Sinopsis

"Rewilding Home Spaces" explores how homeowners can actively contribute to ecological restoration and boost biodiversity right in their own yards. It argues that even small actions, like planting native species, can collectively make a big difference in fragmented urban and suburban environments. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding ecological succession, the natural process of change in plant and animal communities, as a key to guiding rewilding efforts. It highlights the stark contrast between ecologically sterile ornamental plants and native species vital for supporting local wildlife, providing a practical guide to transforming residential areas into thriving ecosystems.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with core ecological principles and defining rewilding in a residential context. It then explores the ecological benefits of native plants for pollinators and birds, offers strategies for creating wildlife habitats like pollinator gardens, and focuses on minimizing harmful landscaping practices such as pesticide use. By presenting scientific data, case studies, and actionable recommendations, "Rewilding Home Spaces" empowers readers to enhance ecosystem health, promoting a holistic approach to creating vibrant and resilient communities.

    Smart homes are here—domestic spaces bristling with networked technologies that appear to enhance work, entertainment, logistics, health, and security. But these technologies may also extract a cost in attention, money, and privacy. In Threshold, communication and technology expert Heather Suzanne Woods applies rhetorical theory to answer the urgent question of how swiftly proliferating smart homes alter those who inhabit them. 
     
     
     
    Building on research into smart homes in the United States, Woods recounts how smart homes arose and predicts the trajectory of their future form. She pulls back the curtain on the technology, probes who is in control, and questions whether a home can be too smart. 
     
     
     
    Woods suggests a dynamic cultural framework for understanding smart homes that takes into account sociotechnical variables through which smart homes shape human life. Woods's framework reveals how smart homes both reflect social norms about technology as well as whet consumer appetites. 
     
     
     
    Written for homeowners, policymakers, technology enthusiasts, and scholars, Threshold interweaves critical analysis with matter-of-fact graphics that map relationships between digital tools and social life.
