Synopsis

Hydropower Regulation Zones examines the complex legal and political environment surrounding hydropower, a critical area given the increasing demand for renewable energy. It highlights the inherent challenges of balancing energy production with the imperative need to protect river ecosystems.

 
The book argues that current legal frameworks often fall short in addressing the ecological and social impacts of dam construction, despite intending to strike a balance. The book delves into three key areas: water rights, approval processes for dam construction, and environmental impact assessment. Historically, laws often prioritized energy production, but growing environmental awareness has led to new legislation.

 
One intriguing fact is that implementation and enforcement of environmental regulations remain challenging, raising questions about their effectiveness in safeguarding river ecosystems. The book uniquely combines legal analysis with ecological considerations, offering a holistic view of hydropower regulation.

 
Structured to provide a comprehensive understanding, the book progresses from fundamental concepts of water rights to the regulatory processes for dam approval and culminates in policy recommendations for sustainable river management. It draws evidence from legal statutes, court decisions, and scientific research to support its arguments, making it a valuable resource for policymakers, environmental organizations, and energy companies alike, all navigating the intricate intersection of Environment and Politics in the energy sector.

    This program includes an epilogue and acknowledgements read by the author“A fascinating tale of poisons and poisonous deeds which both educates and entertains.” --Kathy ReichsAs any reader or listener of murder mysteries can tell you, poison is one of the most enduring—and popular—weapons of choice for a scheming murderer. It can be slipped into a drink, smeared onto the tip of an arrow or the handle of a door, even filtered through the air we breathe. But how exactly do these poisons work to break our bodies down, and what can we learn from the damage they inflict?In a fascinating blend of popular science, medical history, and true crime, Dr. Neil Bradbury explores this most morbidly captivating method of murder from a cellular level. Alongside real-life accounts of murderers and their crimes—some notorious, some forgotten, some still unsolved—are the equally compelling stories of the poisons involved: eleven molecules of death that work their way through the human body and, paradoxically, illuminate the way in which our bodies function.Drawn from historical records and current news headlines, A Taste for Poison weaves together the tales of spurned lovers, shady scientists, medical professionals and political assassins to show how the precise systems of the body can be impaired to lethal effect through the use of poison. From the deadly origins of the gin & tonic cocktail to the arsenic-laced wallpaper in Napoleon’s bedroom, A Taste for Poison leads listeners on a fascinating tour of the intricate, complex systems that keep us alive—or don’t.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press

    The ocean is filled with scientific discoveries—and God’s presence.  For marine biologist Rachel Jordan, both science and Scripture are means of knowing creation and Creator. In If the Ocean Has a Soul, Rachel considers the natural world through a spiritual lens, meshing marine biology with biblical truths in a keen and current take on faith and science. With engaging storytelling and deep knowledge of the Bible, she asks and answers questions like:  How can Christians reconcile religion and science when the two seem opposed?  What do suffering and death teach us about the character of Jesus?  How do we care for the environment when there seems to be little hope for repair?  What do the ocean and its sea creatures, specifically, reveal about God?  In these chapters, Rachel recounts fascinating aquatic phenomena alongside the sometimes humorous, sometimes tragic stories of animals she has known. You’ll lose yourself in the shadows of an underwater labyrinth; hear spiritual wisdom from a great-grandmother coral the size of a Volkswagen Beetle; and fall in love with Porky, the pudgy porcupinefish greeting visitors at the Windjammer shipwreck. And along the way, you’ll see how the promise of restoration unfolds in both physical and spiritual ways. Rachel’s thoughtful scientific and theological insights encourage us to know the Creator of the sea and everything in it.
