  • Apocalypse When?by Willard Wells

    Springer 2010; US$ 23.99

    This book will be a key trailblazer in a new and upcoming field.

  • Continuity and Change in Cultural Adaptation to Mountain Environmentsby Ludomir R. Lozny

    Springer 2012; US$ 99.99

    Up until now, mountain ecosystems have not been closely studies by social scientists as they do not offer a readily defined set of problems for human exploitation as, do for instance, tropical forests or arctic habitats. But the archaeological evidence had shown that humans have been living in this type of habitat for thousands of year.  From... more...

    In the last human generation we have learned that life existed on our earth for more than three billion years, yet man has done more to change the earth and its ability to support life in the last few centuries than preceding life forms have over hundreds of millions of years. And nearly all of these changes were brought about as unforeseen or unconsidered... more...
