Non-Fiction

"Asphalt Nation: How the Automobile Took Over America and How We Can Take It Back"

"Asphalt Nation" is a major work of urban studies that examines how the automobile has ravaged America's cities and landscape, and how we can fight back. The automobile was once seen as a boon to American life, eradicating the pollution caused by horses and granting citizens new levels of freedom and mobility. But it was not long before the servant became the master — public spaces were designed to accommodate the automobile at the expense of the pedestrian, mass transportation was neglected, and the poor, unable to afford cars, saw their access to jobs and amenities worsen. In "Asphalt Nation," Jane Holtz Kay effectively calls for a revolution to reverse our automobile-dependency. Citing successful efforts in places from Portland, Maine, to Portland, Oregon, Kay shows us that radical change is not impossible by any means. She demonstrates that there are economic, political, architectural, and personal solutions that can steer us out of the mess. Paperback. University of California Press, 1998. ISBN 0-520-216120-2.

"Ginseng, the Divine Root: The Curious History of the Plant that Captivated the World"

The story behind ginseng is as remarkable as the root itself. Prized for its legendary curative powers, ginseng launched the rise to power of China's last great dynasty, triggered trade wars, and sparked a boom in Minnesota comparable to the California Gold Rush. It has made and broken the fortunes of many and has inspired a subculture in rural America unrivaled by any herb in the plant kingdom. Today, ginseng is at the very center of alternative medicine, and is being studied by medical researchers for the treatment of diabetes and Parkinson's disease, and is featured in the booming business of energy drinks. This book tracks the path of this fascinating plant from the forests east of the Mississippi to the bustling streets of Hong Kong and the remote corners of China. Author David A. Taylor becomes immersed in a world full of wheelers, dealers, diggers, and stealers, all with a common goal: to hunt down the elusive "Root of Life." Weaving together his intriguing adventures with ginseng's rich history, Taylor uncovers a story of international crime, ancient tradition, botany, herbal medicine, and the vagaries of human nature.

"Global Survival: The Challenge and Its Implications for Thinking and Acting"

"Global Survival" proposes a new academic discipline to be called "Survival Research." It was originally proposed by the eminent political scientist John H. Herz in 1988. Herz suggested: "Survival research must rise above the specific concerns, interests, and even expertise, of any particular discipline, such as political science. It must be interdisciplinary, requiring the cooperation of any and all the social sciences with other scientific disciplines, such as agronomists, climatologists, physicists, medical sciences, and so forth. ... It must mobilize experts in the various fields so as to make them recognize the superdisciplinary concerns of global survival to which priority must be given over and above the more parochial concerns of this or that national, economic, religious or similar grouping.“ Sixteen noted scholars from a wide variety of disciplines contribute chapters addressed to this topic.

"Grave Matters: A Journey Through the Modern Funeral Industry to a Natural Way of Burial"

"Grave Matters" follows a dozen families that found in "green" burial a more natural, more economic and ultimately more meaningful alternative to the tired and toxic send-off on offer at the local funeral parlor. Environmental journalist Mark Harris examines this new green burial underground, leading readers into natural cemeteries and domestic graveyards, taking them aboard boats from which ashes and memorial "reef balls" are cast into the sea. He reports on a family that conducts a home funeral and delivers a loved one to the crematory, another that hires a carpenter to build a pine coffin. By way of contrast, "Grave Matters" details the embalming process and the environmental aftermath of the standard funeral. How-to appendices included. Scribner, 2007. ISBN: 978-0-7432-7768-6.

"Inside the Dzanga-Sangha Rain Forest: Exploring the Heart of Central Africa"

Experiences while journeying through Central Africa's rain forest "from the working journals of the scientists, artists, and filmmakers on expedition for the American Museum of Natural History" are documented in this 127-page book. Twelve chapters cover a wide variety of information, including short biographies of the six participants, descriptions of the types of animal life indigenous to this habitat, and a discussion about setting up the exhibit for the museum. Not as fragmented in design as the "Eyewitness" series, information is segmented into journal writings, photographs with captions, and highlighted portions in the main text for added facts. Reading from the personal perspective is much more enjoyable than the encyclopedic style of other books of this genre. The book gives a feel for the dedication and time that scientists require to carry out fieldwork and the importance of various team member skills. The photographs, too numerous to count, are rich in detail and color. Some span an entire spread, while smaller ones are sprinkled throughout the pages. Compiled by Francesca Lyman. Reviewer: Tina Hudak. Workman Publishing Company, 1998. Ages 8 to 10. ISBN 076110870X. More information.

