What the River Knows - Essays...

Michael Engelhard

Edward Abbey, who never much liked Alaska, called it "our biggest, buggiest, boggiest state." To others, it has been a cure for despair. When Michael Engelhard moved to Fairbanks more than three decades ago, he was a cheechako, a subarctic tenderfoot. Gathering skills and experiences the hard way, he attained "Sourdough" status while realizing there would always be more to learn, see, and do in the land of midnight sun and auroras. 
 
 
 
En route, Engelhard suffered frostbite, stubborn yaks, grizzly charges, trophy hunters, cold-water immersion, heartbreak, incontinent raptors, one pesky squirrel, and honeymooners from abroad. He tried to rescue a raven and explored Arctic dunes and a glacier's blue heart, and his own as he mingled with caribou on their epic journeys.

Cleaner Mouth Longer Life - What...

Lina Garcia

Brushing and flossing are essential components of dental health, but that is not what this book is about! According to Dr. Garcia, a clean mouth becomes “dirty” because of the things done to it or placed in it by conventional dental practices. That’s because traditional dentistry is primarily concerned with pain and appearance. No one likes an aching tooth – it often drives us to the dentist in the first place. And we all want perfectly arranged pearly whites with no gaps. These are not wrong desires, but without proper concern for the patient’s health beyond the oral cavity, long-term damage can be done to vitality and length of life. Teeth, gums, and jawbone are connected to the rest of the body through the circulatory system, the lymphatic system, the digestive system, the respiratory system, and the nervous system. That means that what happens in the mouth never stays there. The materials and procedures used to produce a great-looking smile often dump toxins, pathogens, and other stresses on the oral tissues and the rest of the body that wreak havoc in many places. As a holistic dentist, Dr. Garcia can guide you into good choices about your dental care that will not sacrifice either a good-looking smile or your overall health and longevity. As you’ll soon see, a cleaner mouth does promote a longer life!

The Urban Experience - Exploring...

Lyric Vale

Urban life is a dynamic tapestry woven from the threads of culture, innovation, and diversity. Cities, as epicenters of human activity, have always held a magnetic allure, drawing people in with the promise of opportunity, connectivity, and growth. From the ancient cities of Mesopotamia to the sprawling metropolises of today, urban centers have evolved into places where human ambition and creativity flourish. Understanding the essence of urban life requires a deep dive into the social, cultural, and economic forces that shape these vibrant hubs of civilization.
At their core, cities are defined by their density and diversity. They bring together individuals from all walks of life, creating a melting pot of cultures, languages, and traditions. This diversity fosters a unique cultural ecosystem where ideas intersect, and innovation thrives. The exchange of knowledge, whether through bustling markets, collaborative workplaces, or artistic endeavors, is one of the defining characteristics of urban living. Cities are not just physical spaces; they are living entities that embody the collective energy of their inhabitants.
Urban life is also deeply intertwined with the physical structure of the city. Streets, buildings, and public spaces are more than mere infrastructure—they serve as stages for human interaction and expression. Urban planning and architecture play crucial roles in shaping the experience of city life, influencing everything from how people move and interact to how they feel within their environment. Well-designed urban spaces can foster community, encourage sustainability, and enhance the overall quality of life for city dwellers.
