Sinossi

Cloud Classification reveals the intricate language of clouds, explaining how these atmospheric formations are systematically categorized by altitude, shape, and associated weather patterns. Understanding cloud classification is crucial for meteorology, climate science, and connecting with nature. The book traces the evolution from subjective observation to the standardized system of the World Meteorological Organization's International Cloud Atlas, highlighting Luke Howard’s pivotal 19th-century work that brought scientific rigor to cloud identification. Did you know that cloud formations can indicate upcoming weather events, acting as visible signals in the sky?

 
The book progresses from basic principles of cloud formation to detailed explorations of ten principal cloud genera, such as Cirrus, Cumulus, and Stratus, examining their species and varieties. It also delves into formation mechanisms like convection and frontal systems. Emphasizing practical applications, it incorporates visual aids, meteorological data, and case studies to illustrate the relationship between cloud types and weather patterns. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of weather forecasting and climate modeling, and the ability to interpret the sky's cues.

Right Down + Circle - Tony...

Cole Nowicki

An exuberant, incisive look at how Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater transformed a culture
		 
Going from a hobby toy for surfers to an Olympic sport, skateboarding has had a tumultuous history. Today, professional skateboarders land endorsement deals with Nike and Adidas, while popular television series like HBO’s Betty tell the stories of diverse crews of skaters living in New York City. So how did a fledgling subculture rise from its near-death knell in the ’90s to become ubiquitous today? It was simply a matter of finding the right messenger.
		 
In 1999, the bestselling video game Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater was released, and a new generation was exposed to skateboarding culture right in their very own homes. Kids and adults alike could now spend hours playing as actual skateboarders, learning the vernacular, listening to the music skateboarders loved, and having fun onscreen before trying to skate IRL in the driveway.
		 
Right, Down + Circle explores how a video game starring the most famous pro skater in the world brought skateboarding culture — and its ever-shifting markers of music, subversion, and coolness — to the masses and ultimately transformed the culture it borrowed from in the process.

The Just Kitchen - Invitations...

Anna Woofenden, Derrick Weston

Join the call of a just kitchen: where meal preparation is as much an act of resistance against injustice as marches and protests. 
 
 
 
For food and faith writers and podcasters Derrick Weston and Anna Woofenden, The Just Kitchen is about a passion for food, sharing meals, showing hospitality, and understanding cultures, faith traditions, food histories, and local foodways. 
 
 
 
Their authentic podcast conversations spill over the pages of this book and explore how the kitchen can be a place where the things we care about most in the world are reflected in the foods we prepare and the way we prepare them. In a world where disconnection from the earth, our food, our faith, and each other is becoming the norm, Weston and Woofenden bring together voices of hope who are working for a world of organic reconnections. They invite us to dig deeply into the complexity of ecology and food systems, as well as how faith communities are connected to them. 
 
 
 
This is an invitation to reprioritize the kitchen as a space for healing, community, activism, and celebration. Be inspired to see the sacred in the daily mundane, forge connection with the people and earth around you, and join the call of a just kitchen.
