The
Joy of
Science
Seven Principles for Scientists Seeking Happiness, Harmony, and Success
Roel Snieder,
Colorado School of Mines
Jen Schneider,
Boise State University, Idaho
We live in an age where working in science or engineering offers tremendous professional opportunities – the pace of scientific development is truly breathtaking. Yet many researchers struggle with the pressures of the fast-paced academic workplace, and struggle to harmonize their work and personal lives. The result can be burnout, exhaustion, and stress on a personal level, and difficulty in recruiting and retaining talented, diverse people to science and engineering. This book, written for graduate students and researchers at all stages of their careers, aims to help scientists by identifying and questioning the core beliefs that drive a culture of overwork, and provides real-world examples and exercises for those wishing to do things differently.
Paperback 9781316509005 Hardback 9781107145559

TEXTBOOK
Introduction to Modern Climate Change Second edition Andrew Dessler Texas A & M University
The thoroughly updated second edition of an invaluable textbook for any introductory survey course on the science and policy of climate change. ‘I’m delighted to see an updated edition of Dessler’s textbook; the new edition reminds me why I liked the book so much in the first place. I used the first edition for my climate literacy courses for first-year non-science majors, as I was so impressed with its simple and compelling coverage of the science of climate change, and, just as importantly, its social and political context. The students loved the book – some even commented that it was the first time they had actually understood and enjoyed reading a science book. The revised version brings the book completely up to date, and will ensure it remains my number one recommendation for an introductory text on climate change.’ Steve Easterbrook, University of Toronto

liberal use of section headings and typesetting to highlight key concepts. Color line-drawings, plots, and a few pictures add to the appeal of the text as well, visually conveying difficult concepts such as spatial correlation and cross-correlation fields. Each chapter is nicely summarized through a key list of take-home points, and ends with a short set of exercises that test conceptual and quantitative understanding … The content of the book assumes only a basic background in fluid mechanics or hydrogeology, and thus can serve as a relatively self-contained reference on pumpingtest models … Chapter 9, in particular, sets this book apart from classical pumping-test analyses through its presentation of the stochastic modeling approach and discussion of hydraulic tomography.’ Michael Cardiff, Groundwater

Geomorphology in the Anthropocene Andrew S. Goudie University of Oxford
and Heather A. Viles University of Oxford
This book, for undergraduate and graduate students and researchers, examines effects on geomorphology within the Anthropocene period. It describes how humans have a major influence on the Earth’s systems, and how this is being accelerated through changes in technology, population, and land cover changes. Future climate change is also discussed. ‘Among contemporary physical geographers, there are none who are the equal of Andrew S. Goudie and Heather A. Viles in their ability to synthesize vast areas of the literature and to bring out new meanings from the avalanche of data that is published each week … This is the first book that explores, in depth, the relation between the Anthropocene epoch and landscape science (geomorphology) … [It] can be recommended to any serious student of the global implications of human modification of Earth’s surface … [as well as to the] geoscience and environmental science communities, from geographers to geologists and geophysicists.’ Olav Slaymaker, University of British Columbia

HIGHLIGHT Natural Hazards and Risk Reduction in the Modern World Timothy H. Dixon
What does Japan’s 2011 nuclear accident have in common with the 2005 flooding of New Orleans from Hurricane Katrina? This thought-provoking book presents a compelling account of recent and historical disasters, both natural and human-caused, drawing out common themes and providing a holistic understanding of hazards, disasters and mitigation, for anyone interested in this important and topical subject. Based on his on-the-ground experience with several major recent disasters, Timothy H. Dixon explores the science, politics and economics behind a variety of disasters and environmental issues, arguing that many of the worst effects are avoidable. He describes examples of planning and safety failures, provides forecasts of future disasters and proposes solutions for hazard mitigation. The book shows how billions of dollars and countless lives could be saved by adopting longer-term thinking for infrastructure planning and building, and argues that better communication is vital in reducing global risks and preventing future catastrophes. 2016 228 x 152 mm 346pp 51 b/w illus. 6 tables 978-1-107-03518-8 Hardback £21.99 / US$29.99 Publication December 2016 For all formats available, see

Environmental policy, economics and law The Politics of Environmental Performance Institutions and Preferences in Industrialized Democracies Detlef Jahn Ernst-Moritz-Arndt-Universität Greifswald, Germany
As the world faces the prospect of climate change, nuclear disasters, and water scarcity, it is clear that environmental degradation is an increasingly serious challenge with economic and social consequences. In this book, Detlef Jahn analyzes the role of politics in the field of environmental performance in 21 OECD countries. ‘This excellent study shows how various styles of politics exist simultaneously in modern democracies. In environmental politics there are clashes between prioritizing the environment over growth and vice versa. However, there is also a consensus style in some areas of environmental politics, which may be more efficient in the end. A major contribution of this study is the agenda setting power model which illustrates how these two strategies work in democracies. The conclusions build on a rigorous data analysis which underlines the argument compellingly. This approach provides a very attractive model for other studies in the field of macro-comparative politics.’ Arend Lijphart, Research Professor Emeritus of Political Science, University of California, San Diego

