categorization of all native bamboo species in Japan. Botanists directors of bamboo groves and bamboo lovers of his time all came to marvel at the richness of his collection. Sadly after Tsuboi passed away the garden was abandoned and then vanished in disrepair. Tsubois Illustrations of the Japanese Species of Bamboo stands as one of the great achievements of his research. The book depicts various species and morphology of bamboo and contains intricate sketches of their inner parts. Even by todays standard this book still retains great value as a reference guide.".

2002011104Cambridge University Press 2002. A few illustrations and charts within the text pp viii 274 laminated boards a very good copy. The multitrophic level approach to ecology addresses the complexity of food webs much more realistically than the traditional focus on simple systems and interactions. Only in the last few decades have ecologists become interested in the nature of more complex systems including tritrophic interactions between plants herbivores and natural enemies. Plants may directly influence the behaviour of their herbivores' natural enemies ecological interactions between two species are often indirectly mediated by a third species landscape structure directly affects local tritrophic interactions and below-ground food webs are vital to above-ground organisms. The relative importance of top-down effects control by predators and bottom-up effects control by resources must also be determined. These interactions are explored in this exciting volume by expert researchers from a variety of ecological fields. This book provides a much-needed synthesis of multitrophic level interactions and serves as a guide for future research for ecologists of all descriptions. First Edition. Pictorial laminated boards. Very Good. Cambridge University Press Hardcover

Ownership Signature Of Walter B. Goad 1925 - 2000 Who Was A Nuclear Physicist At The Los Alamos National Laboratory. During The 1960S Goad Turned His Attention From Physics To Biology And He Is Best Known For His Contributions To The Founding Of Genbank The Most Widely Used Repository For Dna Sequence Data. At Duke University In 1947 He Began To Work On A Phd In Cosmic Ray Physics Under The Supervision Of Lothar Nordheim. In 1950 Nordheim Was Invited To Come To Los Alamos To Contribute To Ongoing Work On The Hydrogen Bomb. As Nordheim's Student Goad Accompanied Him. Although Goad Was Ostensibly At Los Alamos To Finish His Thesis On Cosmic Rays He Soon Became Involved In The Hydrogen Bomb Work Making Some Important Contributions. After The Successful Test Of The Hydrogen Bomb In 1952 Goad Returned To His Thesis Work Obtaining His Phd In 1953. In The 1950S Goad Continued To Work On Problems Related To Nuclear Physics And Nuclear Weapons; He Would Remain At Los Alamos For The Rest Of His Career. In The 1960S Goad Developed An Increasing Interest In Problems In Biology Especially In The Field Of Molecular Biology. To Develop His Interest In 1964-65 Goad Spent A Sabbatical Year At The University Of Colorado Medical Center In Denver. There He Began To Work On Some Problems In Biology Especially In Collaboration With The Physical Chemist John Cann. By The Early 1970S Goad Was Spending Almost All Of His Time Working On Biological Rather Than Physics Problems. In 1974 Goad Became A Key Member Of The Newly Established T-10 Division Theoretical Biology And Biophysics At Los Alamos. During The 1970S The T-10 Group Became Especially Interested In Protein And Nucleotide Sequences. A Significant Quantity Of Such Sequences Were Only Just Beginning To Become Available At This Time. Goad Assembled A Group Of Young Physicists - Including Temple Smith Myron Stein Mike Waterman William Beyer And Minoru Kanehisa - To Work On Mathematical Problems Involved With Sequence Comparison And Analysis. As Part Of This Effort In 1979 Goad Established The Los Alamos Sequence Database To Collect Nucleotide Sequences That Could Be Used For Analysis. The Los Alamos Sequence Database Was Intended To Be A Pilot Project. Goad Solicited The National Institutes Of Health For Funds To Set Up A Larger And More Permanent Sequence Database. In 1981 The National Institutes Of Health Issued A Competitive Request For Proposals To Establish Such A Data Bank. In 1982 A 5-Year $2 Million Contract To Establish And Operate The Genbank Database Was Awarded To Goad And His Co-Workers At Los Alamos Working Jointly With Bolt Beranek And Newman. Goad's Team At Los Alamos Ran Genbank Between 1982 And 1987. Wikipedia <br/> <br/> Princeton University Press paperback
