Living in a Nuclear World: From Fukushima to Hiroshima (History and Philosophy of Technoscience) by Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent (Routledge) Price verified one hour ago

The Fukushima disaster invites us to look back and probe how nuclear technology has shaped the world we live in, and how we have come to live with it. Since the first nuclear detonation (Trinity test) and the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, all in 1945, nuclear technology has profoundly affected world history and geopolitics, as well as our daily life and natural world. It has always been an instrument for national security, a marker of national sovereignty, a site of technological innovation and a promise of energy abundance. It has also introduced permanent pollution and the age of the Anthropocene. This volume presents a new perspective on nuclear history and politics by focusing on four interconnected themes-violence and survival; control and containment; normalizing through denial and presumptions; memories and futures-and exploring their relationships and consequences. It proposes an original reflection on nuclear technology from a long-term, comparative and transnational ...

Norse Mythology: Gods, Giants, and Giggles by Mya Dewitt (2 Reviews)    Price verified 7 minutes ago

Pick up your runes and embark on a fantastical adventure through the nine realms (no horned helmets required, but a hearty appetite for mead and mischief recommended) At first glance, the word "Norse" invokes feelings of adventure, of powerful gods and goddesses, of mystical beings and ruthless Vikings. Your mind takes you to the northern landscapes filled with windy grasslands, clusters of villages, serpentine rivers, horned helmets, and deep, bellowing chants. You imagine axe-wielding warriors, hammer-wielding gods, tricksters, giants, and the undead interlocked in a constant battle of good vs. evil and honor vs. betrayal. All set against the unforgiving, craggy fjords, blanketed in snow. However, there's more to the Norse people, their culture, and their mythology than Hollywood wants you to believe. While the everyday Norsemen and women were far different than Thor, Odin, Freya, or Idunn, these stories of the gods, elves, dwarves, and giants shaped and influenced every strand ...
