    Civil engineering is a multifaceted field that intersects with many aspects of our daily lives. It involves the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of infrastructure that supports modern society, including buildings, bridges, roads, railways, airports, water supply and treatment systems, wastewater treatment plants, and more. Civil engineers collaborate with architects, urban planners, environmental scientists, and other professionals to create functional and resilient structures that meet the needs of communities while considering factors like safety, sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and environmental impact.  
    They use advanced technologies such as computer-aided design (CAD), geographic information systems (GIS), and Building Information Modeling (BIM) to optimize their designs and streamline project management processes. Moreover, civil engineering encompasses various specialized fields, including structural engineering (which focuses on designing safe and efficient structures), geotechnical engineering (which deals with soil and rock mechanics), transportation engineering (which involves designing and managing transportation systems), environmental engineering (which addresses pollution control and sustainable resource management), and water resources engineering (which focuses on water supply, flood control, and hydrology). Overall, civil engineering plays a crucial role in shaping the physical infrastructure of societies and ensuring their long-term sustainability and resilience.

    A fascinating exploration of the natural history of scent and human perceptions of fragrance from the viewpoint of plant and pollinator 
     
     
     
    Plants have long harnessed the chemical characteristics of aromatic compounds to shape the world around them. Frankincense resin from the genus Boswellia seals injured tissues and protects trees from invading pathogens. Jasmine produces a molecule called linalool that attracts pollinating moths with its flowery scent. Tobacco uses a similarly sweet-smelling compound called benzyl acetone to attract pollinators. Only recently in the evolutionary history of plants, however, have humans learned to co-opt their fragrances to seduce, heal, protect, and alter moods themselves. 
     
     
      
    In this wide-ranging and accessible new book, biologist-turned-perfumer Elise Vernon Pearlstine turns our human-centered perception of fragrance on its head and investigates plants' evolutionary reasons for creating aromatic molecules. Delving into themes of spirituality, wealth, power, addiction, royalty, fantasy, and more, Pearlstine uncovers the natural history of aromatic substances and their intersection with human culture and civilization.
