Deep Adaptation
‘Deep adaptation’ refers to the personal and collective changes that might help us to prepare for – and live with – a climate-influenced breakdown or collapse of our societies. It is a framework for responding to the terrifying realization of increasing disruption by committing ourselves to reducing suffering while saving more of society and the natural world. This is the first book to show how professionals across different sectors are beginning to incorporate the acceptance of likely or unfolding societal breakdown into their work and lives. They do not assume that our current economic, social and political systems can be made resilient in the face of climate change but, instead, they demonstrate the caring and creative ways that people are responding to the most difficult realization with which humanity may ever have to come to terms. Edited by the originator of the concept of deep adaptation, Jem Bendell, and a leading climate activist and strategist, Rupert Read, this book is the essential introduction to the concept, practice and emerging global movement of Deep Adaptation to climate chaos.

Народы России. ДНК-генеалогия. Детальное исследование 190 народов
Каждый народ имеет право знать свою историю – не по лекалам, порой навязанным политически ангажированными учеными, а по объективным данным. Такими являются результаты исследования автора книги – президента Академии ДНК-генеалогии, профессора Гарвардского и Московского государственного университетов и профессора АН СССР Анатолия Клёсова. Каждый народ рассматривается в этой книге как сплав родов, которые образовали историческое единство, и представлен в порядке своей численности в составе Российской Федерации. Автор исследует, как складывался во времени родовой состав, когда жили общие предки каждого рода в составе современного народа, откуда и когда они пришли на данную территорию, по возможности – какие археологические культуры были созданы предками этого народа.
