Ecological Problems

Tech Tides
How Innovation Shapes Global Power
By Edoardo Giglio
An expert in international risk management and strategic intelligence shows how innovation strategies are replacing military might as the most important tool for establishing geopolitical influence in today’s digitally connected world.
Tech Tides offers readers an inside look at the innovation strategies countries employ to compete, collaborate, or simply remain relevant in today’s global innovation ecosystem. Each case study offers a deep dive into current events, such as those in Israel and Ukraine, to show how an innovation strategy can work positively— or negatively—in the long run, the costs of being outside the global innovation ecosystem and benefits of working within it. Ultimately, readers will come away with a hopeful mindset, one of global collaboration and shared responsibility rather than isolationism.
Edoardo Giglio is lead Partner for Cyber & Strategic Risk for Deloitte’s Risk Advisory for Government & Public Sector, leading the NATO and Defense, Security & Justice accounts. He advises the UN, NATO, the EU, and individual governments as well as international organizations, corporations, philanthropies, think tanks, and universities on devising their national strategies.

Space to Live
By Roderick J. Hill
Space to Live deals with the important contemporary issues of the accelerating search for the existence of life forms beyond Earth, the threats to human life on Earth in the near or distant future due to one or more global catastrophes, and the growing push towards the establishment of a human presence on the Moon and Mars, and perhaps elsewhere in or beyond the Solar System.
Space to Live responds to all three of these imperatives by discussing why human life on Earth is not assured in the short and medium term, options for colonisation of moons and planets elsewhere within and outside the Solar System, the implications for human survival on these potential platforms/planets, and what this means for the definition of “humanity’ itself.
It discusses the current and potential future technologies by means of which we might attempt to get to these platforms, and considers the physical, psychological, social, political, and spiritual challenges that would need to be overcome in so doing.
Roderick J. Hill is a retired Chief Research Scientist and senior manager in the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) and Pro Vice Chancellor for Industry Engagement and Commercialisation at Monash University.

The Year Science Changed Everything
1957’s International Geophysical Year and the Future of Our Planet
By Mark O’Connell
In 1957, 60,000 scientists from sixty-six countries around the world temporarily erased Earth’s artificial borders and joined forces for eighteen months to unlock the mysteries of our home planet. Their shared mission: to explore, measure, map, and study the Earth’s geology, oceans, volcanos, and atmosphere, to study the impact of the sun on the Earth’s climate, to explore the many ways that human activity affects the health of our planet, and to apply every branch of geophysical science for the first time ever as “a potent force in international affairs.” It was The International Geophysical Year (IGY), and the discoveries made during that year established a new foundation for science that affects our lives nearly every day.
The Year Science Changed Everything charts the struggles and successes of 1957’s IGY alongside interviews with today’s leading environmental scientists to show that the time is right for another global environmental initiative.
Mark O’Connell is a screenwriter, university lecturer, and author. Currently, O’Connell is a featured commentator in UFOs: Investigating the Unknown, a documentary mini-series for the National Geographic Channel.

The Healers
Physicians, Spiritualists, and Shamans in the Search for Holistic Health
By Thomas S. Helling
Celebrated surgeon and medical historian, Thomas S. Helling, offers brief biographies of medical healers through the ages, from the ancient Greeks to the present day, illuminating various approaches to healing body and spirit.
The Healers traces notable people in Western history who tried to decipher the mysteries of illness and health. The book focuses on women and men with unique perspectives in healing—some “traditional” physicians, shamans from Indigenous peoples, some focused on the body, some on the spirit. Each one illuminated the extreme complexity of humanness but also the extreme delicacy: human beings of organs and tissues and blood but also of worry and fear and sorrow. Suffering affects both. And each healer was human themselves.
Thomas Helling, MD, is a tenured Professor of Surgery at the University of Mississippi Medical Center. He is the author of several books, including America’s Wounded 1941-1945 for which he was awarded the Harry D. Langley Book Prize by the Society for the History of Navy Medicine in 2019. Helling currently resides in Madison, Mississippi and Lenexa, Kansas. Learn more about his publications at thomashelling.com.

Something in the Air
A Four-Season Guide to Our Health and the Weather
By Anthony R. Wood
The human body and the atmosphere meet at one of the most magical and complex intersections in the known universe. That the weather intensifies or even causes human pain and discomfort is a truth held to be self-evident through the ages by hundreds of millions of people all over the world. From arthritis to asthma, allergies to the flu, Vitamin D deficiencies to seasonal affective disorder, to feel ill or be sick is to be “under the weather.”
Something in the Air is a conversational, historical, clinical, and factual tour of the science of biometeorology, addressing what is known about weather-health interaction and separating reality from folklore.
Anthony R. Wood has been a staff writer for The Philadelphia Inquirer for more than 35 years, and has written on a broad menu of subjects. Wood has been nominated for Pulitzer Prizes four times. He was co-author of the series, Crisis on the Coast, published as a book, which warned five years before Katrina that an epochal hurricane disaster was inevitable. He has won numerous awards, including a National Association of Science Writers citation for his series on the Gulf Stream and a Society of Professional Journalists award for environmental writing.

