I WALKED UP BEHIND GOD AND STUCK A SIGN ON HIS BACK. IT SAID "FREE WILL," OR "KICK ME." The government is taxing your dreams and moments are being captured and held against their will. Murphy's Law is suspended pending the outcome of a constitutional challenge; a best-selling author writes and publishes the same novel fifteen times without anyone catching on, and all of humanity is put into receivership over a missing cup of coffee. Andrew J. Simpson's debut anthology is a highly creative journey through the world of the surreally real.

This volume focuses on the broad pattern of increasing biodiversity through time, and recurrent events of minor and major ecosphere reorganization. Intense scrutiny is devoted to the pattern of physical (including isotopic), sedimentary and biotic circumstances through the time intervals during which life crises occurred. These events affected terrestrial, lacustrine and estuarine ecosystems, locally and globally, but have affected continental shelf ecosystems and even deep ocean ecosystems. The pattern of these events is the backdrop against which modelling the pattern of future environmental change needs to be evaluated.
Language and Society is a broad introduction to the interaction of language and society, intended for undergraduate students majoring in any academic discipline. The book discusses the complex socio-political roles played by large, dominant languages around the world and how the growth of major national and official languages is threatening the continued existence of smaller, minority languages. As individuals adopt new ways of speaking, many languages are disappearing, others are evolving into hybrid languages with distinctive new forms, and even long-established languages are experiencing significant change, with young speakers creating novel expressions and innovative pronunciations.
