Beschreibung

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.

Health Communism - A Surplus...

Beatrice Adler-Bolton, Artie...

A searing analysis of health and illness under capitalism from hosts of the hit podcast Death Panel 
 
 
 
Written by cohosts of the hit Death Panel podcast and longtime disability justice and healthcare activists Beatrice Adler-Bolton and Artie, Health Communism first examines how capital has instrumentalized health, disability, madness, and illness to create a class seen as "surplus," regarded as a fiscal and social burden. Demarcating the healthy from the surplus, the worker from the "unfit" to work, the authors argue, serves not only to undermine solidarity but to mark whole populations for extraction by the industries that have emerged to manage and contain this "surplus" population. Health Communism then looks to the grave threat capital poses to global public health, and at the rare movements around the world that have successfully challenged the extractive economy of health. 
 
 
 
Ultimately, Adler-Bolton and Vierkant argue, we will not succeed in defeating capitalism until we sever health from capital. To do this will require a radical new politics of solidarity that centers the surplus, built on an understanding that we must not base the value of human life on one's willingness or ability to be productive within the current political economy. Capital, it turns out, only fears health.

If Science is to Save Us

Martin Rees

There has never been a time when 'following the science' has been more important for humanity. At no other point in history have we had such advanced knowledge and technology at our fingertips, nor had such astonishing capacity to determine the future of our planet. 
 
 
 
But the decisions we must make on how science is applied belong outside the lab and should be the outcome of wide public debate. For that to happen, science needs to become part of our common culture. Science is not just for scientists: if it were, it could never save us from the multiple crises we face. For science can save us, if its innovations mesh carefully into society and its applications are channeled for the common good. 
 
 
 
As Martin Rees argues in this expert and personal analysis of the scientific endeavor on which we all depend, we need to think globally, we need to think rationally and we need to think long-term, empowered by twenty-first-century technology but guided by values that science alone cannot provide.
