    Can corals build worlds? Do rattlesnakes enchant? What is a raccoon, and what might it know? Animals and the questions they raised thwarted human efforts to master nature during the so-called Enlightenment—a historical moment when rigid classification pervaded the study of natural history, people traded in people, and imperial avarice wrapped its tentacles around the globe. Whitney Barlow Robles makes animals the unruly protagonists of eighteenth-century science through journeys to four spaces and ecological zones: the ocean, the underground, the curiosity cabinet, and the field. Her forays reveal a forgotten lineage of empirical inquiry, one that forced researchers to embrace uncertainty. This tumultuous era in the history of human-animal encounters still haunts modern biologists and ecologists as they who struggle to fathom animals today. 
     
     
      
    In an eclectic fusion of history and nature writing, Robles alternates between careful historical investigations and probing personal narratives. These excavations of the past and present of distinct nonhuman creatures reveal the animal foundations of human knowledge and show why tackling our current environmental crisis first requires looking back in time.

    I recently saw several predictions by well-known seers of the future that there will be a huge natural disaster in June/July of 2025. 
    Whether a disaster from a comet crashing into the Earth, a huge volcanic eruption or earthquake or a nuclear war; the likelihood of humanity suffering a period of global cooling is that it will happen—and has already happened in the past. 
    Disasters could actually cause global cooling for months or years. In trying to lookup any books on how to individuals and society should handle global cooling I couldn’t find anything. So I decided to write a manual dealing with this issue. 
    This manual has five parts: 
    Part One-Understanding the Threat 
    Part Two-Preparation and Prevention 
    Part Three-Surviving the Freeze 
    Part Four-Rebuilding in the ICE 
    Part Five-Looking Forward 
    Historical examples of how mankind dealt with global cooling in the past are included as well as lots of advice on how to recognize this process happening to our world, and how to deal with the consequences. 
    Survival for both individuals and society, and how to plan for the future. 
    I hope this situation never happens in our lifetimes but this book might be an aid to survival in those circumstances.

    Teratology is the study of congenital abnormalities and the factors that contribute to developmental disorders in embryos and fetuses. Birth defects, which range from minor physical anomalies to severe life-threatening conditions, affect millions of infants worldwide. Understanding their causes, mechanisms, and potential prevention strategies is essential for improving maternal and infant health. Over time, scientific advancements have shed light on the complex interplay between genetics, environmental influences, and maternal health, all of which contribute to fetal development. 
    The origins of teratology date back centuries, with early theories often rooted in superstition rather than science. However, as medical knowledge expanded, researchers identified specific genetic mutations, environmental toxins, infections, and nutritional deficiencies as key contributors to congenital disorders. Today, a combination of genetic research, prenatal screening, and preventive healthcare plays a crucial role in reducing the prevalence and severity of birth defects. 
    Birth defects can be classified into several categories, including structural, functional, and metabolic disorders. Structural anomalies, such as cleft lip, spina bifida, and congenital heart defects, result from improper tissue or organ formation. Functional disorders, including neurological and developmental disabilities, affect how the body operates. Metabolic disorders, often inherited, impact the body’s ability to process nutrients and chemicals. Each type of defect has unique causes and requires different approaches to diagnosis, treatment, and management.

    In 2018, lumps of frozen soil, collected from the bottom of the world's first deep ice core and lost for decades, reappeared in Denmark. When geologist Paul Bierman and his team first melted a piece of this unique material, they were shocked to find perfectly preserved leaves, twigs, and moss. That observation led them to a startling discovery: Greenland's ice sheet had melted naturally before, about 400,000 years ago. 
     
     
     
    In When the Ice Is Gone, Bierman traces the story of this extraordinary finding, revealing how it radically changes our understanding of the Earth and its climate. A longtime researcher in Greenland, he begins with a brief history of the island, both human and geological. For the origins of ice coring, Bierman brings us to Camp Century, a US military base built inside Greenland's ice sheet, where engineers first drilled through mile-thick ice and into the frozen soil beneath. Decades later, a few feet of that long-frozen earth would reveal its secrets—ancient warmth and melted ice. 
     
     
     
    Changes in Greenland reverberate around the world, with ice melting high in the arctic affecting people everywhere. Bierman explores how losing Greenland's ice will catalyze devastating events if we don't change course and address climate change now.
