Summary

Cracked Earth Yields explores the urgent issue of increasing aridification and its impact on global food security. It examines how communities can adapt through sustainable agricultural systems, focusing on irrigation techniques and crop modifications. Addressing the geographical distribution of drought under climate change, the book highlights innovative approaches, such as drought-resistant crops like sorghum and millet, to enhance resilience. It underscores the importance of understanding both the successes and environmental consequences of irrigation practices, including soil salinization.

 
The book argues for a combined approach of targeted irrigation, informed crop selection, and community-based resource management. Examining traditional flood irrigation alongside modern drip systems, the book analyzes their efficiency and environmental impact. This approach moves beyond simple fixes, advocating for integrated solutions that consider environmental sustainability and social equity.

 
Structured in three parts, the book starts with the science of drought, then evaluates irrigation methods, and finally focuses on crop diversification. By bridging hydrology, agronomy, climate science, and environmental policy, Cracked Earth Yields offers a comprehensive perspective for scientists, policymakers, and practitioners to understand the complexities of drought and develop effective adaptation strategies.

    Global health is a field that aims to improve health and achieve equity in health for people around the world. It involves understanding health issues that go beyond national boundaries and are influenced by conditions in various parts of the globe.

    We may think of "globalism" as a recent development but its origins date back to the fifteenth century and beyond, when seafarers pioneered routes across the oceans with the objectives of exploration, trade, and profit. These voyages only became possible after certain technical innovations—improvements in ship design, compasses, and mapping—enabled navigation across unprecedented distances. The mariners' embarkation points were the vibrant ports of the West—Venice, Amsterdam, Lisbon—and their destinations the exotic ports of the East—Malacca, Goa, Bombay—where they tracked down the elusive spices, so much in demand by Western palates. 
 
 
 
This development of maritime communication brought benefits apart from culinary delights: the spread of ideas on art, literature, and science. But it was not necessarily beneficial for everyone concerned: colonial ambitions were often disastrous for local populations, who were frequently exploited as slave plantation labor. 
 
 
 
This wide-ranging account of a fascinating period of global history uses original maps and contemporary artists' views to tell the story of how each port developed individually while also encouraging us to consider contrasting points of view of the benefits and the damages of the maritime spice trade.
