Geology and Geomorphology of Alluvial and Fluvial Fans
Alluvial and fluvial fans are the most widespread depositional landform bordering the margins of highland regions and actively subsiding continental basins, across a broad spectrum of tectonic and climatic settings. They are significant to the local morphodynamics of mountain regions and also to the evolution of sediment-routing systems, affecting the propagation and preservation of stratigraphic signals of environmental change over vast areas. The volume presents case studies discussing the geology and geomorphology of alluvial and fluvial fans from both active systems and ancient ones preserved in the stratigraphic record. It brings together case studies from a range of continents, climatic and tectonic settings, some introducing innovative monitoring and analysis techniques, and it provides an overview of current debates in the field. This volume will be of particular interest to geologists, geomorphologists, sedimentologists and the general reader with an interest in Earth science.
The Age of Resilience
A sweeping new interpretation of the history of civilization and a transformative vision of how our species will thrive on an unpredictable Earth. The viruses keep coming, the climate is warming, and the Earth is rewilding. Our human family has no playbook to address the mayhem unfolding around us. If there is a change to reckon with, argues the renowned economic and social theorist Jeremy Rifkin, it’s that we are beginning to realize that the human race never had dominion over the Earth and that nature is far more formidable than we thought, while our species seems much smaller and less significant in the bigger picture of life on Earth, undermining our long-cherished worldview. The Age o...
L'età della resilienza
I virus prendono il sopravvento, il clima si riscalda e la Terra si sta rinaturalizzando. Abbiamo a lungo pensato di poter costringere il mondo naturale a adattarsi alla nostra specie e ora siamo costretti a adattarci noi a un mondo naturale imprevedibile. Questo mette in discussione la concezione del mondo a cui siamo da tempo affezionati. E, di fronte al caos che si sta dispiegando intorno a noi, ci ritroviamo senza una valida strategia. Il noto teorico dell'economia e della società Jeremy Rifkin ci invita quindi a un radicale ripensamento della concezione del tempo e dello spazio. Perché, come osserva in questo libro, l'Età del Progresso, un tempo considerata sacrosanta, è ormai al tr...
회복력 시대
세계적인 미래학자 리프킨이 말하는 문명사의 대전환 "진보의 시대에서 회복력 시대로, 역사의 중심축이 이동한다" 위기의 인류를 위한 문명의 새로운 키워드 '회복력' 바이러스가 계속 출현하고 기후는 따뜻해지고 있으며 지구는 야생으로 돌아가는 중이다. 우리 인간 종은 경제, 사회, 생태계에서 벌어지는 다면적인 위기에 대책이 없는 상태다. 이제 우리는 삶의 모든 측면을 재고해야 한다. "효율성에서 적응성으로, 금융자본에서 생태자본으로, 생산성에서 재생성으로 성장에서 번영으로, 소유권에서 접근권으로, 세계화에서 세방화로"
Das Zeitalter der Resilienz
Die Geschichte der Menschheit und die Zukunft unserer Spezies auf der Erde - beides zusammen muss ganz neu gedacht werden. Der Ökonom und Bestsellerautor Jeremy Rifkin zeigt, wie die Inbesitznahme der Erde und das industrielle Effizienzdenken alle Lebensbereiche durchdrungen und uns an den Rand des ökologischen Untergangs geführt haben. Nur ein radikaler Wandel unseres Selbstbildes kann uns noch retten. Neue wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse stellen dem Homo oeconomicus einen Menschen entgegen, der sich als Ökosystem begreift, sich an seine Umwelt anpasst und widerstandsfähig wird, statt die Natur auszubeuten. Rifkin liefert die übergreifende Erzählung für den politischen, wirtschaftlichen und kulturellen globalen Weg vom Zeitalter des Fortschritts zum Zeitalter der Resilienz. »Jeremy Rifkin schlägt vor, dass wir die Natur als unser Klassenzimmer betrachten und es wagen, jeden Aspekt unserer Existenz neu zu überdenken, damit das Leben auf der Erde wieder aufblühen kann. Ein Dialog, der längst überfällig ist.« Jane Goodall »Brillant – Mit ›Das Zeitalter der Resilienz‹ beweist Rifkin erneut, dass er einer der großen Vordenker unserer Zeit ist.« Sigmar Gabriel
Multiple Myeloma
Multiple myeloma is the second most prevalent hematological malignancy, with over 55,000 new cases diagnosed each year. This exciting new text, edited by lauded authorities on the topic, stands as the only available reference to assemble, review, and synthesizes the latest studies on translational therapies and clearly explains the impact of molecular pathogenesis, biology, and prognostic factors on the diagnosis, prognosis, and individualization of treatment and the development of novel therapeutic options for patients with myeloma.
