Sinossi

Baobab Drought Survival unveils the secrets behind the baobab tree's remarkable ability to thrive in the arid African savanna. This book explores the unique structural and physiological adaptations that allow these trees to endure prolonged drought, highlighting their crucial role in savanna ecosystems. One intriguing fact is the baobab's capacity to store vast quantities of water within its trunk, sometimes exceeding 30,000 gallons, enabling it to survive years of drought. Another key insight is how the baobab supports a diverse range of species during dry spells, acting as a keystone of its environment. The book presents a detailed botanical analysis of the baobab, from its evolutionary history to its ecological significance. It investigates the physiological mechanisms that facilitate water storage, examines interactions with other plants and animals, and assesses the implications of the baobab's survival strategies for broader applications in agriculture and biodiversity conservation. Using anatomical studies, physiological experiments, and climate data, the book demonstrates the baobab's resilience and offers valuable lessons for understanding plant biology and climate change adaptation. The narrative progresses from introducing the baobab to exploring its water retention capabilities and its role in the savanna ecosystem. Ultimately, Baobab Drought Survival emphasizes the importance of understanding and preserving drought-tolerant species, providing a model of resilience for a world facing increasing water scarcity and desertification. This exploration offers new insights into plant resilience and its implications for a changing world.

Jalan-Jalan - A Journey of...

Margo Weinstein

Can you combine wanderlust and motherhood? 
Margo Weinstein did. 
For decades, Margo Weinstein escaped her demanding legal practice by kayaking, whitewater rafting, trekking, and climbing in remote regions. Then she had a son and found herself in the kiddie pool on a Disney cruise. Searching for a new path, a jalan-jalan, that could accommodate motherhood and satisfy her wanderlust, she dragged her young son to the other side of the world, moving first to Shanghai and then to Bali. 
Adventure seekers and armchair travelers will relish listening to Weinstein’s exploits as she battles baboons in Zimbabwe and surfaces under a capsized raft in Pakistan. Parents will appreciate her efforts to explore the world with a kid in tow and her expat life in a villa where a python on the stairs, a scorpion in the outdoor shower, and Hindu offerings ceremonially placed next to the infinity pool and Wi-Fi router are daily realities.  
Told with intelligence, humor, spirit, and Weinstein’s version of practicality, Jalan-Jalan will inspire you to find your path and take the trip of a lifetime.

Twenty-four-year-old Leen is going to open an ear-cleaning and massage studio in the Topic Heights Shopping Centre, taking her mother’s Chinese ritual to the West to bring people back to their bodies. 
But something is not quite right in Par Mars. Managers are being attacked, and when Leen befriends Jean Paul, a pharmacist who is obsessed with a cryptic online forum, she finds herself involved in a community that is intent on disrupting the routines of capitalism in increasingly troubling ways. 
With a fierce intellect and masterful storytelling, Jamie Marina Lau brings to life a world that is devastatingly close to our own.
