Sinossi

Detergent History Evolution explores the fascinating history of chemical cleaning agents, from rudimentary soaps to modern detergents, revealing how technological advancements have deeply impacted society. This book uniquely bridges technology and history, drawing on previously unexplored industrial archives to offer a fresh perspective.

 
One intriguing fact is that the development of synthetic detergents was spurred by wartime necessities, leading to a post-war boom that revolutionized cleaning practices. The book highlights the chemical engineering underpinning detergent formulation and the societal impact of improved hygiene on public health and cultural norms.

 
The book approaches this evolution chronologically and thematically, beginning with pre-industrial cleaning methods and early soaps. It then traces the shift to synthetic detergents and analyzes innovations in surfactants and other components.

 
Finally, the book discusses current trends, environmental concerns, and future directions, emphasizing the complex interplay between technological progress and societal concerns. This comprehensive view encourages readers to consider the historical context and ongoing influence of cleaning technologies on our lives.

    American Disgust - Racism...

    American Disgust shows how perceptions of disgust and fears of contamination are rooted in the country's history of colonialism and racism. Drawing on colonial, corporate, and medical archives, Matthew J. Wolf-Meyer argues that microbial medicine is closely entwined with changing cultural experiences of digestion, excrement, and disgust that are inextricably tied to the creation of whiteness. 
     
     
     
    Ranging from nineteenth-century colonial encounters with Native people to John Harvey Kellogg's ideas around civilization and bowel movements to mid-twentieth-century diet and parenting advice books, Wolf-Meyer analyzes how embedded racist histories of digestion and disgust permeate contemporary debates around fecal microbial transplants and other bacteriotherapeutic treatments for gastrointestinal disease. 
     
     
     
    At its core, American Disgust wrestles with how changing cultural notions of digestion—what goes into the body and what comes out of it—create and impose racial categories motivated by feelings of disgust rooted in American settler-colonial racism. It shows how disgust is a changing, yet fundamental, aspect of American subjectivity and that engaging with it—personally, politically, and theoretically—opens up possibilities for conceptualizing health at the individual, societal, and planetary levels.

    The First Astronomers - How...

    The First Astronomers is the first book to reveal the rich knowledge of the stars and the planets held by First Peoples around the world. 
    Our eyes have been drawn away from the skies to our screens. We no longer look to the stars to forecast the weather, predict the seasons or plant our gardens. Most of us cannot even see the Milky Way. But First Nations Elders around the world still maintain this knowledge, and there is much we can learn from them. 
    These Elders are expert observers of the stars. They teach that everything on the land is reflected in the sky, and everything in the sky is reflected on the land. How does this work, and how can we better understand our place in the universe? 
    Guided by six First Nations Elders, Duane Hamacher takes us on a journey across space and time to reveal the wisdom of the first astronomers. These living systems of knowledge challenge conventional ideas about the nature of science and the longevity of oral tradition. Indigenous science is dynamic, adapting to changes in the skies and on earth, pointing the way for a world facing the profound disruptions of climate change. 
    'This book marks a profound paradigm shift in our understanding of Indigenous scientific traditions, how they are transmitted, and their relevance to life today.' Professor Marcia Langton, University of Melbourne 
    'A ground-breaking book of enormous scope.' Brian Schmidt, Nobel Laureate in Physics 
    'A glimpse into Indigenous ways of reading landscapes reflected in the night sky through ancient processes of inquiry.' Dr Tyson Yunkaporta, author of Sand Talk 
    'A wonderful combination of scholarship and poetry.' Dr Annette S. Lee, Lakota astrophysicist 
    'Beautiful, engaging, and startlingly profound.' Alan Duffy, Professor of Astrophysics
