Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixty-five million years ago the Era of the Dinosaurs ended. Their extinction wasn't caused by their exploitation of natural resources. It wasn't caused because dinosaurs polluted the air with the gas of corn-fed cows or poisoned the water with nitrogen and phosphorous-rich poultry and hog effluent. They didn't plant crops in monocultures for economic gain, causing the loss of soil fertility and biodiversity. And they were certainly not aiding and abetting unsustainable food systems. No, they were hit by a rock. We all know that the sky is falling, Chicken Little. Our current agricultural models exploit natural resources and has led to an extinction crisis, a farm crisis, a food crisis, a health crisis, an economic crisis, a biodiversity crisis, and a pollution crisis—all of which ultimately culminates into one big human crisis. Our agricultural models aren't sustainable. A freight train is coming our way, and it's loaded with genetically modified corn, soy, and wheat. The question is, Can we slow this freight train or stop it altogether? In Eat Paleo—Save The World, Pendergrass outlines a paleo prescription for the planet. While researching standards for the eco-label Paleo Approved, she made some discoveries. By embracing various facets of the Paleolithic Era, people could not only drastically improve their health, but they could also help save the world.

Download or read book The Technical Image written by Horst Bredekamp and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of images has been critical to the pursuit of science for centuries. This book explores, within an art historical framework how to comprehend images not as illustrative representations, but as productive agents and distinctive multi-layered elements of the epistemic process. If scientific images play a constructive role in shaping the findings and insights they illustrate, the representation of an observation in images, however mechanical, however detached from the individual researcher s choices their appearance may be, likewise becomes an instance of the style of a period, a mindset, a research collective, and a device. The Technical Image emerges from an institute in Germany, which has married art and historical analysis of technical images, and serves as a methodological reference and inspiration for visual representation in the sciences. The work opens with a series of methodological chapters that introduce a set of questions about representations in sciences and medicine, and the core of the work consists of historical case studies around specific images that in turn illustrate themes ranging from "objectivity and evidence" to "digital images." Within these case studies are also definitions and elaborations of selected terms that have in recent years become key concepts in the analysis of scientific imagery."
Download or read book First Exposures written by Steffen Siegel and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exact date for the invention of photography is evasive. Scientists and amateurs alike were working on a variety of photographic processes for much of the early nineteenth century. Thus most historians refer to the year 1839 as the “first” year of photography, not because the sensational new medium was invented then, but because that is the year it was introduced to the world. After more than 175 years, and for the first time in English, First Exposures: Writings from the Beginning of Photography brings together more than 130 primary sources from that very year—1839—subdivided into ten chapters and accompanied by fifty-three images of significant visual and historical importance. This is an astonishing work of discovery, selection, and—thanks to Steffen Siegel’s introductory texts, notes, and afterword—elucidation. The range of material is impressive: not only all the chemical and technological details of the various processes but also contracts, speeches, correspondence of every kind, arguments, parodies, satires, eulogies, denunciations, journals, and even some poems. Revealing through firsthand accounts the competition, the rivalries, and the parallels among the various practitioners and theorists, this book provides an unprecedented way to understand how the early discourse around photographic techniques and processes transcended national boundaries and interconnected across Europe and the United States.

Download or read book Teresa Hubbard Alexander Birchler written by Teresa Hubbard and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teresa Hubbard and Alexander Birchler invent stories. And they create their photographic sequences as if they were putting together a film in which to tell these stories. Each sequence has a script, specially chosen actors, and purpose-built sets in which even the smallest details are attended to with great care. But each picture also contains a second narrative that asks questions about how a story arises, how it is constructed. The resulting uncertainties in Hubbard and Birchler's videos and photographs is methodical and deliberate, and persistently apparent in the range of works reproduced in Wild Walls, including two complete video works from 2001, "Detached Building" and "Eight."
