Sinopsis

Giant Insects explores the captivating world of oversized arthropods that once roamed the Earth, delving into the science behind their remarkable sizes. It uncovers how specific environmental conditions, such as elevated atmospheric oxygen levels during the Carboniferous period, enabled these giants to thrive. Meganeura, a dragonfly with a 70-centimeter wingspan, exemplifies this era of insect gigantism. The book uniquely integrates paleontology, entomology, and climate science to understand what facilitated and constrained insect size, offering valuable insights into insect evolution and environmental influences.

 
The book progresses through different geological eras, analyzing fossil records and physiological studies. It examines the interplay between insect size and factors like predation from early reptiles and the evolution of plant life. Modern-day giants, such as the Goliath beetle, are also examined, providing a comparative analysis with their prehistoric counterparts.

 
By connecting fossil evidence with contemporary physiological and ecological findings, Giant Insects provides a comprehensive, data-driven perspective on insect gigantism and the environmental factors shaping life on Earth.

  • Nineteen Reservoirs - On Their Creation and the Promise of Water for New York City - cover

    Without the nineteen upstate reservoirs that supply its water, New York City as we know it would not exist today. 
     
     
     
    From 1907 to 1967, a network of reservoirs and aqueducts was built across more than one million acres in upstate New York, including Greene, Delaware, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties. This feat of engineering served to meet New York City's ever-increasing need for water, sustaining its inhabitants and cementing it as a center of industry. West of the Hudson, it meant that twenty-six villages, with their farms, forest lands, orchards, and quarries, were bought for a fraction of their value, demolished, and submerged, profoundly altering ecosystems in ways we will never fully appreciate. 
     
     
     
    This paradox of victory and loss is at the heart of Nineteen Reservoirs, Lucy Sante's meticulous account of how New York City secured its seemingly limitless fresh water supply, and why it cannot be taken for granted. In inimitable form, Sante plumbs the historical record to surface forgotten archives and images, bringing lost places back to life on the page. Her immaculately calibrated sensitivity honors both perspectives on New York City's reservoir system and helps us understand the full import of its creation.
