They ate meat very rarely. However, their diet was totally made up of roots, spices, nuts, vegetables and fruit. According to their knowledge, this was the way in which they could ensure good health, absence of diseases and also promote longevity. Nevertheless, it is a sad thing that in the 21st century, not many of us know how to eat fruit properly. Yes, there is a method of eating fruit in order to gain the proper benefits of fruit. In ancient times, people also knew the rules went to eat fruit in which season and under what circumstances and in which amounts. That was to prevent people from gorging on fruit. This was a natural reaction, especially when they were extremely hungry and suddenly found themselves confronted with trees and trees of fruit ready to be picked and eaten. In ancient times, it was said that any fruit which belonged to one particular season had to be eaten in that season itself. That was because nature had made it to benefit the human body, only in that season. That is why seasonal fruits in tropical areas like mangoes, melons, guavas, and cantaloupes grew only in the summer so that they could provide human beings with refreshment as well as plenty of water content which they needed in the summer.

Table of Contents Introduction Keeping up with the Joneses Psychological Implications of Peer Pressure Inculcating Moral Values Competition Repercussions of Peer Pressure Channelizing Competitiveness Interaction with Peers Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction This book is going to give you an introduction to peer pressure and what a great influence it has upon our lives. It has a number of anecdotes and real-life incidents related to my family, my classmates, and my colleagues. All of the incidents are real, even though they may seem very weird, and over the top! But that is what real life is like, most of the time! This book also has lots of inside knowledge about how peer pressure can influence you, and perhaps set the path on how you are going to behave for the rest of your life. For millenniums, man being a social animal has always felt an instinctive need to "fit in" with his comrades and the people around him. He would prefer being ordinary and run of the mill, as long as his friends, relatives and acquaintances accept him as one of them. However, any unusual behavior is going to isolate him from them. So this instinctive need to fit in with the crowd, will make a person get influenced by a group, individuals, or observers. This influence is going to be exerted on you consciously or subconsciously. It means that you are going to change your behavior, value, and even attitude in order to conform to your peer groups or to fit in with society. This sort of conforming begins in childhood itself. Just imagine a little child looking at another child's clothes in the park or in the playground. He is too little to understand the meaning of possession but he thinks that he does not have something which the other child has. So he tells his parents that he wants that item.

Table of Contents Introduction Planning Your Vegetable Garden Ground Preparation Transplantation Related to Seeds Collecting Seeds Length of Preservation Traditional Testing of Seed Age Soaking Seeds before Sowing Getting Ready for Sowing Seed Sowing Seed Sowing - Wet Soil or Dry Soil Shades Planting Outdoors Appendix Root Pruning Trenching Traditional Quick Composting Formula Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction Since ancient times, dietitians knew all about the value of vegetables in human diet. The absence of fresh vegetables would result in ill health, as well as the lack of body resistance, and future healthy growth. Vegetables furnish nourishment in the shape of starch and sugar. They also stimulate intestinal activity. The term vegetables has through common consent down the ages, come to be applied to a particular class of plants. We eat the leaves, buds, stems, and occasionally the fruits of these particular plants. So if you say "is the tomato a vegetable or a fruit," the answer is the tomato is botanically a fruit, but we use the tomato as we use other members of the vegetables class. Fruits are very sugary and vegetables are not. Vegetables are on the whole short term plants, but allow for repeated sowings to prolong the season of growth. Down the ages, vegetables have been grown by householders in patches of land around their houses for home consumption. People with large gardens also had their own vegetable patches and herb patches. So this book is for all of those people who are interested in growing vegetables in their own back yard and using every inch of land in a sustainable fashion. The tips and techniques given here may look so very old-fashioned, but they are tried and tested. That is because we believe in organic gardening where we are not going to be using chemical fertilizers and chemical pesticides to protect our vegetables. Even though the methods given here may be called old school by 21st century gardeners, they have been in use throughout the world for millenniums and they have been giving time-tested results. So let us look at the easy ways in which we can begin preliminaries in vegetable gardening, in our own backyard.

Unfortunately, only a few of them make it to the top trusted list when there's time for a reality check. If the top charts are examined closely, any one could easily see that every approach that does make it to the top is something along the lines of "Lift Progressively Higher Weights and Eat Periodically". Gym goers, as well as natural enthusiasts, have been too concerned with the tiny details of muscle building like insulin regulation, carbohydrates source, timing, muscle synthesis, and what not. All these signs and details are only vacillations that prevent them from admitting the truth behind their lack of commitment and technique. Thus, to save you from all this, this book will now explain the specific science behind muscle building, so that you'll know exactly how the body works and what must be done to accomplish muscle growth. The book will tell you about "Muscle Hypertrophy"; read on and find out about this audibly heavy phrase!

