Book excerpt: From Robert Charles Wilson, the Hugo Award-winning author of Spin, comes Julian Comstock, an exuberant adventure in a post-climate-change America. In the reign of President Deklan Comstock, a reborn United States is struggling back to prosperity. Over a century after the Efflorescence of Oil, after the Fall of the Cities, after the False Tribulation, after the days of the Pious Presidents, the sixty stars and thirteen stripes wave from the plains of Athabaska to the national capital in New York. In Colorado Springs, the Dominion sees to the nation's spiritual needs. In Labrador, the Army wages war on the Dutch. America, unified, is rising once again. Then out of Labrador come tales of the war hero "Captain Commongold." The masses follow his adventures in the popular press. The Army adores him. The President is...troubled. Especially when the dashing Captain turns out to be his nephew Julian, son of the President's late brother Bryceâa popular general who challenged the President's power, and paid the ultimate price. As Julian ascends to the pinnacle of power, his admiration for the works of the Secular Ancients sets him at fatal odds with the Dominion. Treachery and intrigue will dog him as he closes in on the accomplishment of his lifelong ambition: to make a film about the life of Charles Darwin.

It will become your GO-TO reference book for health for many years to come. In the 21st century we have vast and growing populations with immense, ever-evolving knowledge at hand. Yet, we are beholden to self-indulgent lifestyles, social oppression, out-of-control diseases, chemicals and pollution that threaten our lives… and foods that do not nourish our bodies... But still, there is great hope. Together we can build a contemporary structure for personalized self-care. Piece by piece, we can develop a skillset that encompasses current and historical understandings of the many components needed to create a new model for optimum human wellness. Most of us simply don’t need to be sick or overweight. We never did! The name Chrysona was given to the author decades ago by a spiritual master, and to go with such a unique name she offers her highly unconventional life and esoteric point of view to the world. She hopes to inspire her readers to put aside what they think they know for a few hours… and open their hearts and minds to the infinite possibilities of the 21st century and beyond. Chrysona asks: Is there any limit to how far we can go in optimizing our minds, bodies, spiritual connection and emotions?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the industrial revolution and coal mining in the 19th century followed by oil and gas drilling in the 20th century, massive CO2 emissions are responsible for global warming and rising sea levels, which will continue until political and industrial energy decision-makers put in place effective energy transition solutions. In the meantime, younger generations are worried and some even suffer from climate eco-anxiety. This book gives examples of simulated coastal submersion, based on selected examples in the North Sea, the Mediterranean, the English Channel, the Atlantic, and on islands in the Caribbean, the Pacific and the Indian Oceans. Then, to reassure the generations of the 22nd century, this book explains the energy transition, the advantages of green hydrogen in particular, low-carbon architecture, carbon neutrality for large cities and biomimicry. Finally, it proposes solutions for the adaptation of existing coastal settlement, as well as for the construction of new types of housing on stilts and/or floating, for CO2 capture, the adaptation of port infrastructures, multi-purpose offshore platform designs, and floating cities. It is to help today's youth that this book was written, so that future generations don't need to be afraid of the sea; instead of running away, they can continue to live on the coast. Full of illustrations, it includes 73 colour pages presenting 40 maps, 62 photos and 26 graphs or 3D sketches.

Book Synopsis The Palgrave Handbook of Global Politics in the 22nd Century by : Laura Horn
Download or read book The Palgrave Handbook of Global Politics in the 22nd Century written by Laura Horn and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook offers a unique approach to the question: How do scholars write the future of global politics? Written in futur antérieur style, around the 200-year anniversary of the birth of International Relations (IR) as an academic discipline, the contributions engage in world-building and imagine different futures of IR. Set in a multiverse, 23 chapters draw on a range of possible themes and imaginaries, for instance post-pandemic conditions, the Anthropocene, and not least academic practices and the role of researchers. A concluding chapter anchors these explorations in contemporary discussions. The book mirrors the format and style of existing handbooks, combining outlines and discussions of theories, structures, processes, and core issues in IR with an academic science fiction account of how these might play out over the course of the next century. In doing so, the book challenges IR and provides alternative imaginaries, rather than predicting future conditions for all humanity. The book invites readers to reflect on how thinking about the future has become an increasingly radical, but more than ever necessary act.

