Summary

Climate Change Impacts offers a comprehensive look at the far-reaching consequences of our planet's changing climate, covering both environmental and societal impacts. The book explains the core scientific principles driving the climate crisis, emphasizing the interconnectedness of ecological and human systems. For example, rising global temperatures not only lead to more frequent and intense extreme weather events, but also threaten food security by disrupting agricultural practices in vulnerable regions.

 
Beginning with the basics of climate science, the book progresses to detail the environmental impacts, like rising sea levels and ecosystem disruptions. It then examines the societal implications, exploring effects on public health, water resources, and human migration.

 
The book underscores the importance of sustainability by presenting data from diverse sources, including climate models and observational records, to support its conclusions about climate change impacts. Ultimately, Climate Change Impacts advocates for informed action through mitigation and adaptation strategies, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and policymakers alike. The book uniquely integrates interdisciplinary perspectives, connecting Earth sciences with fields like economics and political science, to offer a holistic understanding of the climate crisis and potential solutions.

    Before Darwin, before Audubon, there was Maria Sibylla Merian. 
    An artist turned naturalist, Merian was born just 16 years after Galileo proclaimed that the Earth orbited the sun. But at the age of 50, she sailed from Europe to South America on a solo scientific expedition to study insect metamorphosis—an unheard-of journey for any naturalist at that time, much less a woman. 
    When she returned, she produced a book that secured her reputation, only to have it savaged in the 19th century by scientists who disdained the work of “amateurs.” 
    Chrysalis takes us from golden age Amsterdam to the Surinam tropics to modern laboratories where Merian’s insights fuel a new branch of biology. The New Yorker called it a "spellbinding biography." In it, Kim Todd brings to life a 17th century woman whose boldness and vision would still be exceptional today.

    Make the fullest possible recovery after neurological injury with this definitive guide 
     
     
     
    After an accident that left him permanently paralyzed over ten years ago, Dr. Bradford Berk made it his mission to help others recover from acute neurological injury (ANI). As the founder and director of the University of Rochester Neurorestoration Institute, he brings his abundant experience in working with patients and making his own ongoing recovery to Getting Your Brain and Body Back, the most up-to-date guide for survivors of spinal cord injury (SCI), stroke, and traumatic brain injury (TBI). 
     
     
     
    Each of these acute neurological injuries can result in similar physical and psychological challenges and require similar treatments, medications, and assistive devices. Getting Your Brain and Body Back offers comprehensive, reassuring guidance for your every concern: how to deal with grief and trauma in the aftermath of accident or injury—and build resilience as you find your way forward; what adaptive devices—for bathing, dining, mobility, and more—will help you enjoy life to the utmost; how to prevent and treat secondary health problems of every kind, such as heart, skin, and bladder troubles—sexual health included!; and therapeutic approaches from both Western and Eastern medicine to consider for maximum healing and pain relief.

    This bundle of 3 books unearths the secrets of a universe filled with eerie beauty and haunting silence. In Celestial Ghosts, we explore the faded footprints of stars that once blazed with brilliance—now reduced to nebulae, pulsars, and haunting remnants drifting in space. These ghostly traces whisper the stories of cosmic cycles and stellar endings. 
    In Stars and the Shadow Realm, we travel into the in-between—the borderlands where light dims and the shadow realm emerges. Black holes, dense star clusters, and interstellar dust clouds hide wonders we’re only beginning to detect. This section uncovers how even darkness can reveal profound cosmic truths when seen through infrared eyes and gravity’s pull. 
    Finally, Starlight and Shadows brings balance to the cosmos, revealing how light and dark constantly dance. From lunar eclipses to dark matter halos, the contrasts between brilliance and blackness shape the very structure of galaxies.

    For those suffering from early-stage Alzheimer's, for their friends and family, community and church, this book will help you understand the disease itself, how to love and care for those affected by it, and how to see the hope that's greater than it: we may forget, but God always remembers. 
    With pastoral tenderness and gospel confidence, Dr. Benjamin Mast shares his expertise on the subject and displays the power of the gospel that remains intact even when memory fades. Second Forgetting provides:Up-to-date answers to common questions about the disease and its effect on personal identity and faith.Personal stories of those affected and the loved ones who care for them and what their experiences were like—where they found hope and how they most needed support.Practical suggestions for how the church can come alongside families and those struggling or hurting. 
    When a person is diagnosed with Alzheimer's, they face great uncertainty, knowing that they can expect to live their remaining years with increasing confusion and progressively greater reliance upon other people to care for them. Dr. Mast will help you see how Alzheimer's disease cannot have the final say on God's unforgotten children. 
    Reflection questions are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.