Plant Propagation and Germination Seed propagation Plant Propagation through Cuttings Layer Propagation Division Propagation Grafting and Budding Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction Decorations made of flowers have been an integral part of mankind's social, cultural, and traditional traditions, down the ages. There is absolutely no civilization anywhere in the world, which did not use flowers in some form or the other, in the shape of foliage and blossoms for religious rituals as well as personal adornment. The goddess of flowers has been worshiped in different forms by every ancient civilization in the East and in the West for centuries. Festivals were held every spring in her honor, where everyone did honor to her with garlands of flowers and other flower decorations. In ancient times, especially in Rome, there were floral games known as Floralia, where the people rejoiced in the coming of spring with flowers. Everyone had to take part in the celebrations, from Caesar to the lowest citizen, because it was a celebration of nature and joy. This supposedly pagan and heathen-ish ritual came down the ages as the Maypole celebrations, and in medieval times, everybody went May-ing. When I was a child, we danced around to the floral and ribbon decorated Maypole on the first of May, every child holding a ribbon and dancing to the music, and this was one of the highlights of our year. This ritual/practiced is of course one which was practiced in some form millenniums ago. And these fragrant and bright colored flowers have been part and parcel of human lives since prehistoric times. I know a lady who cannot pass a Jasmine, hibiscus, poinsettia, or rose without plucking a flower and tucking it into her hair. If I had seen this action as an adult and if I was in a bad mood I would have thought it as a typical piece of feminine coquetry, but since I was a child, I have lived in lands, where it was natural to pluck a flower and either place it in your hair, or in a buttonhole.

The condition usually comes without any signs or warnings and a person can be prone to it for years without even knowing about its presence. But, its apparent invisibility does not mean that it sits quietly within one's body; while a person is unaware of it, it wreaks havoc within one's body and damages multiple organs. Blood pressure, as will be explained in great detail later, is the force that the blood applies on the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps blood in the body. The pressure by which the blood flows can rise or fall, but if it remains high for a long period of time it can start damaging the body. The condition is loosely known as High Blood Pressure. Knowing your blood pressure numbers is vital, as well as, necessary even if you feel nothing's going wrong. If your blood pressure is normal, no need to worry, but if it is reaching an abnormal level, you may require treatment.

That is when they began to grow food, instead of searching for it and handing it down. Then came the knowledge and understanding of the seasons, which would appear periodically, as a natural part of life and nature. So after spring, summer and autumn, came the harsh winter, when they might have found them snowbound, depending on the area in which they lived. And so the irresponsible and elders of the tribe, decided that there should be some method in which the food collected during the spring and summer could be preserved for use in the winter. And so down the ages, many processes, including using salt to preserve food came into existence. Apart from making jams, jellies, and chutneys, preserving fruit and vegetables, fresh from the garden in salt, or in brine or in vinegars, syrups and oil became a tradition of everyday life. Up to the 19th century, a housewife - who was only interested in caring about her family and household, instead of getting sidetracked with careers and trying to juggle both of them at the same time - could concentrate on preserving the harvest. So, East or West, here are some traditional ways and means in which you can preserve food for winter use.

There are a number of manmade technologies that we are now dependent upon. In many cases, our survival has become impossible without the presence of these human technologies. Our lives have become robotic like science fiction movies. There is a gadget for every activity and function. There are times in everyone's lives where we want to have a reprieve from these gadgets and technological wonders. This is when people rush towards the great wilderness and outdoors where the living is still natural and untouched by human evolution. You do not rely on utility services and manmade resources out in nature. There are many people in the world who want adopt this way of living in the natural habitat for their entire lives.

That is why the wise men of many ancient civilizations decided that the best way in which to get to gardeners and farmers to use healthy cultivating processes with a scientific basis was to make the ritual of it. That is why in ancient times, the sowing Festival was a yearly tradition. Before that the land had to be prepared. This preparation time could be anywhere between 3 to 5 months beforehand. It had to be dug up and the soil made crumbly and friable. Weeds and big rocks had to be removed from the land. And after that, the land had to be fertilized with organic manure. This manure could either be fish manure, cattle manure or poultry manure.

