Summary

Drought and Crops examines the escalating global challenge of feeding the world amidst more frequent and severe droughts. It delves into the science of crop failures, exploring the ecological and economic impacts while investigating adaptation strategies for drought-resilient agriculture. Understanding plant responses to water stress is crucial, as is predicting drought impacts on agricultural yields. The book emphasizes that drought isn't just an environmental problem; it's deeply intertwined with climate change, population growth, and global food security, echoing historical events like the Dust Bowl.

 
The book progresses from fundamental concepts of drought to the physiological effects on plant growth, and then explores adaptation strategies like breeding for drought tolerance and optimizing irrigation. A key aspect is translating scientific knowledge into practical advice for farmers and policymakers, using accessible language to explain complex concepts. This approach highlights the need for a multi-faceted response, integrating scientific understanding, technological innovation, and policy interventions to fortify agricultural systems against drought.

    It started with a hummingbird dive-bombing Amelia Thomas over her morning coffee, and a pair of piglets who just wouldn't stay put. Soon Amelia, journalist and new farmer, begins to question the communications of the creatures all around her. Are they all just animals reacting instinctually to the world around them—or are they trying to communicate something deeper? 
 
Driven by lifelong curiosity, Amelia embarks on a journey to uncover what animals truly seek to say to humans. On the way, along with groundbreaking chimps and circumspect octopuses, she'll meet an extraordinary cast of experts, from animal behaviorists and anthrozoologists to trackers and psychologists, and even explore the surprising insights of pet psychics, A.I. researchers, and animal mindfulness practitioners. Each perspective offers a new layer of understanding about the subtle, complex ways animals connect with us—and will deepen our appreciation for every creature with whom we share our planet. 
 
In What Sheep Think About the Weather, Amelia chronicles her sometimes difficult discoveries with humor, heart, and awe. More than just a memoir, this book is a call to listen—not only to the animals we love but to the untamed world around us. What if the answers to some of humanity's greatest questions have been whispered to us all along?

    Discover the secret method used to build the world . . . 
 
 
 
For millennia, humans have used one simple method to solve problems. Whether it's planting crops, building skyscrapers, developing photographs, or designing the first microchip, all creators follow the same steps to engineer progress. But this powerful method, the "engineering method", is an all but hidden process that few of us have heard of—let alone understand—but that influences every aspect of our lives. 
 
 
 
Bill Hammack, a Carl Sagan Award–winning professor of engineering and viral "The Engineer Guy" on YouTube, has a lifelong passion for the things we make, and how we make them. Now, for the first time, he reveals the invisible method behind every invention and takes us on a whirlwind tour of how humans built the world we know today. From the grand stone arches of medieval cathedrals to the mundane modern soda can, Hammack explains the golden rule of thumb that underlies every new building technique, every technological advancement, and every creative solution that leads us one step closer to a better, more functional world. Spanning centuries and cultures, Hammack offers a fascinating perspective on how humans engineer solutions in a world full of problems.
