Synopsis

Rust, the common name for iron oxide, silently costs the global economy billions annually. "The Rust Process" explores this pervasive phenomenon, detailing the electrochemical process of oxidation where iron interacts with oxygen and moisture, and analyzing the macroscopic effects of rust, including structural failures.

 
The book examines rust prevention strategies, from protective coatings to corrosion inhibitors, and their implementation across industries. The book provides a comprehensive understanding of rust mechanisms, crucial for developing effective prevention strategies. It presents case studies of structural failures and explores the economic burden rust imposes. Did you know that the effects of corrosion have been recognized since the Iron Age?

 
The book methodically progresses from introducing chemical principles and the history of rust prevention to specific factors that accelerate rust, such as humidity and pollutants. "The Rust Process" takes a holistic approach, combining scientific rigor with practical applications. It moves from traditional methods like painting to advanced technologies like cathodic protection. It is a resource for engineers, architects, and students looking to understand and combat the damaging effects of rust in infrastructure and materials.

A Pagan Polemic - Reflections on...

Jack Loeffler

A Pagan Polemic curates the evolving perspective of Jack Loeffler—itinerant wanderer, environmental warrior, storyteller, and story collector—whose true education began when he was marched into the Nevada desert one day at dawn to play "The Stars and Stripes Forever" during an atomic bomb test a scant few miles away. Since that day in 1957, Jack's mission in life has been to record peoples of the borderlands and to bring "indigenous mindedness" to the forefront of the conversation about our precarious environments and our decaying planet. A Pagan Polemic is a sweeping manifesto of Jack's core beliefs and long experience as a fierce (and funny) advocate for Nature and Nature-mindedness and against poisonous politics and policies.

Biodiversity Conservation - A...

David W. Macdonald

Extinction is a natural process. In geological time there have been several periods of mass extinction. One of these periods is unfolding right now but all the evidence suggests that current extinction rates are between a hundred and a thousand times greater than the background rate. To put this in to context, a quarter of all known mammalian species is at risk. The current extinction crisis is unique, because it is caused by the impact of one species, humans, on all others. This acceleration of species loss, and the much more widespread reductions in the populations of many species, is not merely a tragedy in aesthetics, it is also a threat to the quality of human life, indeed to the entire human enterprise. 
 
 
 
Biodiversity, the diversity of life, is not only fascinating and beautiful, it is the engine of all the world's natural cycles, and the source of many of the resources on which humanity depends. Concern about biodiversity conservation is, therefore, not merely the preoccupation of a few enthusiastic naturalists—it is the lifeline business of everybody. 
 
 
 
David Macdonald introduces the concept of biodiversity and the basic biological processes that it involves—evolutionary, ecological, and behavioral. He considers the various threats to biodiversity, their impacts, and some of the solutions to the problems.
