Synopsis

Rain Facts explores the crucial role of rain in shaping our planet's diverse climates and ecosystems. It unveils the science behind precipitation, from evaporation to condensation, and examines various types of rainfall, such as convectional, orographic, and frontal. Understanding these processes is vital, especially given the increasing relevance of climate change and its impact on global precipitation patterns.

The book highlights how extreme weather events linked to rainfall, including floods, monsoons, and droughts, have profound social, economic, and environmental consequences worldwide. The book delves into the meteorological factors contributing to these extremes, using case studies to illustrate their devastating impacts. For instance, it examines the monsoon-drenched regions and their unique biodiversity, showcasing the planet's wettest places that have adapted to constant rainfall.

The narrative progresses from explaining the water cycle to analyzing precipitation types and atmospheric conditions, culminating in an exploration of the world's wettest regions and the challenges they face amid climate change. Ultimately, Rain Facts argues that a comprehensive grasp of rainfall is essential for informed decision-making in the face of environmental challenges. It emphasizes the importance of understanding our planet's delicate balance and the critical role water plays in sustaining life. The book connects climatology, ecology, and geography with scientific explanations and real-world examples, offering a fresh perspective on the science of rain.

Birds Aren't Real - The True...

Peter McIndoe, Connor Gaydos

This program is read by the authors. The true story of the greatest conspiracy in US history—and how to fight back.Have you ever seen a baby pigeon? You haven’t, have you? No one has, not in many, many years. They used to be everywhere. You couldn’t walk out of your front door in New York City in the 1930s without seeing dozens of those little guys scurrying around. Today, there are millions of grown up pigeons in New York, but not a baby pigeon to be seen. That’s because they come out of the factory as adults.This is one of the many smoking guns of the bird drone surveillance crisis. Since 1959, the Deep State has mercilessly slaughtered over 12 billion birds and replaced them with identical drones that are designed to spy on private citizens and report their every action directly to the government. From pet canaries to Sesame Street, the shadowy figures that pull the strings have infiltrated every aspect of our society, making a mockery of civil liberties while the American people live in blissful ignorance. Until now.In Birds Aren’t Real, whistleblowers Peter McIndoe and Connor Gaydos trace the roots of a political conspiracy so vast and well-hidden that it almost seems like an elaborate hoax. These hero Bird Truthers have risked life and limb to compile and disseminate a treasure trove of information about the origins of the surveillance crisis, its spread, and the patriots who are on the front lines today, raising awareness and working to reclaim America as the land of the free. This urgent manifesto features a host of useful illustrations, activities, and leaked classified documents that will convince even the most outspoken skeptic that birds aren’t real. The truth is out there: will you stand and fight before it’s too late?A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

Steamy - A Menopause Symptomology

Susan Holbrook

Menopause: so many symptoms, so few remedies, so many years, so few heads-ups.  
In Steamy, you’ll find forty-five of the ever-expanding list of things people can encounter when going through The Change, including challenges (such as #4 Night Sweats and #21 Anxiety) and boons (such as #41 Individuation and #45 Fewer Shits). In this raucous memoir, Susan Holbrook opens up an experience still constrained by cultural silences and myths. Steamy is honest, vulnerable, gross, and might just be the funniest book you’ve ever read about menopause, or anything else (see #37 Bloating). If, at a certain stage of life, you find yourself sucker-punched by a sweaty fistful of symptoms you can’t believe no one told you about, Steamy is for you – and for all the other hot-and-bothereds out there.
