Exploring one of the greatest potential contributors to climate change—thawing permafrost—and the anxiety of extinction on an increasingly hostile planet
Climate scientists point to permafrost as a “ticking time bomb” for the planet, and from the Arctic, apocalyptic narratives proliferate on the devastating effects permafrost thaw poses to human survival. In Earth, Ice, Bone, Blood, Charlotte Wrigley considers how permafrost—and its disappearance—redefines extinction to be a lack of continuity, both material and social, and something that affects not only life on earth but nonlife, too.
Earth, Ice, Bone, Blood approaches the topic of thawing permafrost and the wild new economies and mitigation strategies forming in the far north through a study of the Sakha Republic, Russia’s largest region, and its capital city Yakutsk, which is the coldest city in the world and built on permafrost. Wrigley examines people who are creating commerce out of thawing permafrost, including scientists wishing to recreate the prehistoric “Mammoth steppe” ecosystem by eventually rewilding resurrected woolly mammoths, Indigenous people who forage the tundra for exposed mammoth bodies to sell their tusks, and government officials hoping to keep their city standing as the ground collapses under it. Warming begets thawing begets economic activity— and as a result, permafrost becomes discontinuous, both as land and as a social category, in ways that have implications for the entire planet. Discontinuity, Wrigley shows, eventually evolves into extinction.
Offering a new way of defining extinction through the concept of “discontinuity,” Earth, Ice, Bone, Blood presents a meditative and story-focused engagement with permafrost as more than just frozen ground.

First stop in the Stadium Adventure Series...Wrigley Field
Hawk and his brothers, Nestor and Michael, three adopted boys from diverse ethnic backgrounds, are obsessed with sports. However, not once have they ever had even a sniff of hot-roasted peanuts, heard the crisp crack of the bat or watched a gleaming white baseball disappear over an outfield wall while sitting in the stands of a major league stadium.
So, when their mom arranges for her rough-and-tumble boys from Port Clinton, Ohio to travel to see the cubs play on Opening Day at historic, Wrigley Field, it is a dream come true.
The plan is simple: Meet up with their eccentric, old Uncle Dave at the bus station in Chicago and go to the game.
But, somehow, the simple plan suddenly blows up, and the brothers' 'dream come true' transforms into their worst nightmare
The book is fun. It's educational. It's scary. And...it's a little bit magical. Plus, after more than 70 years, the truth of how the Curse of the Billy Goat was finally broken is at last revealed.
With every purchase of a book from the Stadium Adventure Series, a donation is made to the leading, national hunger non-profit to help the more than 16 million kids in the US who struggle with getting enough to eat each and every day.

Автор: Cook Kevin Название: Ten Innings at Wrigley: The Wildest Ballgame Ever, with Baseball on the Brink ISBN: 1618038524 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781618038524 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 32180.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: It was a Thursday at Chicago's Wrigley Field, mostly sunny with the wind blowing out. Nobody expected an afternoon game between the Philadelphia Phillies and Chicago Cubs on May 17, 1979, to be much more than a lazy early-season contest matching two teams heading in opposite directions-the first-place Phillies and the Cubs, those lovable losers-until they combined for thirteen runs in the first inning. The craziest game ever, one player called it. And then the second inning started. Ten Innings at Wrigley is Kevin Cook's vivid account of a game that could only have happened at this ballpark, in this era, with this colorful cast of heroes and heels: Hall of Famers Mike Schmidt and Bruce Sutter, surly slugger Dave Kingman, hustler Pete Rose, unlucky Bill Buckner, scarred Vietnam vet Garry Maddox, troubled relief pitcher Donnie Moore, clubhouse jester Tug McGraw, and two managers pulling out what was left of their hair. It was the highest-scoring ballgame in a century, and much more than that. Bringing to life the run-up and aftermath of a contest the New York Times called the wildest in modern history, Cook reveals the human stories behind the game-and how money, muscles and modern statistics were about to change baseball forever.
