Summary

Antarctic Mountains unveils the hidden world beneath Antarctica's ice, revealing extensive subglacial mountain ranges. These mountains, comparable to major ranges on other continents, profoundly influence ice sheet dynamics and global sea level rise. This book explores how mapping these ranges, understanding their geological history, and investigating their impact on climate patterns are crucial for predicting future environmental changes. For example, the topography of these mountains controls the flow of ice streams, affecting the ice sheet's overall stability. The book presents a comprehensive view of Antarctic geography, climate science, and geological principles, making complex topics accessible. It details methods like radar sounding and seismic surveys used to map these hidden landscapes. Furthermore, it highlights the geological history of these mountains by analyzing rock samples and remote sensing data, connecting them to global tectonic events. A key focus is the interplay between geology and glaciology, traditionally separate fields, providing a complete picture of the Antarctic environment and its role in the Earth system. Concluding with a discussion on the implications for future sea-level rise and climate trends, the book emphasizes the importance of understanding these subglacial features. By synthesizing geophysical data, geological analyses, and climate modeling, it offers valuable insights for researchers, policymakers, and anyone interested in polar science and environmental issues. The book progresses systematically, building from the discovery of these ranges to their broader implications for our planet's future.

    When the Brain Can't Cope: Introducing Brain Fatigue Syndrome is a groundbreaking book pioneering the clinical condition of Brain Fatigue Syndrome, characterized by cognitive, emotional, and sensory impairment and profound exhaustion after mental activity that is not relieved by rest or sleep. It offers a thorough description, including its relationship to other pathologies and symptoms, method of study and recognition, and comprehensive management. 
     
    The book defines and describes brain fatigue, outlining how it can be assessed. Presenting a pathophysiological explanation at the cellular level, the authors also include research-based treatment strategies aimed at improving daily functioning and quality of life. To bring visibility to this often "invisible" condition, personal stories from individuals living with brain fatigue are incorporated, along with practical and real-life examples to raise awareness of the reality of this complex syndrome. 
     
    It is valuable listening for students of neuropsychology, medicine, nursing, and occupational therapy, as well as various healthcare professionals who work in the field of neurorehabilitation for acquired brain damage and those in primary care settings.

    Hello, Jerry Muskrat! We'd forgotten all about you, said Mrs. Quack. "What was that you said?" Jerry good-naturedly repeated what he had said. Mrs. Quack's face brightened. "Do you really mean it?" she asked eagerly. "Do you really mean that you know of a pond where we could live and not be likely to be seen by these two-legged creatures called men?" "That's what I said," replied Jerry briefly. "Oh, Jerry, you're not joking, are you? Tell me you're not joking," begged Mrs. Quack. "Of course I'm not joking," returned Jerry just a little bit indignantly, "I am not the kind of a fellow to joke people who are in such trouble as you and Mr. Quack seem to be in."

    "These writings are the whisperings of God’s Voice to me during those early periods of illumination which occurred in May of every year of my life from the age of seven. These periods of ecstasy – which always characterized cosmic illumination – lasted from ten to fourteen days, during which time I was obliged to seek solitude and aloneness in forests. I endeavored to express the thoughts and moods of these periods of ecstasy as my varying lack of body awareness balanced with my ever increasing cosmic God-consciousness with God and Nature." - WALTER RUSSELL.
