Sinossi

Geyser Origins explores the fascinating science behind these spectacular natural displays, revealing the complex interplay of geothermal activity, geological formations, and hydrological processes. Geysers require specific conditions to form, including a heat source, a water supply, and a unique plumbing system with a constriction to build pressure. One intriguing fact is the crucial role of siliceous sinter, a mineral deposit left behind by eruptions, in maintaining these constrictions. 

 
The book presents a holistic view of geysers, integrating volcanology, hydrology, and geochemistry to understand their behavior as part of larger earth systems. It examines the regional geological settings, subsurface plumbing, and silica deposition processes that contribute to geyser formation. Case studies from Yellowstone, Iceland, and New Zealand illustrate key principles. 

 
The book progresses from introducing basic concepts to detailing eruption cycles, pressure build-up mechanisms, and factors influencing eruption frequency, ending with the impact of natural and human-induced changes on geyser activity.

    The discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb in 1922 remains one of the most significant archaeological events in history, but it also brought with it a mysterious and terrifying legend—the Curse of the Pharaoh. For centuries, the tomb of the young Egyptian king, who ruled during the 18th dynasty, lay hidden beneath the sands of the Valley of the Kings. It wasn’t until British archaeologist Howard Carter and his financial backer, Lord Carnarvon, unearthed the tomb that the world was introduced to the wonder and mystique surrounding King Tutankhamen’s final resting place. 
    Tutankhamen, who ascended to the throne as a child, died young under uncertain circumstances, leaving behind a legacy that has fascinated historians, archaeologists, and the public alike. His tomb, filled with precious artifacts, murals, and the famous golden mask, was unlike anything ever discovered in ancient Egyptian tombs. Yet, the treasures would be overshadowed by an eerie series of deaths, leading many to believe in a curse linked to the tomb. 
    The first death tied to the curse was that of Lord Carnarvon, who financed the excavation. His sudden death just months after entering the tomb in 1923 shocked the world, and rumors of a deadly curse spread rapidly. Over the next few years, several individuals connected to the tomb’s discovery met untimely and mysterious deaths, fueling the belief that the wrath of Tutankhamen had been unleashed upon those who dared to disturb his resting place.

    Aboriginal culture is one of the oldest and most complex systems of human existence, stretching back over 60,000 years in Australia. The richness of this culture is woven through the landscape, the traditions, the language, and the deep spiritual connections the people have with the land. Far from a singular or homogeneous entity, Aboriginal culture is an intricate tapestry made up of diverse languages, customs, and belief systems that reflect the uniqueness of the many nations that have inhabited Australia for millennia. 
    At the heart of Aboriginal culture lies an unbreakable connection to Country. The concept of Country extends beyond mere geography; it encompasses the land, the waterways, the plants, the animals, and even the ancestors that reside within it. This intimate relationship shapes all aspects of life, from spiritual beliefs to daily practices. For Aboriginal people, their land is not simply a place to live, but a living entity that provides, sustains, and is cared for in return. This relationship is integral to the way Aboriginal communities structure their lives, making respect for and care of the environment a fundamental principle. 
    The Dreamtime, or the time of creation, forms the bedrock of Aboriginal spirituality and cultural practices. It is in this time that ancestral beings shaped the land, the people, and the laws that govern life. These stories, which are passed down through generations, guide and influence the way Aboriginal people live, ensuring their survival and cultural continuity. The Dreamtime is not a distant past but a present reality, interwoven with the lives of modern Aboriginal peoples.

    The environmental crisis will not be solved by battery technology. We are looking for answers in the wrong places. 
     
    Life began with the hydrogenation of CO2, and this is the process we must return to in order to heal the planet. Ground-breaking ongoing research into bacterial processes means our knowledge of bacterial processes is ever-expanding, and we can harness this new knowledge to develop a parallel carbon economy using engineered bacteria for fuel, food, and materials. This would enable rewilding on a vast scale, with the small land footprint of bacterial technologies solving the current conflict in land use between farming and fuel and materials production. 
     
    In this fascinating and illuminating book, Peter Forbes shines a light on this crucial technology and offers a tantalising glimpse at what is possible. To solve the big problems, sometimes you have to think small.
