It examines how the Antarctic Treaty System (ATS) has successfully maintained peace and promoted scientific research, while also addressing the growing pressures from climate change and potential resource exploitation. The book reveals how the ATS, established in 1959, suspended territorial claims, designating Antarctica as a zone dedicated to scientific exploration. The study of Antarctica offers valuable insights into international relations and conflict resolution.

 
The book delves into the evolution of Antarctic governance, focusing on the legal mechanisms designed to safeguard its fragile environment. It critically evaluates the effectiveness of existing environmental protection measures, considering the impacts of climate change, pollution, and tourism.

 
The book analyzes the legal regime governing resource activities, identifying loopholes and assessing the potential environmental and geopolitical consequences of resource exploitation.

 
Structured to provide a comprehensive understanding, the book progresses from the historical development of the ATS to an analysis of resource management and environmental protection, culminating in proposals for enhanced governance. By integrating legal analysis with environmental science and political strategy, Antarctica Laws provides a unique perspective, offering recommendations for strengthening Antarctic governance in the face of future challenges.

"Pure O" OCD - Letting Go of...

PhD Chad LeJeune

Pure obsessional obsessive-compulsive disorder, or "Pure O" OCD, is a subtype of OCD that is characterized by intrusive thoughts, images, or urges without any visible symptoms. These "hidden compulsions" can include constant reassurance seeking, obsessive regret or worry, and may involve avoidance, excessive preparation, and thought rituals. They can also cloud your judgement, causing you to make decisions based on fears and compulsions instead of your values. So, how do you break this obsessive cycle? 
 
 
 
Grounded in acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and written by a renowned ACT and anxiety expert, "Pure O" OCD explains the cognitive fusion underlying your obsessive thoughts, and how it can lead to social anxiety, not feeling good enough, panics and phobias, and even other disorders—which then reinforce the fusion in an unhelpful, positive feedback loop. Using the five skills in this book—labeling, letting go, mindfulness, purpose, and acceptance—you'll learn how to finally break free of the struggle, worrying, and avoidance that keep you stuck. 
 
 
 
With practice, you'll find that you can counter your anxiety and obsessive thoughts with your own, values-based narrative, and learn how to better accept your thoughts and feelings, so that you can proceed freely and purposefully toward a life that reflects what matters most to you.

Uncommon Valor on Iwo Jima - The...

James H Hallas

The epic Battle of Iwo Jima is recounted through the stories of twenty-eight American soldiers who showed uncommon valor during one of WWII’s most bitter conflicts. When the smoke cleared on Iwo Jima in March of 1945, nineteen-thousand American Marines had been wounded and seven-thousand were dead, a casualty rate of nearly thirty-nine percent. Lasting over a month, Iwo was the Marines’ bloodiest battle of the Second World War and the only Pacific battle in which a U.S. landing force suffered more casualties than it inflicted. It was also the most highly decorated single engagement in Marine Corps history.  This volume captures the bravery of those who fought in that epic battle through the stories of twenty-two Marines and five Navy personnel who received the Medal of Honor in recognition of their gallantry under fire.
