Mary and Elizabeth Kirby were naturalists and gifted illustrators during the Victorian era. The sisters introduced the natural world to women and children through a series of colorful books. At the time, women’s contribution to the sciences was not encouraged, and many times not even acknowledged. Women produced "pretty pictures" of flowers, birds and insects, and these were viewed as "hobbies" by the scientific mainstream despite the technical brilliance and amazing accuracy of the work. Hummingbirds is a volume showcasing the "jewels of the avian world". At a time when

Stereoelectronic effects control the way molecules are put together and account for the "rules of engagement" which operate when molecules meet and react. Understanding these effects is the key to understanding molecular behavior, since the same basic three-dimensional interactions are responsible for both structure and reactivity. This concise and very accessible volume provides a comprehensive, intentionally non-mathematical coverage of stereochemistry, along with an in-depth discussion of the main classes of organic reactions, promoting a logical and simple way of thinking about chemistry.

Few would have believed in the late 1930s that Depression-wracked Marietta and Cobb County, where cotton was still king, would later be the site of the largest industrial complex south of the Mason-Dixon line, or that it would be churning out hundreds of the largest and most technically advanced airplanes ever built to that point. Images of America: The Bell Bomber Plant uses more than 200 photographs to recount how opportunistic local leaders persuaded the federal government to build an airfield in Marietta and then parlayed it into the plant. It tells the story of how a workforce of underedu
