The Perfume Zodiac

"As a companion volume to the ""Book of Perfumes"", ""Perfume Zodiac"" anchors the author's knowledge of perfumes in the realm of the stars.

Many women read their stars - this shows how you can harness that knowledge to the choice of perfume you wear. Many women only ever wear one perfume - but they could experiment more. John Oakes here empowers women to make the choice of perfume based on her astrological sign - and if there is a male partner in mind, based on his sign too. Oakes gives exact profiles of all the astrological signs together with a detailed analysis of each of the perfumes he judges fit the character of the sign. Thus if you are born under the sign of Cancer - then you should be wearing Amarige or Romeo Gigli, because your austere style needs softening with the warmth and persuasiveness of these particular scents - but Oakes goes into a lot more detail, and justifies his selections in many ways.

Java Man: How Two Geologists Changed the History of Human Evolution

"Co-authored by:Roger Lewin, Carl Swisher

With their revolutionary discovery about human origins, a pair of maverick geologist single handedly shook the foundations of science, history, and religion. Here, for the first time, is the inside story.

In much the same way as Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein before them Garniss Curtis and Carl Swisher affected a sea change in human consciousness when their astonishing finding s hit the cover of Time in 1994. Using new techniques for dating fossils, Curtis and Swisher proved that the ""primitive"" Homo erectus actually coexisted with Homo sapiens and was probably not an evolutionary precursor after all. Human ancestors must have left the Cradle of Mankind-the African continent-a million years earlier than experts had believed. And it seems there was no certainty about how or where-or even if at all--Homo sapiensmight evolve.

Java Man is the story of a pair of geologists who wandered innocently into the highly contentious world of anthropology - and caused a major uproar. How did they do it? With his trademark lucid prose and infectious enthusiasm for his subject, renowned popular science writer Roger Lewin takes us on a journey to the Indonesian island of Java, where Curtis and Swisher's discovery was born. Wholly accessible to the lay reader and filled with scientific facts that will intrigue more serious readers, the book reads like the best adventure fiction, recounting the exciting progression of the story while considering its far-reaching implications.

Baby Wars: Parenthood and Family Strife

"Co-authored by: Elizabeth Oram

Focusing on the series of conflicts present between mother and father, between parent and child, and between children, the author follows up the ideas from Sperm Wars, his investigation into the evolutionary biology of conception. Discomfort of pregnancy, child abuse, sibling rivalry, incest, arranged marriage, child fostering, adoption, and the trials of adolescence, are all deviations from the cliched dream of the contented nuclear family. As seen by Baker, all these situations generate their own particular Darwinian benefits and problems. Here he dramatizes these events and then explains the evolutionary biological behaviour of each of the characters. "
