A landmark work in epidemiological and world history, Plagues and Peoples fundamentally reshaped the way historians understand the role of infectious disease in shaping civilizations, warfare, migration, and empire. William H. McNeill argues that epidemic disease has acted as one of history's great unseen forces, influencing the outcomes of military campaigns, demographic shifts, and global power structures from antiquity through the modern era. Drawing on history, biology, medicine, and anthropology, McNeill traces the interactions between human populations and infectious pathogens across centuries of expanding trade and conquest. Particularly influential are his discussions of the Black Death, Old World diseases in the Americas, and the relationship between urbanization and epidemic spread. The work became foundational to the fields of environmental history, global history, and historical epidemiology. Widely regarded as one of the most important crossover works between medical history and historical scholarship of the twentieth century, this first edition remains highly collectible among historians, medical humanities scholars, and readers interested in pandemics and civilization studies.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the relationship between the composition of the riverbed gravels in salmon spawning grounds and the successful hatching of salmon eggs and development of salmon larvae. The author describes methods for measuring the gravel composition, and presents a relationship between the volume of solids less than a certain minimum dimension and the permeability coefficient of stream bottom materials. This permeability is critical to the survival of eggs and larvae. The author compares gravel composition and permeability of spawning grounds that support varying densities of spawning salmon, demonstrating differences between productive and less productive spawning grounds. The author also discusses temporal changes in gravel composition associated with spawning, logging, and flooding. The findings have significant implications for understanding the factors that affect salmon populations and for managing salmon habitats. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
