Hardcover. Condizione: Fair. 2006 Springer hardcover edition. Ex library copy with stamps and labels else good condition. From the cover: In this comprehensive volume, written by experts in the field, information gathered on lemur ecology and adaptation over the past 15 years is presented by both seasoned and newer lemur researchers and provides us with further knowledge concerning both well-studied and rarely studied extant species, as well as insights into the ecology and adaptation of some of the recently extinct lemurs. With the dramatic increase in behavioral and ecological studies on a great variety of lemur species in the past few decades, our knowledge concerning the adaptation of these charming primates to Madagascar's unpredictable and sometimes harsh environmental conditions has improved significantly. Lemurs: Ecology and Adaptation will be a useful and fascinating source book for researchers and students of primate ecology.

Autobiography of legendary US Air Force General Curtis E. LeMay. Although without any ownership marks, the book was acquired from the estate of WWII and Korea veteran Colonel Clark Olmsted Thornton, PhD. (1917-2004) of Northport, Alabama which, in turn, provides a provenance of connection via career overlap to General LeMay. Joining the Army Air Corps prior to Pearl Harbor, Thornton saw action in Africa and Europe participating in four WWII airborne invasions including D-Day and served as Air Advisor to 82nd Airborne Division commander Major General James Gavin. Awarded ten major battle stars, five oak leaf clusters, the Belgian Fourragere, the Dutch Lanyard, and a Presidential Citation, Thornton's career included two tours at the Pentagon and staff assignments to the Secretary of Defense as well as the Joint Chiefs of Staff before concluding his thirty-year career as the Professor of Aerospace Studies and head of Air Force ROTC at the University of Alabama. …
