  • The Lucent Library of Science and Technology - Genetics

    Robert Taylor

    Far more than the discovery of DNA and gene structure, genetics in the twenty-first century is an applied science. Genetics clearly describes both basic scientific principles and how genetics is used in mapping and manipulating the genetic code, engineering and cloning plant and animal species, predicting and curing disease, and fighting crime.

  • The Lucent Library of Science and Technology - Space Stations

    Robert Taylor

    Hardcover (Lucent Books, April 2, 2004)
    Space stations have been the mainstay and "work horses" of the international aerospace industry for the past three decades. They are highly valued as medical laboratories for learning about the effects of space on humans, astronomy platforms for studying distant stars and galaxies, observation posts for viewing and analyzing environmentally sensitive regions on Earth, and springboards for future human travel to a variety of planets within our solar system and possibly beyond. From the early and relatively simple Skylab, Salyut, and Mir to the modern International Space Station, these platforms have been home to many astronauts from many nations investigating scientific phenomena in a microgravity environment 250 miles in space whirling by at 17,000 miles per hour.

  • Bob Taylor's Magazine, Vol. 3: April-September, 1906

    Robert Love Taylor

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, July 1, 2017)
    Excerpt from Bob Taylor's Magazine, Vol. 3: April-September, 1906But 10! When Sir Croesus has gotten it all and sent his victims about their business, he hugs himself and turns to revel in its luxurious pleasures to find the joy of its spending bittered to gall by the memory of the dirty means of its getting, and he laments sorrowfully that he did not give his fellow man a square deal. For a time, and while he is gorging his greed, perhaps the jingling of the guinea helps the hurt that honor feels; but there comes a time when conscience demands a reckoning and he realizes how utterly worse than poor he is since that for which he sold his soul has only served to poison it.The man who pitches his life to the tone of his sordid lusts and believes that money is to be sought for first of all virtue after wealth will find the love of pelf increases with the pelf, and that he has postponed the better purpose to the viler one that makes virtue unattainable after the soul has corroded itself with avarice. He who swaps his virtue off for wealth may find too late he can never rue.There is but one right road to wealth and he who travels it must wade his own sweat. Economy: is the poor man's mint. He who essays another route than this or strays into luring paths where richer fruits tempt him into devious ways, soon finds his feet on slippery places where he must perforce make choice of questionable means to prop and stay him up, when honor begins to lag for a rendezvous with lust, and he pays the price of success with his own virtue.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
