Soft cover. Condition: New. Procopio, Ruben (illustrator). New condition glossy color illustrated softcover wraps. Includes Acknowledgments; Introduction: Reflections on The Green Hornet by Van Williams; Afterword by Dean Jeffries and Author Biographies. Illustrated with black-and-white drawings. "Moonstone is proud to present The Green Hornet Chronicles, the first anthology featuring all-new, original crime fiction tales of the man who hunts the biggest of all game, public enemies that even the FBI can't reach! It's the mid 1960s, the political climate is shaky, there's civil unrest, freedom and equality issues erupt everywhere from film to music to out in the streets. On police records, The Green Hornet is actually a wanted criminal, a master manipulator, a crime boss who has his fingers in every pie. In reality, The Green Hornet is actually Britt Reid, owner-publisher of the Daily Sentinel. His goal is to destroy crim from within by posing as a criminal himself." - from the rear outer cover.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating geological history of Newfoundland, a large island off the eastern coast of Canada. The author meticulously details the island's diverse rock formations, meticulously classifying them by their geological periods - from the ancient Laurentian era to the Carboniferous period. The text, originally compiled as a series of annual reports, offers a comprehensive overview of Newfoundland's geology, including the locations of key rock formations and the discovery of valuable minerals such as copper and iron ore. The book's descriptions of the various rock types and their formation processes are particularly noteworthy, as they contribute to the understanding of the island's unique landscape, while also highlighting the economic potential of its mineral resources. This book serves as a foundational text for understanding the geological processes that shaped Newfoundland and its mineral wealth. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Issued without a dust jacket. -- Recently, there has been an increased interest in research on personality, temperament, and behavioral syndromes (henceforth to be referred to as personality) in nonhuman primates and other animals. This follows, in part, from a general interest in the subject matter and the realization that individual differences, once consigned to 'error' terms in statistical analyses, are potentially important predictors, moderators, and mediators of a wide variety of outcomes ranging from the results of experiments to health to enrichment programs. Unfortunately, while there is a burgeoning interest in the subject matter, findings have been reported in a diverse number of journals and most of the methodological and statistical approaches were developed in research on human personality. The proposed volume seeks to gather submissions from a variety of specialists in research on individual differences in primate temperament, personality, or behavioral syndromes. We anticipate that chapters will cover several areas. The first part of this edited volume will focus on methodological considerations including the advantages and disadvantages of different means of assessing these constructs in primates and introduce some statistical approaches that have typically been the domain of human personality research. Another part of this edited volume will focus on present findings including the physiological and genetic bases of personality dimensions in primates; the relationship between personality and age; how personality may moderate or impact various outcomes including behavior, health, and well-being in captive and non-captive environments. For the third part of the volume we hope to obtain summaries of the existing work of the authors on the evolutionary important of personality dimensions and guideposts for future directions in this new and exciting area of research. -- Contents: I.