The Fearful Mind
A Psychological Portrait of Our Most Misunderstood Emotion
By Alby Elias
Fear is a universal emotion and is typically depicted as a despicable one. While fear is regarded as nature’s imperfect wisdom, often undesirable, and a sign of weakness, its role in maintaining human life is overlooked. In the middle of ubiquitous repulsion against fear, there is minuscule literature on the beneficial effects of fear and the consequences of fearlessness. Recent research has thrown light into the unconscious processing of fear. In sharp contrast to the existing literature, this book argues that fear, overriding all other emotions, operates relentlessly in the unconscious mind as a motivating force and renders life compatible with survival. Fear appeals can bring healthy behavioral changes; the stronger the appeal, the more persuasive it is.
This book expands the concept of eustress, a positive reaction to stress, and describes the beneficial aspects of fear. The book gives a twist to the conventional view of fear as an unwanted emotion and draws a new hypothesis that fear is the primary emotion and a constant psychological operative, a lack of which poses dangerous consequences.

More than 100 years after her birth, Judy Garland remains the gold standard by which all movie musical leading ladies are judged. Her image, especially “Dorothy” in The Wizard of Oz (1939), is an instantly recognized icon. Garland really was the voice of MGM during her tenure and after. There have been many books about Garland’s fabled and troubled life, but none devoted solely to the study (and celebration) of her years at MGM. She entered the studio as a 13-year-old contract player in 1935. She left the studio in 1950 carrying the title “Metro’s Greatest Asset.”
Judy Garland: The Voice of MGM will be the definitive book about Garland’s legendary career at MGM, pulling back the curtain to reveal the truths about that career while also presenting previously unknown details and facts that are sure to delight her fans as well as fans of classic film.
Scott Brogan is the webmaster and author of the world-famous The Judy Room website which includes the biggest and most detailed Garland discography ever compiled. He is also the author and webmaster of the Judy Garland News & Events blog. For four years, Brogan worked as a researcher and author for the San Francisco Silent Film Festival. He lives in Kansas City, Missouri.

When Rock Met Hip-Hop
How Run-DMC, Aerosmith, Anthrax, The Beastie Boys, and More Crossed Cultural and Musical Boundaries
By Steven Blush
One of the most important events in modern music remains the late 80s crosscollision of rock and hip hop. Aerosmith/ Run DMC, Beastie Boys Paul’s Boutique, Public Enemy and Anthrax, Rick Rubin and Russell Simmons, De La Soul and Third Bass, and the 318 hip hop records that sampled Billy Squier’s “The Big Beat exemplify the era. Rap records sampled rock bands, elevating sampling into an art form, while influencing all other forms of popular music. One of the themes this book will explore is the way the fusion of rap and rock gave hope to a sense of interracial harmony. When Rock Met Hip-Hop relates the musical cross collision, and cultural fallout that changed music for the better, and remains an influence through today.
Steven Blush has written seven books about rock and pop culture including: New York Rock (2016), When Rock Met Disco (Backbeat, 2023), and When Rock Met Reggae (2024) — as well as about Billie Jean King’s rebel tennis league, Bustin’ Balls (2020) currently in television development by Billie Jean and Hannah Storm. He wrote and produced the theatrically released Sundance Film Festival-premiered doc film American Hardcore (Sony Pictures Classics, 2006). Backbeat

Little Climber
By Danielle Sarli - Illustrated by Amanda Joy Hogan
Colorado-based climbing partners Danielle Sarli and Amanda Hogan teamed up to create Little Climber – an illustrated children’s picture book featuring Mack – a little girl who loves climbing. She climbs trees, telephone poles, and basketball hoops, but is always told to get down by concerned adults. That is until one day at gym, when her teacher, Miss Hill, notices her talent for climbing and shows her that rock climbing – with the proper equipment – is a much safer way for her to climb. The culmination is a climbing trip where Mack discovers that rock climbing can be a fun and safe outlet for her passion, and instead of being told to come down, she’s encouraged to reach the top.
Danielle Sarli is an award-winning children’s musician and a preschool/ kindergarten teacher in Colorado. Danielle has climbed in some of the best destinations in the country, from Rocky Mountain National Park, to Yosemite, Red Rock, El Potrero Chico, and more.

In this energetic and entertaining biography, Batchelor explores how Lee capitalized on natural talent and hard work to become the editor of Marvel Comics as a teenager.

Marvel superheroes became a central part of pop culture, from collecting comics to innovative merchandising, from superhero action figures to the ever-present Spider-Man lunchbox.

“Why aren’t I as wealthy as I should be?” Many people ask this question of themselves all the time. Often they are hard-working, well educated middle- to high-income people. Why, then, are so few affluent. For nearly two decades the answer has been found in the bestselling The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America’s Wealthy, reissued with a new foreword for the twenty-first century.
According to the authors, most people have it all wrong about how you become wealthy in America. Wealth in America is more often the result of hard work, diligent savings, and living below your means than it is about inheritance, advance degrees, and even intelligence. The Millionaire Next Door identifies seven common traits that show up again and again among those who have accumulated wealth. In fact, you will learn that the flashy millionaires glamorized in the media represent only a tiny minority of America’s rich.
Thomas J. Stanley was an author, lecturer, and researcher who started studying the affluent in 1973. He died in 2015.
William D. Danko is professor emeritus at the School of Business, State University of New York at Albany.

