Sinossi

Norwegian Explorers explores the compelling history of Norwegian seafarers and their profound impact on global exploration and European maritime history. Driven by geographical realities, societal ambitions, and individual courage, these explorers navigated uncharted waters, leaving an indelible mark on our understanding of the world. The book highlights intriguing facts, such as the Vikings' surprisingly advanced navigational skills, which allowed them to reach North America centuries before Columbus, and the incredible scientific contributions of polar explorers like Fridtjof Nansen.

 
This book takes a multifaceted approach, progressing chronologically from the Viking voyages to the polar expeditions of the 19th and 20th centuries, and finally to the commercial and scientific expeditions that charted new territories. It examines the historical context, technological advancements like maritime technology, and the interplay of economic, scientific, and nationalistic motivations behind Norwegian exploration. By examining primary accounts and offering fresh translations, Norwegian Explorers provides a comprehensive and engaging narrative valuable to anyone interested in history, geography, or Scandinavian culture.

Some even going so far as to call it a “sex apocalypse”. Throughout this book, Dr. bird explores not only how and why this phenomenon occurred, but also unboxes foundationally regifted social, relational, and technological u.s. misinformation(s) and disinformation(s), which have devolved into our digital and increasingly algorithmic envirusment. To do so, first, they argue that our dominant ideas of intelligence have always been limited. Then, they connect those logics to escalating environmental crises. Third, Dr. bird reveals how our major ideas of relational intelligence have been tainted by these widely accepted human misconceptions. And, not only that, but that this mentality has been copy and pasted across nearly everything that we do and love. In doing so, Dr. bird makes clear how the envirusment era presents us abundant opportunities to understand how, in numerous violent taken for granted ways, an idea that the “body is a machine” has infected our lifestyles, sickening, disabling, and poisoning us all to death for profit. Yet, in new viral forms, instead of liberatory solutions, the richest continue to invest in more inhumane artificial intelligence. Instead, Dr. bird insists current problems cannot be solved without transformational human solutions, reminding us that we all hold and can embrace our authenticity, reflecting on our life’s knowledge, to fix this shit.

    From the Duck Dynasty star and #1 New York Times bestselling author comes a rollicking popular history of fishing in America. 
    American Fisherman traces the impact fishing has had in shaping America’s history, and reveals the influential role it has played in defining our lives. Willie Robertson persuasively argues that America became what it is today in no small part because of the anglers that call it home. From harvesting New England cod to fly fishing for Yellowstone trout to raising Pacific Northwest salmon, the fishing industry has long played an essential role in the establishment of many of the nation’s earliest ports, most notably along the East Coast. Robertson explores how fishing has informed our culture, in literature, movies, and television, from classics like The Old Man and the Sea, A River Runs Through It, and Moby-Dick to The Perfect Storm, In the Heart of the Sea, and The Deadliest Catch, to popular local television fishing programs from coast to coast. 
    Robertson also analyzes the economics of this $50 billion annual business which supports a host of industries, including tourism and manufacturing, as well as conservationism. Told in Robertson’s charming down-home voice, American Fisherman is a spirited and unique look at America and its people.

    Amos was one of the Twelve Minor Prophets. An older contemporary of Hosea and Isaiah, Amos was active c. 760-755 BCE during the rule of kings Jeroboam II of Israel and Uzziah of Judah. He was from the southern Kingdom of Judah but preached in the northern Kingdom of Israel. Amos wrote at a time of relative peace and prosperity but also of neglect of God's laws. He spoke against an increased disparity between the very wealthy and the very poor. His major themes of justice, God's omnipotence, and divine judgment became staples of prophecy. The Book of Amos is attributed to him.
