"In the haunting prologue, an Indian sachem vanquishes a sorcerer's evil spirit by ritualistically planting a cedar sapling over the grave where he was buried alive. Centuries later, the tree falls to man's hungry saws, and the Caliban is out of the bag. Stokes's voice takes on a hypnotic hush for the Indian legends".--The New York Times Book Review.

Download Tree Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
“Only God can make a tree,” wrote Joyce Kilmer in one of the most celebrated of poems. In Tree: A Life Story, authors David Suzuki and Wayne Grady extend that celebration in a “biography” of this extraordinary — and extraordinarily important — organism. A story that spans a millennium and includes a cast of millions but focuses on a single tree, a Douglas fir, Tree describes in poetic detail the organism’s modest origins that begin with a dramatic burst of millions of microscopic grains of pollen. The authors recount the amazing characteristics of the species, how they reproduce and how they receive from and offer nourishment to generations of other plants and animals. The tree’s pivotal role in making life possible for the creatures around it — including human beings — is lovingly explored. The richly detailed text and Robert Bateman’s original art pay tribute to this ubiquitous organism that is too often taken for granted.

Download The Final Forest Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
2011 Outstanding Title, University Press Books for Public and Secondary School Libraries Winner of the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Award Before Forks, a small town on Washington’s Olympic Peninsula, became famous as the location for Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight book series, it was the self-proclaimed “Logging Capital of the World” and ground zero in a regional conflict over the fate of old-growth forests. Since Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist William Dietrich first published The Final Forest in 1992, logging in Forks has given way to tourism, but even with its new fame, Forks is still a home to loggers and others who make their living from the surrounding forests. The new edition recounts how forest policy and practices have changed since the early 1990s and also tells us what has happened in Forks and where the actors who were so important to the timber wars are now.

Download His Majesty's Disease Is Not Light Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
In April in the human world, the spring wind is still cold, the first night it rains again, there is still water on the curved dome, the wind just blows the drops of water, and the eaves fall into the collar. Inside the communal house at Dong Cung, two figures, one purple and one red, sat on a cold stone bench, in the breeze, fighting the humidity together. The red sleeve of his shirt flew up in the wind, the four princes held a glass of jade wine and gently placed it on the table, stared at each other for a long time, before opening his mouth to say, "What are you thinking about?" The man was suddenly startled, turned his head slightly, smiled bitterly, and said in a cold voice, "It's just a trifle."

Download The Practice of Technology Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The Practice of Technology explores the narrative themes of modern industrial technology that reveal the underlying agenda of modern culture, which is to redesign the human and natural worlds to conform to the monoculture models of Western society that are embedded in industrial paradigms and practices. The author argues that ecological and social responsibility should be built into the design of new technology practices based on ecosophy (ecological wisdom) that enable us to harmonize with our specific place and ecological context. Root metaphors and mythologies of the West are examined so as to transcend the modern-postmodernist debate that devalues human life and the natural world. Drengson explains how our current problems, such as the environmental crisis, violence, social injustice, dehumanization, and alienation cannot be diagnosed, let alone cured, without understanding the role of technological forces and activities in modern civilization.
