Sinopsis

"High Altitude Reaction" explores the body's response to the unique challenges of high-altitude environments, where oxygen is scarce. It examines both immediate reactions, such as increased heart rate, and long-term acclimatization processes, like changes in red blood cell production. Understanding these physiological adaptations is crucial, given the increasing popularity of high-altitude tourism and residence in mountainous regions. The book notably highlights the critical role of emergency oxygen and the limits of human performance when facing oxygen deprivation, also known as hypoxia.

 
The book systematically progresses from basic physiological principles to practical strategies for preventing and treating altitude sickness. It emphasizes evidence-based approaches, drawing from field studies and laboratory experiments. A key focus is on acclimatization schedules and medication use, offering actionable information for those venturing into high-altitude settings. The information presented emphasizes the importance of understanding and respecting the body’s limits.

 
This book uniquely bridges the gap between scientific research and practical application, making it valuable for outdoor enthusiasts, medical professionals, and researchers in related fields like exercise physiology and environmental physiology.

    Love Your Mother - 50 States 50...

    From elder voices opposing the Dakota Pipeline to young people running for office to advocate for change, every day we see real-life stories about how women are making a collective difference on climate justice. Women are also disproportionately impacted by climate change and thus are critical to transforming society away from dependence on fossil fuels and toward renewable energy and environmental equity. 
     
     
     
    As a mother and a professor of environmental education, Mallory McDuff wanted to give her two daughters and her students a roadmap to engage in climate justice in their communities, rather than be left feeling paralyzed by the enormity of the problem. She set out to find women of diverse ages, backgrounds, and vocations—one from each of the fifty US states—as inspiration for a new kind of leadership focused on the heart of the climate crisis. Love Your Mother lifts up the stories of these women working toward a viable future, from farmer and rancher Donna Kilpatrick in Arkansas to writer Latria Graham in South Carolina. 
     
     
     
    From Alabama to Alaska, from Wisconsin to Wyoming, these women are poets, physicians, climate scientists, students, farmers, writers, documentary filmmakers, and more. Their work lights the way for conversation and collective action in our homes and in the world. It's time we follow their lead.

    *Walter Russell's* *A New Concept of the Universe* offers a revolutionary perspective on the nature of reality, blending science, philosophy, and metaphysics to present a unified model of the cosmos. In this groundbreaking work, Russell challenges conventional scientific theories about atomic structure, energy, and matter, proposing instead a dynamic, rhythmic universe governed by principles of balance and unity. He emphasizes the interconnectedness of all things, where opposites such as light and darkness, motion and stillness, continually interplay to sustain the cosmic order. Russell's work seeks to bridge the gap between science and spirituality, offering readers a profound understanding of the universe's underlying intelligence and the role of consciousness in shaping reality. Through this book, he invites readers to reconsider humanity's place in the cosmos and embrace a more holistic vision of existence.

    As Charles Darwin suggested more than a century ago, the differences between animals and humans are of degree and not of kind. Not long ago, ethologists denied that animals had emotions or true intelligence. Now, we know that rats laugh when tickled, magpies mourn as they cover the departed with greenery, female whales travel thousands of miles for annual reunions with their gal pals, seals navigate by the stars, bears hum when happy, and crows slide down snowy rooftops for fun. 
     
    In engaging text, photographs, and infographics, Inside Animal Hearts and Minds showcases fascinating and heart-warming examples of animal emotion and cognition that will foster wonder and empathy. Learn about an orangutan who does “macramé”, monkeys that understand the concept of money, and rats that choose friendship over food. Even language, math, and logic are no longer exclusive to humans. Prairie dogs have their own complex vocabularies to describe human intruders, parrots name their chicks, sea lions appear capable of deductive thinking akin to a 10-year-old child’s, and bears, lemurs, parrots, and other animals demonstrate numerical cognition. 
     
    In a world where a growing body of scientific research is closing the gap between the human and nonhuman, Inside Animal Hearts and Minds invites us to change the way we view animals, the world, and our place in it.
