Summary

Glaciers, often seen as static icy landscapes, are actually dynamic archives holding vital clues to Earth's past and future. "Glacier Adventures" explores these frozen realms, revealing how glacial melt impacts sea-level rise and threatens water resources, while also unearthing ancient artifacts and biological specimens. 

 
Glaciology, the study of glaciers, is essential for understanding climate change and its widespread implications. Did you know that ice core analysis provides a detailed record of past climate conditions, revealing atmospheric composition and temperature fluctuations over millennia? Or that remote sensing techniques allow scientists to monitor glacial changes in even the most inaccessible regions?

 
This book uniquely combines scientific rigor with engaging storytelling, presenting the science of glaciers alongside firsthand accounts from researchers, making complex topics accessible to a broad audience. It begins by introducing the fundamentals of glacier formation, movement, and erosion, then progresses to examine the consequences of glacial melt on global ecosystems and the fascinating discoveries emerging from the ice, such as perfectly preserved prehistoric animals.

 
By examining the science, environmental impact, and historical significance of glaciers, the book emphasizes the urgent need for global action to address climate change.

    Tenacious Beasts - Wildlife...

    The news about wildlife is dire—more than 900 species have been wiped off the planet since industrialization. Against this bleak backdrop, however, there are also glimmers of hope and crucial lessons to be learned from animals that have defied global trends toward extinction: bears in Italy, bison in North America, whales in the Atlantic. These populations are back from the brink, some of them in numbers unimaginable in a century. How has this happened? What shifts in thinking did it demand? In crisp, transporting prose, Christopher Preston reveals the mysteries and challenges at the heart of these resurgences. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on compelling personal stories from the researchers, Indigenous people, and activists who know the creatures best, Preston weaves together a gripping narrative of how some species are taking back vital, ecological roles. Each section of the book offers a philosophical shift in how humans ought to think about animals, passionately advocating for the changes in attitude necessary for wildlife recovery. 
     
     
     
    Tenacious Beasts is quintessential nature writing for the Anthropocene, touching on different facets of ecological restoration from Indigenous knowledge to rewilding practices. More important, perhaps, the book offers a road map—and a measure of hope—for a future in which humans and animals can once again coexist.
