Synopsis

Geyser Terraces explores the captivating formation of mineral-rich terraces around geysers, delving into the interplay of geothermal activity, water chemistry, and mineral deposition. It reveals how these geological formations are scientifically significant and aesthetically unique. The book highlights the role of extremophiles in shaping terrace morphology and contributing to mineralization. Did you know geothermal areas have been recognized and utilized by humans for millennia, from bathing in hot springs to harnessing geothermal energy for electricity generation? The book builds on existing research in volcanology, hydrogeology, geochemistry, and microbiology, presenting a synthesis of current knowledge on geyser terrace formation.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with the principles of geothermal energy and the global distribution of geyser fields. Subsequent chapters build an understanding of subsurface hydrology, water chemistry, and mineral deposition. It uses a process-oriented approach, emphasizing the interplay of physical, chemical, and biological factors that shape these landscapes. The book also touches on ecology, environmental science, and even astrobiology. The study of mineral precipitation in these systems has implications for understanding biomineralization processes in other geological settings.

    Tequila Wars - Jose Cuervo and...

    At the dawn of the twentieth century, José Cuervo inherited his family's humble distillery, La Rojeña, in the Tequila Valley. Within a decade, it would become Mexico's leading producer of tequila. But when the Mexican Revolution erupted, a charge of treason and a death threat against him by Pancho Villa forced Cuervo to flee. His disappearance turned him into an obscure, shadowy historical figure. 
     
     
     
    In Tequila Wars, award-winning author Ted Genoways restores Cuervo to his place as a key player in Mexico's formative period. Before the revolution, Cuervo's acclaim spread worldwide, and once war broke out, Cuervo remained an impresario, kingmaker, and cultural force. In the face of his own government's corruption and the nationalism of his northern neighbors, Cuervo reached American drinkers by establishing Mexico’s covert form of cross-border commerce with the United States. As the largest and most important distilleries in the Tequila Valley recognized the threat posed by Mexico's unraveling, Cuervo also lobbied for suspending normal competition in favor of "a union of tequila makers"—what would become the first Mexican cartel. 
     
     
     
    The first biography of Cuervo, Tequila Wars uncovers the history of the man who would forever change not only the business of tequila, but international relations between Mexico and the United States.
