  This rediscovered classic memoir tells the incredible tale of a woman defying society's expectations to find freedom and peace in the adventure of a lifetime. 
   
   
   
  In 1934, the painter Christiane Ritter leaves her comfortable life in Austria and travels to the remote Arctic island of Spitsbergen, to spend a year there with her husband. She thinks it will be a relaxing trip, a chance to "read thick books in the remote quiet and, not least, sleep to my heart's content," but when Christiane arrives she is shocked to realize that they are to live in a tiny ramshackle hut on the shores of a lonely fjord, hundreds of miles from the nearest settlement, battling the elements every day, just to survive. 
   
   
   
  At first, Christiane is horrified by the freezing cold, the bleak landscape the lack of equipment and supplies . . . But as time passes, after encounters with bears and seals, long treks over the ice and months on end of perpetual night, she finds herself falling in love with the Arctic's harsh, otherworldly beauty, gaining a great sense of inner peace and a new appreciation for the sanctity of life.

  The world is racing to reinvent how it powers itself — yet every solution carries its own cost. Wind farms rise where wildlands once stretched untouched, lithium mines carve into deserts, and the dream of “clean” energy grows tangled in politics, inequality, and human ambition. 
  In When the Wind Stops, Alex Southwick takes readers behind the headlines of the global energy revolution. From Arctic oil rigs standing silent in thawing seas to the vast solar fields of Morocco and the wind-swept coasts of Denmark, Southwick meets the engineers, visionaries, and communities living through this historic shift. 
  This is not a simple story of progress or failure. It’s a portrait of transition — messy, imperfect, and deeply human. With characteristic clarity and empathy, Southwick explores what it means to change the very systems that built modern civilization, and the moral choices that come with it. 
  When the Wind Stops is a journey into the heart of our energy age — a reflection on power in every sense of the word, and a reminder that even as the wind falters, the will to adapt endures.

  Elephantiasis, also known as lymphatic filariasis, is a neglected tropical disease that has impacted millions of people worldwide, causing not only physical disability but also significant social and psychological suffering. While the disease is often overlooked in global health discussions, its consequences are far-reaching, affecting the lives of individuals, families, and entire communities. This book seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of lymphatic filariasis, focusing on its diagnosis, prevention, and treatment options, with the ultimate goal of contributing to the global effort to eliminate this debilitating disease. 
  Lymphatic filariasis is caused by parasitic worms transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes. These worms invade the lymphatic system, causing inflammation, severe swelling, and disfigurement. In its chronic form, the disease can lead to lifelong disability, including the development of elephantiasis—a condition characterized by massive swelling, often in the legs or genitalia. Despite its devastating effects, the disease is preventable and treatable, and significant strides have been made toward its global elimination. 
  This book is intended for a wide range of readers, including healthcare professionals, policymakers, public health officials, students, and individuals affected by lymphatic filariasis. It aims to bridge the knowledge gap by presenting detailed information on the disease’s pathophysiology, diagnostic techniques, and treatment options, while also exploring the social and economic challenges that hinder effective control. By providing evidence-based insights and practical recommendations, the book encourages a multi-faceted approach to tackling the disease, emphasizing the importance of prevention, early detection, and integrated care.
