Saviez-vous que les dinosaures vivaient partout sur la Terre, de l'Alaska à l'Antarctique ?

Every drop of oil is ancient sunlight. Three hundred million years of photosynthesis, burial, and geological patience, compressed into a black liquid that we extract in hours and burn in minutes. The ratio of nature’s patience to our haste is roughly one million to one.

In the first half of the 20th century, when seismology was still in in its infancy, renowned geologist Bailey Willis faced off with fellow high-profile scientist Robert T. Hill in a debate with life-or-death consequences for the millions of people migrating west. Their conflict centered on a consequential question: Is Southern California earthquake country? These entwined biographies of Hill and Willis offer a lively, accessible account of the ways that politics and financial interests influenced the development of earthquake science.

In its 2001 report on global climate, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change of the United Nations prominently featured the "Hockey Stick", a chart showing global temperature data over the past 1,000 years. The Hockey Stick demonstrated that temperature had risen with the increase in industrialization and use of fossil fuels. The inescapable conclusion was that worldwide human activity since the industrial age had raised CO2 levels, trapping greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and warming the planet.

Who were the first humans to inhabit North America? According to the now familiar story, mammal hunters entered the continent some 12,000 years ago via a land bridge that spanned the Bering Sea. The presence of these early New World people was established by distinctive stone tools belonging to the Clovis culture. But are the Clovis tools Asian in origin? Drawing from original archaeological analysis, paleoclimatic research, and genetic studies, noted archaeologists Dennis J. Stanford and Bruce A. Bradley challenge the old narrative.

The big media have spoken on the question of global warming, and the debate is officially over. "Be afraid, be very afraid", warns Time magazine. But have Al Gore and his environmentalist allies really proven their case? Not even close, says Christopher C. Horner.

They called the comet Cain, after the astronomer who discovered it. It passed 500,000 miles from Earth. We were spared planetary destruction and granted a light show like no other. But, one year later, Earth span into the debris field left by the comet and a meteor storm struck. Roads, buildings and even a small town were annihilated. It was the night of a mysterious double murder, the deed overshadowed by the discovery that the burning remains of the rock contained an unknown substance more precious than gold.

Una obra que evoca la emoción de la exploración científica a través de una prosa que huele a viento helado, madera y sal. En 1913 un navío zarpó de Alaska para cartografiar y descubrir el último de los continentes. En aquel barco viajarían científicos de todo tipo. Era la mayor...

Was wir erst heute wahrhaft begreifen: Weit mehr als Kriege und Technologien, Religionen und Ideologien beeinflussten und lenkten seit Anbeginn der Zeit die Natur und das Klima die Geschicke der Menschen.

Ein Buch, das unser Weltbild ins Wanken bringt. Ob bei Google Maps oder Apple: Täglich verlassen wir uns auf Karten. Aber wir denken selten darüber nach, wie umfangreich sie Einfluss auf unser Leben nehmen. Zum Beispiel durch die Mercator-Projektion aus dem 16. Jahrhundert, die bis heute die Dominanz des Westens unterstreicht, indem sie die Länder des Nordens größer erscheinen lässt. Oder durch Gerrymandering, die Grenzziehung von Bezirken, die den Ausgang von Wahlen beeinflusst.
