  Throughout personal essays spiked with humor and natural science, archaeologist R. E. Burrillo widens his range beyond his popular Behind the Bears Ears. 
   
   
   
  After an upstate New York childhood and a bartending stint in New Orleans's French Quarter, seasonal resort work led R. E. Burrillo to the desert Southwest, whose redrock landscapes were a source of stability through mental and physical illness. In The Backwoods of Everywhere, archaeologist Burrillo excavates his past, examining Indigenous and tourist cultures, the complexities of American archaeology, and what it means to be a local. From the ancient canal systems of Phoenix, Arizona, to the modern Mayan communities of the Yucatan Peninsula, to the depths of the Grand Canyon, Burrillo brings listeners on an entertaining romp chock-full of history, ecology, cultural preservation, and personal stories. 
   
   
   
  In the vein of Bill Bryson, Tim Cahill, and Ellen Meloy, Burrillo's is a fresh voice in humor-spiked nature writing and cultural commentary. Running throughout the wide-ranging topics of The Backwoods of Everywhere are themes of place and locality, and how these vary between cultures and individuals. Marrying the intensely personal with the complex and technical, Burrillo's candid voice brings humor, wonder, irony, and wit to each thought-provoking essay.

  If We Act Now - the surprisingly...

  Join us on a journey around the globe and meet the enthusiasts, technologies, and decision-makers that are proving that humans are indeed capable of saving us from ourselves.  
  The challenges may be great, but there are a number of opportunities to stall climate change – perhaps even reverse it. This book offers a glimpse of how to do just that. It will explain how we can equip ourselves with food, clothing, shelter, energy, transport and all in all live good lives without negatively impacting the planet we live on.  
  ‘If We Act Now’ tells us about the barriers to action and how we can overcome them. About those who have led the way - and about how we can all play an important role in the great green transition desperately needed.  
  Written by the Danish independent media, Zetland, and supported financially by Climate Planet Foundation, this optimistic, enlightening and deeply profound book takes the reader on a journey around the world to provide insight into existing solutions to the climate crisis. 
  ‘If We Act Now’ is the ideal read for those interested in learning more about climate change and what we can do about it. Perfect for those who were gripped by Greta Thunberg's ´The Climate Book´ and want to know more.  
  The three authors from Zetland - Rasmus Thirup Beck, Mads Nyvold, and Thomas Hebsgaard - have over 20 years of combined experience writing and reporting on climate and energy issues. 
  Rasmus Thirup Beck (born 1978) has been covering climate since 2008, in both writing and audio and is always focusing on the human stories that lie at the centre. His work has gone through quite the evolution – from reporting on issues and their consequences to writing almost exclusively about solutions. Beck has freelanced for Zetland for four years. 
  Thomas Hebsgaard (born 1982) covers climate and energy for Zetland. He has wide experience in hard-hitting topics focusing on societal and global issues. Hebsgaard was practically brought up within the renewable energy industry through his father’s co-ownership of a 95 kilowatt Bonus wind turbine called Sleipner. 
  Mads Nyvold (born 1980) once aspired to become an analyst in the mining or oil industries, but that plan was redirected when he became aware of the movement to green energy. Nyvold has previously written for Zetland on resources and climate from the impractical to the global and political perspective.

  Mosaic of Planes

  Sea Stoltzner

  When Sea Stoltzner woke up in a county jail cell, he wasn't just confronted with the harsh reality of confinement—he was confronted with a mind he could no longer trust. Visions of fire tornadoes and cartoon figures were still vivid as the world around him insisted that they were symptoms of something deeply wrong. Sea was instantly labeled “crazy,” and told he wouldn’t survive prison. In his isolation, Sea learned to navigate a system built to punish rather than understand.  
   
  Mosaic of Planes pulls back the curtain on the stories we rarely hear—the ones told by people living in the chaos of untreated mental illness, stigma, and by a society quick to look away. It challenges the narratives we’re fed about fear and danger, and instead reveals the human being inside the crisis. 
   
  Honest, Hopeful, while blending moments of absurd situational comedy, Mosaic of Planes is a rare account of a journey through a fractured reality, institutional indifference, and the long, uneven path toward healing. It asks readers to reconsider what they think they know about mental illness—and to believe, even for a moment, that recovery is possible, and how people can return from one of the darkest places imaginable, a broken mind.

  A Light in the Tower - A New...

  With evocative storytelling and incisive research, Katie Rose Guest Pryal brings a new eye to the mental health crisis that higher education has faced for decades. Written from the perspective of a bipolar-autistic professor, A Light in the Tower is both a bracing account of the mental health crisis in higher education and a passionate and informed proposal for how to teach with mental health in mind. 
   
   
   
  Pryal contends that higher education's mental health crisis is the result of long-term systemic problems in education that demand nothing short of a revolution. She examines the anxiety that plagues campuses as a result of exploited and overworked contingent faculty and students, the shock events like COVID-19 and campus shootings that traumatize communities, the systemic and institutional burnout that affects higher education at every level, and the market-driven culture of toxic overwork. These are large-scale problems that need large-scale solutions. Addressing the stigma that haunts mental disability on campus, the ableism that hounds our teaching, and the cascade of mental health struggles that far too many faculty and students face, Pryal provides straightforward solutions to these complex challenges.
