Описание:

The city is a watershed. Every street leads down. Just start walking, sooner or later youll end up down by the river.


Valley of Fools is the story of a rebellious young man, Emerson, who comes of age in a home for depressed morons and crazy bastards. At age 24, he suddenly finds himself out in the streets with nothing but his principles, a bad attitude, and a suitcase full of underwear and cigarettes.


Through a series of unfortunate coincidences, Emerson is caught in the media spotlight, the central figure of a political scandal involving the storage of nuclear waste on the greatest river in the nation, and an election campaign focused on providing dental health care for the homeless population of the city.


Among the bums, madmen, and visionaries of the Brewery Street Community, Emerson learns about truth, pride, and the cost of living, where its damn hard enough without watching somebody else not even try.

Описание: Water is one of the most valuable resources on this Earth. Without it, people could not survive. However, we all too often use it like some unlimited resource that will never end. Emerging pressure on water resources from population and economic growth, climate change, pollution, and other challenges has major effects on our social, economic, and environmental safety. Many of our utmost significant aquifers are being over-pumped, affecting pervasive declines in groundwater levels. Sustainable Water Technologies addresses water resources management, sustainability of water resources, ground and surface water quality and quantity, water use and reuse, surface and ground water interaction, aquifer recharge, storage and more. Furthermore, emphasises emerging nanotechnology, biotechnology, and information technology applications as well as sustainable processes and products to protect the environment and human health, save water and energy, and minimise material use. This book intends to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to focus on development of advanced technologies; a critical component in overcoming the looming water crisis. It lays emphasis on emerging technologies and strategies that facilitate water sustainability for future generations. The scope of sustainable management of water resources concerns the responsibility of water managers and users to ensure that water resources are allocated efficiently and equitably and used to achieve socially, environmentally and economically beneficial outcomes. Future policies to address the sustainable management of water resources will be greatly influenced by climate change and climate variability, including seasonality problems, such as changes in the timing of annual rainfall patterns or periods of snow pack melt. Recognition of the complexity and diversity of water resource management is important from a policy perspective, as it means there is no one-size-fits-all policy solution to improving water resource management. Policies addressing water resource management need to be tailored and targeted to situations specific to countries and regions within countries. This reflects the great variety across different water basins from the local to international levels in terms of the: heterogeneity of water sources; linkages between water resource and water pollution issues; allocation of water between consumptive uses, such as agriculture, domestic, industrial, power generation, and to meet environmental needs; and the management of the complex institutional and property right arrangements associated with water. New technologies are promising to transform wastewater into a resource for energy generation and a source of drinking water.

Описание: Chronic pollution is permanent pollution produced either by repeated or continuous emissions of pollutants, or the presence of determined pollutants. Today, we all acknowledge the significance of pollutants in the air or in water contributing to poor health. Measures of air quality are often reported along with our daily weather, and the impacts of a lack of access to safe drinking water, or of industry discharging pollution into rivers and lakes, are well documented. In many cases, clear links have been drawn between the types and levels of specific contaminants in the air or water, and their health effects. The impacts of pollution on human health must therefore be assessed both for indoor and the broader outdoor environment. Since the industrial revolution of the 19th century, health hazards associated to release of toxic chemicals and heavy metals from manufacturing plants has also become a more serious health issue. However, until recently, the effects of soil pollution on our health have had a much lower profile. Soil contaminants may be responsible for health effects costing millions of dollars, but studies to quantify the true cost are in their infancy. Health problems from cancers (arsenic, asbestos, dioxins), to neurological damage and lower IQ (lead, arsenic), kidney disease (lead, mercury, cadmium), and skeletal and bone diseases (lead, fluoride, cadmium) are serious issues. Crisis Management of Chronic Pollution gathers all the works that have been carried out over the last decade or more and links them to decision makers actions and stakeholders scenarios. This text bridges a gap in the literature on chronic pollution. The intention of the text is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to focus on development of advanced technologies is a critical component in overcoming the chronic pollution. It highlights emerging technologies and strategies that facilitate safe environment for future generations. Soil pollution occurs when soil contains chemicals that are toxic or otherwise dangerous for humans and other living things. The chemicals may be foreign to the area, or they may be naturally occurring materials that pollute the soil by being present in dangerously high amounts. Soil pollution can have a number of harmful effects on human health. The harmful effects of soil pollution may come from direct contact with polluted soil or from contact with other resources, such as water, that have come in direct contact with the polluted soil. Heavy metals and persistent organic chemicals are of particular concern. Human activity introduces heavy metals (such as cadmium, arsenic and mercury) to our soils through mining, smelting, industry, agriculture and burning fossil fuels. Our disposal of materials containing heavy metals, such as paint, electronic waste, and sewage also contributes to the burden of heavy metal contamination.

Описание: Soil is the thin skin covering the land; clean water is becoming more valuable every day. As global populations grow, and as demand for food increases in a world with a fixed water supply, there are efforts under way to learn how to produce more food with less water, through improvements in irrigation methods and technologies, agricultural water management, crop types, and water monitoring. Todays major challenges for water engineers and managers include securing water for people and for food production: protecting vital ecosystems: and dealing with variability and uncertainty of water in space and time. In the field of soil and water engineering, modelling aspects have added a new dimension in research innovations in all branches of engineering. They are increasingly used for planning, development, and management of land and water resources, including analysis of quantity and quality parameters of surface and ground water, flood forecasting and control measures, optimum allocation and utilisation of irrigation water. Soil and Water Engineering focuses on the soil/water interface and how to manage it for maximum productivity within the environmental requirements of long-term sustainability and overall ecosystem health. It offers a balanced approach, which covers both the engineering and management aspects of water resource development. It also addresses methods for controlling water to avoid water-related damage and catastrophes. This book will be of comprehensive guide for students, researchers and practitioners, and professionals in water resources engineering generally to learn the latest technological advancements and changes.

