Practical advice and information is included on the selection and care of equipment, and on strategy and tactics. Sequence photos show how to execute various strokes.

The ultimate quest for the world's most mysterious creatures. The Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman -- these are the names of the elusive beasts that have caught the eye and captured the imaginations of people around the world for centuries. Recently, tales of these "monsters" have been corroborated by an increase in sightings, and out of these legends a new science has been born: cryptozoology -- the study of hidden animals. Cryptozoology A to Z, the first encyclopedia of its kind, contains nearly two hundred entries, including cryptids (the name given to these unusual beasts), new animal finds, and the explorers and scientists who search for them. Loren Coleman, one of the world's leading cryptozoologists, teams up with Jerome Clark, editor and author of several encyclopedias, to provide these definitive descriptions and many never-before-published drawings and photographs from eyewitnesses' detailed accounts. Full of insights into the methods of these scientists, exciting tales of discovery, and the history and evolution of this field, Cryptozoology A to Z is the most complete reference ever of the newest zoological science.

Two books in one--and an unmatched resource for electronic circuit designers, technicians, students, and hobbyists worldwide. Not a revision but the latest in the series, this compendium combines the traditional circuit ``cookbook'' with state-of-the-art troubleshooting techniques. Thus it's the only reference that allows readers to build, test, and customize a wealth of useful circuit types. All 600+ pre-designed circuits are new (they do not appear in earlier volumes), and are conveniently grouped by function. While other circuit books present only basic schematics, Lenk's encyclopedias also explain how to put each circuit to work. Moreover, they provide debugging and troubleshooting routines to use when things don't go as planned, making it easy to integrate circuits into existing systems.
