  With Mountain Madness, Clinton Crockett Peters chronicles his travels and personal transformation from a West Texas evangelical to mountain guide-addict to humbled humanist after a near-fatal injury in Japan's Chichibu Mountains. From 2007 to 2010, Peters lived in Kosuge Village (population nine hundred), nestled in central Japan's peaks, where he was the only foreigner in the rugged town. Using these three years as a frame, this essay collection profiles who he was before Japan, why he became obsessed with mountains, and his fallout from mountain obsession, including an essay on Craig Arnold, the poet who disappeared on a Japanese volcano. Ultimately, the collection asks, how can landscape create and end identities?

  A Country of Two Agricultures

  Nearly three decades after the dawn of democracy, South Africa has remained a country of 'two agricultures'. On the one hand we have a subsistence, primarily non-commercial, black farming segment. On the other hand, however, we have a predominantly commercial and white farming sector that is well-resourced and has access to domestic and international trade networks.
  These disparities can be traced back to South Africa's painful history where, for decades, black farmers were on the margins of government support and also experienced land dispossession and livestock plunder.
  A Country of Two Agricultures focuses less on history and more on the present and the future, explaining why these disparities have persisted in the democratic era, and what it will take to overcome them. It aims to contribute to a better understanding of the variety of agricultural forces, taking into account both questions of domestic political economy and external factors, as well as to bring to light new risks and opportunities.
  Wandile Sihlobo offers insights into the role of agriculture in the South African economy from an agricultural economy perspective, and provides political economy insights that are rooted in the experiences of farming communities on the ground and right through the value chain.
  Beyond insights on the realities this book offers the government, the private sector, and anyone interested in the betterment of the South African economy, tools to grapple with this duality, and proposes a framework for bolstering the black farming segment for growth and competitiveness – and ultimately food security.
  Wandile Sihlobo is the Chief Economist of the Agricultural Business Chamber of South Africa (Agbiz) and the author of Finding Common Ground: Land, Equity and Agriculture.

  Threat Multiplier takes us onto the battlefield and inside the Pentagon to show how the US military is confronting the biggest security risk in global history: climate change. More than thirty years ago, Sherri Goodman became the Pentagon's first chief environmental officer. Indeed, for much of the twentieth century, the Department of Defense (DOD) was better known for containing the Soviet nuclear threat than protecting the environment. And yet, today, the military has moved from an environmental laggard to a clean energy and climate leader, recognizing that a warming world exacerbates every threat—from hurricanes and forest fires, to competition for increasingly scarce food and water, to terrorism and power plays by Russia and China. The Pentagon now considers climate in war games, disaster relief planning, international diplomacy, and even the design of its own bases. 
   
   
   
  What was the key to this dramatic change in military thinking? What keeps today's generals and admirals up at night? How can we safeguard our national defense and our planet? No one is better poised to answer these questions than Sherri Goodman, who was at the vanguard of environmental leadership among our armed forces and civilian representatives. In Threat Multiplier, she tells the inside story of the military's fight for global security, a tale that is as hopeful as it is harrowing.

  "Decentralized Computing: The Evolution of Power and Possibility" explores the transformative impact of blockchain and decentralized technologies on our world today and in the future. From revolutionizing finance and governance to empowering individuals and communities, decentralized computing represents a paradigm shift in how we interact, transact, and govern. 
  In this insightful exploration, we delve into the foundational principles of decentralization, tracing its evolution from the creation of Bitcoin to the emergence of smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps) on platforms like Ethereum. We uncover how these technologies have democratized access to financial services through decentralized finance (DeFi), enabling peer-to-peer transactions, lending, and investing without intermediaries. 
  Moreover, the book examines how decentralized networks are reshaping governance models, with innovations like Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) enabling transparent decision-making and community-driven initiatives. We explore the potential of blockchain to enhance data privacy and digital autonomy through self-sovereign identity solutions and decentralized storage systems, empowering individuals to control their personal information securely. 
  "Decentralized Computing" also addresses the challenges and opportunities inherent in this technological revolution. It navigates regulatory landscapes, security considerations, and scalability issues while advocating for ethical and responsible innovation. The book underscores the potential of decentralized computing to drive sustainable development, promote environmental stewardship, and foster inclusive economic growth. 
  Join us on a journey into the decentralized future, where power shifts from centralized authorities to empowered communities, and possibilities for innovation and equitable progress abound.
