Sinopsis

Bikini Atoll explores the transformation of a Pacific paradise into a symbol of nuclear devastation. Focusing on the period following World War II, the book examines the history of nuclear testing, its far-reaching environmental impact, and the displacement of the indigenous Bikinian people. The narrative reveals the complex interplay of Cold War politics, environmental destruction, and human rights violations that continue to resonate today. One striking fact is how Operation Crossroads in 1946 marked the beginning of the atoll's transformation, initiating a series of events that would forever alter its ecosystem and the lives of its inhabitants.

 
The book uniquely combines scientific analysis with personal narratives, giving voice to the often-overlooked experiences of the Bikinian people. Through declassified documents, scientific reports, and oral histories, Bikini Atoll progresses across three main sections. It begins by providing a detailed historical context, then delves into the science of nuclear testing and its environmental consequences, and concludes by exploring the human dimension of this tragedy, offering insight into the Bikinians' ongoing pursuit of justice and self-determination and how their indigenous rights were impacted.

    A Practical Guide To Modern...

    I know of no gamekeepers who are not countrymen to their fingertips.  They observe, they consider, they cherish and they do more than most to look after out woodlands and hedgerows, our moorlands and fens.  Theirs is not an easy job, out in all weathers and misunderstood by many townies who are further removed from the countryside and its workings than they have ever been, thanks to increasing technology which keeps them housebound.  They need never go out if they so choose, remaining glued to the screen of a mobile phone, a computer or a television. But those who do realise that the intervention of man need not always be irresponsible and thoughtless can see just what benefits can accrue from the wise management of our natural resources, and Jeremy Hobson does much in this book to apprise us all of the modern approach to keepering, from raising birds and habitat management to choosing coats and boots and training dogs. It is all here, and a fascinating read it is; both for those in the know and those who are curious to learn all about it.

    Telling Lies - Clues to Deceit...

    From breaking the law to breaking a promise, how do people lie and how can they be caught? 
     
     
     
    In this revised edition, Paul Ekman, a renowned expert in emotions research and nonverbal communication, adds a new chapter to present his latest research on his groundbreaking inquiry into lying and the methods for uncovering lies. Ekman has figured out the most important behavioral clues to deceit; he has developed a one-hour self-instructional program that trains people to observe and understand "micro expressions"; and he has done research that identifies the facial expressions that show whether someone is likely to become violent—a self-instructional program to train recognition of these dangerous signals has also been developed. 
     
     
     
    Telling Lies describes how lies vary in form and how they can differ from other types of misinformation that can reveal untruths. It discusses how a person's body language, voice, and facial expressions can give away a lie but still fool professional lie hunters—even judges, police officers, drug enforcement agents, and Secret Service agents.

    Mysterious Ball Lightning - Also...

    Ball Lightning — one of nature’s most astonishing enigmas is a phenomena which definitely exists. One European study counted over 5,000 sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity of these weird balls. 
    It also seems to be similar to old tales of the “Will O the Wisp” and World War Two Foo Fighters. 
    St. Elmos Fire also has similar observations so data on this phenomenon that dazzles scientists, baffled yet intrigued and mystics alike are included too. 
    There are many potential explanations but none are confirmed. Although most seem to appear around thunderstorms this is not always the case. 
    My own belief is that these objects are controlled by some type of intelligence and we will discuss reasons for this later in the book. 
    In this book you will read a lot of background information and sightings that ignite both wonder and scientific curiosity stories by persons for the last hundreds of years. 
    This is just another mystery in our strange world which cries out for more investigation.
