Summary

Wood Carbon Storage explores the crucial role of forests and wood products in carbon sequestration, a key strategy for climate change mitigation. It highlights how sustainably managed forests act as carbon sinks, absorbing atmospheric CO2 through photosynthesis and storing it in trees, soils, and durable wood products like timber. Understanding the carbon cycle within forests is essential; for example, long-term forest monitoring helps assess carbon sequestration rates in different tree species. The book examines various forest management techniques and their impacts on carbon storage, alongside the durability of different wood products. It also investigates the historical trends in deforestation and reforestation and their effect on the global carbon cycle. By analyzing the spatial distribution of forests and incorporating economic incentives, the book provides a holistic overview of wood carbon storage that is valuable for environmental scientists, forest managers, and policymakers.

 
The book progresses from fundamental concepts to analyzing management techniques, wood products, and relevant policies. It uses scientific research, forest inventories, and carbon accounting models to support its arguments, advocating for a balanced approach to forest management that maximizes carbon sequestration while providing other ecosystem services and economic benefits.

    Most people believe that they were either benefited or at least not harmed by being brought into existence. Thus, if they ever do reflect on whether they should bring others into existence—rather than having children without even thinking about whether they should—they presume that they do them no harm. Better Never to Have Been challenges these assumptions. David Benatar argues that coming into existence is always a serious harm. Those who never exist cannot be deprived. However, by coming into existence one does suffer quite serious harms that could not have befallen one had one not come into existence. Drawing on the relevant psychological literature, the author shows that there are a number of well-documented features of human psychology that explain why people systematically overestimate the quality of their lives and why they are thus resistant to the suggestion that they were seriously harmed by being brought into existence. The author then argues for the "anti-natal" view—that it is always wrong to have children—and he shows that combining the anti-natal view with common pro-choice views about fetal moral status yield a "pro-death" view about abortion. Although counter-intuitive for many, that implication is defended, not least by showing that it solves many conundrums of moral theory about population.

    A brilliant exploration of a significant and understudied aspect of Nietzsche’s philosophy. In this groundbreaking work, Christa Davis Acampora offers a profound rethinking of Friedrich Nietzsche’s crucial notion of the agon. Analyzing an impressive array of primary and secondary sources and synthesizing decades of Nietzsche scholarship, she shows how the agon, or contest, organized core areas of Nietzsche’s philosophy, providing a new appreciation of the subtleties of his notorious views about power. By focusing so intensely on this particular guiding interest, she offers an exciting, original vantage from which to view this iconic thinker: Contesting Nietzsche. Though existence—viewed through the lens of Nietzsche’s agon—is fraught with struggle, Acampora illuminates what Nietzsche recognized as the agon’s generative benefits. It imbues the human experience with significance, meaning, and value. Analyzing Nietzsche’s elaborations of agonism—his remarks on types of contests, qualities of contestants, and the conditions in which either may thrive or deteriorate—she demonstrates how much the agon shaped his philosophical projects and critical assessments of others. The agon led him from one set of concerns to the next, from aesthetics to metaphysics to ethics to psychology, via Homer, Socrates, Saint Paul, and Wagner. In showing how one obsession catalyzed so many diverse interests, Contesting Nietzsche sheds fundamentally new light on some of this philosopher’s most difficult and paradoxical ideas.
