“Tells the story of anger, disillusionment, and determination of Americans to develop a political movement to fight chemical pollution . . . timely.” —The Huffington PostThis book, named one of Booklist’s Top 10 books on sustainability in 2014, is the first to offer a comprehensive examination of the environmental health movement, which unlike many parts of the environmental movement, focuses on ways toxic chemicals and other hazardous agents in the environment effect human health and well-being. Born in 1978 when Lois Gibbs organized her neighbors to protest the health effects of a toxic waste dump in Love Canal, New York, the movement has spread across the United States and throughout the world. By placing human health at the center of its environmental argument, this movement has achieved many victories in community mobilization and legislative reform. In The Rise of the U.S. Environmental Health Movement, environmental health expert Kate Davies describes the movement’s historical, ideological, and cultural roots and analyzes its strategies and successes.“Kate Davies’ excellent book focuses on the role of health in the environmental health movement and encourages us to consider its origins and accomplishments . . . The Rise of the U.S. Environmental Health Movement looks both back and forward to challenge us to consider our current direction. In the future this book will provide readers with an important perspective on how the environmental health movement shaped our society.” —Toxipedia“A well-done history of America’s environmental health movement . . . offers readers valuable information on how grassroots organizing prevents harm from toxic exposures and leads to safe and healthy communities.” —Lois Marie Gibbs, Executive Director, Center for Health, Environment & JusticeVer libro
Dr Liz O’Riordan is a breast cancer surgeon who has battled against social, physical and mental challenges to practise at the top of her field. Under the Knife charts Liz’s incredible highs: performing like a couture dressmaker as she moulded and reshaped women’s breasts, while saving their lives; to the heart-breaking lows of telling ten women a day that they had cancer. But this memoir is more than just an eye-opening look at the realities of training to be a female surgeon in a man’s world. In addition to this high-powered, high-pressured role, Liz faced her own breast cancer diagnosis, severe depression and suicidal thoughts, in tandem with commonplace sexual harassment and bullying. And by revealing how she coped when her life crashed around her, she demonstrates there is always hope.Ver libro

What if the deepest truths of the universe were not discovered in laboratories—but revealed thousands of years ago? In Shri Krishna and Quantum Consciousness, Dr Bhaskar Bora presents a bold and intellectually rigorous exploration of reality at the intersection of ancient Hindu philosophy and modern quantum science. Drawing from the Bhagavad Gita, Vedanta, and yogic philosophy, this book examines how the teachings of Shri Krishna resonate with cutting-edge concepts in physics, including: • Quantum entanglement and non-local consciousness • The observer effect and the nature of awareness • Superposition, duality, and the illusion of reality (Maya) • Time, causality, and cyclical existence • The unified field and the concept of Brahman Rather than forcing a comparison, this work builds a thoughtful dialogue between two powerful systems of understanding—one ancient, one modern—both pointing toward a deeper, unified truth. At the centre of this exploration is Shri Krishna—not merely as a religious figure, but as a profound model of cosmic intelligence, consciousness, and the ultimate observer. This book is designed for: • Readers of Hindu philosophy and Vedanta • Students of quantum physics and metaphysics • Seekers exploring consciousness and reality • Thinkers interested in science–spirituality dialogue This is not a book of easy answers. It is an invitation to question everything you think you know about reality. Because perhaps— the universe is not made of matter, but of consciousness itself.Ver libro
