Sinopsis

Ocean Tides Sing examines the profound impact of modernization on Polynesian fishing communities, focusing on how traditional maritime traditions intersect with tourism and technology. These island nations face challenges balancing cultural preservation with economic development, particularly as motorboats alter traditional fishing practices and tourism places strain on marine ecosystems. The book highlights how these communities are adapting to maintain their livelihoods and cultural identities amidst ecological concerns.

 
The book explores the evolution of Polynesian fishing, the socio-economic impact of tourism, and ecological consequences. It contrasts historical fishing techniques, deeply connected to the ocean, with the effects of motorized vessels and market-driven economies. By analyzing these intertwined issues through ethnographic research, interviews, and environmental data, Ocean Tides Sing proposes ways to integrate traditional knowledge, modern technology, and responsible tourism for sustainable development.

 
Structured in three parts, the book begins by establishing the historical and cultural context of Polynesian fishing. It then investigates the impact of motorboats and tourism through specific island case studies, analyzing economic data and social dynamics. Finally, it synthesizes these findings to suggest strategies for community empowerment, ecological stewardship, and cultural heritage preservation.

    The author of acclaimed memoirs about life on a French olive farm explores the larger history and culture of the Mediterranean delicacy. Carol Drinkwater has a passion for olive trees and the fruit they bear—“bitter berries” that are transformed into savory delights and pressed into precious oil. Already intimately familiar with the fruit thanks to her olive farm in the South of France, she decided to travel throughout the Mediterranean basin—from Marseille to Malta, Israel to Tunisia—in a quest to learn about their ancient history, their spread throughout the world, and the tastes and traditions they represent. A culinary travelogue and a celebration of a humble, healthful food that inspires devotion among so many, The Olive Route is filled with unusual characters and fascinating anecdotes from “a storyteller of great economy and deftness” (The Telegraph). “Drinkwater has a sharp eye for character, and the people who populate The Olive Route will not disappoint her fans.” —The Independent

    Modern Man ~ Neanderthal with Manners

    was to compare it to our relatively recent ancestors from just a hundred thousand years or so 
    - The Neanderthals. 
    Would they have been as cruel to their fellow beings as possibly we are today. What does it mean to be classified as 
    MODERN ! A modern Human ?

    This program is read by Earphones Award–winning narrator Edoardo Ballerini."Edoardo Ballerini reads my books exceptionally well. He gets my pacing, the inflections of muted irony, the anxiety of loss, the search for meaning that my prose on paper isn’t always able to convey—he gets it all. He gets me. A writer couldn't be luckier." —Andre AcimanA Boston Globe Best Nonfiction Book of 2011. Celebrated as one of the most poignant stylists of his generation, André Aciman has written a luminous series of linked essays about time, place, identity, and art that show him at his very finest. From beautiful and moving pieces about the memory evoked by the scent of lavender; to meditations on cities like Barcelona, Rome, Paris, and New York; to his sheer ability to unearth life secrets from an ordinary street corner, Alibis reminds the reader that Aciman is a master of the personal essay.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
