Then suddenly she (they) are in knee-deep in new case that brings the escaped Threefer Killers back onto the scene. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1736510 In this work, the author, a field biologist explains the rules by which ecosystems thrive, shining light on a set of ecological balancing acts that he calls green equilibria, rules which keep our world vibrant, verdant, and ecologically intact. To explain the idea of green equilibrium, he draws on a range of examples, including coral reefs off the densely populated Philippines, the isolated and thickly forested valleys of Papua New Guinea, the changing Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan, and a Californian ranch being allowed to return to a wild state. He travels to Guyanas rainforests and savannahs, for instance, to provide startling vignettes of ecological processes in action. Among other topics, he highlights the snake-head mimicry that swallowtail caterpillars use to scare off predators, the symbiotic relationship between the exceedingly rare Golden Poison-Dart Frog and the tank bromeliad plant, and the invisible world of pathogens and parasites that helps to drive diversity. All these mechanisms, and many more, maintain the green equilibria of Guyanas rainforest ecosystems. The author also shows how green equilibria have shaped the evolution and history of our own species. We now know that a kind of genetic green equilibrium helped populations adapt to changing environmental conditions as they spread out of Africa. Striking new evidence indicates that some modern human populations still carry genes from past hominids (such as the Neanderthals) as well as genetic adaptations to local hazards such as malaria. Traveling to many different ecosystems, from coral reefs to the high Himalayas, and drawing on his own on-the-ground research, the author illuminates ecological laws in action. Perhaps most important, he introduces us to people, in many countries around the world, who are now using this new knowledge to help heal the planet. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1732313 Provides clear, step-by-step instructions for tackling more than 140 iPad tasks.

J. Monroe had to be at the very top of her game. It was her job and her life to teach people how to defend themselves.

Former New York Times business reporter and mother Melanie Warner decided to explore that question when she observed the phenomenon of the indestructible cheese. She began an investigative journey that takes her to research labs, food science departments, and factories around the country. What she discovered provides a rare, eye-opening--and sometimes disturbing--account of what were really eating. Warner looks at how decades of food science have resulted in the cheapest, most abundant, most addictive, and most nutritionally devastating food in the world, and she uncovers startling evidence about the profound health implications of the packaged and fast foods that we eat on a daily basis.--Provided by publisher. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1687231 The Today show co-anchor shares the inspirational stories of six individuals who persevered and thrived in the face of devastating life challenges, from a woman who became a health advocate after losing 340 pounds to a civilian hero who saved a burn victim on September 11 only to discover that two family members died in the tragedy. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1704394 Discovering that the U.S. is being targeted by a secret and lethal conspiracy, disgraced television host Jack Hatfield taps the expertise of an idealistic staffer from the Office of Naval Intelligence to expose an imminent biochemical attack. http://www.phoenixpubliclibrary.org/record.jsp?R=1698244 Governess Abigail Chantry will do anything to save her sister and two dearest friends from destitution, even if it means breaking into an empty mansion in the hope of finding something to sell.
