Put on your warmest parka, grab your time-travel shoes, and get ready to explore the Ice Age! As you step back to a time beginning some 35,000 years ago, you'll not only unearth ancient artifacts and bones and discover incredible works of art, you'll come up with ideas about how our early ancestors might have lived during this fascinating -- and chilly -- period. As you learn more about the Ice Agers' way of life, you may be surprised by how cleverly they solved their problems. They sewed snug clothing and hunted big game, surviving very well in the icy climate! They also played musical instruments and, most remarkably, invented art. Unearth their bones, sift through their trash piles, uncover their tools and hearths, delve into the darkness of their caves, and enter the fascinating world of the Ice Age!
Margaret Cooper, a lifelong New Yorker, has been a member of the exhibition staff at the American Museum of Natural History for more years than she can count using fingers, toes, and both ears. She became an Ice Age enthusiast during preparation of a museum exhibition on Ice Age art and continues to be astonished by the remarkable achievements of people living in that glacial world. Ms. Cooper's interests have led her to write a number of books for young readers, including The Inventions of Leonardo da Vinci. She also originated a young people's magazine, Faces, dealing with past and present peoples, places, and ideas the world over.
Just as a powerful contemporary painting could not be fully appreciated, and indeed disrespected, if hung on patterned wallpaper-----the exception being Warhol's cows-----these jewel/objects deserve the same respect and best appreciation on simple, elegant clothing. Mitchell's The Speculation Economy demonstrates that this is nothing new and the corporate prototypes for Enron and WorldCom became firmly established by the end of the Wilson Administration. This is a real achievement given that action in this book takes place simultaneously to another book in the series, "The Consort." While it is not necessary to read that book, the richness and complexity of the Az-Kye world will be more fully realized if you pick up that book. The anecdotes Atherton relates, whether true or not, carry equal parts humor, tragedy, and madness, as it carries you from training to war to return home through the insanity that was Vietnam. There were times that the book just told too much about her family. Id
