Sinopse

Water Use In Agriculture addresses the critical intersection of agriculture, food production, and escalating water scarcity, particularly how irrigation techniques impact crop yields. It highlights that agriculture accounts for about 70% of global freshwater withdrawals, emphasizing the urgent need for efficient water management. The book uniquely blends environmental concerns with economic stability, recognizing that sustainable agricultural practices are vital for global food security.

 
The book progresses by first outlining the evolution of irrigation from ancient methods to modern technologies, analyzing their benefits and drawbacks. It then considers the escalating threat of water scarcity due to climate change and over-extraction, leading to consequences for food production and rural livelihoods.

 
It concludes by presenting conservation strategies, including innovations like precision irrigation and policy interventions such as water pricing. This book stands out by offering practical applications of research findings, providing actionable recommendations for farmers, policymakers, and stakeholders. It tackles debates surrounding water allocation and regulation, offering evidence-based solutions for sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in water resources or environmental sustainability.

    This audiobook narrated by Jennifer Woodward provides the first comprehensive account of menopause from prehistory to today
    
    Are the ways we look at menopause all wrong? Historian Susan Mattern says yes, and The Slow Moon Climbs reveals just how wrong we have been. Taking readers from the rainforests of Paraguay to the streets of Tokyo, Mattern draws on historical, scientific, and cultural research to reveal how our perceptions of menopause developed from prehistory to today. For most of human history, people had no word for menopause and did not view it as a medical condition. Rather, in traditional foraging and agrarian societies, it was a transition to another important life stage. This book, then, introduces new ways of understanding life beyond fertility.
    
    Mattern examines the fascinating "Grandmother Hypothesis"—which argues for the importance of elders in the rearing of future generations—as well as other evolutionary theories that have generated surprising insights about menopause and the place of older people in society. She looks at agricultural communities where households relied on postreproductive women for the family's survival. And she explores the emergence of menopause as a medical condition in the Western world. It was only around 1700 that people began to see menopause as a dangerous pathological disorder linked to upsetting symptoms that rendered women weak and vulnerable. Mattern argues that menopause was another syndrome, like hysterical suffocation or melancholia, that emerged or reemerged in early modern Europe in tandem with the rise of a professional medical class.
    The Slow Moon Climbs casts menopause, at last, in the positive light it deserves—not only as an essential life stage, but also as a key factor in the history of human flourishing.

    The primary mission of military intelligence in the United States Army is to provide timely, relevant, accurate, and synchronized intelligence and electronic warfare support to tactical, operational and strategic-level commanders. The Army’s intelligence components produce intelligence both for Army use and for sharing across the national intelligence community. The military will subject someone to a polygraph for several reasons: If that person needs to access confidential files; if they are accused of leaking government secrets; if they are accused of terrorism or of being a spy; if they are a foreign national who needs access to classified material, and several other reasons. The following is a 1960s Army training recording with information on administering a lie detector test.

    By the end of World War I, Albert Einstein had become the face of the new science of theoretical physics and had made some powerful enemies. One of those enemies, Nobel Prize winner Philipp Lenard, spent a career trying to discredit him. Their story of conflict, pitting Germany’s most widely celebrated Jew against the Nazi scientist who was to become Hitler’s chief advisor on physics, had an impact far exceeding what the scientific community felt at the time. Indeed, their mutual antagonism affected the direction of science long after 1933, when Einstein took flight to America and changed the history of two nations. The Man Who Stalked Einstein details the tense relationship between Einstein and Lenard, their ideas and actions, during the eventful period between World War I and World War II.
