Sinopse

"Endangered Species" delivers a compelling exploration of the global plant extinction crisis, revealing that one in five plant species currently faces extinction - a rate that has increased 500-fold due to human activities.This comprehensive work bridges the gap between scientific research and practical conservation, examining both the causes of botanical biodiversity loss and the innovative solutions being implemented worldwide. The book progresses systematically from fundamental plant biology and ecology to specific conservation strategies, incorporating real-world case studies from six continents. Notable examples include the preservation of Hawaii's silversword and the restoration of Mediterranean cork oak woodlands.Through a unique combination of long-term ecological monitoring data, genetic studies, and climate modeling, the text presents evidence-based approaches to species preservation while highlighting the crucial intersection of modern science with traditional ecological knowledge. What sets this work apart is its holistic approach to plant conservation, connecting botanical science with climate research, indigenous knowledge, and economic implications.The authors draw from two decades of field research to provide detailed analyses of both successful and failed conservation efforts, making it invaluable for conservation professionals and environmental scientists while remaining accessible to general readers interested in biodiversity. The book concludes with practical protocols for endangered plant identification and conservation planning, offering tangible solutions for preserving our planet's botanical heritage.

    When the City Stopped - Stories...

    In When the City Stopped, Robert Snyder tells the story of COVID-19 in the words of ordinary New Yorkers, illuminating the fear and uncertainty of life in the early weeks and months, as well as the solidarity that sustained the city. New Yorkers were "alone together," separated by the protective measures of social distancing and the fundamental inequalities of life and work in New York City. Through their personal accounts, we see that while many worked from home, others knowingly exposed themselves to the dangers of the pandemic as they drove buses, ran subways, answered 911 calls, tended to the sick, and made and delivered meals. 
     
     
     
    Snyder builds bridges of knowledge and empathy between those who bore dangerous burdens and those who lived in relative safety. The story is told through the words of health care workers, grocery clerks, transit workers, and community activists who recount their experiences in poems, first-person narratives, and interviews. When the City Stopped preserves for future generations what it was like to be in New York when it was at the center of the pandemic.

    Habit Forming - Drug Addiction...

    Habitual drug use in the United States is at least as old as the nation itself. Habit Forming traces the history of unregulated drug use and dependency before 1914, when the Harrison Narcotic Tax Act limited sales of opiates and cocaine under US law. Many Americans used opiates and other drugs medically and became addicted. Some tried Hasheesh Candy, injected morphine, or visited opium dens, but neither use nor addiction was linked to crime, due to the dearth of restrictive laws. After the Civil War, American presses published extensively about domestic addiction. Later in the nineteenth century, many used cocaine and heroin as medicine. As addiction became a major public health issue, commentators typically sympathized with white, middle-class drug users, while criticizing such use by poor or working-class people and people of color. When habituation was associated with middle-class morphine users, few advocated for restricted drug access. By the 1910s, as use was increasingly associated with poor young men, support for regulations increased. In outlawing users' access to habit-forming drugs at the national level, a public health problem became a larger legal and social problem, one with an enduring influence on American drug laws and their enforcement.
