Book Description
Harlan is a science nerd whose hobby is searching for aliens. When he discovers a tiny anomaly in public data available from SETI researchers looking for extraterrestrial life, he wants to know more. Harlan is puzzled because he knows whatever created the anomaly is not a satellite. He decides to investigate, despite being certain it is nothing. Using his telescope he is frustrated to find nothing more than a strange wobble he is unable to focus on. Dismissing it as nothing is too easy, and he grows certain something in earth orbit is generating the wobble and unusual SETI data. Deciding he needs help, he emails friends with details of what he found to get a reality check. But Harlan’s email and his interest in the oddity attracts attention. Arthur is the human resident of the flying saucer creating the anomaly and when the alien ship alerts him to Harlan’s email, he decides to approach Harlan for help. Secretive government agents are also monitoring the phenomenon while looking for Arthur. By watching for any mention of the anomaly they too learn of the email and they begin following Harlan everywhere. Struggling with sceptical friends and determined, mysterious government agents is bad enough, but Harlan soon realizes the real challenge is why Arthur needs Harlan’s help. With it comes the knowledge his life will never be the same.

The American Farmer in the Eighteenth Century
Author: Richard L. Bushman
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 030022673X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 391
Book Description
An illuminating study of America's agricultural society during the Colonial, Revolutionary, and Founding eras In the eighteenth century, three‑quarters of Americans made their living from farms. This authoritative history explores the lives, cultures, and societies of America's farmers from colonial times through the founding of the nation. Noted historian Richard Bushman explains how all farmers sought to provision themselves while still actively engaged in trade, making both subsistence and commerce vital to farm economies of all sizes. The book describes the tragic effects on the native population of farmers' efforts to provide farms for their children and examines how climate created the divide between the free North and the slave South. Bushman also traces midcentury rural violence back to the century's population explosion. An engaging work of historical scholarship, the book draws on a wealth of diaries, letters, and other writings--including the farm papers of Thomas Jefferson and George Washington--to open a window on the men, women, and children who worked the land in early America.

Food Production in Urban Areas
Author: Kwaku Obosu-Mensah
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429853335
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Published in 1999, this book explores the emergence of contemporary urban agriculture as well as official attitudes toward this practice. Using three theoretical models, the author tells us who is more likely to be involved in urban agriculture. In line with this, he explains why, contrary to expectations, in Ghana there are more males than females involved in urban agriculture. The author also addresses issues such as the influence of social inequality and the effects of social networks on urban agriculture. Furthermore, he identifies the problems urban cultivators encounter as city farmers and how they cope with such problems. Finally, the author predicts the future trend in urban agriculture. This thought-provoking book will be of interest not only to public policy makers and planners, but also to students and teachers of African studies, urban studies, and sociology.
