Supervolcano: The Catastrophic Event That Changed The Course Of Human History

Supervolcano: The Catastrophic Event That Changed The Course Of Human History

John M. Savino; Marie D. Jones

Independently Published

nidottu
REVISED AND UPDATED EDITIONApproximately 75,000 years ago, an event occurred that almost wiped out human life. According to a stunning new theory, this singular event may also have completely altered the genetic evolution of humankind. It was an event that released 3,000 times the energy of Mt. St. Helens.The new book, Supervolcano, explores this eruption of the Toba supervolcano in Sumatra, Indonesia, its far-reaching impact, and the strong possibility of another supervolcano eruption in our lifetime.Supervolcanoes are considered one of the five biggest threats to humankind, along with asteroids, nuclear war, disease, and global warming. But of those, supervolcanoes are the only threat that cannot be prevented.And their effects are catastrophic. So devastating was the Toba eruption and the sheer amount of ash it released into the atmosphere, it altered the global climate for years, creating a mini Ice Age that obliterated massive amounts of plant, animal, and human life. A new theory claims this earth-shattering event also caused a severe "population bottleneck" in humans, leading to the eventual extinction of all other branches of our species with the exception of one...the branch that survived Toba and became modern humans.Supervolcano will explore: -What supervolcanos are, where they are found, and why they are so deadly to life on earth.-Toba, the largest of the known supervolcanoes in the past 27 million years, and how its catastrophic environmental aftermath brought humanity to the brink of extinction.-How genetic, geological, and computer studies show that each human today is related to a survivor of Toba.-How we can prepare for the next supervolcano, which many earth scientists believe could be right here in our own backyard--Yellowstone National Park. And why they believe an eruption at Yellowstone could be as catastrophic for humanity as Toba.

Stockholm har alltid lockat till sig människor som bara stannat tillfälligt i staden. Många har kommit som turister, eller för att arbeta eller studera en begränsad period. Andra, inte minst i senare tid, har kommit till Stockholm som flyktingar, och för en del av dem blir huvudstaden första anhalten på en resa mot ett nytt hem. Tillfälliga stockholmare handlar om några av dessa människor. Tidsperspektivet sträcker sig från 1400-talet till i dag, och vi får möta alltifrån diplomater och identitetsbytare till internationella konferensdeltagare, gästarbetare och flyktingbarn. Den kortvariga vistelsen kan se ut på många olika sätt, men ett har de tillfälliga stockholmarna gemensamt. De har fått möta en ny stad och dess invånare. Hur har de uppfattat staden och hur har staden uppfattat och bemött dem? Frågorna är tidlösa men också brännande aktuella i vår tids globala och mångkulturella värld där människors rörlighet är större än någonsin förr.

Betrayal of Trust

Betrayal of Trust

Marcia M. Boumil; Joel Friedman

Praeger Publishers Inc
1995
sidottu
Sexual abuse of patients has received much press in recent years. More victims have come forward documenting their experiences with professionals who abuse fiduciary and confidential relationships by engaging the victim in sexual liaisons. The work is written by a lawyer and a psychologist to examine the ramifications of these problems, and should be of interest to a wide audience of professional and scholarly readers, particularly those in the helping professions, and to college students especially in Women's Studies Courses with a focus on women and violence themes.For generations, untold numbers of women suffered the silent horror of being sexually exploited by respected professional men whom society deemed above reproach. The frightened cries of these victims fell on deaf ears. Lately, the epidemic abuse of professional power for sexual favors has secured a prominent place in America's conscience. Victimized women are now empowered to speak out as society tries to understand how and why their pillars have fallen. In this thought-provoking book, women who have been coerced into sexual liaisons by lawyers, doctors, clergymen, educators, and other professionals reveal their experiences and the toll it took on their lives. Their recollections provide fresh insight into why some women are vulnerable to exploitation and what leads these men to risk their entire livelihoods to seduce their patient, client, or confidante. What ensues is an in-depth examination of a type of relationship that begins with trust, feeds on real or imagined attraction, and often ends in emotional ruin.In Betrayal of Trust, studying the actual relationship is only the beginning. Friedman and Boumil dig deeper to educate about exploitative situations. Readers will learn about early warning signs for recognizing when a professional relationship is crossing the dangerous boundary line between professionalism and sexual abuse. On the legal front, new laws and statutes concerning sexual exploitation and malpractice are considered along with the time, financial, and emotional ramifications of lawsuits and other legal recourse. Victims are taken step-by-step through the long psychological healing process that leads from anger, shame, and guilt to vindication, resolution, and recovery. Related issues such as mutual consent and the ethics of sexual relationships between a man and woman after termination of their professional relationship are also discussed. The book not only sheds light on the misuse of power in professional relationships. It performs a valuable public service by pinpointing potential targets of abuse and offering hope for the thousands of victims who need to know why it happened to them and how they can pick up the pieces.
