Sinossi

In the face of escalating climate change, Dry Land Crops explores the critical role of drought-resistant agriculture in ensuring global food security. It highlights how certain plants, through unique physiological and genetic mechanisms, can thrive in arid conditions. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial, considering that agriculture has historically relied on water-intensive methods, often unsustainable in dry environments. The book reveals actionable strategies for mitigating the impacts of climate change on agricultural systems, emphasizing the necessity of shifting towards crops inherently adapted to water-limited conditions.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the diverse forms of drought resistance, from morphological adaptations to efficient water use. It then delves into the genetic basis of drought tolerance, exploring how molecular biology can accelerate the breeding of drought-resistant varieties. Major sections cover examples of drought-resistant crops, including cultivation techniques and nutritional value.

 
The book uniquely integrates scientific findings with practical experience, making it a valuable resource for farmers, policymakers, and researchers alike. It connects environmental science with sustainable land management, economics, and sociology.

    Technology has long been a driving force in shaping the nature of employment. From the Industrial Revolution to the digital age, advancements in technology have continuously altered the way people work, the skills required, and the overall structure of industries. In today's fast-evolving world, the relationship between technology and employment is more complex than ever. While technological progress brings efficiency, innovation, and new job opportunities, it also presents significant challenges such as job displacement, skill gaps, and the need for constant adaptation. Understanding this dynamic is crucial for individuals, businesses, and policymakers as they navigate the ever-changing landscape of work. 
    The evolution of technology in the workforce has been marked by transformative shifts that redefine how labor is performed. Historically, the introduction of machines, automation, and digital tools has led to the replacement of certain manual and repetitive tasks. However, rather than eliminating jobs entirely, these changes have often resulted in the creation of new roles that require different skill sets. For example, while the rise of automated assembly lines reduced the need for traditional factory workers, it also increased demand for engineers, technicians, and software developers to maintain and improve these systems. Similarly, the widespread adoption of computers and the internet revolutionized industries by enabling remote work, e-commerce, and data-driven decision-making, further expanding employment opportunities in the digital sector.

    This collection of "eloquent essays that examine the relationship between the American landscape and the national character" serves to remind us that despite our differences we all belong to the same land (Publishers Weekly). 
     
     
     
    What does it mean when a nation accustomed to moving begins to settle down, when political discord threatens unity, and when technology disrupts traditional ways of building communities? Is a shared soil enough to reinvigorate a national spirit? 
     
     
     
    From the embaattled newsrooms of small town newspapers to the pornography film sets of the Los Angeles basin, from the check–out lanes of Dollar General to the holy sites of Mormonism, from the nation's highest peaks to the razed remains of a cherished home, like a latter–day Woody Guthrie, Tom Zoellner takes to the highways and byways of a vast land in search of the soul of its people. 
     
     
     
    By turns nostalgic and probing, incisive and enraged, Zoellner's reflections reveal a nation divided by faith, politics, and shifting economies, but—more importantly—one united by a shared sense of ownership in the common land.

    How do artificial neural networks and other forms of artificial intelligence interfere with methods and practices in the sciences? Which interdisciplinary epistemological challenges arise when we think about the use of AI beyond its dependency on big data? Not only the natural sciences, but also the social sciences and the humanities seem to be increasingly affected by current approaches of subsymbolic AI, which master problems of quality (fuzziness, uncertainty) in a hitherto unknown way. But what are the conditions, implications, and effects of these (potential) epistemic transformations and how must research on AI be configured to address them adequately?
