Book Description
Coursing through the Atlantic Ocean is a powerful current with a force 300 times that of the mighty Amazon. Ulanski explores the fascinating science and history of this sea highway known as the Gulf Stream, a watery wilderness that stretches from the Caribbean to the North Atlantic. Spanning both distance and time, Ulanski's investigation reveals how the Gulf Stream affects and is affected by every living thing that encounters it--from tiny planktonic organisms to giant bluefin tuna, from ancient mariners to big-game anglers. He examines the scientific discovery of ocean circulation, the role of ocean currents in the settlement of the New World, and the biological life teeming in the stream.

Book Description
This work explores the meaning of imagery found on rocks, especially from deep caves of the paleolithic era. It approaches the problem of interpretation by focusing on a key concept, that art and ritual generate life. A novel hypothesis is also offered that creativity emerges from a tension between chaotic elements and more formed shapes. Past interpretive frames, statistical studies, and indigenous parallels are summoned to examine these archetypal expressions. We invite you to explore indigenous imagery as an adventure that opens up your own spiritual dimension and earliest roots.

Book Description
This work is a satire, interpreting current events from an atypical, what-if vantage. What if we take our goal to be hurling to our destruction? Why go slow and prolong the pain and suffering of collapsing structures and deteriorating surroundings? Things can be ended more quickly. This is a satirical guide to how to accomplish this, which hopefully calls into questions many commonly held attitudes and behavior.

Book Description
This work presents ten of the author's best photographs, which also show mystery. Either part or all of the photograph cannot be readily deciphered or explained.

Each photograph includes a reflection of how it came to be, and more immediate personal reflections. Then the reflection is extended into the cosmological, to see what the photograph tells us about the wider universe and our inner souls. Come, take this journey with the author, exploring beauty in the world and the nature of mystery itself.