Greening the Globe World Society and Environmental Change Ann Hironaka University of California, Irvine
Globalization has moved us toward becoming a world society with a common culture. Greening the Globe argues that international efforts to address environmental problems are often successful in the long run by setting the political agenda, by empowering environmental groups and citizens, and by changing our perceptions of environmental problems. ‘Greening the Globe applies the world society perspective to understand the emergence and institutionalization of an international environmental regime. But Hironaka goes beyond policy diffusion to examine actual changes in environmental outcomes. This is a must-read for scholars interested in global social change dynamics regardless of their theoretical orientation.’ Francisco Ramirez, Stanford University, California

Towards a Cultural Politics of Climate Change provides a new perspective on how climate change matters in policy-making, business and everyday life. Through this approach it opens up questions about how, where and by whom climate politics is conducted and
‘Damilola S. Olawuyi has tackled the intersection of three issues of great complexity and even greater importance: the design of projects that are needed to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, and thus
avoid the worst effects of climate change; the methods being used to pay for these projects; and the effect that the projects will have on the communities (often indigenous populations) that live in or near the places where these projects are carried out. This book displays a mastery of the actual problems these projects face in the real world … It also presents concrete proposals for reconciling at least some of the conflicts. Human rights and climate finance have too often been very separate spheres of study; Olawuyi has now brought them together in a way that performs a great service in helping us understand and constructively deal with the tensions between them.’ Michael B.

Scientists Making a Difference is a volume of first-person narratives from the top psychological scientists of modern times, written for students in undergraduate courses and graduate seminars. The book will also appeal to professional psychologists, scientists and scholars interested in the views of the leading figures in their field. ‘In 100 autobiographical essays, psychology’s preeminent contributors reveal the roots and fruits of their famed contributions. Here are stories for posterity, from the funding barriers that challenged Thomas Bouchard’s study of reared-apart twins, to Michael Gazzaniga’s exhilaration on discovering the wonders of human split-brains, to Carol Dweck’s ‘mesearch’ on how she and others could find a thriving mindset when facing obstacles. This is living history – and a great read for both psychological scientists and students.’ David G. Myers, Hope College, Michigan

Why Quark Rhymes with Pork And Other Scientific Diversions N. David Mermin Cornell University, New York
A collection of offbeat, entertaining and primarily nontechnical essays on physics and those who practice it, from eminent theoretical physicist N. David Mermin. Bringing together for the first time all thirty of his columns published in Physics Today’s Reference Frame
Visit our website at www.cambridge.org/academic
22
Also of interest series from 1988 to 2009, with updating commentary, this humorous and unusual volume includes thirteen other essays, many of them previously unpublished. Mermin’s lively and penetrating writing illuminates a broad range of topics, from the implications of bad spelling in a major science journal, to the crises of science libraries and scientific periodicals, the folly of scientific prizes and honors, the agony of getting funding, and how to pronounce ‘quark’. His witty observations and insightful anecdotes gleaned from a lifetime in science will entertain physicists at all levels, as well as anyone else interested in science or scientists at the turn of the twenty-first century. ‘This delightful collection of essays should be on the bookshelf of anyone who cares about the human side of physics; it kept me amply entertained for the whole of a transatlantic air trip. I particularly like Mermin’s discussion of the ‘science wars’, where his analysis is orders of magnitude more sophisticated than those of most of the combatants on either side.’ Anthony Leggett, University of Illinois, UrbanaChampaign, and Nobel Laureate in Physics 2016 216 x 138 mm 370pp 978-1-107-02430-4 Hardback £19.99 / US$29.99 For all formats available, see

Statistics Explained An Introductory Guide for Life Scientists Second edition Steve McKillup Central Queensland University
This book provides straightforward conceptual explanations of statistical methods for the life sciences, specially designed for students lacking a strong mathematical background. ‘Every so often, a researcher or teacher comes across a book and exclaims ‘I wish I had had a book like this when I started!’ … Statistics Explained is such a book. Steve McKillup writes with empathy for students’ anxiety about statistics. He replaces complex-looking formulae with graphics and realistic examples. He is a biologist writing for fellowbiologists … [The book] explains why the statistical test is needed before describing the test. Essential features of good survey and experimental design are clearly outlined … This is not ‘just another biostatistics textbook’. Its sheer readability will restore confidence to the most anxious student while experienced researchers will savour the clarity of the explanations of the common univariate and multivariate analyses … an ideal core text for anyone teaching or studying biostatistics …’ Andrew Boulton, University of New England, Australia

COVER PHOTO The paperweights shown on the front cover were produced in 1889 by Macintyre and Co. with a double hemisphere map provided by the Edinburgh form of J.G. Bartholomew. The map was only the second known to have named Antarctica as such with a legend on the conjectured continent, and by including parts of it within the British empire it was possibly the first ever political map of Antarctica. See the note by Rip Bulkeley in this issue.
