Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comprar edición impresa (la versión actualizada e ilustrada): https://laemboscadura.com/tienda/60-semanas-en-el-tropico/ Una tentativa de huir hacia adelante, una conciencia que bascula de la desolación al júbilo. Un proyecto de trabajo sobre el origen de la pobreza y riqueza en el Sureste asiático… Sesenta semanas en el trópico narra las peripecias durante un año sabático en Tailandia con excursiones a Vietnam, Birmania y Singapur, sobre el quicio preciso que separa la segunda de la tercera edad del autor. En el atardecer de la vida, iluminado por una luz distinta, el corazón aventurero de Escohotado apura hasta los posos de su atrevimiento, y el paisaje de gentes y lugares exóticos acompaña a una pesquisa interior que tocará fondo en otro trópico -el amazónico-, con un brote de introspección y telepatía provocado por brebajes primitivos. Devuelto al origen, la humilde odisea de este libro acaba ofreciendo una respuesta a la pregunta del comienzo -¿qué hace ricos a individuos y grupos?-, y cierra un ciclo del ánimo por precipicios. Catálogo de costumbres ignoradas u olvidadas, conjuro para decisiones que desgarran, boceto de antropología económica, la obra medita sobre dos modos genéricos de entender la vida, que se condensan como «planeta interior” y «planeta exterior». Aislados uno de otro hasta la actual globalización, ahora solo pueden compenetrarse o combatirse. Una sola Tierra para dos tipos de moradores, cada vez menos indiferentes entre sí: un reto inaplazable. Antonio Escohotado aprovecha la reedición de este título -casi 20 años después de su publicación- para retocar la narración de varios pasajes, así como para ilustrar con algunas imágenes su enriquecedora aventura en la tierra de los Thai.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plankton is a group of small organisms that are passively displaced by water, that is, they are dragged by marine tides and currents. Marine plankton, which includes organisms such as protozoa, microalgae, small crustaceans, and jellyfish, play an important role in maintaining the health and balance of the ocean and its complex food chains. Over three sections and eight chapters, this book provides a comprehensive overview of zooplankton and phytoplankton as well as their environmental and economic importance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Picturing Tropical Nature reflects on the work of several nineteenth- and twentieth-century scientists and artists, including Alexander von Humboldt, Alfred Russel Wallace, Louis Agassiz, Sir Patrick Manson, and Margaret Mee. Their careers illuminate several aspects of tropicalization: science and art in the making of tropical pictures; the commercial and cultural boom in things tropical in the modern period; photographic attempts to represent tropical hybrid races; antitropicalism and its role in an emerging environmentalist sensibility; and visual depictions of disease in the new tropical medicine."--Jacket.

Download or read book Tropical Forests and Their Crops written by Nigel J. H. Smith and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tropics are the source of many of our familiar fruits, vegetables, oils, and spice, as well as such commodities as rubber and wood. Moreover, other tropical fruits and vegetables are being introduced into our markets to offer variety to our diet. Now, as tropical forests are increasingly threatened, we face a double-fold crisis: not only the loss of the plants but also rich pools of potentially useful genes. Wild populations of crop plants harbor genes that can improve the productivity and disease resistance of cultivated crops, many of which are vital to developing economies and to global commerce. Eight chapters of this book are devoted to a variety of tropical crops—beverages, fruit, starch, oil, resins, fuelwood, fodder, spices, timber, and nuts—the history of their domestication, their uses today, and the known extent of their gene pools, both domesticated and wild. Drawing on broad research, the authors also consider conservation strategies such as parks and reserves, corporate holdings, gene banks and tissue culture collections, and debt-for-nature swaps. They stress the need for a sensitive balance between conservation and the economic well-being of local populations. If economic growth is part of the conservation effort, local populations and governments will be more strongly motivated to save their natural resources. Distinctly practical and soundly informative, this book provides insight into the overwhelming abundance of tropical forests, an unsettling sense of what we may lose if they are destroyed, and a deep appreciation for the delicate relationships between tropical forest plants and people around the world.
