Otis H: Revive and Thrive

Revive and Thrive

The Art of Town Revitalization and Historical Preservation

The France Chicago Collection

Traces the early history of economic knowledge developed by thinkers between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. Starting with the sixteenth century, The Lost Forms of Economic Knowledge investigates the origins and prehistory of economic thought before the emergence of political economy as an autonomous discipline in the late eighteenth century. In this book, the celebrated French historian Arnaud Orain argues that these "lost forms" of economic knowledge represent an important alternative to our modern system of numerical abstraction and market manipulation. As Orain shows, older approaches to the economy defined it as a relationship between humans and their specific environment. These earlier mindsets sought to advance vernacular knowledge by turning to a variety of figures--naturalists, artisans, farmers, and merchants--to learn how to take advantage of the environment without depleting it. The goal of these inquiries was not to maximize profit but to determine how to allow humans to satisfy basic needs and live in harmony with nature. Now, at a time in which natural resources are fast depleting, Orain argues that we could do worse than consider the alternative approaches to "economics" that lie in our past, and that might still be available in the future.

On the Balance of Living Beings

The Lost Forms of Economic Knowledge

Beavers reshaped a Scottish landscape and public perception, transforming conservation into urgent, meaningful action. From the moment that these waters were given back their beavers, I knew that I would never wish to return to the time when they were without them . . .' In November 2021, in a major moment in Scotland's history, a family of beavers was spared a death sentence and relocated to a Perthshire farm. Their arrival at Argaty, Tom Bowser's home, paved the way for a new era in human-beaver relations. In this deeply personal account, Tom tells of his attempts to save these incredible animals, of the support and opposition received and of the unimaginable gains that beavers ultimately brought to his home. He also explores the wider themes of rewilding and nature conservation in Scotland, meeting some of the leading lights of this exciting movement, highlighting the work they do, the challenges they face and showing why ecological restoration is so important for the future of our planet.

'It takes a special aptitude to love living things. This was Aya Koda's talent' Asako Yuzuki, bestselling author of Butter 'A whimsical masterpiece of acute observations ... a gem' Literary ReviewAn immersive journey through trees in Japan by celebrated writer Aya Koda - now available in English for the first time'Trees are not just living things, but feeling beings, like us. Better keep a watchful eye over them...'Ezo spruce, hinoki, cherry blossoms. Persimmon, maple, cypress. The trees of Japan cast a spell on those who visit its landscape. But as a child, writer Aya Koda realized they were more than objects of beauty. Gifted a sapling by her father, she learned that we depend on trees as much as they do on us - and spent a lifetime trying to understand them.Mesmerising and poignant, Tree is written in a Japanese genre called zuihitsu which means 'following the brush'. Here we follow Aya Koda on a journey to discover Japan's most remarkable trees. As she witnesses landslides and forests of falling ash, she encounters fresh saplings and ancient, ungovernable roots, learning how each tree contains its own unique story.Now translated into English for the first time, Koda's work echoes down the generations, reminding us that trees hold a mirror to who we are, and what we leave behind.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER&nbsp;• The author of Finding the Mother Tree offers a powerful vision for saving our forests based on nature’s deep-rooted cycles of renewal. "A masterclass on the inner workings of forests. . . . This is science as an act of love for the world.” —Zoë Schlanger, author of The Light Eaters Early one spring morning, I went back to the forest. I wanted to learn what the mother trees could teach me about survival and adaptability, about living and dying. Raised in a family of loggers committed to sensible forest stewardship, trailblazing ecologist Suzanne Simard has watched as timber companies leave forests at higher risk for wildfires,&nbsp;water crises, and plant and animal extinction. But her research has the potential to chart a new course. The forest, she reveals, is a symphony of finely honed cycles of regeneration—from mushrooms breaking down logs to dying elder trees passing their genetic knowledge to younger ones—that hold the key to protecting our forests. Working closely with local Indigenous communities, whose models of responsible forestry have been largely dismissed, Simard examines how human interventions—particularly destruction of the overstory's mother trees—endanger new growth and longevity. If we can honor the tools that trees have honed for sharing intergenerational wisdom, she argues, we can protect these sacred places for many years to come. As she considers how older living things facilitate the conditions for new growth to flourish, Simard faces parallel rhythms of loss and regeneration in her own life, watching her two daughters grow into adults and savoring her final days with her ailing mother. Animated by wonder for our forests and the intricate practices of caretaking that have long sustained them, When the Forest Breathes is a vital reminder of all the natural world has to teach us about adaptability, resilience, and community.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING A BBC WILDLIFE BEST BOOK OF 2025 'Magical ... No journey in Britain will be quite the same again.' The Guardian Birds have long inspired our emotional and imaginative connections to physical environments, but where did it all begin? Hidden in the names of English towns and villages, in copses, fields, lanes and hills, are the ghostly traces of birds conjuring powerful identities for people in ancient landscapes. What are their stories and secrets? How did people encounter birds over a thousand years ago? In The Cuckoo's Lea, Michael J. Warren sets out on the trail of these ghosts. Captivated and guided by the secrets of place names, he finds their stories entangled with his own explorations of places through birds all across England. The past is hauntingly and movingly present on timeless marshes where curlews cry, where goshawks are breeding again for the first time in centuries, through silent cuckoo-woods lost under concrete sprawl, in the winter roosts of corvids and an owl village that vanished centuries ago. Weaving together early literature, history and ornithology, this book takes readers on a journey far into the past to contemplate the nature of place and to discover a fascinating heritage that matters deeply to us now when so many places and their birds are threatened or already gone.

