Sinopsis

Alexandrite Origins explores the fascinating story behind this color-changing gemstone, revealing how rare geological circumstances give rise to its unique properties. The book delves into the specific conditions needed for alexandrite to form, emphasizing the interplay of elements like beryllium and chromium. One intriguing aspect highlighted is how alexandrite's existence serves as a marker for unusual geological events, offering insights into the Earth's metamorphic processes.

 
The book also explains the physics behind alexandrite's pleochroism, the phenomenon that causes it to appear green in daylight and red in incandescent light. This color change is due to the way chromium ions absorb light within the crystal structure. Furthermore, it examines the historical and economic significance of alexandrite discoveries, noting how its rarity contributes to its value.

 
The book progresses from introducing chrysoberyl's composition to exploring geological environments and metamorphic events to discussing pleochroism and historical discoveries. This book uniquely emphasizes the geological rarity and specific formation conditions of alexandrite.

 
By presenting complex scientific information in an accessible manner, Alexandrite Origins caters to a broad audience, including geology students, gemologists, and anyone interested in Earth sciences and the origins of gemstones.

    The Book Of Earths

    This is a compendium of theories of the shape of the Earth, along with a great deal of 'Earth Mystery' lore. Richly illustrated, the Book of Earths includes many unusual theories, including Columbus' idea that the Earth is literally pear-shaped, modern theories that the Earth was originally tetrahedral, and so on. Kenton also covers many traditional theories including the ancient Babylonians and Egyptians, Hindu and Buddhist cosmology, and those of the Peruvians, Aztecs and Mongols. She also discusses modern alternative theories such as that of Reed and Koresh. Strangely enough, she misses or ignores the modern flat earth theory of Rowbotham. This is the only apparent omission in this definitive study. Kenton has no apparent axe to grind: this is simply a very readable survey of the literature if you have any interest in 'Earth mysteries"

    This is a biography of Earthopolis, the only Urban Planet we know of. It is a history of how cities gave humans immense power over Earth, for good and for ill. Carl Nightingale takes readers on a sweeping six-continent, six-millennium tour of the world’s cities, culminating in the last 250 years, when we vastly accelerated our planetary realms of action, habitat, and impact, courting dangerous new consequences and opening prospects for new hope. In Earthopolis we peek into our cities’ homes, neighborhoods, streets, shops, eating houses, squares, marketplaces, religious sites, schools, universities, offices, monuments, docklands, and airports to discover connections between small spaces and the largest things we have built. The book exposes the Urban Planet’s deep inequalities of power, wealth, access to knowledge, class, race, gender, sexuality, religion, and nation. It asks us to draw on the most just and democratic moments of Earthopolis’s past to rescue its future.
