    Content: Geology is everywhere in our daily lives. We are surrounded by materials and resources extracted from the Earth, our climate is changing at alarming rates, and hazards due to Earth’s processes are leading to major catastrophes. We will be reliant upon a population of informed citizens to make and vote for policies that protect our Earth, and change that will keep our planet habitable. Therefore, understanding our Earth has never been more important. Understanding Earth leads the way by fully integrating the study of climate science into the core intro geology curriculum. Through strategic placement of the climate science chapters at the beginning of the geomorphology content, we offer a text that places our changing climate as a key force shaping the rest of our discussion on Earth’s surficial processes. Understanding Earth is now supported by Achieve Read & Practice, the most affordable digital solution in the market. It’s easy to use and streamlined, with just the ebook and adaptive quizzing engine LearningCurve, which prepares students with core foundational concepts so they arrive prepared for class. Instructors receive performance analytics to identify class strengths, areas for improvement, and competencies.

    Uniform Title: The friend
    Content: New York Times-Bestseller und Gewinner des National Book Award Eine Frau, die um ihren Freund trauert, ein riesiger Hund – und die berührende Geschichte ihres gemeinsamen Wegs zurück ins Leben. Als die Ich-Erzählerin, eine in New York City lebende Schriftstellerin, ihren besten Freund verliert, bekommt sie überraschend dessen Hund vermacht. Apollo ist eine riesige Dogge, die achtzig Kilo wiegt. Ihr Apartment ist eigentlich viel zu klein für ihn, außerdem sind Hunde in ihrem Mietshaus nicht erlaubt. Aber irgendwie kann sie nicht Nein sagen und nimmt Apollo bei sich auf, der wie sie in tiefer Trauer ist. Stück für Stück finden die beiden gemeinsam zurück ins Leben. Ein Roman über Liebe, Freundschaft und die Kraft des Erzählens -- und die tröstliche Verbindung zwischen Mensch und Hund. »Auf fast jeder Seite wollte ich mir mehrere Sätze anstreichen, bis ich es irgendwann gelassen habe, man kann ja nicht ein ganzes Buch anstreichen. Es handelt von Freundschaft, Trauer und Schreiben, könnte nicht knapper und eleganter formuliert sein.« Johanna Adorján »Mit "Der Freund" ist Sigrid Nunez über Nacht berühmt geworden als Titanin der amerikanischen Gegenwartsliteratur.« The New York Times » Eine der schwindelerregend genialsten Autorinnen überhaupt.« Gary Shteyngart »Nunez‘ Art zu schreiben hat etwas Erhebendes, ihr direkter und entschiedener Stil, die Musikalität in ihren Sätzen und ihre lebenskluge Intelligenz sind beglückend.« The New York Times Book Review

    Content: "Niemand spricht über das Gnadenjahr. Es ist verboten." In Garner County heißt es, dass junge Frauen die Macht besitzen, Ehemänner aus ihren Betten zu locken und Jungen in den Wahnsinn zu treiben.

Nur in ihren Träumen ist Tierney James frei, umgeben von Rebellinnen. Doch als ihr Gnadenjahr beginnt, spürt sie erst, wie tief verwurzelt der Hass ist. Denn nicht die Natur oder die tödlichen Wilderer, die ihnen auflauern, sind die größte Gefahr. Es sind die Mädchen selbst. Der sofortige New York Times Bestseller! Absolut fesselnd! TRIBUTE VON PANEM trifft auf THE HANDMAID'S TALE. Filmrechte bereits an Universal vergeben - mit Elizabeth Banks als Regisseurin!

    Content: "From New York Times bestselling author and economics columnist Robert Frank, a revelatory look at the power and potential of social context. As psychologists have long understood, social environments profoundly shape our behavior, sometimes for the better, but often for the worse. Less widely noted is that social influence is a two-way street: Our environments are in large part themselves a product of the choices we make. Society embraces regulations that limit physical harm to others, as when smoking restrictions are defended as protecting bystanders from secondhand smoke. But we have been slower to endorse parallel steps that discourage harmful social environments, as when regulators fail to note that the far greater harm caused when someone becomes a smoker is to make others more likely to smoke. In Under the Influence, Robert Frank attributes this regulatory asymmetry to the laudable belief that individuals should accept responsibility for their own behavior. Yet that belief, he argues, is fully compatible with public policies that encourage supportive social environments. Most parents hope, for example, that their children won't grow up to become smokers, bullies, tax cheats, sexual predators, or problem drinkers. But each of these hopes is less likely to be realized whenever such behaviors become more common. Such injuries are hard to measure, Frank acknowledges, but that's no reason for policymakers to ignore them. The good news is that a variety of simple policy measures could foster more supportive social environments without ushering in the dreaded nanny state or demanding painful sacrifices from anyone."

    Content: In July 2008, illustrator and designer Christopher Niemann began Abstract City, a visual blog for the New York Times. His posts were inspired by the desire to recreate for his readers simple and relatable observations and stories from his own life. In Niemann's hands everyday experiences such as trying to get a good night's sleep, or dealing with appliance cables were transformed into delightful flights of visual fancy. The struggle to keep up with the housework became a battle against adorable but crafty goblins and baking for Christmas offered the opportunity to re-imagine how the universe was created. This book collects all sixteen original posts and also includes a new, exclusively created, chapter.

