DOWNLOAD EBOOKSaving More Than Seeds advances understandings of seed-people relations, with particular focus on seed saving. The practice of reusing and exchanging seeds provides foundation for food production and allows humans and seed to adapt together in dynamic socionatural conditions. But the practice and its practitioners are easily taken for granted, even as they are threatened by neoliberalisation. Combining original ethnographic research with investigation of an evolving corporate seed order, this book reveals seed saving not only as it occurs in fields and gardens but also as it associates with genebanking, genetic engineering, intellectual property rights, and agrifood regulations. Drawing on diverse social sciences literatures, Phillips illustrates ongoing practices of thinking, feeling, and acting with seeds, raising questions about what seed-people relations should accomplish and how different ways of relating might be pursued to change collective futures.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTHEY THOUGHT THEY WERE SAFE, BUT THAT WAS A LIE ... Hollis Palmer thought that stopping the aliens from blowing up Austin and rescuing Mia would leave him free to live his life in peace – at least as much peace as could be expected from a world suddenly overrun with aliens. But the aliens have other plans. All around him, Hollis is finding people whose brains have been zapped by the invaders, and now they are little more than zombies. The whole thing seems to be centered on the nearly ubiquitous Astral app that first predicted their arrival. Now, Hollis and Mia must face their final – and hardest – task yet: They will have to save not just each other or their home city but the entire world. ★★★★★ "The story is fast-paced and the characters are engrossing. The dialog is great and there are even parts that are a bit funny, especially with Hollis and his smart-mouthing. You don't necessarily have to read the books in the original "Invasion" series, though there are some references that take on a bit more meaning if you have. I highly recommend this book and other books written by Platt and Truant." -- DBStevens ★★★★★ "These guys always come up with stuff that makes me wonder: How does one even think up something like that! This book smartly pulls together this story and the original series and also wraps up with a very satisfying conclusion (while still leaving the door open for us to see Hollis and Mia again)! I definitely recommend it!" -- SLE ★★★★★ "This is the last book in the trilogy. I really enjoyed and loved this last book. The aliens, the bad guys who hate Hollis. This story is fast paced and so entertaining. I so recommend this book." -- Shirley ★★★★★ "This book was so good. It has a little of everything alien style. The main characters are great. It ties into the invasion series but you don't have to of read those books to enjoy this." -- Kindle Customer Save the World is the epic conclusion to the completed Save The Humans trilogy. If you’ve enjoyed the exploits of Hollis and Mia, you’ll love this thrilling final chapter! Pick up your copy today!
