Sinossi

Desert Survival Knowledge explores how indigenous cultures have thrived in arid environments for centuries, offering crucial insights for sustainable living today. Delving into Earth Sciences, Geography, and Nature, the book reveals ingenious strategies for water management, such as fog collection, and ingenious shelter construction techniques using locally sourced materials like adobe, optimizing temperature regulation. These communities, through generations of trial and error, have built a deep ecological understanding, challenging the notion that modern technology is always the best solution.

 
The book unfolds by first introducing desert ecology's core concepts, then exploring key themes like water harvesting, shelter construction, and sustainable practices like drought-resistant agriculture. It uniquely synthesizes traditional ecological knowledge with modern scientific understanding, making it valuable for academics and practitioners alike.

 
By examining practices across diverse desert regions, from the Sahara to the Australian Outback, the book highlights the potential of these time-tested methods for addressing contemporary environmental challenges.

    When Robert Zubrin published his classic book The Case for Mars a quarter century ago, setting foot on the Red Planet seemed a fantasy. Today, manned exploration is certain, and as Zubrin affirms in The New World on Mars, so too is colonization. 
     
     
     
    We will settle on Mars, and with our knowledge of the planet, analyzed in depth by Dr. Zubrin, we will utilize the resources and tackle the challenges that await us. What we will we build? Populous Martian city-states producing air, water, food, power, and more. Zubrin's Martian economy will pay for necessary imports and generate income from varied enterprises, such as real estate sales—homes that are airtight and protect against cosmic space radiation, with fish-farm aquariums positioned overhead, letting in sunlight and blocking cosmic rays while providing fascinating views. Zubrin even predicts the Red Planet customs, social relations, and government that will overcome traditional forms of oppression to draw Earth immigrants. 
     
      
     
    With all of this in place, Zubrin's Red Planet will become a pressure cooker for invention, benefiting humans on Earth, Mars, and beyond. We can create this magnificent future, making life better, less fatalistic. The New World on Mars proves that there is no point killing each other over provinces and limited resources when, together, we can create planets.

    The 2014 Ebola epidemic demonstrated the power of pandemics and their ability not only to destroy lives locally but also to capture the imagination and terrify the world. In 2019 and the years that followed, the coronavirus pandemic infected every continent and took the lives of millions. In this updated edition, Christian W. McMillen provides a concise yet comprehensive account of pandemics throughout human history, illustrating how pandemic disease has shaped history and, at the same time, social behavior has influenced pandemic disease.This Very Short Introduction describes history's major pandemics. McMillen discusses state responses to pandemics, such as quarantine, isolation, travel restrictions, and other forms of social control, and pays special attention to the rise of public health and the explosion of medical research in the wake of pandemics, especially as the germ theory of disease emerged in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Today, medicine is able to control all of these diseases, yet some of them are still devastating in much of the developing world. By assessing the relationship between poverty and disease and the geography of epidemics, McMillen offers an outspoken and thought-provoking point of view on the necessity for global governments to learn from past experiences and cooperate to prevent any future epidemic.