Pterosaurs - The Flying Reptiles Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1: Appearance Chapter 2: Behavior Chapter 3: Environment Conclusion Author Bio Introduction Salutations young reader! Today we are going to take a step back in time and enter the age of the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs are an extinct species of animal that began to live on the Earth over 200 million years ago. "Extinct" means that they no longer exist. The dinosaurs are some of the most intriguing and awe-inspiring animals that have existed on our planet. The dinosaurs' colossal size, strange characteristics, and mysterious disappearance make them inherently worthy of study and interest. Even more than these reasons, the study of dinosaurs itself is an incredible adventure which requires thought and imagination. The study of dinosaurs helps you to appreciate just how mysterious life really is. Our planet supports not only us and the animals that live today, but it even supported creatures as gigantic and strange as the dinosaurs- just think how cool that is! I hope that you bring a spirit of openness and wonder to your reading, and that you come to appreciate the mystery and value of the dinosaurs. In this book we are going to learn about the Pterosaurs! The Pterosaurs were winged, flying reptiles which lived during the age of the dinosaurs. The pterosaurs are not considered dinosaurs by scientists, but reptiles. We are going to learn about these winged creatures, where and when they lived, and their relationship with the creatures they lived with. The pterosaurs are often mistakenly called "pterodactyls" but the Pterodactyl is actually just a species of Pterosaur. The Pterosaurs included many species of flying reptiles which ranged considerably in size; from the size of a sparrow to the size of an airplane.

Table of Contents Introduction Cocooning and Spoiling Faulty Child-Rearing Practices Impatient and Restless Parents Critical Parents Bargaining Parents Resentful Parents Indulgent Parents Inconsistent Parents Child Rearing Tips Enjoying Your Child's Company Teaching Kids to Fend for Themselves Making Simple Rules Frustration Tolerance Conclusion Appendix Author Bio Publisher Introduction How many times in your life have you come across children, who are quite capable of throwing tantrums when their slightest wish is not fulfilled immediately? Just imagine a mother panicking, because she is just going back home from the office, and she has forgotten to bring some chocolate ice cream for her kids. She knows what she is going to meet when she enters her house. Tear fests, tantrums, whining and complaining. This is when parenting turns out to be not a pleasure, but a pain. Many parents do not know the best level headed approach to bringing up kids without spoiling them. Why is the reason why parents begin to dread facing their children as they are going to make their lives a living hell when they are told that they are not going to get the things that they expect their parents to bring them? In the eyes of the neighbors and the teachers, that particular child is such a perfectly behaved little angel, but the moment their parents have to deal with her or him, he turns out to be a little devil incarnate. This child is stubborn, and difficult to handle. He cries at regular intervals. He throws temper tantrums. He disobeys instructions. In fact, he is going the right way in becoming a menace to society and the people around him. This book is for all those parents who want to know how to bring up their children as future well balanced, sensible, mature, and responsible young adults. If you recognize any child in your vicinity having such loud temper tantrums regularly, or you think that this scene is familiar in your own family, it is time you sit back and pay a bit of attention. Are you afraid of coming back into your own house, because you know that there is going to be a World War III taking place there just because of your little ones does the thought of dealing with your angry child make you feel upset and uncertain? And most of all, are you feeling guilty and helpless just thinking why your child is behaving the way he or she is, in spite of your best efforts to check or discipline him/her? Nobody wants a spoiled brat. But many of these brats become spoiled, just because their parents have allowed them to get away figuratively with murder from day one. Nowadays, I am sorry to say, that many parents think that it is the children who should be in control. A child has say in questioning the way in which he is brought up, and can call the police in if his parents day to admonish him or discipline him or even call him a greedy little pig. This is an absurd state of society or of your environment. I read a book in which her mother was so immature and helpless, that her 11-year-old daughter had to make the decisions for her mother who could not be bothered. The child had to take care of finances and money matters, because the mother was still living in her world, where her parents treated her like a little doll and a little princess from day go. After she got married, this burden was shifted on her child! A child is not an adult. A child is not a decision-maker. A child needs to be taught right from wrong. It is the duty of the parent to teach a child not to expect things beyond reasonable limits.

Belief, What Is It? Or The Nature Of Faith As Determined By The Facts Of Human Nature And Sacred History (1869) is a philosophical and theological treatise written by John Davidson. In this book, Davidson explores the nature of belief and faith, examining how they are shaped by both human nature and religious history. He argues that belief is a fundamental aspect of human experience, and that it is shaped by a complex interplay of factors such as culture, upbringing, and personal experience. Davidson also examines the role of faith in religious traditions, arguing that it is a necessary component of religious experience but that it must be grounded in reason and evidence. Throughout the book, Davidson draws on a wide range of sources, including psychology, anthropology, and religious texts, to build a comprehensive understanding of belief and faith. Ultimately, Belief, What Is It? Or The Nature Of Faith As Determined By The Facts Of Human Nature And Sacred History is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of belief and faith, and its relevance to human experience and religious practice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

