Sinossi

Are you aware of the potential dangers lurking in your living room? Toxic Furniture Guide sheds light on the hidden chemicals in everyday furniture, a significant source of indoor chemical exposure. These toxins, including flame retardants and VOCs, can impact your health. This book empowers you with the knowledge to make informed choices, challenging the idea that consumers are helpless against harmful manufacturing practices. Did you know that some flame retardants, initially introduced in the 1970s, have been linked to developmental issues?

 
The book progresses by first identifying common furniture toxins and their sources, from couches to mattresses. It then explores the health effects associated with these chemicals, citing scientific studies. Finally, it provides practical strategies for reducing exposure, such as choosing safer furniture, improving ventilation, and advocating for stricter regulations.

 
The book's unique value lies in its actionable solutions, presented in an accessible manner, helping you create a toxin-free home and promote environmental health.

All Physicians Lead - Redefining...

Leon E. Moores

Physicians lead. It’s an integral part of what they do. They lead patients, they lead healthcare teams, they lead colleagues, departments, and organizations. But most doctors receive very little training in leadership.Leon E. Moores, MD, DSc, FACS is a neurosurgeon and seasoned healthcare leader who literally “wrote the book” on physician leadership for the U.S. Army. A West Point graduate, Moores became an officer and a surgeon in the Army and recognized how the lack of formal leadership training for doctors impacts physician effectiveness, team performance, and patient outcomes. Along with a team of highly accomplished colleagues, he created the physician leadership development program that has been widely referenced by the U.S. military. Moores now shares that leadership wisdom, and the lessons he has learned through decades of healthcare organization leadership, with physicians everywhere and with all readers passionate about improving healthcare.

Nineteen Reservoirs - On Their...

Luc Sante

Without the nineteen upstate reservoirs that supply its water, New York City as we know it would not exist today. 
 
 
 
From 1907 to 1967, a network of reservoirs and aqueducts was built across more than one million acres in upstate New York, including Greene, Delaware, Sullivan, and Ulster Counties. This feat of engineering served to meet New York City's ever-increasing need for water, sustaining its inhabitants and cementing it as a center of industry. West of the Hudson, it meant that twenty-six villages, with their farms, forest lands, orchards, and quarries, were bought for a fraction of their value, demolished, and submerged, profoundly altering ecosystems in ways we will never fully appreciate. 
 
 
 
This paradox of victory and loss is at the heart of Nineteen Reservoirs, Lucy Sante's meticulous account of how New York City secured its seemingly limitless fresh water supply, and why it cannot be taken for granted. In inimitable form, Sante plumbs the historical record to surface forgotten archives and images, bringing lost places back to life on the page. Her immaculately calibrated sensitivity honors both perspectives on New York City's reservoir system and helps us understand the full import of its creation.

Mike Crawford

This bundle dives deep into the fascinating world of animals through three focused disciplines. Whether you're a student of biology or simply passionate about wildlife, this book offers a structured journey through the diversity, behavior, and classification of animals on land, in water, and in the air.
Start with Mammalogy, the study of mammals, where you'll discover what makes this class of warm-blooded animals unique. Explore their evolutionary history, anatomy, reproduction, habitats, and behaviors—from lions and elephants to bats and marine mammals.
In Ichthyology, you’ll plunge into the underwater realm of fish. Learn about gill structures, sensory systems, spawning behaviors, and adaptations that allow fish to thrive in environments ranging from coral reefs to the darkest ocean depths. This section covers both bony and cartilaginous fishes, including sharks, rays, and eels.
Lastly, Entomology opens the miniature world of insects—the most diverse group of animals on Earth. Discover how insects breathe, communicate, and interact with their ecosystems. From the anatomy of butterflies to the colony structure of ants, this section uncovers the critical role of insects in pollination, decomposition, and as indicators of environmental health.
Ideal for learners of all levels, this 3-in-1 guide brings together key areas of zoology in one volume, making it an excellent resource for classrooms, libraries, or curious minds eager to understand the life forms that share our planet.