The Next Millionaire Next Door Enduring Strategies for Building Wealth
By Thomas J. Stanley PhD and Sarah Stanley Fallaw PhD
The book examines wealth in America 20 years after Dr. Stanley’s groundbreaking work on self-made affluence. While a new generation of household financial managers are being inundated with the proliferation financial advice, The Next Millionaire Next Door provides readers with an analysis of what it takes to achieve wealth with data-based conclusions and evidence from those who have built wealth on their own over the last two decades. In this current work, the authors detail how specific decisions, behaviors, and characteristics align with the discipline of wealth building, covering areas such as consumption, budgeting, careers, investing, and financial management in general. Through case studies, survey research, and a careful examination of quantitative studies of wealth, the authors illustrate what it takes to achieve financial success today, regardless of market conditions or rising costs.

The 1920s Paris of Hemingway, Chanel, Cocteau, Cole Porter, Josephine Baker, and Their Friends
By Mary McAuliffe
When Paris Sizzled vividly portrays the City of Light during the fabulous 1920s, les Années folles, when Parisians emerged from the horrors of war to find that a new world greeted them—one that reverberated with the hard metallic clang of the assembly line, the roar of automobiles, and the beat of jazz. Mary McAuliffe traces a decade that saw seismic change on almost every front, from art and architecture to music, literature, fashion, entertainment, transportation, and, most notably, behavior.
Paris of the 1920s unquestionably sizzled. Yet rather than being a decade of unmitigated bliss, les Années folles also saw an undercurrent of despair as well as the rise of ruthless organizations of the extreme right, aimed at annihilating whatever threatened tradition and order—a struggle that would escalate in the years ahead. Through rich illustrations and evocative narrative, Mary McAuliffe brings this vibrant era to life.
Mary McAuliffe holds a PhD in history from the University of Maryland. She has traveled extensively in France, and for many years she was a regular contributor to Paris Notes. Her books include Dawn of the Belle Epoque and Paris Discovered. She lives in Manhattan with her husband.

The Origins of the Modern World
A Global and Environmental Narrative from the Fifteenth to the Twenty-First Century, Fifth Edition
By Robert B. Marks
This clearly written and engrossing book presents a global narrative of the origins of the modern world from 1400 to the present. Unlike most studies, which assume that the “rise of the West” is the story of the coming of the modern world, this history, drawing upon new scholarship on Asia, Africa, and the New World and upon the maturing field of environmental history, constructs a story in which those parts of the world play major roles, including their impacts on the environment.
Now in a new edition that brings the saga of the modern world to the present in an environmental context, the book considers how and why the United States emerged as a world power in the twentieth century and became the sole superpower by the twenty-first century, and why the changed relationship of humans to the environmental likely will be the hallmark of the modern era—the Anthropocene.
Robert B. Marks was Richard and Billie Deihl Professor of History at Whittier College and the author of China: Its Environment and History (R&L 2012) and Tigers, Rice, Silk, and Silt: Environment and Economy in Late Imperial China (CUP 1998).

The Lives and Works of 50 Famous Mathematicians
By Alfred S. Posamentier and Christian Spreitzer
Mathematics today is the fruit of centuries of brilliant insights by men and women whose personalities and life experiences were often as extraordinary as their mathematical achievements. This entertaining history of mathematics chronicles those achievements through fifty short biographies that bring these great thinkers to life while making their contributions understandable to readers with little math background. Among the fascinating characters profiled are Isaac Newton (1642–1727), the founder of classical physics and infinitesimal calculus; Sophie Germain (1776–1831), who studied secretly at the Ecole Polytechnique in Paris, using the name of a previously enrolled male student—she is remembered for her work on Fermat’s Last Theorem and on elasticity theory; Emmy Noether (1882–1935), whom Albert Einstein described as the most important woman in the history of mathematics.
Alfred S. Posamentier has published over sixty books in the area of mathematics and mathematics education.

Only One You
By Linda Kranz
There’s only one you in this great big world. Make it a better place. Adri’s mama and papa share some of the wisdom they have gained through the years with their eager son. Their words, simple and powerful, are meant to comfort and guide him as he goes about exploring the world. This exquisitely illustrated book explodes with color and honest insights. Kranz’s uniquely painted rockfish, set against vibrant blue seas, make an unforgettable and truly special impression. Only One You will inspire parents and children of all ages as they swim through the sea of life.
You Be You
By Linda Kranz
When little Adri sets out to explore the ocean, he has no idea how colorful the world is. He quickly discovers that there are all kinds of fish in the deep blue sea—big and tiny, smooth and spiny, colorful and plain, different and the same. In this companion book to the best-selling Only One You, Kranz uses her famous rockfish to convey the message of beauty in difference in a vibrant and engaging way that will get kids hooked.
Linda Kranz, winner of the IRA children’s choices award, is the author of many books and journals, including Only One You. Linda lives with her husband in Flagstaff, Arizona
