Sinossi

Windiest Cities explores the profound impact of wind on our planet, examining its geological influence and how humans adapt to these blustery environments. It highlights how wind shapes landscapes through erosion and deposition, creating unique formations. The book also delves into human adaptation, looking at wind-resistant architecture and cultural practices shaped by persistent gusts. 

 
The book provides a foundation in meteorology and geography, explaining pressure systems and local wind patterns to understand why certain areas are so windy. For example, the book considers how wind energy production connects it to the field of renewable energy and sustainable development.

 
Through case studies of regions like Patagonia and Antarctic coasts, the book explores the geological impact, cultural adaptations, and future implications of changing wind patterns due to climate change. The approach is fact-based and analytical, using meteorological data, geological surveys, and human stories to illustrate the power of wind.

 
Beginning with aerodynamic principles, it progresses through regional case studies, concluding with a look at the future impact of climate change on wind patterns, making it a valuable resource for those interested in Earth Sciences, Geography, and Nature.

    Is your spiritual life more like a fast-food run than an intimate dinner for two?Whether it’s the busy mother’s wish to be Wonder Woman—minus the metal bra—or battles with an exploding hot water heater, or fighting the “Resolutionary War” of New Year’s Day, Mary Pierce understands the dilemmas of being a woman in today’s 24/7 world. From disorganized misery to extreme organizational mania (she used to refer to her children by their household chores: Cat Box Boy, Dishwasher Girl, and Garbage Can Baby), Pierce deals with our fumbling attempts to grow closer to God, encouraging us as she invites us to laugh, cry, love, embrace life, and pray!In her humorous, conversational style, Pierce laughs at her mistakes and her prayers that seem more like advertising jingles (Lord, I need a break today, and Can you hear me now, Lord?). In Confessions of a Prayer Wimp, you’ll come to understand that faith is less about what you are or do or say, and more about who God is—someone who loves you no matter what you do.

    In June 2016 I decided to sell my house of 22 years and leave my comfort zone. Slowly the Camino de Santiago showed itself and I decided, with no rucksack or hiking experience to start...  But that’s another story, the one that led to this one.My Camino in Spain taught me to let go of everything I didn’t need, to travel light and wash my clothes in the shower, but most importantly it taught me to trust my heart and my feet, to let my journey unfold naturally, instinctively, intuitively.  In the words of the theme song from my favourite TV show, “Nobody knows where they might end up” when they follow their heart.Riding high on reaching the true destination of my Camino I raced to the airport to leave a country I had fallen in love with but which I’d had enough of (for the moment).  There were two flights out that night; Seattle or Vancouver.  Which country would I end up in next?  My heart was calling me to Seattle, the Emerald City, the home of my TV family, but it all depended on my cab driver and how fast I could run with a loaded rucksack.
