Title: Nature in the Global South: Environmental Projects in South and Southeast Asia , Paul R. Greenough, Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing , New ISBN: 9780822331490 Publisher: Duke University Press Please note that cover may differ from the image displayed, as publishers update covers occasionally. A nuanced look at how nature has been culturally constructed in South and Southeast Asia, “Nature in the Global South” is a major contribution to understandings of the politics and ideologies of environmentalism and development in a postcolonial epoch. Among the many significant paradigms for understanding both the preservation and use of nature in these regions are biological classification, state forest management, tropical ecology, imperial water control, public health, and community-based conservation. Focusing on these and other ways that nature has been shaped and defined, this path-breaking collection of essays describes projects of exploitation, administration, science, and community protest. With contributors based in anthropology, ecology, sociology, history, and environmental and policy studies, “Nature in the Global South” features some of the most innovative and influential work being done in the social studies of nature. A number of essays look at how social and natural landscapes are created, maintained, and transformed by scientists, government administrators, monks, and farmers. Some essays analyze campaigns to eradicate smallpox and save forests, waterways, and animal habitats. In case studies centered in the Philippines, India, Thailand, Indonesia, and in South and Southeast Asia as a whole, contributors examine how the tropics, the jungle, tribes, and peasants are understood and transformed, how shifts in colonial ideas about the landscape led to extremely deleterious changes in rural well-being, and how uneasy environmental compromises are forged in the present among rural, urban, and global allies.

Title: Teaching the Trees: Lessons from the Forest (New edition) , Joan Maloof , New ISBN: 9780820329550 Publisher: University of Georgia Press Please note that cover may differ from the image displayed, as publishers update covers occasionally. In this collection of natural-history essays, biologist Joan Maloof embarks on a series of lively, fact-filled expeditions into forests of the eastern United States. Each engaging, conversational essay is a lesson in stewardship about the interwoven connections between a tree species and the animals and insects whose lives depend on it – and who, in turn, work to ensure the tree’s survival. Never really at home in a laboratory, Maloof took to the woods early in her career. Her enthusiasm for firsthand observation in the wild spills over into her writing, whether the subject is the composition of forest air, the eagle’s preference for nesting in loblolly pines, the growth rings of the bald cypress, or the gray squirrel’s fondness for weevil-infested acorns.

NOW! MAGAZINE THE VERY FIRST EDITION SEPT 14 – 20 1979 BRITISH NEWS MAGAZINE – VERY RARE The editorial introduces it as “the British news magazine – something quite new in British publishing.” That was a bold and questionable claim, but the magazine certainly launched with the backing of a large editorial team comprising an Editor-in-Chief, Managing Editor, two Associate Editors and four Assistant Editors, not to mention three regular columnists. The publishing company was Cavenham Communications Ltd, the publisher Sir James Goldsmith. The magazine provides an interesting snapshot of life in Britain and abroad, seen from a British perspective, at the end of the seventies, with vivid reminders not only thanks to its well written articles, but also its many adverts, including:- Citroen Reflex, Cigarette Adverts, Jaguar XJ Series 3, Talbot Sunbeam Lotus, the original Austin Mini Interesting points in history – “Iraq’s new President – Saddam Hussein”, Rhodesian Conference, President Sadat of Egypt, Premier Begin of Israel with President Carter, Seb Coe – running Condition: Very Fine Indeed. This magazine is in extremely good condition and was stored carefully. Apart from some very slight yellowing of the page edges, there is little to distinguish this copy from one picked straight from the newsagent. UK bidders, we accept payment by PayPal, personal cheque and postal order. Will send out Royal Mail Post, following clearance of payment. Be pleased to send worldwide – for specific postage rates outside UK, please contact me before bidding.
