  A Road Running Southward -...

  In 1867, John Muir set out on foot to explore the botanical wonders of the South, keeping a detailed journal of his adventures as he traipsed from Kentucky southward to Florida. One hundred and fifty years later, on a similar whim, veteran Atlanta reporter Dan Chapman recreated Muir's journey to see for himself how nature has fared since Muir's time. Channeling Muir, he uses humor, keen observation, and a deep love of place to celebrate the South's natural riches. 
   
   
   
  Each chapter touches upon a local ecological problem—moving between John Muir's vivid descriptions of a lush botanical paradise and the myriad environmental problems facing the South today. Along the way he talks to locals with deep ties to the land—scientists, hunters, politicians, and even a Muir impersonator—who describe the changes they've witnessed and what it will take to accommodate a fast-growing population without destroying the natural beauty and a cherished connection to nature. 
   
   
   
  A Road Running Southward is part travelogue, part environmental cri de coeur, and paints a picture of a South under siege. It is a passionate appeal, a call to action to save one of the loveliest and most biodiverse regions of the world by understanding what we have to lose if we do nothing.

  What happens when life throws together a busy, enthusiastic, doctor-daughter and her bereaved, disenchanted, dependent father? What happens when science meets stubbornness and a parent needs parenting? 
  Following her mother’s death, Dr Helena Popovic puts her medical training and beliefs to the test when she becomes the carer for her elderly father, who has encroaching dementia. 
  A passionate medical practitioner and international speaker, Helena finds herself living out everything she preached. 
  This moving story is part personal diary, part scientific treatise and part practical guide, woven together with humorous anecdotes. Above all, it’s an inspiring account of a daughter in search of her father: the man beyond the grief, despair, depression and dementia. 
  This timeless book deals with a complex issue many of us will need to face: how best to care for elderly parents or loved ones who can no longer care for themselves. What do those in our care most need from us? 
  Are there steps we can take to defy dementia and build a better brain? Are we able to sharpen our intellect, tap into brain potential we never knew we had, and prevent the cognitive decline most of us believe is inevitable with ageing? 
  The answer is an unequivocal YES! 
  Facts inform but stories transform. The facts in this book will change your thinking – the story in this book will change your life. 
  ‘Who would have thought that dementia could be such an adventure—that adventure, in fact, prevents dementia!’ Dr Sarah Woodbury FRANZCOG

  Newly updated: “Invasive plants are ecological tumors that degrade food webs wherever they go. The third edition of [this book] is an invaluable reference.” —Douglas Tallamy, New York Times–bestselling author of Nature’s Best Hope   This easy-to-use, wide-ranging guide to invasive plants in North America features full-color photos and descriptions of more than 250 alien species—both terrestrial and aquatic—that are in some cases changing the landscape to an almost unimaginable degree. Accompanying text describes the plant’s environmental and economic impacts as well as management techniques used to control it. Also included is an explanation of what an invasive is and a step-by-step identification key. Used by U.S. Forest Service botanists, this is an essential guide to understanding this unprecedented environmental challenge that is threatening biodiversity—and the human population that depends on it to survive.   “A colorful, general field guide to the major invasive plants of North America…packed with relevant information.” —Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences   “A wonderful guide.” —The Roanoke Star

  Concepts of Modern Physics - An...

  Modern physics is the study of the fundamental principles that govern the universe, focusing on concepts that emerged in the 20th and 21st centuries. Unlike classical physics, which describes motion, forces, and energy using Newtonian mechanics and Maxwell’s equations, modern physics delves into the nature of reality at both the smallest and largest scales. It is driven by two major revolutions: relativity and quantum mechanics. These theories challenged classical assumptions, revealing new insights into space, time, and the fundamental particles that make up the universe. 
  One of the key differences between classical and modern physics lies in their domains of applicability. Classical physics works well for everyday experiences, from planetary motion to the mechanics of machines. However, when dealing with extreme conditions—such as objects moving at speeds close to the speed of light, microscopic particles, or immense gravitational fields—classical theories fail. Modern physics was developed to address these limitations, providing a more complete framework for understanding nature. Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity and the development of quantum mechanics by pioneers like Max Planck, Niels Bohr, and Erwin Schrödinger revolutionized scientific thought. 
  Several key experiments shaped the foundation of modern physics. The Michelson-Morley experiment in 1887 provided strong evidence against the existence of the "luminiferous aether," leading to the development of special relativity. Einstein’s 1905 theory redefined space and time, demonstrating that they are not absolute but rather interwoven in a four-dimensional continuum. His general theory of relativity later provided a new understanding of gravity, showing that massive objects warp space-time, a concept confirmed by astronomical observations, such as the bending of starlight during a solar eclipse.