"The Malling of America" (CDs)

Everybody talks about the problems of exponential growth in the west — pollution, congestion, traffic — but talk about solutions and many Westerners give you a blank stare — or argue that you're messing with their private property rights. In the face of those blank stares, the two-part documentary "The Malling of America" tackles this issue.

• Part One: In "Across the Great Divide," Oregon-based producer Barbara Bernstein sets out on a road trip through the mountains and canyons of Colorado and Utah, looking for what's left of the West of open space and rugged wildlands. She meets an array of folks trying in their own ways to grapple with the changing west, including Will Toor, the environmentalist mayor of Boulder, Colorado; Del Le Fevre, the last working rancher in Boulder, Utah; Mark and Katie Austin, owners of the Boulder Mountain Lodge, who are trying to bring the New West to this remote corner of Southern Utah, where the road to town was paved less than fifteen years ago; Utah Division of Indian Affairs director Forrest Cuch; and Utah writer and naturalist Terry Tempest Williams.
• Part Two: "Can the Last Place Last?" returns to the West Coast to visit two places that have been living with strict land use planning regulations for twenty five years: Marin County in Northern California, and the state of Oregon. These experiments in planning for growth are contrasted with the hundreds of miles of sprawl that have swallowed farms and natural areas all along the Wasatch Front in Utah and the Front Range of Colorado. In the course of this journey, we come to understand the myriad of issues that are all part of the discussion of growth. What is a landscape's principal value: as an economic resource or as a source of natural habitat, beauty and spiritual connection? And how do we create livable communities that do not become exclusive enclaves for the wealthy?

"Mass Media and Environmental Conflict: America's Green Crusades"

News media coverage of conservation and public health controversy began long before the environmental movements of the 1960s. In "Mass Media and Environmental Conflict," authors Mark Neuzil and Bill Kovarik present a series of case studies describing interactions between the media and social groups in the late 19th and early to mid 20th century. Neuzil and Kovarik explore the role of books, magazines, newspaper articles, and other media and the ways they have created both regional and national communities of environmental understanding. Neuzil and Kovarik fold together early environmental groups, the mass media, the bureaucratic power structure, and the social system of each period, examining battles over public land, wild animals, clean air, and workplace hazards. The authors also describe controversies over America's national parks; species depletion and the evolution of hunting regulations; muckrakers and the great Alaskan land fraud; Hetch Hetchy and the first big dam controversy; the Ethyl gasoline debate; and the Radium Girls controversy.

"Monkey Dancing: A Father, Two Kids and a Journey to the Ends of the Earth"

After his wife of 15 years divorced him and moved out of state with her new girlfriend, followed by the death of his brother from breast cancer, Daniel Glick found himself raising two decidedly spirited children on his own. He opted to forge this new family of three by using adventure as their crucible, embarking on a five-month world tour with his 13-year old son and 9-year-old daughter to see some of the planet's most wondrous and environmentally endangered landscapes. From the python-infested rivers of Borneo to the jungles of Vietnam, from Nepal's Gangeatic Plains to Australia's Great Barrier Reef, Glick weaves accounts of the trio's encounters with the natural world into his intimate reflections on loss, change, and fatherhood, illuminating the connection between our relationship with each other and our relationship with the earth we inhabit.

"Path of Destruction: The Devastation of New Orleans and the Coming Age of Superstorms"

Katrina was the signal event of the new century, a body blow to the national self-image. Scenes Americans expect to see in far-off, ungovernable countries have now unfolded in the mightiest nation on earth: victims struggling to survive amid depravity and death, an entire city reduced to an empty shell, a diaspora of refugees unseen since the days of the Dust Bowl. Even as rebuilding gets underway, a sense of shock and confusion lingers. Indeed, sensationalism and political finger-pointing have made it nearly impossible to distinguish the truth from the spin. But now, John McQuaid and Mark Schleifstein cut through the confusion to offer a clear explanation for the greatest natural disaster in American history. "Path of Destruction" isn't just a book about the storm, those who survived, and those who didn't; it's also an account into the dreadful inadequacies that existed prior to 2005, an indictment of the Washingtonofficials who failed to act, and a scientific investigation into why these huge storms are coming now. Little, Brown and Company, 2006. ISBN 031601642X. More information.

