Book Description
In recent years there has been a movement to break down old disciplinary boundaries in the geosciences to develop a more unified view of the earth as an integrated system, but efforts to integrate solid earth and climate studies have not progressed as rapidly as other areas. Responding to this deficiency, this volume provides an in-depth examination of climate modeling--an area which can benefit enormously from the interaction between solid earth geophysical studies and climate studies. Written by eminent figures from both disciplines, this volume focuses on the role of tectonic boundary conditions for paleoclimate reconstructions. Chapters present background material on the impact of tectonic changes on climate, as well as the uncertainties in tectonic boundary conditions, such as positions of continents, height of mountains, depth of sea floor, among others.
Book Description
The Workshop Physics Activity Guide is a set of student workbooks designed to serve as the foundation for a two-semester calculus-based introductory physics course. It consists of 28 units that interweave text materials with activities that include prediction, qualitative observation, explanation, equation derivation, mathematical modeling, quantitative experiments, and problem solving. Students use a powerful set of computer tools to record, display, and analyze data, as well as to develop mathematical models of physical phenomena. The design of many of the activities is based on the outcomes of physics education research.
Book Description
Readers who fell in love with Precious Ramotswe, proprietor of The No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency, now have new cause for celebration in the protagonist of these three light-footed comic novels by Alexander McCall Smith. Welcome to the insane and rarified world of Professor Dr. Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld of the Institute of Romance Philology. Von Igelfeld is engaged in a never-ending quest to win the respect he feels certain he is due–a quest which has the tendency to go hilariously astray.
In
The Finer Points of Sausage Dogs, Professor Dr. Von Igelfeld is mistaken for a veterinarian and not wanting to call attention to the faux pas, begins practicing veterinary medicine without a license. He ends up operating on a friend’s dachshund to dramatic and unfortunate effect. He also transports relics for a schismatically challenged Coptic prelate, and is pursued by marriage-minded widows on board a Mediterranean cruise ship.
Customer Reviews:
LOVED IT!.......2007-09-18
McCall Smith's character The Professor Dr. Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld is up to his shameless behavior once again! McCall Smith's books are always fun and entertaining reads.
Acquiring a taste for Professor Dr. Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld of the Institute of Romance Philology.......2007-04-23
This book was my introduction to the wry, dry humour of Alexander McCall Smith. Professor Dr. Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld of the Institute of Romance Philology is perhaps an acquired taste. Some readers will appreciate the humour, others will not enjoy it and some will not recognise it for humour at all.
Of the three books in this trilogy, I enjoyed this one the best. For me, this was 'laugh out loud' humour and I expect those around me were grateful when I resumed more serious lunchtime reading.
A recommended light-hearted read.
Jennifer Cameron-Smith
A quaint and readable book.......2007-03-18
After having read all of McCall's Ladies Detective Agency books, I was definitely not disappointed in "Sausage Dogs". There are moments when you can't help laughing out loud. While being somewhat frivolous, it still manages to present the vulnerable side of human nature. A quick and most enjoyable read. I look forward to reading more of this series.
Disappointing.......2007-01-04
The title story is amusing enough, but after that, the "adventures" of Professor von Igelfeld are pretty tedious.
Not what I expected.......2006-12-11
I have read all of Smith's #1 Ladies Detective Agency series and loved every one. This is not of the same quality. Not very interesting and took effort to read it to the end. Will wait anxiously for more in the #1 Ladies series.
Customer Reviews:
Witty, Dark humor, superbly done! .......2005-12-22
Very, very few books make me laugh out loud. This book did. Professor von Igelfield is a great character who isn't above misrepresenting himself in tight situations.
Through one such situation he ends up operating on a colleague's Dachsund sausage dog. Tragically, through a series of errors, three of the poor dog's legs end up amputated: "An elaborate harness was secured round the dog's body and attached to this were three small wheels. By using its remaining leg as a paddle, the dog could propel itself on its wheels and get anywhere it wished to get. Only very occasionally did the system not work, as had happened once or twice on a hill, when the dog had got out of control and careered down the pavement on its tiny wheels, unable to stop itself, and had ended up on a lawn or in a bush." Thus a feud starts between Dr. von Igelfield and his colleague over the unfortunate state of the dog. A great and fun book that I highly recommend.

Great Narration, Above Average Content.......2006-12-22
This is my first experience with this author, and it was a pleasant one. The narrator of this audiobook was extremely skilled. I felt the book started out strong, and then dropped considerably. Still worth a listen if you enjoy dry humor, but not a terribly good pay off. Worth a library loan, not a purchase.
Delightfully Clever. A great listen for longish trips........2005-08-30
I really enjoyed listening to this book. It was farce like without being too cartoonish. The twists were always a little surprising and overall broken into chunks that were easy to swallow.

Product Description
Readers who fell in love with Precious Ramotswe, proprietor of The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, now have new cause for celebration in the protagonist of these three light-footed comic novels by Alexander McCall Smith. Welcome to the insane and rarified world of Professor Dr. Moritz-Maria von Igelfeld of the Institute of Romance Philology. Von Igelfeld is engaged in a never-ending quest to win the respect he feels certain he is duea quest which has the tendency to go hilariously astray.
In Portuguese Irregular Verbs, Professor Dr von Igelfeld learns to play tennis, and forces a college chum to enter into a duel that results in a nipped nose. He also takes a field trip to Ireland where he becomes acquainted with the rich world of archaic Irishisms, and he develops an aching infatuation with a Dentist fatale. Along the way, he takes two ill-fated Italian sojourns, the first merely uncomfortable, the second definitely dangerous.
In The Finer Points of Sausage Dogs, Professor Dr. Von Igelfeld is mistaken for a veterinarian and not wanting to call attention to the faux pas, begins practicing veterinary medicine without a license. He ends up operating on a friends dachshund to dramatic and unfortunate effect. He also transports relics for a schismatically challenged Coptic prelate, and is pursued by marriage-minded widows on board a Mediterranean cruise ship.
In At the Villa of Reduced Circumstances, Professor Dr. von Igelfeld gets caught up in a nasty case of academic intrigue while on sabbatical at Cambridge. When he returns to Regensburg he is confronted with the thrilling news that someone from a foreign embassy has actually checked his masterwork, Portuguese Irregular Verbs, out of the Institutes Library. As a result, he gets caught up in intrigue of a different sort on a visit to Bogota, Colombia.
