Today's Book Authors Subjects The late Sir John Eccles practically invented the science of the synapse, and in rough outlines he also came close to perfecting it. But basic neurology was not his only profession. If you want to see the difference between a savant and a technician, compare Eccles' urbane arguments with Karl Popper ( The Self and Its Brain ) with the narrowmindedness of R. A. Nicoll's obituary for Eccles in Science (V. 277, no. 5323, 11 July 1997, p 194). Nicoll will never understand why people are so angry; Eccles would have, and so did Maimonides. It could be that today the average undergraduate already knows the main points of the revolutionary discoveries of the 1950s, but this book is still a well organized summary of the neurology of the single neuron, and even more so of the synapse. It is also an example which a layman can understand of real science and real science-publishing.

In the late '60s librarians devised a system by which the traditional library catalog (or database) could be searched by computer. In order for this to happen, the traditional paper card had to be represented in a form the computer could read. This is how the MARC (Machine Readable Cataloging) record was developed. To better understand this, and to make you a better database searcher (whether in a library catalog or on the Internet) you need to understand how a database such as a card catalog is set up. Books are physical objects. Earlier, you read about call numbers and how the call number represents what the book is about and how it gives a book a unique, physical place to reside in a library. The catalog, made up of MARC records, is a representation of the physical book also. This representation consists of such things as the title, the author, the publisher, the date of publication, the number of pages, the subject of the book, etc. When this representation, or description, of the book used to be typed on cards each piece of information appeared on a specific line of the card. This "stylized" representation created ease of use - one always knew wear to look on the card to find the author's name, or the title. This same stylized representation was carried over to the computer, but instead of the information being typed on a specific line, it was entered into a specific "field."

    Extractions: Omslagtekst uitgave H.J. Paris, 1962: Geen enkel onderdeel van de Eerste Wereldoorlog is in belangrijkheid vergelijkbaar met het begin ervan ... het eerste treffen was een drama dat zijn weerga in de geschiedenis nimmer heeft gevonden ... en alles wat daarna gebeurde was niet meer dan een reeks veldslagen, die hoe ontzagwekkend en verwoestend ook slechts een wanhopig en bij voorbaat tot mislukken gedoemd beroep waren tegen de beslissing van het Lot. Winston Churchill Vóór hij in de Tweede Wereldoorlog verwoest werd bevatte de Kapel van St. Cyr, de Militaire Academie van Frankrijk, een lijst met de namen van de oud-studenten, die in de Eerste Wereldoorlog waren gesneuveld. Op één punt houden de afzonderlijke namen op en vermeldt de lijst slechts: de klas van 1914. Het jaar 1914 heeft een verschrikkelijke en nimmer vervagende weerslag gehad op de loop der geschiedenis. De meest schokkende maand van het jaar, augustus 1914, is het onderwerp van dit boek, dat in de maanden sedert zijn eerste verschijnen in Amerika de gehele Engels lezende wereld heeft veroverd en reeds in vrijwel alle belangrijke talen is of wordt uitgegeven.

    Extractions: Historian Barbara Tuchman (1912-1989) Barbara Tuchman The Nation , a magazine owned by her father. Barbara traveled to Spain to cover the Spanish Civil War and supplied articles not only to The Nation , but to several other publications as well. In response to the Loyalists' victory in Spain, which she viewed as the end of the liberal world, Barbara published her first book, The Lost British Policy . Soon after, she married and devoted the next several years to raising her three daughters. Once her children were older, Barbara was free to indulge her love for historical research and published books in 1956 and 1958. But it was 1962's The Guns of August Stilwell and the American Experience in China, 1911-45 , a study of the United States' relationship with 20th-century China. In all, Barbara wrote 11 books, including a lively look at 14th century France, called A Distant Mirror . She understood that the only way to make historical nonfiction readable is to tell it as a story. She once told an audience, "the writer's object should be to hold the reader's attention. I want the reader to turn the page and keep on turning until the end. This is accomplished only when the narrative moves steadily ahead, not when it comes to a weary standstill, overloaded with every item uncovered in the research." Barbara was born on January 30, 1912, and died on February 6, 1989. Books by Barbara Tuchman Subscribe to Women's Stories!

    Extractions: Barbara Tuchman I love history. Tuchman understands those of us who love love history, but aren't historians. She knows the lure of reading about past times and fully imagining life for those who lived then. It's not the facts or dates we want. We want to, for a time, be the person who rode out of Paris to go on a Crusade, and rode past serfs tilling the land, dressed in browns and blacks because they were forbidden to wear bright colors by law. We want to feel the pride of being French, thinking that we could defeat the German army because, we are FRENCH!. But alas, the Germans crush us anyway. What did we feel then?

    Extractions: Barbara W. Tuchman Una visión humana y conmovedora del siglo XIV que repasa simultáneamente la historia íntima de las personas comunes de su época y los grandes acontecimientos históricos del momento. por María Castro En primer lugar una confesión: si no hubiese leido El libro del día del Juicio Final La historiadora nos advierte al principio de la obra de que ocurre con el relato histórico lo mismo que ocurre con los periódicos; sólo lo extraordinario se convierte en noticia y por ello tiene muchas más posibilidades de perdurar, y así es fácil analizar cualquier época histórica como una sucesión de calamidades insoportables que, aunque existieron, probablemente no fueron percibidas por los coetáneos con la abrumadora carga negativa que nosotros hoy les atribuímos. Así, uno inicia la lectura tratando de tener esto presente lo que, a medida que se avanza en la misma, va resultando más y más difícil. El siglo analizado es una época realmente cruel para la humanidad en el lugar en el que la autora centra sus investigaciones, Europa Occidental y, más concretamente, Francia e Inglaterra, en los inicios de su constitución como naciones, inmersas a lo largo de la centuria en un guerra intermitente que pasó a la posteridad como la Guerra de los Cien años. La autora utiliza como hilo conductor la vida de un noble francés, considerado en su época como uno de los más grandes caballeros de Francia y que tuvo un papel notable en la mayor parte de los sucesos que se nos narran. La utilización de Enguerrand VII, señor de Coucy, cumple un doble propósito, acercarnos emocionalmente a los acontecimientos narrados y servir de punto de referencia de una cultura, la caballeresca, propia de la sociedad feudal, que está en la base de una gran parte de los acontecimientos que marcaron el siglo.
