Story
In The Butchering Art, the historian Lindsey Fitzharris reveals the shocking world of 19th-century surgery on the eve of profound transformation. She conjures up early operating theaters - no place for the squeamish - and surgeons, working before anesthesia, who were lauded for their speed and brute strength. They were baffled by the persistent infections that kept mortality rates stubbornly high. A young, melancholy Quaker surgeon named Joseph Lister would solve the deadly riddle and change the course of history.

The real stories behind the scenery of America’s national parks. For 12 years, Andrea Lankford lived in the biggest, most impressive national parks in the world, working a job she loved.

Wow! I learned so much!
Really I had no idea the huge impact the the problem. Every country in the world seems to have a problem and are in someway working to solve the problem. The animals like the polar bears and knowing that there’s going to be more plastic in the ocean than fish is mind-boggling. Mostly I appreciate knowing what I can do on a personal level to help the world situation. I highly recommend everybody taking in this knowledge and at least knowing the multitude of the situation. Knowledge is power!

Valuable Information - Must Read
This audiobook is very interesting. I appreciate how it explains the workings of our climate, scientific tipping points, and other qualifiers to help us assess the state of our current environment. The authors begin by level-setting the state of our present situation and how we got here. From there, the authors go into detail separating facts from myths. I appreciate the abundance of information this book provides. It’s presented in an easy-to-understand manner, and while I do have an understanding of global warming, I now understand in greater detail the scientific facts that support it. This is a very informative book that everyone needs to read. This is the perfect book to understand global warming better regardless of what resonates with your beliefs. Highly recommended!
