What are the consequences of the planet's waning capacity to cool? In other words, what comes after ice? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This collection examines the implications of the end of consistent freezing and thawing cycles. \u003ci\u003eAfter Ice \u003c\/i\u003egathers experts in a wide range of disciplines to articulate aspects of the cold humanities. They investigate ice and its dynamic properties as a foundational element of Indigenous communities in the Arctic regions, as a commodity with technological and political value, and as a reflection of environmental change and the passage of time. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As the future of the cryosphere is increasingly determined by human behavior, this thought-provoking exploration envisions ice as both a phase of water and as a milieu for sensemaking. It asks us to consider how to define, describe, and materially characterize our warming world.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRafico Ruiz\u003c\/b\u003e is currently associate director of research at the Canadian Centre for Architecture. \u003cb\u003ePaula Schönach\u003c\/b\u003e is a senior advisor in sustainability at the Aalto University School of Business and director of the CLIMATE-research program of the Strategic Research Council, both in Finland. \u003cb\u003eRob Shields\u003c\/b\u003e is the Henry Marshall Tory Research Chair and professor of human geography and sociology at the University of Alberta.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 280\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.87 x 9.06 x 6.06 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 04, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47342944420089,"sku":"9780774869362","price":178.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/L4tG2K8VD79780774869362.webp?v=1769714511","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/after-ice-cold-humanities-for-a-warming-planet-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