 

 

"Powder Burn: Arson, Money and Mystery on Vail Mountain"

In the pre-dawn hours of October 19, 1998, a commando-style arson destroyed $12 million worth of chair lifts and mountaintop buildings at Vail, Colorado, the largest ski resort in the United States. Within days, an email arrived from a little-known radical environmental group known as the Earth Liberation Front, claiming credit for the arson. But the ELF's claim of credit was never substantiated, and the number of potential suspects grew in direct proportion to the number of enemies that the ski area's owners — Vail Resorts, Inc. — had made after they purchased Vail in 1996. "Powder Burn" examines the strange goings-on at the heart of the "New West" — a place where the traditional mining, grazing, and timbering economy shifted to include modem cowboy millionaires building "starter castles" and Wall Street companies strip-mining the Rockies' famous scenery. In "Powder Burn," Daniel Glick takes readers on a compelling and wild ride through this bizarre town full of bombastic characters to lay bare the growing pains of a breathtakingly beautiful region. Packed with odd characters and paranoia, with purple mountains and despicable actions, this is a book about crime, the environment, a small town, and an unsolved mystery. PublicAffairs, 2003. ISBN 1586481649. More information.

"Rivers That Were" (CDs)

"Rivers That Were" is a two-part documentary by Oregon-based, award-winning producer Barbara Bernstein. These two hours explore the long-term consequences of over a century of redesigning nature to suit commercial and industrial needs. The programs juxtapose the voices and viewpoints of Native Americans, barge operators, water engineers, environmentalists, policy makers and others who live and work in the watersheds of these two mythic Western rivers.

• Part One: "Working Water" compares two environmental crises. On the Colorado River Basin, it's the ongoing effort to restore the Salton Sea. On the Columbia, it's the confounding crisis of how to clean up one of the most toxic sites in the world, the Hanford Nuclear Reservation.
• Part Two: "Beaver Taught Salmon How To Jump" recreates the once natural and free-flowing tributaries and mainstem of the Columbia River, the Great River of the West. The river that was is contrasted with today's industrialized landscape of culverted urban creeks, hardened riverbanks and inundated waterfalls.

"Sacred Sea: A Journey to Lake Baikal"

Excerpted from the New York Times, Nov. 26, 2007: "Russians sing patriotic hymns about Lake Baikal, and with good reason. Their 'sacred sea' is the oldest lake on earth, as well as the deepest and the largest by volume... it could swallow Lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie and Ontario and still be thirsty. Journalist Peter Thomson knew next to nothing about Baikal before reading a seductive article in the National Geographic. Eight years later he quit his job as an environmental news producer for NPR and talked his brother into joining him on a round-the-world trip to a place where neither understood the language or the culture. The result is this superb paean to a unique and bizarre ecosystem. A laboratory of evolution, Lake Baikal is home to hundreds of plants and animals found nowhere else. Mr. Thomson investigates the biochemistry behind the myth that the lake's water purifies itself. (Russian scientists think the secret lies with a miniature shrimp that filters industrial pollutants, of which tons were introduced during Soviet rule.) Careful not to prescribe development scenarios from the comforts of America ("Baikal, Too, Must Work" is the title of the last section, on the economic history of the region), Mr. Thomson clearly favors low-impact tourism as the optimal model for the future. The lake's remoteness has so far preserved it from becoming Tahoe or Banff. "Bad roads are good for Baikal," says a local. Mr. Thomson is a trustworthy companion on these matters, but he has also written a compelling diary of personal discovery. Curiosity alone seems to have guided his footsteps. Wagering whim and risk over common sense was in this case the right move, for him and for us." Oxford University Press, 2007. ISBN 0195387333. More information. Voice clip (27 mins).

 

 

"Silent Snow: The Slow Poisoning Of The Arctic"

"Toward the Livable City"

"Toward the Livable City" gathers places and faces, i.e., names of writers who dwell and discuss the "attractions and distractions" of urban life — as the Milkweed Editions publishers describe their series. The writers of these diverse, illustrated essays go beyond the cosmetic that makes urban life a joy, insisting that "livability is more than skin deep," as editor Emilie Buchwald puts it, and "finding the common ground" within the writing of these unlike scribes. Safety, gridlock and walkability are among the qualities of citydwelling described, essay by essay, in the words of its diverse urban/enviro authors. The book begins with "The Lived-in City" as Jane Holtz Kay (SEJ member and author of "Asphalt Nation") calls it, exulting in The City Upon A Hill even as she describes the heartbreak and heroics of its daily life while Lynda Morgenroth takes the opposite track in "Divorcing the City." Essays range from the slightly academic to the familiar in pieces by such other well-known writers and essayists as Emily Hiestand, Philip Lopate, Tony Hiss and James Kunstler. Jay Waljasper even offers instructions in "How to Love Your Home Town," an activity that could be the salvation to save this sprawling, ravaged planet. Milkweed Editions, 2003. ISBN 1571312714. More information.
