Synopsis

The Great Dividing Range in Australia is more than just a mountain range; it's a defining feature that shapes the nation's ecosystems, agricultural practices, and settlement patterns. Great Dividing explores this multifaceted influence, revealing how its geological formation millions of years ago continues to impact Australia's natural history and human development.

 
One intriguing aspect is the range's role in creating diverse ecological habitats, from lush rainforests to unique riparian zones, supporting a wealth of biodiversity. Also, the rain shadow effect caused by the mountains significantly affects agricultural possibilities on either side, dictating crop selection and irrigation needs.

 
The book takes an interdisciplinary approach, blending geology, ecology, geography, and agricultural science to provide a comprehensive understanding. It traces the range's geological origins, examines its diverse ecosystems and their conservation, and analyzes its impact on agriculture and settlement. Through accessible language and a balance of scientific rigor with engaging prose, this book will appeal to anyone interested in Australia's landscape.

 
It progresses across chapters to reveal how the Great Dividing Range acts as a crucial determinant of Australia's ecological and demographic identity, highlighting the challenges of balancing development with environmental conservation.

    Time is a fascinating subject and one which affects our lives in many ways.  
    This book covers a lot of aspects of the subject. 
    First, how did measurements of time like seconds, minutes, hours, and years develop? 
    Next, what is the history of timekeeping mechanisms from ancient water clocks, to mechanical mechanisms, atomic clocks, and much more. 
    Lastly, what are some of the stranger aspects or anomalies of time such as premonitions, how time and space work, and possible time travel stories. 
    And philosophical questions like: Does the future already exist? 
    I wanted this book to be a comprehensive volume on time and so included lots of different stories and understandings about time which indicate we may not fully understand it yet.

    The Petroleum Papers - Inside...

    Burning fossil fuels will cause catastrophic global warming: this is what top American oil executives were told by scientists in 1959. But they ignored that warning. Instead, they developed one of the biggest, most polluting oil sources in the world—the oil sands in Alberta, Canada. As investigative journalist Geoff Dembicki reveals in this explosive book, the decades-long conspiracy to keep the oil sands flowing into the US would turn out to be one of the biggest reasons for the world's failure to stop the climate crisis. 
     
     
     
    In The Petroleum Papers, Dembicki draws from confidential oil industry documents to uncover for the first time how companies like Exxon, Koch Industries, and Shell built a global right-wing echo chamber to protect oil sands profits—a misinformation campaign that continues to this day. He also tells the high-stakes stories of people fighting back: a Seattle lawyer who brought down Big Tobacco and is now going after Big Oil, a Filipina activist whose family drowned in a climate disaster, and a former Exxon engineer pushed out for asking hard questions. 
     
     
     
    With experts now warning we have less than a decade to get global emissions under control, The Petroleum Papers provides a step-by-step account of how we got to this precipice—and the politicians and companies who deserve our blame.

    Red Leviathan - The Secret...

    The Soviet Union killed over six hundred thousand whales in the twentieth century, many of them illegally and secretly. That catch helped bring many whale species to near extinction by the 1970s, and the impacts of this loss of life still ripple through today’s oceans. In this new account, based on formerly secret Soviet archives and interviews with ex-whalers, environmental historian Ryan Tucker Jones offers a complete history of the role the Soviet Union played in the whales' destruction. 
     
     
     
    As other countries—especially the United States, Great Britain, Japan, and Norway—expanded their pursuit of whales to all corners of the globe, Stalin determined that the Soviet Union needed to join the hunt. Cold War intrigue encouraged this destruction, but, as Jones shows, there is a more complex history behind this tragic Soviet experiment. Jones compellingly describes the ultimate scientific irony: today's cetacean studies benefited from Soviet whaling, as Russian scientists on whaling vessels made key breakthroughs in understanding whale natural history and behavior. 
     
     
     
    Red Leviathan reveals how the Soviet public began turning against their country's whaling industry, working in parallel with Western environmental organizations like Greenpeace to help end industrial whaling—not long before the world's whales might have disappeared altogether.
