Synopsis

Avalanche Trigger Points explores the intricate factors that lead to avalanches, emphasizing that these events aren't random but result from specific triggers acting on unstable snowpacks. It investigates how subtle shifts in snow layering, combined with terrain features and weather patterns, can create deadly conditions. The book uniquely focuses on these immediate triggers, offering a nuanced understanding of avalanche risk. Readers will gain insight into how the book progresses from fundamental snow science principles to detailed analyses of snow layering, terrain influence, and weather's role. For example, it explains how slope angle and aspect affect snowpack stability, or how rapid temperature increases can act as a natural trigger. By examining past avalanches and drawing on data from global research institutions, the book supports its arguments with empirical evidence. Ultimately, Avalanche Trigger Points aims to improve avalanche forecasting, risk assessment, and safety practices. This book provides actionable advice for professionals and recreationalists alike, making it invaluable for anyone navigating avalanche terrain and aiming to understand mountain ecosystems and snow science.

    From acclaimed folklorist and historian Adrienne Mayor, an enchanting collection of the ancient myths that emerged out of the wonders—and disasters—of the natural world 
     
    Mythopedia is a fun, fact-filled A-Z treasury of myths inspired by natural events. Bringing together fifty legends from antiquity to the present, this delightfully entertaining book takes you around the world to explore sunken kingdoms and lost cities, accursed mountains and treacherous terrains, and lethal lakes and singing sand dunes, explaining the historical background and latest science underlying each tale. 
     
    As soon as humans invented language, they told stories to explain mysterious things they observed around them—on land, in the seas, and in the skies. Even though these tales are expressed in poetic or supernatural language, they contain surprisingly accurate insights and even eyewitness descriptions of catastrophic events millennia ago. Drawing on her unique insights as a pioneer in the exciting new field of geomythology, Adrienne Mayor describes how cultural memories of tsunamis, volcanic disasters, and other massive geological events can reach back thousands of years as the stories were preserved, elaborated, told, and retold across generations. She shows how geomythology is expanding our understanding of our planet’s history over eons, revealing the human desire to explain nature and weave imaginative stories intertwined with keen observation, rational speculation, and memory. 
     
    Mythopedia is a compendium of many marvels, from the Hindu monkey god Hanuman and his army of bridge-building primates to the terrifying sand demon Shensha shen of China, the gnawing glaciers of Austria, and the vengeful fish-headed snake god Nyami Nyami of Africa’s Zambezi River.

    Since ChatGPT burst into the public consciousness in 2022, AI has thoroughly infiltrated everyday life. Machines can now take on work once thought to be solely the domain of human beings--from writing college essays to composing worship music. How should Christians respond to this brave new technology? 
     
    In this accessible introduction to AI, Sean O'Callaghan and Paul Hoffman explore its social and ethical impacts for ministry and teaching. The authors shed light on the biblical vision for human flourishing--and on how AI can help or hinder that flourishing. Avoiding both alarmism and uncritical acceptance, O'Callaghan and Hoffman offer resources and practical tools for using AI in our classrooms and congregations. 
     
    AI can write a generic three-point sermon, but it cannot replace an authentic encounter between humans and the divine. In a time of cultural confusion, O'Callaghan and Hoffman encourage readers to embrace the clarity found in the gospel. The book includes a foreword by A. Trevor Sutton.
