Book Description
This book is your ultimate guide to harnessing the power of rainwater for your homestead. Imagine that just two weeks from now, you’re watching rain cascade off your roof into a system that sustains your home and garden, freeing you from the grip of municipal water supplies. Imagine how proud you'll be when your neighbors look at your lush gardens, which are doing well even in the dry months because you've learned so much from this book. Once you get your hands on this book, this can become your reality. For over a decade, the author has lived off-grid and has mastered the craft of rainwater harvesting. He has distilled his knowledge into a guide that addresses the common struggles of every homesteader, gardener, and eco-conscious citizen. In this book, you will discover: • A detailed look into the origins of rainwater harvesting and why experts say it hasn’t yet reached its peak • The different uses for harvested rainwater that go beyond simply watering your garden (though that is a great use by itself!) • Stories of rwh from around the world to get you excited and inspired • The 8 principles of rainwater harvesting and how they align with other sustainability practices • A look at earthworks and landforms and how to use them in your rainwater harvesting • The legalities of rwh so you don’t break any laws in this new journey Rainwater harvesting has been taken for granted in our modern homes and industries, doing away with the fact that the earth temperature is constantly changing, and pandemics can deny access to water. Leaving us with a little chance to depend on few resources. Building a rainwater harvesting system is the best backup for your home, garden, and livestock. This serves as a back up when your tap runs dry, most especially in this upcoming economic climate.

Book Description
Leonardo Da Vinci's Elements of the Science of Man describes how Da Vinci integrates his mechanical observations and experiments in mechanics into underlying principles. This book is composed of 17 chapters that highlight the principles underlying Da Vinci's research in anatomical studies. Considerable chapters deal with Leonardo's scientific methods and the mathematics of his pyramidal law, as well as his observations on the human and animal movements. Other chapters describe the artist's anatomical approach to the mechanism of the human body, specifically the physiology of vision, voice, music, senses, soul, and the nervous system. The remaining chapters examine the mechanism of the bones, joints, respiration, heart, digestion, and urinary and reproductive systems.

Book Description
The concept of “environmental security” has emerged as one basis for understanding international conflicts. This phrase can mean a variety of things. It can signify security issues stemming from environmental concerns or conflicting needs, or it can mean that the environment is treated as a resource for the long term, and the question is what should be done today to preserve the quality of the environment in the future. In the same way that energy security is about ensuring access to energy for the long run, it can also mean that pressing environmental concerns create a situation where different countries and communities are forced to collaboratively design a unified response, even if cooperation is not generally in the logic of their relations. Over the last several years, the authors of this book and their colleagues have tried to demonstrate the power of risk assessment and decision analysis as valuable tools that decision makers should use for a broad range of environmental problems, including environmental security. Risk analysis is almost more a state of mind or a way of looking at problems than it is a kind of algorithm or a set of recipes. It projects a kind of rationality on problems and forces a certain degree of quantitative rigor, as opposed to the all too common tendency of making environmental recommendations based on anecdotal evidence.

Book Description
"The book is a history of the political and environmental transformation of the Indus basin as a result of the modern construction of the world's largest, integrated irrigation system. Begun under British colonial rule in the 19th century, this transformation continued after the region was divided between two new states, India and Pakistan, in 1947. Massive irrigation works have turned an arid region into one of dense agricultural population, but its political legacies continue to shape the politics and statecraft of the region"--Provided by publisher.
