Sinopsis

This brief book is dedicated to the quantitative analyses and systematic discussion of spatial biodiversity and biogeographic patterns in the Asia‐pacific region comprised of China, India and adjacent countries. The book is split into two sections. The first section presents readers with detailed statistical methods to conduct spatial macro‐biodiversity and biogeography analyses. Step-by-step instructions on how to perform these statistical methods by using the statistical program R are also provided. In the second part, different quantitative case studies are presented covering several topics, including phylogenetics, spatial statistics, multivariate statistics and ecological genomics. Each case study concludes with a detailed interpretation of the quantitative results and how these results are relevant to local and regional ecological processes. This reference is suitable for academics interested in biostatistics biodiversity and ecological studies specific to the Asia Pacific region and China.

    - Single-use plastics are a big money-maker for the fossil fuel industry. 
    - They created the triangle symbol to make us think plastics will recycle, even though that can’t easily be done. 
    - Manufacturers choose not to invest in recycled packaging and materials. 
    - Virgin materials mined from Earth are cheaper and often subsidized. 
    - Technology exists to eliminate most of the greenhouse gas emissions they cause. 
    - It’s time to fight for the truth and take matters into our own hands. What we buy and how it’s made affects how well “reduce, reuse, and recycle” works. Using the power of our voices and wallets, we can make corporations change how they do business. 
    - They answer to us, the people who buy their products and invest in their stock. 
    - We can insist they take responsibility for the damage they cause.  
    - We have the power to fight climate change at home and in our cities. 
    - I don’t know about you, but I’m not ready to leave the health and well-being of my family in the hands of people who I hope will figure this mess out. 
    - We all need to change for the better of our planet and our lives. 
    - There are alternatives to buying disposable goods and packaging. 
    - Buy durable goods and reusable packaging to save money and the planet.  
    - Reduce and reuse packaging. First, eliminate plastic shopping bags.  
    - We can do things differently to change our eating and buying habits.

    The concept of the universe has captivated human curiosity for centuries, but what lies at its edge? The truth is that the edge of the universe is not defined by a physical boundary but by the limits of what we can observe and understand. Space stretches endlessly in every direction, but as we look farther and farther, the light from distant objects becomes increasingly redshifted, eventually disappearing beyond our ability to detect it. This phenomenon marks the boundary of the observable universe, a region from which light has had enough time to reach us since the beginning of the universe, around 13.8 billion years ago. 
    At the edge of the observable universe, we find a vast expanse of empty space, known as the "cosmic void." These regions contain few galaxies, stars, or other celestial objects, and their emptiness gives them an eerie and mysterious quality. The voids between galaxies are immense, sometimes stretching hundreds of millions of light-years across, and they represent one of the most puzzling aspects of cosmology. Why are these vast expanses of nothingness so prevalent? And what does it mean for the structure of the universe? 
    As we peer deeper into space, we encounter objects that have been traveling towards us for billions of years, their light providing a glimpse into the past. The most distant galaxies, discovered using advanced telescopes, show us the early universe as it was just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. These galaxies offer valuable clues about the formation of stars, galaxies, and larger cosmic structures. However, the farther we look, the more difficult it becomes to see clearly. The expansion of the universe means that galaxies are moving away from us at an accelerating rate, causing their light to become increasingly stretched out, or redshifted. This makes them harder to detect and study, and the universe seems to grow darker the farther we look.

  • Practice the Pause - Jesus' Contemplative Practice New Brain Science and What It Means to Be Fully Human - cover

    Practice the Pause - Jesus'...

    These days, many of us live in a state of overreactive fight-or-flight response and chronic stress. The demands of modern life pull us in all directions and can often put the meaningful connections in our lives at risk—connections to our deepest selves, to others, and even to God. 
     
     
     
    But there is good news. New developments in brain science have recently proven that an intentional practice of pausing for a few minutes of meditation, prayer, or other contemplative practice actually rewires our brain in ways that make us calmer, less reactive, and better able to see the bigger picture. 
     
     
     
    In Practice the Pause, spiritual director and writer Caroline Oakes offers easy-to-understand explanations of how this new brain science is confirming what every spiritual tradition has been telling us for millennia: by practicing the pause, we become more self-aware and better able to understand others. We become more "God aware." With a refreshing focus on the Eastern Christian understanding of Jesus as a master of wisdom, Oakes shines a spotlight on Jesus's own centering pause practice as a transformative path for personal and social change. We learn that even a seven-second pause practice can move us beyond the fight-or-flight responses of our ego in our daily lives and actually equip us to cultivate the common good in the world.
