Sinopsis

Emergency Signal Methods offers crucial knowledge for anyone venturing into remote areas, focusing on how to create effective distress signals. It emphasizes that signaling isn't just luck, but a science-based skill involving signal patterns, material selection, and strategic positioning, all within international search and rescue standards. For example, understanding how weather impacts signal visibility can dramatically improve your chances of being seen. This book uniquely combines practical, hands-on advice with scientific principles, distinguishing it from general survival guides.

 
It begins by establishing the core principles of visual and auditory signaling, detailing the evolution of SAR practices and the technological advancements that influence search methodologies. One key insight involves understanding the "Rule of Threes" and the universal distress signal. The book progresses systematically. It starts with the essentials of distress signaling, moves to material selection (like using fire, smoke, or signal mirrors), and then emphasizes strategic positioning based on terrain and weather. Case studies of successful and unsuccessful rescues are included to reinforce learning, making it an invaluable resource for outdoor enthusiasts and survivalists.

    Combining history, reportage, and nature writing with intimate moments of reflection, Greyhound tells of the journey from miscarriage to parenthood, and the purpose creativity gives to our lives when we feel purposeless 
     
    In 2006, in the wake of several miscarriages, Joanna Pocock traveled by Greyhound bus across the United States from Detroit to Los Angeles. Seventeen years later, she undertakes the same journey, revisiting the cities, edgelands, highways, and motels in the footsteps of the few women writers—Simone de Beauvoir, Ethel Mannin, and Irma Kurtz—who also chronicled their road trips across the United States. Combining memoir, reportage, environmental writing, and literary criticism, Greyhound is a moving and immersive book that captures an America in the throes of late capitalism with all its beauty, horror, and complexity.

    A Suitcase Full of Koalas is a modern, edgy travel book set to test your wits and memory for detail. Gallivanting around London and somewhere distinctly south of the great capital in a sleepy seaside village, the author finds herself handing out tiny furry koalas to the English, to the Polish, to the Italians, in fact to anyone who cares to accept the little fellas as a gift from Australia. In her moochings over a month, she manages to meet a myriad of characters from all walks of life who practically jump off the pavements, à la Mary Poppins and Bert, and into the book.  
     
    This is a book about life and living – about the human condition and quest for feathering one’s own nest. As John Donne observed, ‘No man is an island’, but sometimes we yearn to embrace solitude and sit with ourselves and a good book. A Suitcase Full of Koalas will inevitably tickle your fancy and have you laughing on every other page. But that’s a good thing, isn’t it?
