Sinopsis

"Soap How" presents a fascinating journey through the science, history, and cultural significance of one of humanity's most fundamental innovations: soap. This comprehensive guide bridges the gap between traditional craft knowledge and modern scientific understanding, exploring how the simple combination of fats and alkali transformed into an essential component of human civilization.

 
The book carefully balances technical information with accessibility, making complex chemistry concepts understandable through clear analogies and practical examples. The text progresses logically through four main sections, beginning with fundamental chemistry and physics of soap making, then moving through traditional methods, industrial processes, and environmental considerations.

 
Readers discover intriguing historical connections, from ancient Babylonian soap making techniques to modern sustainable production methods. The book particularly shines in its exploration of saponification, demonstrating how this chemical process has evolved from basic crafting to sophisticated manufacturing while maintaining its core principles.

 
What sets this book apart is its holistic approach to soap making, connecting chemistry, environmental science, and public health in meaningful ways. Whether you're a crafting enthusiast, chemistry student, or sustainability advocate, the book offers valuable insights into both practical soap making and broader societal impacts.

 
Through careful examination of traditional methods and modern innovations, readers gain a comprehensive understanding of soap's role in personal wellbeing and environmental sustainability, all while developing practical skills for soap production and informed consumer choices.

    A book to help the ordinary birdwatcher appreciate the fascinating songs, stories, and science of common birds. 
     
     
     
    Jack Gedney's studies of birds provide resonant, affirming answers to the questions: Who is this bird? In what way is it beautiful? Why does it matter? Masterfully linking an abundance of poetic references with up-to-date biological science, Gedney shares his devotion to everyday Western birds in fifteen essays. Each essay illuminates the life of a single species and its relationship to humans, and how these species can help us understand birds in general. A dedicated birdwatcher and teacher, Gedney finds wonder not only in the speed and glistening beauty of the Anna's hummingbird, but also in her nest building. He acclaims the turkey vulture's and red-tailed hawk's roles in our ecosystem, and he venerates the inimitable California scrub jay's work planting acorns. Knowing that we hear birds much more often than we see them, Gedney offers his expert's ear to help us not only identify bird songs and calls but also understand what the birds are saying. The crowd at the suet feeder will never look quite the same again. Join Gedney in the enchanted world of these not-so-ordinary birds.
