Sinopsis

'Heat vs Cold' delves into the fascinating relationship between temperature and human behavior, exploring how thermal environments influence our decisions, productivity, and emotional well-being. Drawing from diverse fields including climatology, behavioral psychology, and neuroscience, the book presents compelling evidence that temperature acts as a subtle yet powerful force shaping human experiences and adaptations.

 
Through comprehensive research spanning Arctic to equatorial regions, readers discover how our nervous systems process thermal information and develop both immediate and long-term adaptation strategies. The book's progression through four major sections provides a logical journey from biological foundations to practical applications. Beginning with the fundamentals of temperature sensitivity, it moves through behavioral adaptations and seasonal mood correlations, ultimately offering frameworks for optimal thermal management.

 
What sets this work apart is its integration of cutting-edge data from wearable technology studies with traditional climate research, revealing individual variations in thermal adaptation patterns. The inclusion of workplace productivity studies and urban planning initiatives demonstrates the practical relevance of these findings. This interdisciplinary exploration bridges environmental science with architecture and organizational management, making it particularly valuable for professionals in environmental design and health services, while remaining accessible to general readers.

 
The book's analytical approach combines research synthesis with case studies, providing actionable insights for optimizing work environments and developing personal adaptation techniques. By examining both immediate individual responses and broader societal patterns, it offers a comprehensive understanding of how temperature influences human behavior in climate-controlled environments.

    Cherokees of the Smoky Mountains...

    The text relates the powerful and dramatic history of Smoky Mountain Cherokees, who for 40,000 years thrived in the difficult terrain of the Great Smoky Mountains and its surrounding regions areas of what is now Kentucky, Ohio, West Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. With a constitution and organized government, a written language and no economic debt, the Cherokees sought to live in relative peace. However, President Jackson and the state of Georgia thought differently, forcing the Cherokees and their devoted Chief John Ross to leave their homeland and be removed to Oklahoma in the Trail of Tears (1837-1839). Much political tension was exacerbated by the fact that a key Supreme Court ruling by Chief Justice John Marshall made clear that Georgian land grabbing of Cherokee lands was illegal. This story, and how one Cherokee Chief was sacrificed to retain a small piece of Cherokee land in the southwest corner of North Carolina, known today as Qualla Boundary, is told with passion, empathy and historical accuracy. 
    Horace Kephart is also the author of Our Southern Highlanders, Camping and Woodcraft and Smoky Mountain Magic, and the creator of the Kephart knife. Mount Kephart, a 6,217 foot peak just northwest of Qualla Boundary, was chosen by Kephart and designated in his lifetime. He was instrumental in the founding of the Great Smoky National Park.  
    This version of Cherokees of the Smoky Mountains was revised by Kephart's great granddaughter, Janice Kephart, a spoken word artist, narrator, and US government subject matter expert, having served as a 9/11 Commission counsel. Janice added context for some commentary within the text but left the writing mostly as is, added historical photographs from the Hunter Library Horace Kephart Archive at Western Carolina University and other libraries, and added a new Foreword and Introduction.
