| ixl rachel carson: Bad Call Stephen Wallenfels, 2016-10-04 It was supposed to be epic. During a late-night poker game, tennis teammates Colin, Ceo, Grahame, and Rhody make a pact to go on a camping trip in Yosemite National Park. And poker vows can't be broken. The first sign that they should ditch the plan is when Rhody backs out. The next is when Ceo replaces him with Ellie, a girl Grahame and Colin have never even heard of. And then there's the forest fire at their intended campsite. But instead of bailing, they decide to take the treacherous Snow Creek Falls Trail to the top of Yosemite Valley. From there, the bad decisions really pile up. A freak storm is threatening snow, their Craigslist tent is a piece of junk, and Grahame is pretty sure there's a bear on the prowl. On top of that, the guys have some serious baggage (and that's not including the ridiculously heavy ax that Grahame insisted on packing) and Ellie can't figure out what their deal is. And then one of them doesn't make it back to the tent. Desperate to survive while piecing together what happened, the remaining hikers must decide who to trust in this riveting, witty, and truly unforgettable psychological thriller that reveals how one small mistake can have chilling consequences. |

| ixl rachel carson: The Dose Makes the Poison M. Alice Ottoboni, 1997-05-15 The Dose Makes the Poison A Plain-Language Guide to Toxicology Second Edition M. Alice Ottoboni Increasing media coverage of reports on the effects of chemicals, new recognition within government and industry of the need to protect against exposure, and other current issues are elevating the public's concern about the health effects of synthetic chemicals in our environment. Unfortunately, much of this concern is based more on sensational news reports and half-truths than on scientific facts. This second edition of a widely read and highly acclaimed work reviews and explains the facts of chemical dangers in a clear and understandable manner. It objectively discusses the factors determining whether chemicals in our air, food, and water are harmful or harmless, and puts the dose - response relationship of chemicals in proper perspective. Effects of chemicals encountered at home and at work are presented in layman's language to assure understanding without having to turn to other references. Thoughtful discussions of controversial issues help you to understand news media reports on toxicology, avoid the half-truths that lead to poison paranoia, and make informed judgments about our use and control of chemicals. Extensively revised, the second edition is also reorganized to expedite access to specific information. All experimental and analytical methods are in one section, and references to the origins of toxicology and regulation of chemicals are in another separate section to improve ease of reading. In addition, coverage of subjects such as public distrust of science, epidemiology, reproductive toxicology, and risk have been expanded to provide a better understanding of the relationship of toxicology to current environmental problems. All aspects of exposure and its effects are reviewed, including * How chemicals cause harm--toxicity, sensitization, corrosiveness, irritation, radioactivity, and other properties * Routes of exposure--skin, inhalation, oral, and combinations * Factors that influence degree of toxicity--species, age, sex, nutrition, state of health, presence of other chemicals, adaptation, and possibly, light * Chemicals that cause cancer and birth defects Chapters on toxicity of chemicals address no-effect levels and thresholds, margins of safety, and bioaccumulation. You'll see how the effects of chemicals are studied and how health problems are traced to environmental causes. Also clarified are differences between actual risk and perceived risk of various chemicals. With the media presenting us daily with new findings on chemical risks, this book provides a welcome antidote to the confusion. The Dose Makes the Poison is an easy-to-read review of toxicology that has become required reading for scientists and managers throughout industry; public health officials; environmental scientists; industrial hygienists; hazardous waste workers ; and anyone who wishes to improve his or her understanding of toxic chemicals without taking the time to go back to school. |

| ixl rachel carson: How I Learned to Ride the Bicycle Frances Elizabeth Willard, 1991 Willard's name may not ring any bells now, but in the late 1800s she was famous for her pioneering social reforms. The introduction to this clever little book contains a lively synopsis of Willard's unusual life, from her tomboy childhood on the Wisconsin prairie to her years as the charismatic & influential head of the women's temperance movement. Willard admitted that her reforms 'tended more toward the liberation of women than toward the extinction of the saloon.' Originally published in 1895, Willard's pointed account of her learning to ride a bicycle at age 53 becomes a metaphor for life, encouraging women to learn to live more fully in the world. Willard praises the freedom bicycling brings, as well as the feeling of accomplishment. Rounded out with an essay on the history of women & bicycling, this delightful, uplifting, & unique bit of history is bound to attract both browsers & researchers.
