Sinossi

Fog and Mist offers a comprehensive exploration of fog, revealing its profound influence on our planet, bridging atmospheric science, environmental studies, and geography. The book examines fog formation, classification, and ecological impact, showing how this weather phenomenon affects everything from aviation safety to the survival of unique ecosystems. Did you know that fog acts as a crucial water source for certain ecosystems, like coastal redwood forests, or that even minor temperature changes drastically alter fog patterns? This book takes you from the basic physics of fog creation to detailed analyses of fog's impact on various ecosystems and human activities.

 
It meticulously categorizes fog types—radiation, advection, and more—explaining their unique characteristics and formation processes. By integrating real-world case studies and meteorological data, Fog and Mist highlights fog's significance. It also delves into how climate change could impact fog patterns, a topic of ongoing debate.

 
The book progresses from fundamental principles to complex applications, systematically building an understanding of fog's multifaceted role. Each chapter explores a different facet, from fog formation to its ecological impacts and implications for transportation. This approach makes the book a valuable resource for students, professionals, and anyone interested in understanding this often-underestimated weather phenomenon.

Off-Earth - Ethical Questions...

Erika Nesvold

Can we do better in space than we've done here on Earth? 
 
 
 
We've pinpointed the destination, refined the technology, designed the habitat. Are we forgetting something? A timely reminder that it's not just rocket science, this book explores the all-too-human issues raised by the prospect of settling in outer space. Accordingly, her work highlights the complex ethical challenges that accompany any other-worldly venture—questions about the environment, labor rights, and medical ethics, among others. 
 
 
 
Any such venture, Nesvold contends, must be made on behalf of all humanity, with global input and collaboration. Off-Earth thus includes historical and contemporary examples from outside the dominant Western/US, abled, and privileged narrative of the space industry. Nesvold calls on experts in ethics, sociology, history, social justice, and law to launch a hopeful conversation about the potential ethical pitfalls of becoming a multi-planet species—and, ideally, to shed light on similar problems we presently face here on Earth. 
 
 
 
Space settlement is rapidly becoming ever more likely. Will it look like the utopian vision of Star Trek? Or the dark future of Star Wars? Nesvold challenges us to decide.

Inca Astronomy and Astrology:...

Editors Charles River

Though the Spanish physically conquered them in quick fashion, the culture and legacy of the Inca Empire has continued to endure throughout the centuries in both Europe and South America, due in no small part to the fact they were one of the most advanced and sophisticated cultures on the continent. Like the Aztecs, the Spanish burned much of the Inca’s extant writings, but it is estimated that as many as 35 million once fell under their banner, and the empire’s administrative skills were so sharp that they kept accurate census records. Their religion, organization, and laws were also effectively centralized and tied to the rulers of the empire, and their military mobilization would have made the ancient Spartans proud. After the Spanish conquest, several rebellions in the area attempted to reestablish the proud Inca Empire over the next two centuries, all while famous Europeans like Voltaire glorified the Inca Empire in optimistic artistic portrayals. 
The sun was the main element present in the Inca worldview, so Inti, the sun god, was worshipped above all others and, even though the different parts of the empire were allowed to practice their individual beliefs, they were encouraged to venerate the sun. The connection with the sun even extended to their kings since they were considered to be the sons of the sun. Naturally, this meant astronomy was a key component of the Incas’ beliefs, and in addition to the sun, the Inca observed the moon, stars, constellations, and some planets, all of which became integral parts of their cosmology. The Cusco Valley was the heart of the Inca Empire, and many of the Inca's settlements have been found to contain important astronomical elements, providing clear evidence of the importance astronomy had among the Inca.