    Uniform Title: Hannah Ryggen
    Content: A groundbreaking study of a remarkable artist, described by the New York Times as `a figure ahead of her time'.0The significance of Hannah Ryggen (1894-1970) as one of the most important figures in the history of Scandinavian art has only recently been recognized internationally. Beloved and renowned for her original contributions to modernist tapestry, Ryggen made radical political statements against Fascism and Nazism before and during the Second World War. Using primary sources, Ryggen expert Marit Paasche brings us a much fuller knowledge of the artist, weaving her life and work into a story that illuminates not only the artist herself, but also 20th-century art history in general. Hannah Ryggen's visually spellbinding tapestries, made on a homemade handloom in her small farm on the remote Norwegian coast, depict a wealth of subjects: Mussolini's Abyssinian campaign, her husband's internment in a Nazi camp in occupied Norway, the post-war growth of nuclear power, and media coverage of the Vietnam War. At once hard-hitting and humorous, her works combine personal candour, social and political engagement and visual majesty. Paasche explores both the artist's bold subject matter and particular balance of abstraction and figuration within the context of her life and beliefs. Including a comprehensive selection of works, this book provides an enthralling account of a remarkable, and unjustly overlooked, artist

    Note: Texte in deutscher und englischer Sprache , In diesem Band erforscht die Fotografin Christine Fenzl die Lebensbedingungen von Jugendlichen in den Berliner Bezirken Hellersdorf, Hohenschönhausen, Lichtenberg und Marzahn - Stadtviertel, die vor der Wende zum Osten gehörten und in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten starken sozialen und urbanen Veränderungen ausgesetzt waren. Während die Mauer den Lebensraum ihrer Eltern stark geprägt hat, ist dies für die nach dem Mauerfall geborene Generation nicht mehr vorstellbar. In sensiblen Aufnahmen spürt Christine Fenzl den Geschichten, Erwartungen und der Auseinandersetzung der Jugendlichen mit dem heutigen Berlin nach. Mit Jugendlichen und den Bedingungen ihres sozialen Umfelds hat sich Christine Fenzl bereits in anderen Serien beschäftigt, beispielsweise dem Projekt striking chance - streetfootball, für das sie Fußball spielende Kinder in Nairobi, Skopje, London und den Favelas von S̃ao Paulo besucht hat. CHRISTINE FENZL (*1967, München) besuchte die Münchner Fotoschule und lebte zwei Jahre in New York. Ihre Fotografien wurden u.a. in Der Spiegel, Die Zeit, Stern, The New York Sunday Times veröffentlicht und werden international ausgestellt. Seit 1992 lebt sie in Berlin. "Einerseits sensibilisieren ihre Porträts jugendlichen Lebens im Ostberlin der Gegenwart für das individuell Diverse der biographischen Reaktionen auf DDR-Geschichte und zeigen die Widersprüche und Vielfältigkeiten der Landschaften, womit in besonderer Weise jede verallgemeinernde und stereotypisierende Redeweise mit Blick auf ganze Gruppen dementiert ist. Andererseits - so ging es mir als unzulässig typisiertem "Westdeutschen" bei der Lektüre - schafft die Fotografin einen Identifikationsraum, der - jenseits der geschichtlichen Besonderheiten und Bezüge - das Phänomen des Aufwachsens in all seinen Widrigkeiten in den Blick nimmt, unabhängig von der Folie des ostdeutschen Lebensraums; die gezeigten Persönlichkeiten sind also nicht gänzlich Andere, sondern haben etwas mit meiner Sozialisationsgeschichte und den Erinnerungen daran zu tun. Auch im ästhetischen Sinne stellt das Werk Fenzls damit eine unschätzbare Erweiterung vieler bestehender Beobachtungen zu diesem Themenkomplex dar und wartet sicherlich noch auf viele weitere Erklärungs- und Deutungsversuche" (literaturkritik.de)

    Content: "This book offers an overarching view of the underlying challenges that the energy transitions pose to interstate energy relations. Geopolitics of energy currently epitomizes one of the principal sources for geopolitical vicissitudes affecting global energy landscapes. The ever-changing global energy architecture, global decarbonization plans and low-carbon technology developments are having deep geopolitical consequences. The extensive and rapid adjustment towards low-carbon energy is unsettling the conventional transnational energy structures, affecting economies and altering energy interstate relations. The geopolitics of the energy transitions is a field in the making, hence the existent academic literature is scarce and limited in scope. Current debates on decarbonization tend to mimic the geopolitics of oil and gas when discussing the stakeholders involved in the energy transitions. Besides, energy transitions tend to be studied at the national level overlooking the interactions at regional and global scales. Most research on the geopolitics of the energy transitions to date has mainly focused on the path to achieve the transitions to low carbon energy systems, and less on the global dynamics and the impacts of those transitions to inter-state relations and energy security. The fundamental question that needs dwelling is: How, and to what extent, will the multiple dimensions of the ongoing energy transitions affect existing fundamental geopolitical issues, and what new dynamics may result from the decarbonization process of the planet? The reasons to organize this publication are many, but among them stand one, which is functioning as the driving force behind this project: to contribute to a broader discussion on the ways in which energy transitions and geopolitics intersect"--
