Book excerpt: After celebrating her fortieth birthday, Rani Bijan is drawn to the desert and the lifestyle of the mysterious Hopi Indians living in the cliffs of Northeastern Arizona just like their ancestors did. Her mother had fled her birth country of Iran after the brutal murder of Ranis father during the Revolution of 1978. They settled in the high desert of Albuquerque, New Mexico, which was strikingly similar to their Iranian homeland. Rani leaves Albuquerque to work at the United Nations after graduation from the University of New Mexico, but childhood memories of her father and ancient stone tablets smuggled from Iran pull Rani back to the desert where she is tangled in a web of mystery, danger, and intrigue surrounding the death of a transient somehow connected to the prophecies and the stone she carries with her to the desert. Complicating the situation is her attraction to FBI agent Josh Overton that begins to break down the protective wall Rani has built to deal with her childhood trauma. As the wall crumbles, the mystery is solved, and Rani finally understands the prophecies from her faith and their interconnection to the larger global community of faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW'S 10 BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR A major book about the future of the world, blending intellectual and natural history and field reporting into a powerful account of the mass extinction unfolding before our eyes Over the last half a billion years, there have been five mass extinctions, when the diversity of life on earth suddenly and dramatically contracted. Scientists around the world are currently monitoring the sixth extinction, predicted to be the most devastating extinction event since the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs. This time around, the cataclysm is us. In The Sixth Extinction, two-time winner of the National Magazine Award and New Yorker writer Elizabeth Kolbert draws on the work of scores of researchers in half a dozen disciplines, accompanying many of them into the field: geologists who study deep ocean cores, botanists who follow the tree line as it climbs up the Andes, marine biologists who dive off the Great Barrier Reef. She introduces us to a dozen species, some already gone, others facing extinction, including the Panamian golden frog, staghorn coral, the great auk, and the Sumatran rhino. Through these stories, Kolbert provides a moving account of the disappearances occurring all around us and traces the evolution of extinction as concept, from its first articulation by Georges Cuvier in revolutionary Paris up through the present day. The sixth extinction is likely to be mankind's most lasting legacy; as Kolbert observes, it compels us to rethink the fundamental question of what it means to be human.

Book excerpt: The demons and psionics, humans with telepathy and other mental abilities, have the initial advantage during the First Terran War. The traditional humans can barely maintain their ranks. The tide starts to change when humans possessing elemental magic, sorcery, and advanced fighting techniques join the fray. The humans acquire and solidify their advantage when several scores of psionics turn against their brethren and demon allies. The demons retreat before their species confront extinction. Their psionic cohorts have been exiled to the island west of Pangaea. The victorious humans offer the psionic defectors sanctuary on Pangaea. The adept mentalists refuse and sail south, pledging to live their lives isolated from humans, demons, and psionics alike. The Psionians, as the western island's inhabitants have designated themselves, forged a new society from the ashes of their defeat. They created a new psionic power source using leyaEUR"line energies not frequently siphoned by sorcerers and other mystics. The Psionians developed subdesignations so that each citizen of their new island home, Psionia, could broaden their individual identities and contribute to the greater community. SeventyaEUR"five years later, as the Psionians thrive in their new existence independent of nonpsionic humans; Ultimus discovers his father and PsiaEUR"Lord, Maximilius, in a coma. As Cratius, the Master Panacean, tends to Maximilius's cerebral wounds, Ultimus ventures outside the PsiaEUR"Citadel in search of answers. The next day, Ultrina announces to the Psionians that Ultimus had been attacked hours earlier. She added that the body could not be found and the remaining evidence allows for only one conclusion. Sorcerers had assaulted their PsiaEUR"Lord and perhaps terminated her brother's existence. The Psionians, out of grief, rage and anger, agree that Ultrina should lead their people and that a retaliatory strike against Pangaea should be her first act. What does she have in store for Pangaea's sorcerers? Will the humans not adept in magic, sorcery, or other mystic arts share in the sorcerers' suffering? What about the descendants of the psionics who betrayed the Psionians decades ago? Once the incursion commences, will they side with their psionic brethren or, like their ancestors, fight alongside the nonpsionic humans? The answers do not matter. Ultrina made one promise after the sorcerers' assaults upon Maximilius and Ultimus. She would have her revenge.

This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An urgent and illuminating portrait of forest migration, and of the people studying the forests of the past, protecting the forests of the present, and planting the forests of the future. Forests are restless. Any time a tree dies or a new one sprouts, the forest that includes it has shifted. When new trees sprout in the same direction, the whole forest begins to migrate, sometimes at astonishing rates. Today, however, an array of obstacles—humans felling trees by the billions, invasive pests transported through global trade—threaten to overwhelm these vital movements. Worst of all, the climate is changing faster than ever before, and forests are struggling to keep up. A deft blend of science reporting and travel writing, The Journeys of Trees explores the evolving movements of forests by focusing on five trees: giant sequoia, ash, black spruce, Florida torreya, and Monterey pine. Journalist Zach St. George visits these trees in forests across continents, finding sequoias losing their needles in California, fossil records showing the paths of ancient forests in Alaska, domesticated pines in New Zealand, and tender new sprouts of blight-resistant American chestnuts in New Hampshire. Everywhere he goes, St. George meets lively people on conservation’s front lines, from an ecologist studying droughts to an evolutionary evangelist with plans to save a dying species. He treks through the woods with activists, biologists, and foresters, each with their own role to play in the fight for the uncertain future of our environment. An eye-opening investigation into forest migration past and present, The Journeys of Trees examines how we can all help our trees, and our planet, survive and thrive.

This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International in scope, this volume brings together leading and emerging voices working at the intersection of contemporary art, visual culture, activism, and climate change, and addresses key questions, such as: why and how do art and visual culture, and their ethics and values, matter with regard to a world increasingly shaped by climate breakdown? Foregrounding a decolonial and climate-justice-based approach, this book joins efforts within the environmental humanities in seeking to widen considerations of climate change as it intersects with social, political, and cultural realms. It simultaneously expands the nascent branches of ecocritical art history and visual culture, and builds toward the advancement of a robust and critical interdisciplinarity appropriate to the complex entanglements of climate change. This book will be of special interest to scholars and practitioners of contemporary art and visual culture, environmental studies, cultural geography, and political ecology.

Book excerpt: This textbook explains how mountains are formed and why there are old and young mountains. It provides a reconstruction of the Earths paleogeography and shows why the shapes of South America and Africa fit so well together. Furthermore, it explains why the Pacific is surrounded by a ring of volcanos and earthquake-prone areas while the edges of the Atlantic are relatively peaceful. This thoroughly revised textbook edition addresses all these questions and more through the presentation and explanation of the geodynamic processes upon which the theory of continental drift is based and which have led to the concept of plate tectonics. It is a source of information for students of geology, geophysics, geography, geosciences in general, general natural sciences, as well as professionals, and interested layman.
