Sinopse

"High Peak Climbs" offers a comprehensive exploration of high-altitude mountaineering, masterfully weaving together the critical elements of human physiology, technical climbing expertise, and environmental challenges faced by climbers in extreme conditions. The book uniquely combines scientific research with practical applications, examining both successful summits and failed attempts above 5,000 meters to provide readers with a complete understanding of high-altitude climbing dynamics.

 
Through meticulously structured chapters, the book progresses from fundamental concepts of altitude adaptation and physiology to advanced expedition planning. Readers gain valuable insights into how the human body responds to reduced oxygen levels above 8,000 meters, supported by current medical research and real-world acclimatization protocols. The technical sections delve into crucial aspects of route assessment and equipment selection, using prominent climbs on peaks like K2, Everest, and Annapurna as practical case studies.

 
What sets this book apart is its interdisciplinary approach, connecting mountaineering to fields such as meteorology, materials science, and sports medicine. The content serves both as a practical guide for serious climbers and a reference work for professionals, incorporating GPS mapping data, atmospheric readings, and summit success statistics. The book also tackles contemporary debates within the mountaineering community, including the impact of commercial expeditions and the use of supplemental oxygen, making it an invaluable resource for anyone serious about high-altitude climbing.

  • The Honey Trap - How the Good Intentions of Urban Beekeepers Risk Ecological Disaster - cover

    The Honey Trap - How the Good...

    The last decade has seen an explosion of urban beekeeping in the US, Canada, and Europe, a well-intentioned response to perceived threats to the global honey bee population. Many thousands of people have taken up this seemingly environmentally friendly hobby, tending backyard and rooftop hives (or paying a company to do so) and encouraging honey bees to make honey and pollinate flowers. What could be wrong with that? 
     
     
     
    Quite a lot, in fact. In The Honey Trap, scientist and author Dana Church demonstrates that despite reports to the contrary, honey bees are nowhere near extinction. Rather, their nurturing by urban beekeepers is having far-reaching and potentially devastating consequences for the 19,999 other species of bees on the planet, with knock-on effects for plants, both cultivated and wild, and our ecosystems more generally. 
     
     
     
    With engaging storytelling and a wealth of knowledge about bees and their ways, Church unravels the complexities of human interactions with our winged friends and demonstrates how dangerously selfish our thinking can be. It's a wake-up call for humanity to embrace sustainable practices and protect these vital pollinators before it's too late.

    With evocative storytelling and incisive research, Katie Rose Guest Pryal brings a new eye to the mental health crisis that higher education has faced for decades. Written from the perspective of a bipolar-autistic professor, A Light in the Tower is both a bracing account of the mental health crisis in higher education and a passionate and informed proposal for how to teach with mental health in mind. 
     
     
     
    Pryal contends that higher education's mental health crisis is the result of long-term systemic problems in education that demand nothing short of a revolution. She examines the anxiety that plagues campuses as a result of exploited and overworked contingent faculty and students, the shock events like COVID-19 and campus shootings that traumatize communities, the systemic and institutional burnout that affects higher education at every level, and the market-driven culture of toxic overwork. These are large-scale problems that need large-scale solutions. Addressing the stigma that haunts mental disability on campus, the ableism that hounds our teaching, and the cascade of mental health struggles that far too many faculty and students face, Pryal provides straightforward solutions to these complex challenges.
