  In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, North American and European governments generously funded the discoveries of such famous paleontologists and geologists as Henry de la Beche, William Buckland, Richard Owen, Thomas Hawkins, Edward Drinker Cope, O. C. Marsh, and Charles W. Gilmore. In Patrons of Paleontology, Jane Davidson explores the motivation behind this rush to fund exploration, arguing that eagerness to discover strategic resources like coal deposits was further fueled by patrons who had a genuine passion for paleontology and the fascinating creatures that were being unearthed. These early decades of government support shaped the way the discipline grew, creating practices and enabling discoveries that continue to affect paleontology today.

  The water is rising — and it’s not just the coasts that are changing. Entire nations are sinking, rivers are shifting course, and millions are already on the move. But amid the devastation, extraordinary stories of resilience are emerging. 
  After the Flood takes readers to the front lines of the planet’s most pressing crisis: the global struggle to live with water in an era of unstoppable change. From the engineers building floating cities in the Netherlands to the farmers in Bangladesh reinventing agriculture on flooded land, and the Pacific Islanders fighting to preserve their homelands from beneath the waves — this is a story of ingenuity, defiance, and hope. 
  Blending investigative reporting with deeply human storytelling, Alex Southwick reveals how rising seas are not only redrawing maps, but reshaping what it means to belong, to adapt, and to survive. 
  After the Flood is a haunting and inspiring portrait of a world transformed by water — and the people determined to rise with it.

  The Shocking Truth about Natural...

  In recent years, the popularity of natural remedies has surged, with more and more people turning to herbal supplements, essential oils, superfoods, and alternative therapies as an alternative to conventional medicine. In a world where many are seeking healthier, more holistic ways to care for their bodies, natural remedies often seem like the solution to various health issues. The promise of a natural, side-effect-free way to heal is undeniably appealing. But, as we dive into the world of natural healing, it’s essential to ask: How much of this is rooted in truth, and how much is driven by the allure of unproven claims? 
    
  The shift toward natural remedies isn’t just a modern trend. It’s a return to ancient practices that have been used for thousands of years, from herbal medicine in ancient civilizations to the teachings of indigenous cultures who relied on the earth’s offerings for healing. Yet, despite their long history, the benefits of many natural remedies are still being researched and debated by scientists and health professionals. While some have proven their worth through rigorous studies and centuries of use, others remain shrouded in mystery or are often based on myths that have persisted through time. 
    
  This book aims to peel back the layers of misinformation, misconceptions, and unsubstantiated claims surrounding natural remedies. We’ll explore the science behind these remedies, uncover the potential dangers, and provide insight into which natural treatments are actually backed by evidence. By examining both the pros and cons of using natural remedies, we aim to give you a balanced and honest perspective on their effectiveness and safety. It’s crucial to understand that while nature has much to offer, it’s not a magical cure-all, and in some cases, it can pose risks when misused.
