Book Synopsis A Nuclear Winter's Tale by : Lawrence Badash
Download or read book A Nuclear Winter's Tale written by Lawrence Badash and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2009-07-10 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise and fall of the concept of nuclear winter, played out in research activity, public relations, and Reagan-era politics. The nuclear winter phenomenon burst upon the public's consciousness in 1983. Added to the horror of a nuclear war's immediate effects was the fear that the smoke from fires ignited by the explosions would block the sun, creating an extended “winter” that might kill more people worldwide than the initial nuclear strikes. In A Nuclear Winter's Tale, Lawrence Badash maps the rise and fall of the science of nuclear winter, examining research activity, the popularization of the concept, and the Reagan-era politics that combined to influence policy and public opinion. Badash traces the several sciences (including studies of volcanic eruptions, ozone depletion, and dinosaur extinction) that merged to allow computer modeling of nuclear winter and its development as a scientific specialty. He places this in the political context of the Reagan years, discussing congressional interest, media attention, the administration's plans for a research program, and the Defense Department's claims that the arms buildup underway would prevent nuclear war, and thus nuclear winter. A Nuclear Winter's Tale tells an important story but also provides a useful illustration of the complex relationship between science and society. It examines the behavior of scientists in the public arena and in the scientific community, and raises questions about the problems faced by scientific Cassandras, the implications when scientists go public with worst-case scenarios, and the timing of government reaction to startling scientific findings.

Download or read book A Winter's Tale written by Trisha Ashley and published by HarperCollins UK. This book was released on 2008 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sophy Wynter is not your typical Lady of the Manor. When she unexpectedly inherits Wynter's End, a crumbling mansion in the beautiful Lancashire countryside - on the very same day that she is evicted from her home - it seems like all Sophy's prayers have been answered at once. She eagerly swaps life as a housekeeper in favour of having her own team of staff, and relocates from a static caravan to the majestic stately home. But Sophy quickly realises the challenge on her hands - the house is decrepit and its eccentric inhabitants - including two squabbling elderly great aunts, and a highly unconventional cook - are a handful. And once it is discovered that Wynter's End once played host to a young Shakespeare, Sophy's ideas for renovating the beautiful seventeenth century knot gardens run riot. Soon, the entire village of Sticklepond is curious about Sophy's plans for Wynter's End, especially charming and attentive Jack. But is he really smitten by Sophy or her inheritance? Gorgeous head gardener Seth is the strong and silent type. But does his passion bloom for anything beyond the horticultural? Could Wynter's End really be a gift from the gods or will it turn it out to be a real mixed blessing?

Book Synopsis Reading Popular Romance in Early Modern England by : Lori Humphrey Newcomb
Download or read book Reading Popular Romance in Early Modern England written by Lori Humphrey Newcomb and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the proliferation of popular romances, their vilification by elite writers, and the ultimate opposition of "popular" and "literary" fiction. Using Robert Greene's "Pandosto" (1585), an Elizabethan prose romance that inspired Shakespeare's late play "The Winter's Tale" as a case study, Newcomb demonstrates that versions of the two texts repeatedly converge, resisting simple high/low division. Because Shakespeare's works are considered timeless literary achievements, critics have distanced his plays from their romance sources--a separation that until now has gone largely unquestioned. Newcomb challenges this assumption, providing a fascinating account of an early best-seller's incarnations over 250 years of literary history.
