Synopsis

Steam Power Agriculture examines the significant role of steam power in transforming agricultural practices during the industrial era. This book explores how steam-driven machinery replaced manual labor and animal power, leading to modern agricultural techniques. It highlights the ingenuity behind innovations like steam-powered plows and threshing machines, which drastically increased food production. The book also sheds light on the socio-economic effects of this mechanization, including shifts in labor dynamics and land ownership.

 
The book uses patent records from the United States and the United Kingdom to showcase the inventive spirit driving agricultural mechanization. It argues that the introduction of steam power was not just a technological upgrade but a catalyst for systemic change, restructuring rural economies. For example, the transition led to both increased yields and debates about environmental impact and labor displacement.

 
Organized methodically, the book begins with the fundamentals of steam engines adapted for farming. It then progresses to specific innovations and their designs, analyzes the consequent socio-economic changes, and concludes with the decline of steam power and its lasting legacy. By combining technological analysis with socio-economic impact assessment, the book offers a holistic understanding of steam power's influence, making it valuable for historians, economists, and anyone interested in the evolution of agriculture.

    Koalas regularly appeared in Australian biologist Danielle Clode's backyard, but it was only when a bushfire threatened that she truly paid them attention. 
     
     
     
    In vivid, descriptive prose, Clode embarks on a delightful and surprising journey through evolutionary biology, natural history, and ecology to understand where these enigmatic animals came from and what their future may hold. She begins her search with the fossils of ancient giant koalas, delving into why the modern koala has become the lone survivor of a once-diverse family of uniquely Australian marsupials. 
     
     
     
    Koala investigates the remarkable physiology of these charismatic creatures. Clode explores the complex relationship and unexpected connections between this endearing species and humans. She explains how koalas are simultaneously threatened with extinction in some areas due to disease, climate change, and increasing wildfires, while overpopulating forests in other parts of the country. 
     
     
     
    Deeply researched and filled with wonder, Koala is both a tender and inquisitive paean to a species unlike any other and a call to ensure its survival.

    Practice the Pause - Jesus'...

    These days, many of us live in a state of overreactive fight-or-flight response and chronic stress. The demands of modern life pull us in all directions and can often put the meaningful connections in our lives at risk—connections to our deepest selves, to others, and even to God. 
     
     
     
    But there is good news. New developments in brain science have recently proven that an intentional practice of pausing for a few minutes of meditation, prayer, or other contemplative practice actually rewires our brain in ways that make us calmer, less reactive, and better able to see the bigger picture. 
     
     
     
    In Practice the Pause, spiritual director and writer Caroline Oakes offers easy-to-understand explanations of how this new brain science is confirming what every spiritual tradition has been telling us for millennia: by practicing the pause, we become more self-aware and better able to understand others. We become more "God aware." With a refreshing focus on the Eastern Christian understanding of Jesus as a master of wisdom, Oakes shines a spotlight on Jesus's own centering pause practice as a transformative path for personal and social change. We learn that even a seven-second pause practice can move us beyond the fight-or-flight responses of our ego in our daily lives and actually equip us to cultivate the common good in the world.