The Forgotten History of Birds and Place – SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING

The Cuckoo's Lea

An inspirational guide to discussing and fighting climate change for millennial and GenZ voters that cuts through the usual myths and scare tactics to provide practical advice. Will Hackman is a Millennial, and he is pissed. Two wars, two global economic catastrophes, and a pandemic combined with a ballooning cost-of-living crisis and crushing student loan debt can do that to a person, but this is just reality now. All generations have their struggle. But there's one thing that compounds these challenges that is unequaled at any other time in human history: ticking time bomb of fossil fuel emissions. With that bomb detonating already, Millennials and Gen-Zers will be left to deal with the worst of the climate change fallout well after those responsible have passed away. And we have never been more divided. In Radically Reframing Climate Change: A Guide to Saving Ourselves, Will Hackman identifies three main obstacles to solving climate change: polarization, paralysis, and stale, ineffective messaging. He empowers readers to turn their anxiety or apathy into passion, and anger into action at the personal, community, and government levels. The decades-old climate rallying cries to "Save the Planet" no longer work in our hyper-partisan world, and images of polar bears or melting glaciers is not going to change opinions. The problem of solving climate change isn't scientific, fact-based, or even technological. It's political, emotional, and ideological. Hackman provides a path forward for engagement and voter mobilization that combats apathy, dread, and resentment, and builds greater issue identification. Hackman reframes the climate crisis as a humanity crisis, arguing that we must change how we think and talk about climate change, both in our conversations with non-believers and among those who care, particularly regarding solutions. Assuring humanity's place on a warming, changing planet will require a near universal level of public support we will never reach if we keep making the same mistakes. We know how to do this and we can do it again. But the stakes have never been higher and time is running out.

A Guide to Saving Ourselves

Radically Reframing Climate Change

Shortlisted for The Wainwright Prize for Conservation Writing 2026 Around the world, birds have been struggling to survive. But the tide is turning. This is a story about optimism. 'A joyful, life-affirming celebration of recovery. We need to hear about these miracles. We need to know we can do it, if we try!' - Isabella Tree, bestselling author of Wilding 'A welcome relief . . . good news stories that rise above the encircling doom' - Literary Review 'Fascinating . . . a reminder of what is being done to save the world's birds - and by doing so, save us' - Stephen Moss, naturalist and bestselling author of Ten Birds That Changed the World Across the world, scientists, conservationists and ordinary people are involved in groundbreaking work to restore billions of lost birds. Together they're tackling the hollowing out of the springtime dawn chorus and the withering away of once-great migration multitudes. From a tiny island off the coast of Maine to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, and from a hereditary estate in England to a watery wilderness in Romania where Ukrainian air-raid sirens scream at night, birds' fortunes are being reversed. In The Return of the Oystercatcher, renowned natural history writer and New York Times bestselling author Scott Weidensaul tells the uplifting story of that success and what it means for us and for our planet, too. Because a world that works for birds, in all their complexity of movement and ecological need, will work for everything else. Including people. Illustrated with 16 pages of colour photographs and maps

