Описание: Ecology is indispensable to understanding the biological world and addressing environmental problems humanity faces. Its philosophy has never been more important. This book introduces the conceptual, theoretical, and methodological issues ecology poses in accessible language, and is illustrated with scientifically informed, up-to-date examples.

Описание: The image of western ranchers making a stand for their “rights”—against developers, the government, “illegal” immigrants—may be commonplace today, but the political power of the cowboy was a long time in the making. In a book steeped in the culture, traditions, and history of western range ranching, Michelle K. Berry takes readers into the Cold War world of cattle ranchers in the American West to show how that power, with its implications for the lands and resources of the mountain states, was built, shaped, and shored up between 1945 and 1965.
After long days working the ranch, battling human and nonhuman threats, and wrestling with nature, ranchers got down to business of another sort, which Berry calls “cow talk.” Discussing the best new machinery; sharing stories of drought, blizzards, and bugs; talking money and management and strategy: these ranchers were building a community specific to their time, place, and work and creating a language that embodied their culture. Cow Talk explores how this language and its iconography evolved and how it came to provide both a context and a vehicle for political power. Using ranchers’ personal papers, publications, and cattle growers association records, the book provides an inside view of how range cattle ranchers in Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana created a culture and a shared identity that would frame and inform their relationship with their environment and with society at large in an increasingly challenging, modernizing world.
A multifaceted analysis of postwar ranch life, labor, and culture, this innovative work offers unprecedented insight into the cohesive political and cultural power of western ranchers in our day.

Описание: Chinese architecture is astonishingly uniform. Buddhists, Daoists, and Muslims, inside China and beyond, built Chinese-style structures the same way for two thousand years, despite mastering new technologies along the way. Nancy Shatzman Steinhardt offers an authoritative overview of design principles that have stood the test of time-and geography.

Описание: In contrast to the linear "take-make-dispose" model of resource consumption, a new industrial model is proposed in the form of a circular economy. This model aims to optimize the use of resources and to reduce or eliminate waste, and is based on re-use, repair, ecodesign, industrial ecology, sustainable supply and responsible consumption.

Описание: Infectious disease outbreaks result in mortality or morbidity of many humans and wild and domestic animals and plants. Many a time that leads to large-scale economic and socio-cultural losses. However, exposure to pathogens does not always lead to infections or the spread of diseases since diverse factors are involved in the manifestation of diseases. The infectious organisms that cause diseases and the host are a part of the multidimensional biodiversity and a quintessential part of the ecological web. Hence, a manifestation of an infectious disease is through a chain of events that favor high contact of the pathogenic species with the host species, directly or indirectly, or through intermediate hosts/vectors. This context makes it important to recognize that preservation of natural habitats possibly has a direct bearing on public health since habitats with high biological diversity have the potential for checks and balances of population growth and could curtail disease transmission and the manifestation of diseases in many a case. Besides, diverse and heterogeneous (and largely anthropogenic) issues such as rapid urbanization, sprawling inroads into natural habitats, increasing human-animal conflicts, decreasing environmental quality, languid waste disposal systems, rising contamination/pollution of the natural systems, increasingly unwholesome lifestyle, etc. makes the condition much more complex.
This book addresses human diseases from a wider and holistic perspective, especially looking at morbidity from an ecological viewpoint. It also looks at infections from an evolutionary perspective. These perspectives, although known, are largely neglected in healthcare systems in vogue. Such a perspective would be an eye-opener for the healthcare providers, and the public at the receiving end of the increasingly expensive healthcare services.
