Sinossi

Fire-resistant grass plants are botanical species that possess inherent qualities and adaptive features which enable them to withstand the threat of wildfires and reduce their susceptibility to ignition. While these plants are not impervious to fire, they exhibit characteristics that significantly mitigate the risk of fire propagation, making them vital components of fire-adapted ecosystems and landscapes.
 
One of the defining attributes of fire-resistant grass plants is their relatively low flammability. These plants typically have a higher moisture content in their leaves and stems, making them less prone to rapid ignition. Additionally, their growth patterns often include a clumping or bunching habit, which can slow the spread of fire as gaps between individual plants reduce the continuous fuel available to the flames. Moisture retention is a key factor contributing to the fire resistance of these grass plants. Their ability to hold moisture, even during dry periods, creates a barrier that inhibits fire from taking hold. In contrast, dry and highly flammable plants can readily ignite and accelerate the progress of a wildfire.
 
Furthermore, many fire-resistant grass species possess adaptations that facilitate post-fire recovery. They can resprout from underground structures such as rhizomes, bulbs, or corms after a fire has passed. This capacity for regeneration enables these grasses to recolonize burned areas swiftly, aiding in the restoration of ecosystems and reducing soil erosion. The significance of fire-resistant grass plants extends beyond their individual properties. Incorporating these plants into landscaping and vegetation management strategies can enhance fire safety and create more resilient communities. By creating defensible spaces around structures, where fire-resistant plants are strategically positioned, the potential for wildfires to encroach on buildings is reduced.

    The Gilded Age and the dawn of the 20th century are often remembered as an era full of monopolies, trusts, and economic giants in heavy industries like oil and steel. Men like Andrew Carnegie built empires like Carnegie Steel, and financiers like J.P. Morgan merged and consolidated them. The era also made names like Astor, Cooke, and Vanderbilt instantly recognizable across the globe. Over time, the unfathomable wealth generated by the businesses made the individuals on top incredibly rich, and that in turn led to immense criticism and an infamous epithet used to rail against them: robber barons.  
    	Dozens of men were called “robber barons”, and the industrial might wielded by some of these men in the late 19th century directly led to a public backlash and made President Teddy Roosevelt the “trust buster”, and there has since been countless regulations to attempt to avoid the types of monopolies found over 100 years ago. However, many 20th century historians and writers pushed back against the allegations hurled at the “robber barons” and even took issue with the name. Libertarian writer John Stossel argued, “They weren't robbers, because they didn't steal from anyone, and they weren't barons - they were born poor...” Ironically, one of America’s most famous robber barons, Andrew Carnegie, epitomized the American Dream, migrating with his poor family to America in the mid-19th century and rising to the top of the business world in his adopted country. And like Carnegie, railroad tycoon Cornelius Vanderbilt set a precedent of sorts with his philanthropy, most notably his gift to Vanderbilt University, which bears his name. Similarly, the West Coast's most famous railroad mogul became Leland Stanford, who also bequeathed a prestigious university after making it to the top of the industry.

    Who is 'Mad'? Who is Not? And Who Decides?
    In this fascinating new exploration of mental illness, Professor Brendan Kelly examines 'madness' in history and how we have responded to it over the centuries.
    We travel from the psychiatric institutions of modern India to scientific studies of the brain in Victorian England. We discover the beginnings of formal asylum care and witness the experimental therapies of the cavernous psychiatric hospitals of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Ireland, England, Belgium, Italy, Germany and the United States.
    Covering lobotomy and the Nazis' Aktion T4 campaign, as well as Freud, psychoanalysis, cognitive behavioural therapy and neuroscience, In Search of Madness examines the shift in recent times from 'psychobabble' to 'neurobabble'.
    This is an all encompassing history of one of the most basic fears to haunt the human psyche – madness – and it concludes with a passionate manifesto for change: four proposals to make mental health services more effective, accessible and just.
