- Description
- This is the story of a relationship Jahren forged with a brilliant, wounded man who becomes her lab partner and best friend. Their sometimes rogue adventures in science take them from the Midwest across the United States and back again, over the Atlantic to the ever-light skies of the North Pole and to tropical Hawaii, where she and her lab currently make their home. Jahren’s look at plants, her tenacity of spirit, and her acute insights on nature enliven every page of this extraordinary book. Lab Girl opens your eyes to the beautiful, sophisticated mechanisms within every leaf, blade of grass, and flower petal. This is a demonstration of what can happen when you find the passion and sense of sacrifice needed to make a life out of what you truly love, as you discover along the way the person you were meant to be.

- Description
- Rachel Carson, who was a nature and science writer, has been credited with founding the modern environmental movement. 'Silent Spring', published in 1962, provoked a public outcry against the dangers of indiscriminate pesticide use and chemical toxins in the environment. Exposing her enthusiasm for the natural world and the depth of her writings, the contributors to this book examine her books, speeches, essays, and the letters she wrote as she prepared to die from breastcancer. Themes in the book are: a legacy of activism and advocacy: ethics on land and sea: reflections on gender and science: an ongoing toxic discourse: and a legacy of wonder.

- Description
- This collection of largely unpublished case studies drawn from Latin America, Asia, Africa, Europe and North America aims to increase the understanding of the importance of women and gender relations in plant biodiversity management and conservation. It intends to provide a state-of-the-art overview of the concepts, relationships and contexts that help to explain the relatively hidden gender dimensions of people-plant relations. The volume covers the following broad areas: women, the domestic arena and plant conservation: gender relations, women's rights and plant management: gendered plant knowledge in science and society: plants, women's status and welfare: gender, biodiversity loss, and conservation.
