Download or read book Out of Sight written by Barbara Sanford Rahder and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2024-07-19 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was it like to be in the midst of the counterculture movement as a white teen girl with a critical eye? Out of Sight! is Barbara Sanford Rahder’s memoir, a coming-of-age story set in the iconic time and place of 1960s San Francisco. At sixteen, Barbara moved into her sister’s one-bedroom apartment in Haight-Ashbury and was quickly drawn into hippie life: dancing in the street, smoking pot, striking to expose racism in college, marching with thousands to protest the Vietnam war, joining a commune, living on a precarious houseboat. But there was a shadow side as well—sexism, racism, abuse, incarceration, and police brutality. Many of the changes of the era came with an underbelly of power, privilege, and violence that was hidden from view or forgotten. Out of Sight! weaves one young woman’s experience during a transformative time with unflinching observations on gender, race, and power. Sad, funny, painful, and always very real, Barbara’s story brings a new, critical perspective to the hippie era. And throughout it all ripples an undercurrent of disturbing family tensions. Things that are hidden “out of sight” are not easily confronted, but secrets have a way of surfacing.

Download or read book Agents and Implications of Landscape Pattern written by Dean L Urban and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-12 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an ecology textbook focused on key principles that underpin research and management at the landscape scale. It covers (1) agents of pattern (the physical template, biotic processes, and disturbance regimes); (2) scale and pattern (why scale matters, how to ‘scale’ with data, and inferences using landscape pattern metrics); and (3) implications of pattern (for metapopulations, communities and biodiversity, and ecosystem processes). The last two chapters address emerging issues: urban landscapes, and adapting to climate change. This book stems from two graduate-level courses in Landscape Ecology taught at the Nicholas School of the Environment at Duke University. The subject has evolved over time, from a concepts-based overview of what landscape ecology is, to a more applied practicum on how one does landscape ecology. As landscape ecology has matured as a discipline, its perspectives on spatial heterogeneity and scale have begun to permeate into a wide range of other fields including conservation biology, ecosystem management, and ecological restoration. Thus, this textbook will bring students from diverse backgrounds to a common level of understanding and will prepare them with the practical knowledge for a career in conservation and ecosystem management.
