  • Over the Seawall: Tsunamis, Cyclones, Drought, and the Delusion of Controlling Nature

    BasicBinding: Hardcover

    Author: Miller, Stephen Robert

    Publisher: Island Press

    Date Published: 10-2023

    ISBN: 1642832561 | EAN: 9781642832563

    BasicBinding: Hardcover

    Features: Illustrated, Price on Product | Pages: 264

    Annotation: In March 2011, people in a coastal Japanese city stood atop a seawall watching the approach of the tsunami that would kill them. They believed--naively--that the huge concrete barrier would save them. Instead, they perished, betrayed by the very thing built to protect them.

    Academics call it maladaptation; in simple terms, it's about solutions that backfire. Over the Seawall tells the stories behind these unintended consequences and the fixes that do more harm than good. From seawalls in coastal Japan, to reengineered waters in the Ganges River Delta, to the ribbon of water supporting both farms and cities in parched Arizona, we visit engineering marvels once deemed too smart and too big to fail. After each we better understand how complicated, grandiose schemes fail. Ultimately, we learn that if we are to adapt successfully to climate change, we must recognize that working with nature is not surrender but the only way to assure a secure future.

    BasicBinding: Paperback

    Features: Price on Product | Pages: 64

    Annotation: A state of significant plant diversity, California is home to more species than any other. Weather, elevation, and latitude all play parts in the region's floristic dynamism. For the wild edible plant enthusiast, this means a variety of sustaining forages are to be had, however, they are not all found in one place. With Wild Edible Plants of California (Volume 1), the reader has access to not only the where, but too, the what and when of California's wild edible bounty. Covering the state's most essential forages, preference has been given to plants that are abundant and/or have more caloric/nutritional/traditional value than other edibles. Well-suited for the backpack, cargo-pocket, or glovebox, the publication's form is a 64-page booklet. Over 160 color photos and a state/county location image for every profile assists the reader in plant identification. Aside from the main focus of how to use and prepare each wild edible, additional sections include medicinal uses (if applicable), cautions, and special notes. A sustenance rank, choice edible part/ season indictor, and general index all serve to increase the publication's usefulness.
