Sinopse

Weirdest Transportation Methods explores the captivating history of how humans have moved themselves and goods using incredibly inventive and often bizarre means. Beyond the familiar car or train, discover the real-world systems that reveal human creativity and adaptability. For instance, imagine using camels in bustling urban settings or even attempting to ride ostriches! The book emphasizes that necessity, innovation, and sometimes sheer eccentricity have all played roles in shaping travel history.  
The book investigates transportation methods across three key areas: unique uses of animal power, surprising aquatic transport including underwater vehicles, and ingenious solutions adapted to challenging terrains. Each chapter builds on the last, supported by historical accounts and technical drawings, progressing from reindeer caravans to passenger submarines and even ice roads built over frozen rivers.  
By examining these forgotten or overlooked systems, this book offers a fresh perspective on human ingenuity and technological advancement.

    Wild American Ginseng - Lessons...

    Wild American ginseng, America's most famous medicinal plant, is in trouble. In plain prose, James McGraw explains why as he translates the latest in ecological and conservation science findings on this unassuming understory herb. As the world's foremost authority on wild ginseng, McGraw is uniquely poised to present this story based on more than twenty years of uninterrupted field research. 
     
     
     
    McGraw traces the dramatic ecological history of ginseng in North America, documenting the ginseng-centric view of a world increasingly dominated by both direct and indirect actions of humans. Far more than a story of a single plant species, ginseng becomes a parable, a canary in a coal mine, for what is happening to our dwindling wild species across the globe. Documenting lingchi (death by a thousand cuts) in human interactions with wild species, McGraw shows us the evidence of our slowly eroding biodiversity and our diminishing global biotreasury. 
     
     
     
    Beyond merely documenting our destruction of nature, McGraw also offers a pathway to an optimistic future for ginseng and the wild species with whom we share the planet. He illuminates how a dramatic expansion of our commitment to sharing the planet with our fellow planetary companions is the key to preservation; and now is the time to do so.
