Sinossi

Biodiversity Offset Law explores the use of legal frameworks to mitigate biodiversity loss through ecological compensation, such as habitat restoration. It examines how environmental policy mandates developers to offset ecological damage, focusing on legal frameworks, practical implementation challenges, and the ethical dimensions of assigning value to ecological resources. The book highlights how biodiversity offsets aim to achieve "no net loss", a concept where habitat restoration compensates for ecological damage from development. The book delves into the evolution of biodiversity offsets from mitigation banking to a global phenomenon. It critically assesses the effectiveness of legal frameworks in achieving genuine conservation outcomes, emphasizing the need for robust legal design and transparent management. Socially, it raises questions about environmental justice, as the benefits and burdens are often unevenly distributed, and scientifically, the book emphasizes the importance of accurate ecological assessments. The book progresses by introducing biodiversity offsets, examining legal frameworks across jurisdictions, analyzing practical challenges like ecological equivalence, and exploring ethical dimensions like commodification of nature. Ultimately, it offers recommendations for improving offset policies and assessing their effectiveness, arguing that without proper implementation, offsets risk becoming ineffective "paper exercises".

    James Webb’s life is the American dream in a nutshell. Born to teenage parents in Laurel, Mississippi, and faced with a future working in the town’s only two factories, James chose to change his fate and forge his own path—to become a titan of business, a mentor, and a philanthropist.

    James uses his own life to illustrate truths about success in life and in business, including: 
    • Failures happen, and resilience vanquishes failure. 
    • No lesson or experience is ever wasted. 
    • When opportunity presents itself, take the risk. 
    • A true entrepreneur works for no one. 
    • You cannot succeed on your own. 
    • And much more. 
     
    Resilient people never take their eye off where they’re going, even when they get knocked down. They refocus. Resilience isn’t worried about the odds. Resilience finds a way.

    Time's Second Arrow - Evolution...

    Of the codified laws of nature, only one inscribes a direction to time: the dreaded second law of thermodynamics, which declares that the disorder of a closed system tends to increase as time passes. New shoes eventually scuff, our bodies weaken and die. Yet our senses tell us that miraculous order constantly emerges, too: children grow and learn; spontaneous patterns manifest in murmurations of starlings. Can it be true that the laws of our universe mandate only dissolution? 
     
    In Time's Second Arrow, star scientists Robert M. Hazen and Michael L. Wong overturn more than a century of scientific canon, arguing that there must be a second "arrow of time"—a missing law of nature that explains how the marvelously complex constituents of our universe came to be. Evolution, they propose, is a universal phenomenon—not only in biology, but in the entire atomic, chemical, mineral, and physical universe. Showing how a natural process of selection for increasing function has shaped the universe, they explore how this new law could possibly help us identify life on other planets and understand the purpose and meaning of life on Earth in a new way. 
     
    Time's Second Arrow reveals how our cosmic inheritance includes a drive toward wondrous invention and progress—ultimately revising our understanding of the universe and our place within it.

    When handling the things of God, our method matters.  Everyone who thinks about God has a method for approaching the subject, whether they recognize it or not. A theological method addresses foundational questions such as: What is theology? How should we approach Scripture? What is the role of tradition, philosophy, and experience? How do we use theology in ministering to others? These questions are vital for anyone studying God and his Word—how one defines theology, sees its task, and uses its sources will shape one’s doctrine, for better or worse.  In The Method of Christian Theology, Rhyne Putman guides readers through the essential “first words” of systematic theology. Written for entry-level theology students, this book provides clear guidance for using theological sources, reasoning through difficult questions, and applying theological reflection in paper writing and preaching. By studying the foundations of theology, readers will be better equipped to serve God’s people in whatever ministry they are called to.
