  Comet Madness - How the 1910...

  Richard J. Goodrich

  Since the dawn of civilization, humans had believed comets were evil portents. In 1705, Edmond Halley liberated humanity from these primordial superstitions, proving that Newtonian mechanics rather than the will of the gods brought comets into our celestial neighborhood. Despite this scientific advance, when Halley's Comet returned in 1910, newspapers gleefully provoked a global hysteria that unfolded with tragic consequences. 
   
   
   
  In Comet Madness, author and historian Richard J. Goodrich examines the 1910 appearance of Halley's Comet and the ensuing frenzy sparked by media manipulation, bogus science, and outright deception. 
   
   
   
  As the comet neared Earth, scientists and journalists alike scrambled to get the story straight as citizens the world over panicked. 
   
   
   
  As a result, workmen shelved their tools, farmers refused to plant crops they would never harvest, and formerly reliable people stopped paying their creditors. Others suffered mental breakdowns, and some took their own lives. 
   
   
   
  Comet Madness reveals how humans confront the unknown, how scientists learn about the world we inhabit, and how certain people—from outright hucksters to opportunistic journalists—harness fear to produce a profit.

  A COSMIC CONUNDRUM—This astonishing book follows our ascendancy from just another hominin on the open African savannah to the alpha hegemon on Earth today endangering its entire future. Along the way, humans methodically outwitted their competition with phenomenal efficiency and indifference, to emerge in the modern 21st century as the linchpin of a major mass extinction of countless other lifeforms cohabiting their planet with them. The shredding of our fragile ecosphere by massive proliferation and monopolistic overconsumption of Earth’s precious resources by a single invasive species, along with the inexorable combustion of deadly fossil fuels to acquire the energy needed to sustain their profligate and lavish lifestyle, is threatening to drive H. sapiens itself into extinction within the next 300 years. This is the true story of that improbable adventure!

  Cetology - Whales Dolphins and...

  Cetology, the scientific study of cetaceans—whales, dolphins, and porpoises—plays a vital role in understanding the complexities of marine ecosystems. This branch of marine biology delves into the behaviors, anatomy, physiology, ecology, and conservation of these magnificent creatures. The field's significance extends beyond simply observing and classifying different species; it also serves as a lens through which we can better comprehend the delicate balance of life in the ocean and the various environmental pressures influencing it. 
  The study of cetology has captivated scientists and marine enthusiasts alike for centuries. Early observations of cetaceans were often based on myths, folklore, and a limited understanding of the creatures' biology and behavior. However, as marine exploration advanced and the field of marine science grew, researchers began to focus on the detailed study of cetaceans, uncovering insights into their complex lives. The 19th and 20th centuries brought with them key developments in cetological research, including advancements in the identification of different species, the discovery of migration patterns, and breakthroughs in understanding cetacean communication. 
  Cetology covers a vast range of topics, from the anatomical and physiological traits that make cetaceans uniquely adapted to life in water to their social structures and interactions within pods. The study of cetacean communication, including their use of sound to navigate, hunt, and socialize, has proven to be one of the most fascinating aspects of cetology. Researchers have discovered that whales and dolphins use a complex system of vocalizations, clicks, and whistles, which play a critical role in their survival and social organization.

  The Newton Wars & the Beginning...

  J.B. Shank

  Nothing is considered more natural than the connection between Isaac Newton’s science and the modernity that came into being during the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. Terms like “Newtonianism” are routinely taken as synonyms for “Enlightenment” and “modern” thought, yet the particular conjunction of these terms has a history full of accidents and contingencies. Modern physics, for example, was not the determined result of the rational unfolding of Newton’s scientific work in the eighteenth century, nor was the Enlightenment the natural and inevitable consequence of Newton’s eighteenth-century reception. Each of these outcomes, in fact, was a contingent event produced by the particular historical developments of the early eighteenth century. A comprehensive study of public culture, The Newton Wars and the Beginning of the French Enlightenment digsbelow the surface of the commonplace narratives that link Newton with Enlightenment thought to examine the actual historical changes that brought them together in eighteenth-century time and space. Drawing on the full range of early modern scientific sources, from studied scientific treatises and academic papers to book reviews, commentaries, and private correspondence, J. B. Shank challenges the widely accepted claim that Isaac Newton’s solitary genius is the reason for his iconic status as the father of modern physics and the philosophemovement.

  Assuming the Ecosexual Position...

  What's sexy about saving the planet? Funny you should ask. Because that is precisely—or, perhaps, broadly—what Annie Sprinkle and Beth Stephens have spent many years bringing to light in their live art, exhibitions, and films. In 2008, Sprinkle and Stephens married the Earth, which set them on the path to explore the realms of ecosexuality as they became lovers with the Earth and made their mutual pleasure an embodied expression of passion for the environment. Ever since, they have been not just pushing but obliterating the boundaries circumscribing biology and ecology, creating ecosexual art in their performance of an environmentalism that is feminist, queer, sensual, sexual, posthuman, materialist, exuberant, and steeped in humor. 
   
   
   
  Assuming the Ecosexual Position tells of childhood moments that pointed to a future of ecosexuality—for Annie, in her family swimming pool in Los Angeles; for Beth, savoring forbidden tomatoes from the vine on her grandparents' Appalachian farm. The book describes how the two came together as lovers and collaborators, how they took a stand against homophobia and xenophobia, and how this union led to the miraculous conception of the Love Art Laboratory, which involved influential performance artists Linda M. Montano, Guillermo Gómez-Peña, and feminist pornographer Madison Young.
