Sinopsis

Water Scarcity Issues explores the growing global challenge of dwindling water resources and the urgent need for sustainable water management. It examines how factors like population growth, agricultural practices, and climate change exacerbate water scarcity, impacting ecosystems and societies worldwide. The book uniquely combines scientific analysis with policy insights, highlighting that technology alone isn't enough; effective solutions require policy reforms, behavioral changes, and community engagement.

 
The book traces the history of water resource management while grounding its analysis in scientific principles like the hydrological cycle. It evaluates the effectiveness of current water management strategies, from infrastructure to policy, emphasizing sustainability and equity. Readers will discover intriguing facts, such as how integrated water resource management (IWRM) can balance competing demands.

 
Beginning with an introduction to the concept of water scarcity and its global distribution, the book progresses through specific drivers, management strategies (like water pricing and wastewater reuse), and concludes with policy recommendations. Case studies and empirical data illustrate the challenges and opportunities facing different regions, offering a holistic understanding of this critical environmental issue.

    A ticking biological clock shouldn't feel like a time bomb! Learn what you need to know about modern fertility to help take control of your reproductive future—from egg and embryo freezing to IVF, surrogacy, and beyond.  
    Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have, and 90 percent of them are gone by age 30. The eggs that remain will decline in both quantity and quality, making it increasingly difficult to become pregnant around the same time that many women are focused on finding a life partner, building their career, or both. But Jaime Knopman, MD, wants you to know that science has advanced, the world has transformed, and the choices available to us have changed too. For years, Dr. Knopman’s practice in a thriving New York City–based fertility clinic focused on infertility; now, she is primarily a fertility specialist who helps countless women and couples understand and utilize the latest options that can offer reproductive freedom. This shift is profound, as everything about the way we can, and increasingly do, make babies has changed, with implications that extend far beyond family planning. In Own Your Fertility, Dr. Knopman and coauthor Rebecca Raphael offer an accessible modern–day overview of how advancements in the field of fertility treatment have transformed the path to pregnancy, while also sounding the alarm that women in particular can—and should—take control of their reproduction. Whether you’re trying to get pregnant, thinking about having a baby in the future, or simply want to keep your options open, this book is your guide to all things reproductive planning, from egg and embryo freezing to IVF, sperm and egg donors, and surrogacy. Grounded in science, data, and decades of experience with patients from all walks of life, Own Your Fertility debunks common fertility misconceptions and empowers you to make informed, intentional, and proactive decisions about your body and your future.

    As young boys, Trevor and Kyle Ritland were fascinated by the golden toad of Costa Rica, a brilliant species their biologist father showed them in his projector's slide shows. Native to only one wind-battered ridgeline high on the continental divide above the cloud forests of Monteverde, thousands of golden toads would congregate for a few weeks each year in ephemeral pools among the twisted roots to mate, deposit their offspring, and retreat again beneath the earth. But from one year to the next, the toads disappeared without a trace. Since then, only rumors remain, which beg the question: could the golden toad still be alive? 
     
     
     
    In The Golden Toad, Trevor and Kyle set off to investigate an environmental mystery with unexpected revelations, a story that speaks to our own collective and uncertain future. Guided by Costa Rican naturalists—including the last person to have seen the golden toad alive—Trevor searches for survivors while Kyle hunts the killer, and their paths lead them through an imperiled forest, a deadly pandemic, and a changing climate, intertwining at the site of the golden toad's last emergence deep in Monteverde's Bosque Eterno de Los Niños. 
     
     
     
    The Golden Toad changes the conversation around extinction, climate change, and conservation while exploring environmental grief, resurrection, and hope in a changing world.
