Natural Environment and Culture in the Mediterranean Region
The largest of the world's five Mediterranean-climate regions and one of the largest archipelagos in the world, the Mediterranean Basin is located at the intersection of two major landmasses, Eurasia and Africa, which contributes to its cultural and high biodiversity. Although much of the hotspot was once covered by a dense cover of forests, the Basin has experienced intensive human development and impact on its ecosystems for at least 8000 years, significantly longer than any other hotspot. The greatest impacts have been deforestation, habitat fragmentation, intensive grazing and fires, and infrastructure development, especially on the coast, which have distinctly altered the landscape.

Engineering Earth
This is the first book to examine the actual impact of physical and social engineering projects in more than fifty countries from a multidisciplinary perspective. The book brings together an international team of nearly two hundred authors from over two dozen different countries and more than a dozen different social, environmental, and engineering sciences. Together they document and illustrate with case studies, maps and photographs the scale and impacts of many megaprojects and the importance of studying these projects in historical, contemporary and postmodern perspectives. This pioneering book will stimulate interest in examining a variety of both social and physical engineering projects at local, regional, and global scales and from disciplinary and trans-disciplinary perspectives.
Contemporary Studies in Sciences
This book covers a range of scientific disciplines, from interdependence between low pH and heavy metal stress, to the genesis of the Maldives, and from the importance of globalization in Turkey’s environmental policies on water to Bluetooth-based robotic model platforms for agriculture. Also explored are the fields of architecture and landscape ecology and geography. Contributions in each chapter are prepared by experts in the field, and mirror the advances in their respective approaches. This book contains important recommendations for future tasks within each discipline, and supplies extensive bibliographies at the end of each chapter, as well as tables and figures that illustrate the research findings. The volume will attract the attention of researchers and local authorities and implementers, and will be of great interest to academics, teachers and students.
Narratives of Dependency
Given that strong asymmetrical dependencies have shaped human societies throughout history, this kind of social relation has also left its traces in many types of texts. Using written and oral narratives in attempts to reconstruct the history of asymmetrical dependency comes along with various methodological challenges, as the 15 articles in this interdisciplinary volume illustrate. They focus on a wide range of different (factual and fictional) text types, including inscriptions from Egyptian tombs, biblical stories, novels from antiquity, the Middle High German Rolandslied, Ottoman court records, captivity narratives, travelogues, the American gift book The Liberty Bell, and oral narratives by Caribbean Hindu women. Most of the texts discussed in this volume have so far received comparatively little attention in slavery and dependency studies. The volume thus also seeks to broaden the archive of texts that are deemed relevant in research on the histories of asymmetrical dependencies, bringing together perspectives from disciplines such as Egyptology, theology, literary studies, history, and anthropology
Contemporary Studies in Environment and Tourism
The tourism industry is striving hard to create attractive worlds for its customers. Both as a necessity and as a challenge, this field is overwhelmed by the imagination economy, but raises several questions about tourists, providing opportunities to move deeper into the understanding of complexities involved in relationships among tourists, tourism sites and their historical structure, and environmental sustainability. As a result of this, a serious academic interest in tourism has developed over recent decades as a complex aspect of investigation into humans and their environment. This volume brings together case studies from different parts of the world, focusing on tourism and its interactions with the environment. It provides a general outline of theoretical issues and their practicality in different industrialising countries from both the East and the West. The book will appeal to researchers involved in tourism studies and environmental interactions, as well as academicians and tourism agencies.

İYİ Kİ KADINIM
“Sevgili Açelya bu kitabıyla içeriden bir sesle bizi kadının fabrika ayarları ile tanıştırıyor. Tüm insanlar için güzel mesajlarını cömertçe serpiştirdiği bu güzel metin; kadın, erkek tüm okurlara kendini daha doğru tanıma için yeni yollar öneriyor.” Sinan Canan Cennet’te yasak elmayı yiyen ilk kişinin Havva olduğu ve Adem’i de Havva’nın elmayı yemesi için ikna ettiği söylenir durur. Cennetten kovulma sebebinin bile kadına bağlandığı bu cinsiyetçi yaklaşım ilk insandan günümüze maalesef ki devam etmektedir. Başarılı oyuncu ve sunucu Açelya Akkoyun, İyi Ki Kadınım isimli kitabıyla insanları bir yüzleşmeye davet ediyor. Kadınları yeren, kadınların potansiyellerini küçümseyen herkesin nasıl büyük bir yanılgının içerisinde olduğunu gözler önüne seriyor ve yüksek sesle sesleniyor: İyi ki kadınım!
