Sinopsis

Lakes in Parks explores the hidden worlds within national park lakes, revealing their geological origins and ecological importance. From glacier-carved basins to volcanic crater lakes, each lake's formation dictates its unique characteristics, influencing biodiversity and water chemistry. These lakes act as vital habitats and regulators of nutrient cycles, playing a crucial role in the overall park ecosystem. The book highlights the interconnectedness of these aquatic environments, showing how changes in water quality or the introduction of invasive species can cascade through the food web. Case studies from various parks illustrate ecological principles, while historical data reveals how lakes have changed over time. It emphasizes the need for an integrated approach to lake management, combining insights from geology, ecology, and environmental science. The book progresses logically, starting with lake formation and hydrology, then exploring ecological roles and culminating in an analysis of current challenges. By bridging multiple scientific disciplines, Lakes in Parks offers a comprehensive understanding of these complex systems, making it a valuable resource for park managers, students, and anyone interested in conservation and earth sciences.

    Alexandra Petri's US History -...

    A witty, absurdist satire of the last 500 years, Alexandra Petri's US History is the fake textbook you never knew you needed! 
     
     
     
    Alexandra Petri's US History contains a lost (invented!) history of America. (A history for people disappointed that the only president whose weird sex letters we have is Warren G. Harding.) Petri's "historical fan fiction" draws on real events and completely absurd fabrications to create a laugh-out-loud, irreverent takedown of our nation's complicated past. 
     
     
     
    On Petri's deranged timeline, John and Abigail Adams try sexting, the March sisters from Little Women are sixty feet tall, and Susan Sontag goes to summer camp. Nearly eighty short, hilarious pieces span centuries of American history and culture. Nikola Tesla's friends stage an intervention when he falls in love with a pigeon. The characters from Sesame Street invade Normandy. And Mark Twain—who famously said reports of his death had been greatly exaggerated—offers a detailed account of his undeath, in which he becomes a zombie. 
     
      
     
    This side-splitting work of historical humor shows why Alexandra Petri has been hailed as a "genius," a "national treasure," and "one of the funniest writers alive."

    The comedian, actor, television host, podcast king, and New York Times bestselling author of President Me, Not Taco Bell Material, and In Fifty Years We’ll All Be Chicks now lays down the law on the plight of the modern parent. 
    Parents, do you often think that if your kids had to grow up the way you did—without iPads, 70-inch flatscreen TVs, American Girl dolls, and wifi in the climate controlled minivan—that they might actually be better off? Do you feel underappreciated or ignored? Do you worry you’re raising a bunch of spoiled softies who will never know how to do anything themselves—because you do everything for them? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need Daddy, Stop Talking. 
    Adam rips parenthood a new one, telling it straight about what adults must do if they don’t want to have to support their kids forever. Using his own crappy childhood as a cautionary tale, and touting the pitfalls of the kind of helicopter parenting so pervasive today, Daddy, Stop Talking is the only parenting book you should ever read. Here, too, is sage advice to Adam’s own kids—and to future parents—on what matters most: dating; drinking and drugs; buying your first house and car; puberty; and what kind of assholes his kids (and yours) should avoid becoming. Even if his own son and daughter pretty much ignore everything he says, you shouldn’t. And you’re welcome. Again.
