Sinossi

Bacteria Eat Metal reveals the unseen world of microbial corrosion, highlighting how microorganisms consume steel, a cornerstone of modern infrastructure. This book explores the biological mechanisms, environmental factors, and mitigation strategies related to this phenomenon. Microbial corrosion results in billions of dollars in damages annually to pipelines, ships, and offshore platforms, posing significant environmental risks. A key insight is understanding how microbes adapt to different metallic and environmental conditions through gene expression, influencing the rate and type of corrosion. The book traces the evolution of corrosion science, integrating microbiology with traditional metallurgy and electrochemistry.

 
It begins by introducing the microbes involved, their metabolic processes, and favoring environmental conditions. It then details the mechanisms by which microbes attack metal, including electrochemical and biochemical reactions. Finally, the book explores real-world impacts through case studies and examines current and emerging prevention strategies, providing practical knowledge for industry professionals and policymakers.

    To Everything a Season is a beautifully crafted personal and reflective account of many years of the changing seasons, from autumn    to autumn, in and around a village on the edge of the Cambridge Fenland. It is an uplifting reflection about change: what was, what is, what will be.   
    It is about the miracle of the rich gift of life. It is also about death, loss, and the rebirth of the old into something rich and strange.   
    But it is also a book suffused with a gentle humour, with a deep love and sympathy for our fellow creatures. Charles Moseley tackles what we have done to the world of which we are not owners or masters but stewards, not only for our children but for the whole web of life on which everything depends.

    All spring, Dr. Elizabeth Hilborn watched as her family fruit farm of many years became increasingly diminished, suffering from a lack of bees. 
     
     
     
    The plentiful wildlife, so abundant just weeks before, was gone. Everything was still, silent. 
     
     
     
    As an environmental scientist trained to investigate disease outbreaks, she rose to the challenge. Despite facing headwinds from skeptical neighbors, environmental experts, and agricultural consultants, she'd assembled information. 
     
     
     
    The chemicals found in her water samples showed beyond any doubt that not only her farm, but her greater farming community, was at risk from toxic chemicals that traveled with rain water over the land and deep within the soil. 
     
     
     
    Even as a scientist, she'd been unaware of the risks to life from some common agricultural chemicals. Her goal was to protect her farm and the animals who lived there. 
     
     
     
    But first she had to convince her rural neighbors of the risk to their way of life, too. 
     
     
     
    A lyrical celebration of nature by a passionate citizen scientist who felt called to advocate for the land, earth, and creatures who don't have a voice, Restoring Eden ultimately offers hope that citizens can create change, that reform is possible.
