Synopsis

In "Steam Engines," the author, remaining unnamed, delves into the revolutionary impact of the steam engine on industrial society, encapsulating both its technical intricacies and its societal implications. Utilizing a narrative style that intertwines detailed accounts of innovation with vibrant illustrations, the text situates the steam engine within the larger tapestry of the Industrial Revolution. The book artfully captures the juxtaposition of human ingenuity and the relentless march of industrialization, emphasizing how this pivotal invention transformed labor, transportation, and economic structures in the 19th century. The anonymity of the author suggests a collective voice, perhaps reflective of the many engineers, inventors, and workers whose lives were fundamentally altered by steam technology. This book emerges from a historical context rife with technological optimism and socioeconomic challenges, a period that demanded innovation for progress. Such a background likely drove the author to meticulously document both the triumphs and tribulations related to the advent of steam-powered machines. "Steam Engines" is highly recommended for historians, engineers, and general readers alike who seek to understand the profound influence of steam technology on modernity. This compelling exploration invites readers to appreciate not only the mechanics behind the inventions but also the broader human experience shaped by this leap into the industrial age.

    Bluebird Seasons - Witnessing...

    In this A Sand County Almanac for the twenty-first century, nature writer and zoologist Mary Taylor Young tells the story of the growing effects of climate change on her land in the pine-covered foothills of southern Colorado. 
     
     
      
    Climate change wasn't yet on the public radar when Young and her husband bought their piece of the wild in 1995. They built a cabin and set up a trail of bluebird nest boxes, and Mary began a nature journal of her observations, delighting in the ceaseless dramas, joys, and tragedies that are the fabric of life in the wild. 
     
     
      
    But changes greater than the seasonal cycles of nature became evident over time: increasing drought, trees killed by plagues of beetles, wildfires, catastrophic weather, bears entering hibernation later and thinner, the decline of some familiar birds, and the appearance of new species. 
     
     
      
    Using the journal as a chronicle of change, Young tells a story echoed in everyone's lives and backyards. But it's not time to despair, she writes. It's time to act. 
     
     
      
    Young sees hope in the human ability to overcome great obstacles, in the energy and determination of young people, and in nature's resilience, which the bluebirds show season after season.

    This program includes an epilogue and acknowledgements read by the author“A fascinating tale of poisons and poisonous deeds which both educates and entertains.” --Kathy ReichsAs any reader or listener of murder mysteries can tell you, poison is one of the most enduring—and popular—weapons of choice for a scheming murderer. It can be slipped into a drink, smeared onto the tip of an arrow or the handle of a door, even filtered through the air we breathe. But how exactly do these poisons work to break our bodies down, and what can we learn from the damage they inflict?In a fascinating blend of popular science, medical history, and true crime, Dr. Neil Bradbury explores this most morbidly captivating method of murder from a cellular level. Alongside real-life accounts of murderers and their crimes—some notorious, some forgotten, some still unsolved—are the equally compelling stories of the poisons involved: eleven molecules of death that work their way through the human body and, paradoxically, illuminate the way in which our bodies function.Drawn from historical records and current news headlines, A Taste for Poison weaves together the tales of spurned lovers, shady scientists, medical professionals and political assassins to show how the precise systems of the body can be impaired to lethal effect through the use of poison. From the deadly origins of the gin & tonic cocktail to the arsenic-laced wallpaper in Napoleon’s bedroom, A Taste for Poison leads listeners on a fascinating tour of the intricate, complex systems that keep us alive—or don’t.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press
