Sinossi

Root Digging Life explores the profound connection between rural communities and the foraging of root vegetables, revealing how this practice has shaped social structures, ecological knowledge, and resilience. Did you know that specific foraging techniques, including when and how to harvest, have been passed down through generations, reflecting a deep understanding of plant-human interactions? Or that root vegetables have historically served as vital buffers against famine and economic hardship? The book examines this relationship through three lenses: the ecological understanding needed for successful foraging, the social dynamics within families and communities during root harvesting, and the historical context of dependence on these foraged foods. It uniquely combines ethnobotany, oral histories, and archival research to elevate the voices of community members and challenge conventional views of rural life. By delving into topics like sustainable living and food security, Root Digging Life demonstrates how traditional ecological knowledge remains relevant today. The book begins by establishing the ecological foundations of root vegetable foraging, then explores the social structures that underpin this practice, before tracing the historical trends of reliance on root vegetables. This comprehensive approach offers valuable insights for students, scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the enduring connection between humans and nature.

A New War on Cancer - The...

Kristina Marusic, Philip J....

For more than fifty years, we have been waging, but not winning, the war on cancer. The astonishing news is that up to two-thirds of all cancer cases are linked to preventable environmental causes. If we can stop cancer before it begins, why don't we? 
 
 
 
That was the question that motivated Kristina Marusic's revelatory inquiry into cancer prevention. They recognize that we will never reduce cancer rates without ridding our lives of the chemicals that increasingly trigger this deadly disease. 
 
 
 
One scientist grew up without seeing examples of Indian-American women in the field, yet went on to make shocking discoveries about racial disparities in cancer risk. Another leader knew her calling was children's health, but realized only later in her career that kids can be harmed by invisible pollutants at their daycares. 
 
 
 
For these individuals, the fight has become personal. And it certainly is personal for Berry, a young woman whose battle with breast cancer is woven throughout these pages. Marusic shows that, collectively, we have the power to prevent many cases like Berry's. The war on cancer is winnable—if we revolutionize the way we fight.