Описание: Trace elements occur naturally in soils and some are essential nutrients for plant growth as well as human and animal health. However, at elevated levels, all trace elements become potentially toxic. Anthropogenic input of trace elements into the natural environment therefore poses a range of ecological and health problems. In environmental sciences, the development of monitoring systems is of main importance. Increasingly strict environmental regulations require the development of new methods for analysis and ask for simple and meaningful tools to obtain information on metal fractions of different mobility and bioavailability in the solid phases. The objectives of monitoring are to assess pollution effects on humans and the environment, to identify possible sources, and to establish relationships between pollutant concentrations and health effects or environmental changes. Fifteen or more elements present in rocks and soils normally in very small amounts are essential for plant and/or animal nutrition. By the nature of their low abundance in natural uncontaminated earth materials or plants, they are known as trace elements, minor elements or micronutrients. Boron, copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, silicon, vanadium and zinc are required by plants; copper, cobalt, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium and zinc by animals. Thus, it is necessary to investigate and understand the transport mechanisms of trace elements and their complexes to understand their chemical cycles in nature. The book analyses the state-of-the-art research in the field, providing a inclusive outline of the chemistry, analysis, fate and regulation of trace elements in soils, in addition to remediation strategies for contaminated soil. This book brings the current knowledge concerning trace elements in temporary waterlogged soils and sediments together. It deliberates factors controlling the dynamics and release kinetics of trace elements and their underlying biogeochemical processes. It also discusses current technologies for remediating sites contaminated with trace metals, and the role of bioavailability in risk assessment and regulatory decision making. It will be a valuable tool for professionals around the world in disciplines related to contaminant bioavailability in aquatic organisms, contaminant fate and transport, remediation technologies, and risk assessment of aquatic and wetland ecosystems.

Описание: In this groundbreaking book, Jessica Martell investigates the relationship between industrial food and the emergence of literary modernisms in Britain and Ireland. By the early twentieth century, the industrialization of the British Empire's food system had rendered many traditional farming operations, and attendant agrarian ways of life, obsolete. Weaving insights from modernist studies, food studies, and ecocriticism, Farm to Form contends that industrial food made nature "modernist," a term used as literary scholars understand it stylistically disorienting, unfamiliar, and artificial but also exhilarating, excessive, and above all, new. Martell draws in part upon archives in the United Kingdom but also presents imperial foodways as an extended rehearsal for the current era of industrial food supremacy. She analyzes how pastoral mode, anachronism, fragmentation, and polyvocal narration reflect the power of the literary arts to reckon with, and to resist, the new "modernist ecologies" of the twentieth century.Deeply informed by Martell's extensive knowledge of modern British, Irish, American, and World Literatures, this progressive work positions modernism as central to the study of narratives of resistance against social and environmental degradation. Analyzed works include those of Thomas Hardy, E. M. Forster, Virginia Woolf, Joseph Conrad, George Russell, and James Joyce.In light of climate change, fossil fuel supremacy, nutritional dearth, and other pressing food issues, modernist texts bring to life an era of crisis and anxiety similar to our own. In doing so, Martell summons the past as a way to employ the modernist term of "defamiliarizing" the present so that entrenched perceptions can be challenged. Our current food regime is both new and constantly evolving with the first industrial food trades. Studying earlier cultural responses to them invites us to return to persistent problems with new insights and renewed passion.

Описание:

'As far as I am concerned, Aunt Violet, I don't want another penny of your money. I can go out and earn my bread' and she saw a distinct picture of herself working her fingers to the bone and being seduced by goodness knows whom.

Obsessed with money and class and all the appearances of a sophisticated life, but coming herself from genteel poverty, Cathie Martell rarely loses her focus on getting what she wants, regardless of the feelings or happiness of those who get in her way. Her Aunt Violet, for example, who finances her education, or her first husband, or the man she's set her sights on to be her second (not to mention that man's current wife).

Elizabeth Eliot's third novel, first published in 1953, follows an utterly self-absorbed, superficial woman from her teens to her second marriage. But if that sounds unsavoury, you clearly haven't encountered Eliot's giddy prose, as packed with clever insights and a sharp eye for detail as it is with humour. This new edition includes an introduction by Elizabeth Crawford.

Furrowed Middlebrow and Dean Street Press have also reprinted three of Eliot's other long-neglected novels--Alice, Henry, and Cecil--in their first new editions for more than half a century.

"Malicious, alarmingly observant and continually amusing" Sunday Times

"There are sad patches in this book because wickedness is a sad business, but also enchantingly funny ones. Lady Elizabeth's writing is light and witty as ever--delicious conversation pieces again--and her judgment of people is always penetrating and often tolerant" Time and Tide

"Written with a humour that is adult without being cynical and from an outlook that is observant without being critical" The Sphere
