Sinopsis

Andes Mountains Past explores the profound connection between the Andean civilizations and their dynamic natural environment. The book argues that the Andes Mountains weren't just a backdrop but an active force shaping the trajectory of South American societies. By integrating geological and climatic data with historical and anthropological accounts, it offers a unique perspective, revealing how geography, climate, and geological processes influenced human history, cultural development, and societal structures. For example, the book examines how societies like the Inca and Tiwanaku adapted to challenges such as earthquakes and El Niño events.

 
Beginning with the Andes' geological formation and its impact on climate and biodiversity, the book traces the development of complex societies, including the Inca, while analyzing the role of environmental factors in their rise and fall. It also explores the impact of Spanish colonization and contemporary challenges like climate change.

 
The book ultimately provides readers with a holistic understanding of the Andes, emphasizing the interplay between humans and their environment, and challenging Eurocentric perspectives of history.

The Power is in Webinars

Webinars have become one of the most popular ways to promote a business in the past few years.

They are so effective because they provide an impassiveness that other forums of media do not and attendees get real-time information delivered straight to them, not to mention the interactivity of question-and-answer sessions.

According to the Adobe Software blog, webinars rank in the top three of the content delivery methods out there.

The Frontier Below

Jeff Maynard

Triumphs and disasters in the deep sea
This is a journey through time and water, to the bottom of the ocean and the future of our planet.
We do not see the ocean when we look at the water that blankets more than two thirds of our planet. We only see the entrance to it. Beyond that entrance is a world hostile to humans, yet critical to our survival. The first divers to enter that world held their breath and splashed beneath the surface, often clutching rocks to pull them down. Over centuries, they invented wooden diving bells, clumsy diving suits, and unwieldy contraptions in attempts to go deeper and stay longer. But each advance was fraught with danger, as the intruders had to survive the crushing weight of water, or the deadly physiological effects of breathing compressed air. The vertical odyssey continued when explorers squeezed into heavy steel balls dangling on cables, or slung beneath floats filled with flammable gasoline. Plunging into the narrow trenches between the tectonic plates of the Earth’s crust, they eventually reached the bottom of the ocean in the same decade that men first walked on the moon.
Today, as nations scramble to exploit the resources of the ocean floor, The Frontier Below recalls a story of human endeavour that took 2,000 years to travel seven miles, then investigates how we will explore the ocean in the future.
Meticulously researched and drawing extensively on unpublished sources and personal interviews, The Frontier Below is the untold story of the pioneers who had the right stuff, but were forgotten because they went in the wrong direction.
The Frontier Below by Jeff Maynard is a captivating journey through the history of maritime expeditions, the science of physiology, and the economics of resource extraction. It is a testament to human endeavour and the indomitable spirit of exploration, offering a glimpse into the future of our oceans.
For fans of Julian Sancton (Madhouse at the End of the Earth), Buddy Levy (Empire of Ice and Stone), Rachel Lance (In the Waves), James Bradley (Ghost Species), and Helen Czerski (Blue Machine).
