Humanity in the twenty-first century is facing what might be described as its ultimate environmental catastrophe: the destruction of the climate that has nurtured human civilization and with it the basis of life on earth as we know it. All ecosystems on the planet are now in decline. Enormous rifts have been driven through the delicate fabric of the biosphere. The economy and the earth are headed for a fateful collision—if we don't alter course. In The Ecological Rift: Capitalism’s War on the Earth environmental sociologists John Bellamy Foster, Brett Clark, and Richard York offer a radical assessment of both the problem and the solution. They argue that the source of our ecological crisis lies in the paradox of wealth in capitalist society, which expands individual riches at the expense of public wealth, including the wealth of nature. In the process, a huge ecological rift is driven between human beings and nature, undermining the conditions of sustainable existence: a rift in the metabolic relation between humanity and nature that is irreparable within capitalist society, since integral to its very laws of motion. Critically examining the sanguine arguments of mainstream economists and technologists, Foster, Clark, and York insist instead that fundamental changes in social relations must occur if the ecological (and social) problems presently facing us are to be transcended. Their analysis relies on the development of a deep dialectical naturalism concerned with issues of ecology and evolution and their interaction with the economy. Importantly, they offer reasons for revolutionary hope in moving beyond the regime of capital and toward a society of sustainable human development.

To save a world, he must risk his own. While testing fireworks, orphan Sam shoots down a dragon and her knight. A dying emperor begs his wife, Maria, to abdicate and avoid the ensuing power struggle for their failing empire. With her mind bound to the human who shot her out of the sky, Eliana upsets her father’s plans for returning their people to their home world. Rifts, invisible gates between worlds and a source of magical energy, connect the fates of Sam, Maria and Eliana. Sam’s destiny is to seal the Rifts. Unbeknown to Maria, her dead son and heir to the empire, Sam, still lives. And if the Rifts close, Eliana and her people can’t return home. Set in a world where animals host human souls, machines weave magic and people aren’t who they claim to be, Rifts is the first book in a three-part epic fantasy series.

Expert petroleum geologists David Roberts and Albert Bally bring you Regional Geology and Tectonics: Phanerozoic Passive Margins, Cratonic Basins and Global Tectonic Maps, volume three in a three-volume series covering Phanerozoic regional geology and tectonics. Its key focus is on both volcanic and non-volcanic passive margins, and the importance of salt and shale driven by sedimentary tectonics to their evolution. Recent innovative research on such critical locations as Iberia, Newfoundland, China, and the North Sea are incorporated to provide practical real-world case studies in regional geology and tectonics. The vast amount of volcanic data now available to form accurate hydrocarbon assessments and analysis at passive margin locations is also included into this thorough yet accessible reference. Named a 2013 Outstanding Academic Title by the American Library Association's Choice publication A "how-to" practical reference that discusses the impact of the development of passive margins and cratonic basins on the structural evolution of the Earth in regional geology and tectonic applications. Incorporates the increased availability of industry data to present regional seismic lines and cross-sections, leading to more accurate analysis and assessment of targeted hydrocarbon systems Analyses of passive margins and cratonic basins in East Africa, China, Siberia, the Gulf of Suez, and the Laptev Sea in the Russian Arctic provide immediately implementable petroleum exploration applications Summaries of analogue and theoretical models are provided as an essential backdrop to the structure and stratigraphy of various geological settings.

Pathogens transmitted among humans, animals, or plants by insects and arthropod vectors have been responsible for significant morbidity and mortality throughout recorded history. Such vector-borne diseases â€" including malaria, dengue, yellow fever, and plague â€" together accounted for more human disease and death in the 17th through early 20th centuries than all other causes combined. Over the past three decades, previously controlled vector-borne diseases have resurged or reemerged in new geographic locations, and several newly identified pathogens and vectors have triggered disease outbreaks in plants and animals, including humans. Domestic and international capabilities to detect, identify, and effectively respond to vector-borne diseases are limited. Few vaccines have been developed against vector-borne pathogens. At the same time, drug resistance has developed in vector-borne pathogens while their vectors are increasingly resistant to insecticide controls. Furthermore, the ranks of scientists trained to conduct research in key fields including medical entomology, vector ecology, and tropical medicine have dwindled, threatening prospects for addressing vector-borne diseases now and in the future. In June 2007, as these circumstances became alarmingly apparent, the Forum on Microbial Threats hosted a workshop to explore the dynamic relationships among host, pathogen(s), vector(s), and ecosystems that characterize vector-borne diseases. Revisiting this topic in September 2014, the Forum organized a workshop to examine trends and patterns in the incidence and prevalence of vector-borne diseases in an increasingly interconnected and ecologically disturbed world, as well as recent developments to meet these dynamic threats. Participants examined the emergence and global movement of vector-borne diseases, research priorities for understanding their biology and ecology, and global preparedness for and progress toward their prevention, control, and mitigation. This report summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.

In the spirit of Pieter Sanders’s classic Quo Vadis Arbitration? (1999), this far-reaching overview of the state of international arbitration thoroughly assesses the current condition and prospects of arbitration and conciliation with practical, insightful solutions to the new and emerging problems confronting arbitration practice today. A distinguished group of internationally renowned arbitrators, academics, and lawmakers elucidate the ubiquitous evolution towards increased technical complexity, the need for multi-focal and multi-cultural approaches, and the tension between desirable simplicity and indispensable precision that have come to characterize current arbitral practice and procedure. Among the topics covered are the following: remote hearings; reliance on digital technology; cost of arbitration in a post-COVID world; extension of the arbitration agreement to non-signatories; tailoring of ADR techniques to suit the needs of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises; jurisdictions emerging as new arbitration hubs, e.g., Delaware, the Caribbean, Scotland; evolution of a code of conduct for adjudicators in investment disputes; and the reform of bilateral investment treaties. As Sanders’s 1999 book did at the time, the chapters identify specific improvements and refinements to the entire system as it has developed over recent decades. The book will be a go-to resource for the arbitration community worldwide as a stocktaking of current and ongoing trends in international arbitration. It will enthuse the many lawyers, judges, legislators, and businesspeople to whom it is addressed.
