Synopsis

Survival Without Food explores the science behind human endurance during starvation and offers practical survival strategies. The book examines how the body adapts, initially utilizing glucose reserves before transitioning to glycogen, fat, and eventually muscle breakdown. Understanding these metabolic stages is crucial in emergency medicine and for anyone interested in the limits of human physiology. One intriguing fact is the body's ability to enter ketosis, a metabolic state where it uses fat for energy, extending survival time.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with fundamental concepts of energy metabolism and then delves into specific stages like ketosis and organ failure. It highlights environmental factors and details techniques for conserving energy and procuring alternative resources. This fact-based analysis challenges common misconceptions about starvation, providing a scientific basis for survival strategies applicable in wilderness survival and disaster preparedness situations. It emphasizes that while surviving without food is challenging, understanding the body's responses can significantly improve survival odds.

    Walking with Spring

    In 1948, the Appalachian Trail had been a continuous, 2,000-mile footpath for eleven years, but no one had walked its length alone in a continuous journey—until Earl Shaffer, a quiet Pennsylvanian, became a hiking legend and the first of what is now more than 5,500 A.T. "thru-hikers," walking from Georgia to Maine as spring arrived to each area. In 1998, he hiked again as a 50th-anniversary celebration, to far greater publicity. This is the lyrical account of his fabled 1948 walk. 
     
     
     
    Written soon after the first of his three thru-hikes, Walking with Spring chronicles Shaffer's adventures along a path that at the time was showing neglect of the war years and has since been rerouted significantly to its permanent location. His simply stated story has served as an inspiration for more than 9,000 men and women who have since followed in his footsteps . . . and many more who have tried.

    In Residual Governance, Gabrielle Hecht dives into the wastes of gold and uranium mining in South Africa to explore how communities, experts, and artists fight for infrastructural and environmental justice. Hecht outlines how mining in South Africa is a prime example of what she theorizes as residual governance—the governance of waste and discard, governance that is purposefully inefficient, and governance that treats people and places as waste and wastelands. She centers the voices of people who resist residual governance and the harms of toxic mining waste to highlight how mining's centrality to South African history reveals the links between race, capitalism, the state, and the environment. In this way, Hecht shows how the history of mining in South Africa and the resistance to residual governance and environmental degradation is a planetary story: the underlying logic of residual governance lies at the heart of contemporary global racial capitalism and is a major accelerant of the Anthropocene.
