Presidential Science Advisors: Perspectives and Reflections on Science, Policy and Politics
ISBN: 9789400790650 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 179 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. For the past 50 years a select group of scientists has provided advice to the US President, mostly out of the public eye, on issues ranging from the deployment of weapons to the launching of rockets to the moon to the use of stem cells to cure disease. The role of the presidential science adviser came under increasing scrutiny during the administration of George W. Bush, which was highly criticized by many for its use (and some say, misuse) of science. This edited volume includes, for the first time, the reflections of the presidential science advisers from Donald Hornig who served under...

Climate Vulnerability : Understanding and Addressing Threats to Essential Resources
ISBN: 9780123847034 / Angielski / Mixed media product / 2013 / 1570 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Climate change has been the subject of thousands of books and magazines, scientific journals, and newspaper articles daily. It's a subject that can be very political and emotional, often blurring the lines between fact and fiction. The vast majority of research, studies, projections and recommendations tend to focus on the human influence on climate change and global warming as the result of CO2 emissions, often to the exclusion of other threats that include population growth and the stress placed on energy sources due to emerging global affluence. Climate... Climate change has been the subject of thousands of books and magazines, scientific journals, and newspaper articles daily. It's a subject that can... |