The Beginner's Guide to Indoor and Miniature Gardens Understanding Indoor Gardens, Moss Gardens, Miniature Gardens and Gardens in a Bottle Table of Contents Introduction Necessary Tools for Bottle Gardening Best Plants for Bottle Gardening. Small Plant Gardens Pot et Fleur Making A Moss Garden Knowing More about Moss. Growing Plants from Pips Exotic gardening - Pineapple Tops Miniature Gardens Trees Other Popular Tiny Plants Taking Care of Your Miniature Garden Bulbs for Your Garden Selecting the Right Bulbs Planting Your Bulbs. Planting Hyacinth and Crocus Corms Bulb Fiber - Tips Newspaper Compost "Plunging" Bulbs. Growing Bulbs on Water. Methods of Water Cultivation. Bulb Failure Best Bulbs Choices Conclusion Author Bio Introduction The first time I saw a miniature garden growing in a bottle, my immediate response was "but how did the plants get into the bottle?" Naturally, this amused the gardener very much, and for those people who are not into the secret of how the plants got into the bottle, this feat can only be on par with how did a model ship get into the bottle! A garden in a bottle has about the same sort of fascination and requires almost that same amount offered dexterity and ingenuity to construct as a ship in the bottle. It is also going to need a lot of patience, because after all, you are gardening in limited space. But once your water garden is established, it can be left for months without attention. In many cases, depending on your plans, it may also not need watering. So for all those people who have been really fascinated with this conversation piece, when you see people surrounding a glass bottle with beautiful plants growing in it, here is the beginner's guide to indoor gardening in a bottle. More than 200 years ago, a London physician named that Nathaniel Ward discovered that mosses, as well as ferns, which never grew satisfactorily in a city full of industrial fumes flourished if they were grown in the protection of a glass sided case. Thanks to his experiments, bottle Gardens developed in Europe, and since then, they have been the rage all over the world for people who are strapped for place, are looking for a new hobby, and also want to achieve something wonderful. You can use any large bottle. But the bottle has to be made of glass! Carboy glass bottles are normally made for brewing beer, so if you can get them cheap at a nursery nearby, please do so. A 5 gallon carboy bottle is going for around USD 48 on eBay USA, but as my gardening books always suggest, follow and advocate minimum of expense and minimum of fuss, you may want to spend some time asking around in your circle of friends and neighbors for large glass bottles, which is they can spare you. I have seen some of these bottles kept away in garages, because once upon a time, they were used and the owner does not have any use for them at the moment. He may not want them for another 20 years, either. Please do buy the bottles from your friends! Otherwise, a long-lasting friendship can get into jeopardy, when carelessly spoken words of half jesting "Well, he borrowed that bottle from me and what a mess he has made in it." could cause subconscious rancor and ill will. That is of course if he is not interested in gardening! If he is a gardener, he is going to demand his bottle back - along with your bottle garden, - five years down the line! You may want to tell him the purpose for this gardening experiment. It is possible he may also want to give you some suggestions about plants based on his experience.

There was a time, when people had large open areas just outside their door steps in the town, or in the "country", and all they had to do was fence it off and try to tame it. But as more and more people started migrating to cities, the available space for gardening began to be lessened. That was because concrete jungles came up, where once we had green fields. Suburbs on the outskirts of cities still had lots of land where gardens could grow, but for all those living uptown downtown and Midtown in Flats or in closed blocks, limited spaces and detached and semi-detached houses, one had to make do with imaginative and constructive ideas, with which they could still be in touch with greenery around them. Boxes and plant containers on windowsills have been a part of city gardening. You as a city gardener know that you have just limited resources in terms of space. That is why you have been to know how to adapt these limited resources to gain the satisfactory end you desire - that to have a garden in your house, or just outside your window sill, or in a room, or in your backyard. People are afraid to experiment in looking at all the options open to them, when they want to make a city garden in limited space. So they keep to potted geraniums, some sad looking chrysanthemums and other seasonal flowering plants, and possibly a little creeper. On the other hand, if you have been brought up in the country, and have spent a major portion of your life surrounded by plants, it is possible that you are instinctively going to have a knowledge of plants and their needs. And you are going to bring this knowledge along with you to the city. This knowledge does not come innately - you need to be surrounded by gardeners. Also, trial and error on your part and advice from experienced experts who in their time have tried and erred and then imparted that knowledge to you for your benefit, is going to help you make a really nice city garden. This book is for all those beginners who are dreaming of their own garden in which to relax and also for experienced gardeners, who want some extra tips and techniques with which they can improve their gardens.