Olga Ravn’s prose is chilling, crackling, exhilarating, and foreboding. The Employees probes into what makes us human, while delivering a hilariously stinging critique of life governed by the logic of productivity. It was shortlisted for the the Ursula K. Le Guin Prize.

Download or read book Ecotourism written by Stephen Wearing and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition of the title, ecotourism has become a major phenomenon in tourism and society in many countries and regions throughout the world. The profusion of experiences has generated a variety of means of theorizing, analysing and marketing ecotourism, all that have yet to be encompassed in one book. Ecotourism fills the gap by synthesising the changes in thinking and society over the last decade. This third edition has been fully revised and updated to include: updated chapters addressing modern thought and discourse, including neoliberalism, consumer culture and quality management in the ecotourism industry; critical analysis drawn from a range of theoretical frameworks, which models and advances the thinking in ecotourism towards a socio-geographical analysis; new and international case studies from emerging markets such as China and Brazil. Providing a critical introduction to the analysis of tourism from a sociological and geographical perspective, the title is essential reading for higher-level and graduate students and researchers in tourism, sociology and geography. It will also be of interest to environmental groups and practitioners.
Book Synopsis Lame Fate | Ugly Swans by : Arkady Strugatsky
Download or read book Lame Fate | Ugly Swans written by Arkady Strugatsky and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, Arkady and Boris Strugatsky are counted among the best science fiction writers of the twentieth century, but their relationship with the late-Soviet literary establishment in their home country of Russia was often fraught. Acclaimed during the brief Khrushchev Thaw, the Strugatskys began to fall from grace in the late 1960s as publishers became increasingly reluctant to release their works. The authors' inability to publish, however, diminished neither their productivity nor their popularity among readers. Their novels and short stories, retyped by hand, circulated widely through unofficial channels within the Soviet Union and occasionally turned up abroad in unauthorized translation. The nested novels Ugly Swans and Lame Fate offer insight into this period of enforced silence. Never before translated into English, Lame Fate is the first-person account of middle-aged author Felix Sorokin. When the Soviet Writers' Union asks him to submit a writing sample to a newfangled machine that can supposedly evaluate the "objective value" of any literary work, he faces a dilemma. Should he present something establishment-approved but middling, or risk sharing his unpublished masterpiece, which has languished in his desk drawer for years? Sorokin's masterwork is Ugly Swans, previously published in English as a standalone work but presented here in an authoritative new translation. Ugly Swans chronicles the travails of disgraced literary celebrity Victor Banev, who returns to his provincial hometown to find it haunted by the mysterious clammies—black-masked men residing in a former leper colony. Possessing supernatural talents, including the ability to control the weather, the clammies terrify the town's adult population but enthrall its teenagers, including Banev's daughter Irma. Together, Lame Fate and Ugly Swans illuminate some of the Strugatskys' favorite themes—the (im)possibility of political progress, the role of the individual in society, the nature of honor and courage, and the enduring value of art—in consummately entertaining fashion. By turns chilling, uproarious and moving, these intertwining stories are sure to delight readers from all walks of life.

Book Synopsis The Inhabited Island by : Arkady Strugatsky
Download or read book The Inhabited Island written by Arkady Strugatsky and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2020-02-04 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Maxim Kammerer, a young space explorer from twenty-second-century Earth, crash-lands on an uncharted world, he thinks of himself as a latter-day Robinson Crusoe. Eager to establish first contact with the planet's humanlike inhabitants, he finds himself increasingly entangled in their primitive way of life. After his experiences in their nightmarish military, criminal justice, and mental health systems, Maxim begins to realize that his sojourn on this radioactive and war-scarred world will not be a walk in the park. The Inhabited Island is one of the Strugatsky brothers' most popular and acclaimed novels, yet the only previous English-language edition (Prisoners of Power) was based on a version heavily censored by Soviet authorities. Now, in a sparkling new edition by award-winning translator Andrew Bromfield, this land-mark novel can be newly appreciated by both longtime Strugatsky fans and new explorers of the Russian science fiction masters' astonishingly rich body of work.