The Return of the Oystercatcher

Routledge Environment and Sustainability Handbooks

This book illustrates the ways in which today's environmental anthropologists are constructing new paradigms for understanding the multiplicity of players, pressures, and ecologies in every environment, as well as the value of cultural knowledge of landscapes.This handbook provides a comprehensive survey of contemporary topics in environmental anthropology and thorough discussions on the current state and prospective future of the field in seven key sections. As the contributions to this handbook demonstrate, the subfield of environmental anthropology is responding to cultural adaptations and responses to environmental changes in multiple and complex ways. As a discipline concerned primarily with human-environment interaction, environmental anthropologists recognize that we are now working within a pressure cooker of rapid environmental damage that is forcing behavioral and often cultural changes around the world. As we see in the breadth of topics presented in this volume, these environmental challenges have inspired renewed foci on traditional topics such as food procurement, ethnobiology, and spiritual ecology, as well as a broad new range of subjects such as resilience, nonhuman rights, architectural anthropology, industrialism, and education. The second edition includes greater coverage of topics that have grown increasingly pertinent not only to the field of environmental anthropology but also to peoples, places, and species around the world since the publication of the original volume. To this end, the new edition includes chapters illustrating the role of environmental anthropologists in the struggle for environmental justice and elucidating instances of environmental racism, climate change, the effects of the global pandemic, and much more.This comprehensive, holistically oriented second edition is an ideal resource not only to inform students and scholars about the history and challenges of environmental anthropology today, but also to prepare them to apply the anthropological skill set to address challenges of justice, health, conservation, and wellbeing in a climate-changed world.

* Winner of the National Outdoor Book Award in Outdoor Literature * Winner of the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction * Named a Best Book of the Year by The New York Times, Air Mail, Smithsonian Magazine, and Financial Times “A triumph. Fedarko doesn’t describe awe; he induces it.” —The New York Times Book Review “Passionate…memorable…life-affirming.” —The Wall Street Journal This New York Times bestseller from the author of The Emerald Mile is a rollicking and poignant account of an epic 750-mile odyssey, on foot, through the heart of the Grand Canyon. Two friends, zero preparation, one dream. A few years after quitting his job to pursue an ill-advised dream of becoming a whitewater guide on the Colorado River, Kevin Fedarko was approached by his best friend, National Geographic photographer Pete McBride, with a vision as bold as it was harebrained. Together, they would embark on an end-to-end traverse of the Grand Canyon—a journey that, McBride promised, would be “a walk in the park.” Against his better judgment, Fedarko agreed, unaware that the small cluster of experts who had actually completed the crossing billed it as “the toughest hike in the world.” The ensuing ordeal, which lasted more than a year, revealed a place that was deeper, richer, and far more complex than anything the two men had imagined—and came within a hair’s breadth of killing them both. They struggled to make their way through the all-but impenetrable reaches of the canyon’s truest wilderness, a vertical labyrinth of thousand-foot cliffs and crumbling ledges where water is measured out by the teaspoon and every step is fraught with peril—and where, even today, there is still no trail spanning the length of the country’s best-known and most iconic landmark. Along the way, veteran long-distance hikers ushered them into secret pockets of enchantment, invisible to the millions of tourists gathered on the rim, that only a handful of humans have ever seen. Members of the canyon’s eleven Native American tribes brought them face-to-face with layers of history that forced them to reconsider myths at the very center of our national parks—and exposed them to the threats of commercial tourism. Even Fedarko’s dying father, who had first pointed him toward the chasm more than forty years earlier but had never set foot there himself, opened him to a new way of seeing the landscape. And always, there was the great gorge itself: austere and unforgiving, yet suffused with magic, drenched in wonder, and redeemed by its own transcendent beauty. A singular portrait of a sublime place, A Walk in the Park is a deeply moving plea for the preservation of America’s greatest natural treasure.
