  Dispossessing the Wilderness -...

  National parks like Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Glacier preserve some of this country's most cherished wilderness landscapes. While visions of pristine, uninhabited nature led to the creation of these parks, they also inspired policies of Indian removal. By contrasting the native histories of these places with the links between Indian policy developments and preservationist efforts, this work examines the complex origins of the national parks and the troubling consequences of the American wilderness ideal. The first study to place national park history within the context of the early reservation era, it details the ways that national parks developed into one of the most important arenas of contention between native peoples and non-Indians in the twentieth century.

  Parasites are among the most successful and adaptable organisms on Earth, yet they often go unnoticed. From microscopic protozoa to large intestinal worms, these creatures have evolved remarkable strategies to exploit their hosts for survival. They infiltrate nearly every ecosystem, from the deepest oceans to the highest mountains, shaping the health, behavior, and evolution of countless species, including humans. Despite their negative reputation, parasites play an integral role in maintaining ecological balance, influencing biodiversity, and even driving evolutionary changes. 
  One of the most astonishing aspects of parasites is their sheer ubiquity. They infect nearly every living organism, from plants and insects to birds and mammals. Some parasites, like malaria-causing Plasmodium, have coexisted with humans for thousands of years, evolving alongside us in an ongoing battle for survival. Others, such as the toxoplasmosis-causing Toxoplasma gondii, subtly manipulate the behavior of their hosts to improve their chances of transmission. The ability of parasites to adapt to new environments and hosts makes them a fascinating subject of study, particularly as climate change and globalization increase their spread. 
  While parasites are often viewed as destructive, their influence extends far beyond causing disease. Many parasites regulate host populations, preventing overgrowth and maintaining ecological stability. Some even shape the behaviors of their hosts in ways that benefit entire ecosystems.

  A lively exploration of how invisibility has gone from science fiction to fact 
   
   
   
  Is it possible for something or someone to be made invisible? This question, which has intrigued authors of science fiction for over a century, has become a headline-grabbing topic of scientific research. 
   
   
   
  In this book, science writer and optical physicist Gregory J. Gbur traces the science of invisibility from its sci-fi origins in the nineteenth-century writings of authors such as H. G. Wells and Fitz James O'Brien to modern stealth technology, invisibility cloaks, and metamaterials. He explores the history of invisibility and its science and technology connections, including the discovery of the electromagnetic spectrum, the development of the atomic model, and quantum theory. He shows how invisibility has moved from fiction to reality, and he questions the hidden paths that lie ahead for researchers. 
   
   
   
  This is not only the story of invisibility but also the story of humankind's understanding of the nature of light itself, and of the many fascinating figures whose discoveries advanced this knowledge.

  An acclaimed science writer tells the story of cosmic projectiles that may be on a collision course with our Earth. 
   
   
   
  The impact of an asteroid led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. Could another giant cosmic missile soon be heading our way? In Target Earth, acclaimed Dutch astronomy writer Govert Schilling provides a full account of what we know, and need to know, about all the extraterrestrial matter constantly bombarding our planet—from microscopic dust particles and space debris to massive meteorites, comets, and asteroids. 
   
   
   
  Drawing upon the latest scientific discoveries, Schilling explores virtually every aspect of cosmic impacts—from small meteorites to devastating collisions, from the craters that marked our planet's surface to the impacts that left their mark on other celestial bodies, and from searches for near-miss lumps of rock to ways of protecting humanity from an assault from the cosmos. Along the way, he considers near misses in the past and the possibility of others in the future and ponders the positive side of these visitations from space: If our planet had not been the target of cosmic rubble from its very formation, life on Earth would likely never have gotten started.
