Excerpt from Climate Considered Especially in Relation to Man The preparation of a volume on Climate for The Science Series was suggested to me by the Editors in October, 1904. I was asked to prepare a book "which can be read by an intelligent person who has not had special or extended training in the technicalities of the science, ... the book to be such as would not compete with strictly meteorological text-books, but to handle the broad questions of climate." It so happened that it was then already in my mind to prepare a book dealing with certain large relations of climate, which might serve as supplementary reading for the students in my course on General Climatology in Harvard University. The present volume is an attempt on my part to write a book which shall meet the wishes of the Editors of The Science Series and at the same time fit the needs of my students. Climate is based on lecture-notes which have been accumulating for the past ten years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Climates of the Continents A work of this kind must be essentially a compilation from such materials as statistics, more or less adequate, maps showing certain factors of climate, and regional descriptions; the result is largely dependent on the nature of the original sources. A glance at the following pages will show that no uniformity of treatment has been achieved or even attempted. The principle followed has been to present the main features of the climate of each region considered especially in relation to the greater units of the globe. It is' clearly impossible to give any detailed local descriptions in a book of this scope. But it is hoped that the general account may constitute a framework into which detailed local descriptions may be intelligently fitted, a convenient skeleton to carry the details necessary for the special purposes of the meteorologist, the botanist, the zoologist, and the geographer. As it seemed desirable to make each chapter as far as possible complete in itself, repetition has been in some places inevitable.

How the specter of climate has been used to explain history since antiquity Scientists, journalists, and politicians increasingly tell us that human impacts on climate constitute the single greatest threat facing our planet and may even bring about the extinction of our species. Yet behind these anxieties lies an older, much deeper fear about the power that climate exerts over us. The Empire of Climate traces the history of this idea and its pervasive influence over how we interpret world events and make sense of the human condition, from the rise and fall of ancient civilizations to the afflictions of the modern psyche. Taking readers from the time of Hippocrates to the unfolding crisis of global warming today, David Livingstone reveals how climate has been critically implicated in the politics of imperial control and race relations; been used to explain industrial development, market performance, and economic breakdown; and served as a bellwether for national character and cultural collapse. He examines how climate has been put forward as an explanation for warfare and civil conflict, and how it has been identified as a critical factor in bodily disorders and acute psychosis. A panoramic work of scholarship, The Empire of Climate maps the tangled histories of an idea that has haunted our collective imagination for centuries, shedding critical light on the notion that everything from the wealth of nations to the human mind itself is subject to climate’s imperial rule.

Understories: Plants and Culture in the American Tropics establishes the central importance of plants to the histories and cultures of the extended tropical region stretching from the U.S. South to Argentina. Through close examination of a number of significant plants – cacao, mate, agave, the hevea brasilensis, kudzu, the breadfruit, soy, and the ceiba pentandra, among others – this volume shows that vegetal life has played a fundamental role in shaping societies and in formulating cultural and environmental imaginaries in and beyond the region. Drawing on a wide range of cultural traditions and forms across literature, popular music, art, and film, the essays included in this volume transcend regional and linguistic boundaries to bring together multiple plant-centred histories or ‘understories’ – narratives that until now have been marginalized or gone unnoticed. Attending not only to the significant influence of humans on plants, but also of plants on humans, this book offers new understandings of how colonization, globalization, and power were, and continue to be, imbricated with nature in the American tropics.
