The Privatization of Space Exploration
Space was at the center of America's imagination in the 1960s. President John F. Kennedy's visionary statement captured the mood of the day: "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard." The Apollo mission's success in July 1969 made almost anything seem possible, but the Cold War made space flight the province of governmental agencies in the United States. When the Apollo program ended in 1972, space lost its hold on the public interest, as the great achievements wound down.

Helping Grieving People
Helping Grieving People is a training manual for care providers who will provide support and counseling to those grieving death, illness, and other losses. The author addresses grief as it affects a variety of relationships and discusses different intervention and support strategies, always cognizant of individual and cultural differences in the expression and treatment of grief. Jeffreys has established a practical approach to preparing trainee caregivers through three basic tracks: Heart, Head and Hand. The first step, Heart, calls for self discovery, freeing oneself of accumulated loss in order to focus all attention on the griever. Head emphasizes understanding the complex and dynamic phenomena of human grief. Hand stresses the caregiver's actual intervention, and speaks to the appropriate level of skill as well as the various methods of healing available. Following these three motifs, the Handbook discusses the social and cultural contexts of grief as well as its psychological constructs.

From the author of The Geography of Nowhere, it is a book that “should be read, digested, and acted upon by every conscientious U.S. politician and citizen” (Michael Shuman, author of Going Local: Creating Self-Reliant Communities in a Global Age).

The Nuclear Economy
The earth is finite. Fossil fuels are not renewable. As these fuels run short in years and very short in decades, the global economic system will need to find an alternative source of energy or it will completely collapse. Equally disturbing, fossil fuel combustion produces carbon dioxidethe greenhouse gas attributed to climate change scientists are warning could lead to mass drought, famine and positive feedbacks that increase warming further. Could the entire world be facing the most catastrophic culmination of events in human history? As articulately explained in great detail in The Nuclear Economy, none of the purported solutions to the energy problem will workexcept one. If you are wondering why the entire global economy is screeching to a halt, why oil prices are extremely volatile, and why nothing seems to changethis book holds all the answers.
