Book Description
Kenny always knew he was different. Brown as richest cocoa, his coloring was not like those of all the other koala bears. But, it never really bothered him. His sweet nature caused the other koalas to cease their teasing and actually be drawn to him. His eyes were black as coals yet with a warmth that was welcoming. Kenny really didn't have any enemies in Crystal Creek. And that is why it was such a shock to the gentle folk who lived there when Kenny went missing. Thus begins the tale of Kenny the Koala Bear in the Land of Mean. Join this sweet, yet wise bear on an adventure unlike any other together with a cast of characters designed to delight, entertain and impart some deep truths in a whimsical romp. You will become well acquainted with Greedy Gertie, a woman obsessed with money and appearance; her husband, Pugnacious Pomposity, III, a snob of the highest order and their two children, Horatio the Horrible and Salena the Shrieker. In striking contrast, is Hannah Stillwaters, an adventurous follower of the King together with Rick the Red-Necked Ranger, her uncle, a watchman in the Pine Valley Forest. Interwoven in the mix is Puss Puss B' Guss Guss, a persnickety feline, and Bubba Doo Wah Wah, a playful, yet mission minded, golden retriever, both of whom are vital players in this fanciful tale. Join in the adventure with them and more colorful characters as the story unfolds and the battle begins between the Kingdom of Light and the Kingdom of Darkness. This is truly a unique story that mixes fancy with fact and is sure to keep you in suspense and delight unto the very end."

History of the Australian Vegetation
Author: Robert S. Hill
Publisher: University of Adelaide Press
ISBN: 1925261476
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 445
Book Description
The Australian vegetation is the end result of a remarkable history of climate change, latitudinal change, continental isolation, soil evolution, interaction with an evolving fauna, fire and most recently human impact. This book presents a detailed synopsis of the critical events that led to the evolution of the unique Australian flora and the wide variety of vegetational types contained within it. The first part of the book details the past continental relationships of Australia, its palaeoclimate, fauna and the evolution of its landforms since the rise to dominance of the angiosperms at the beginning of the Cretaceous period. A detailed summary of the palaeobotanical record is then presented. The palynological record gives an overview of the vegetation and the distribution of important taxa within it, while the complementary macrofossil record is used to trace the evolution of critical taxa. This book will interest graduate students and researchers interested in the evolution of the flora of this fascinating continent.

Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity
Author: Tema Milstein
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351068822
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 572
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity brings the ecological turn to sociocultural understandings of self. The editors introduce a broad, insightful assembly of original theory and research on planetary positionalities in flux in the Anthropocene – or what in this Handbook cultural ecologist David Abram presciently renames the Humilocene, a new “epoch of humility.” Forty international authors craft a kaleidoscopic lens, focusing on the following key interdisciplinary inquiries: Part I illuminates identity as always ecocultural, expanding dominant understandings of who we are and how our ways of identifying engender earthly outcomes. Part II examines ways ecocultural identities are fostered and how difference and spaces of interaction can be sources of environmental conviviality. Part III illustrates consequential ways the media sphere informs, challenges, and amplifies particular ecocultural identities. Part IV delves into the constitutive power of ecocultural identities and illuminates ways ecological forces shape the political sphere. Part V demonstrates multiple and unspooling ways in which ecocultural identities can evolve and transform to recall ways forward to reciprocal surviving and thriving. The Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity provides an essential resource for scholars, teachers, students, protectors, and practitioners interested in ecological and sociocultural regeneration. The Routledge Handbook of Ecocultural Identity has been awarded the 2020 Book Award from the National Communication Association's (USA) Environmental Communication Division.
