fevered planet john vidal

Covid-19, mpox, bird flu, SARS, HIV, AIDS, Ebola; we are living in the Age of Pandemics one that we have created. As the climate crisis reaches a fever pitch and ecological destruction continues unabated, we are just beginning to reckon with the effects of environmental collapse on our global health. Fevered Planet exposes how the way we farm, what we eat, the places we travel to and the scientific experiments we conduct create the perfect conditions for deadly new diseases to emerge and spread faster and further than ever. Drawing on the latest scientific research and decades of reporting from more than 100 countries, former Guardian environment editor John Vidal takes us into deep, disappearing forests in Gabon and the Congo, valleys scorched by wildfire near Lake Tahoe and our densest, polluted cities to show how closely human, animal and plant diseases are now intertwined with planetary destruction. He calls for an urgent transformation in our relationship with the natural world, and expertly outlines how to make that change possible.

John Perry udělal na své pětasedmdesátiny dvě věci. Nejprve navštívil hrob své ženy. Potom vstoupil do armády. Dobrá zpráva je, že se člověk dostal ke hvězdám. Na druhou stranu existuje jen málo planet vhodných k životu – a mnoho cizích ras o ně s námi bojuje. Takže lidstvo válčí. Daleko od Země již desetiletí zuří brutální, krvavé a neúprosné boje. Samotná Země je v bezpečí. Většina jejích zdrojů je v rukách Koloniálních obranných sil, a každý ví, že jakmile nastane čas odejít na odpočinek, může se přidat. KOS nestojí o mladé lidi, chce lidi, kteří mají desetiletí zkušeností a dovedností. Jakmile opustíte Zemi, již nikdy se nevrátíte. Dva roky si odsloužíte v bojích, a pokud přežijete, můžete se usadit na jedné z těžce získaných planet. John Perry se chápe této příležitosti. Myslí si, že ví, co ho očekává. Ale opravdový boj, světelné roky od domova, je daleko těžší, než si dokáže představit, a co se z něho stane, je ještě mnohem neskutečnější.

Když člověk konečně dosáhl hvězd, zjistil, že jen málo planet je vhodných k životu a že ve vzdáleném vesmíru zuří o každou z nich krvavá válka mezi mnoha technicky vyspělými rasami. Přestože člověk nepatří mezi ty nejrozvinutější, již desetiletí zuřivě a neúprosně bojuje daleko od domova, aby samotná Země zůstala v bezpečí. Většinu zdrojů ovládají Koloniální obranné síly, ke kterým se může přidat každý, jehož pozemský čas se naplnil. KOS nestojí o mladé lidi, chce již zkušené a vyspělé jedince, kteří se po odchodu ze Země již nikdy na rodnou planetu nevrátí. V bojích si odslouží dva roky, a pokud přežijí, mohou se usadit na jedné z těžce získaných planet. John Perry se rozhodne využít nabízené příležitosti. Myslí si, že ví, co ho čeká. Ale opravdový boj, světelné roky od domova, představuje jeho nejhorší noční můry, a to, co se z něho stává, je ještě mnohem děsivější.

Gore Vidal s classic novel of Aaron Burr - the man who shot Alexander Hamilton.In 1804, Colonel Aaron Burr, Vice-President of the United States, shot and killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel. Three years later, on the order of President Thomas Jefferson, he was tried for treason: for plotting to dismember the United States.Gore Vidal, romping iconoclastically through American history, debunks, in this historical novel of Burr s life, the common and casually held notion of the man as a scoundrel and an adventurer. Instead he appears as one of the host of choice spirits forced to live among coarse, materialistic, hypocritical people, among them Jefferson and Hamilton. Here, the latter appears as a power-hungry parvenu from the West Indies and the former as a semi-literate slave-owning tyrant. American politics, suggests Vidal, had a penchant for the vulgar. Even then.Veering backwards to the revolution and the early days of the republic, stopping at dinner-parties on the way, and reaching forward to the future, Burr is a novel about treason, both the particular and in general. For what, asks Vidal, really belongs to whom? What properly belongs to the Constitution, to the nation, to the family even, intriguingly, to novelists and historians?

**A SUNDAY TIMES MUST-READ** Riveting and vitally important - Steven Pinker A gripping narrative of a world on the cusp of profound change - Anjana Ahuja, New StatesmanEmpty Planet offers a radical, provocative argument that the global population will soon begin to decline, dramatically reshaping the social, political and economic landscape.For half a century, statisticians, pundits and politicians have warned that a burgeoning planetary population will soon overwhelm the earth s resources. But a growing number of experts are sounding a different kind of alarm. Rather than growing exponentially, they argue, the global population is headed for a steep decline. Throughout history, depopulation was the product of catastrophe: ice ages, plagues, the collapse of civilizations. This time, however, we re thinning ourselves deliberately, by choosing to have fewer babies than we need to replace ourselves. In much of the developed and developing world, that decline is already underway, as urbanisation, women s empowerment, and waning religiosity lead to smaller and smaller families. In Empty Planet, Ibbitson and Bricker travel from South Florida to Sao Paulo, Seoul to Nairobi, Brussels to Delhi to Beijing, drawing on a wealth of research and firsthand reporting to illustrate the dramatic consequences of this population decline - and to show us why the rest of the developing world will soon join in. They find that a smaller global population will bring with it a number of benefits: fewer workers will command higher wages; good jobs will prompt innovation; the environment will improve; the risk of famine will wane; and falling birthrates in the developing world will bring greater affluence and autonomy for women. But enormous disruption lies ahead, too. We can already see the effects in Europe and parts of Asia, as aging populations and worker shortages weaken the economy and impose crippling demands on healthcare and vital social services. There may be earth-shaking implications on a geopolitical scale as well. Empty Planet is a hugely important book for our times. Captivating and persuasive, it is a story about urbanisation, access to education and the empowerment of women to choose their own destinies. It is about the secularisation of societies and the vital role that immigration has to play in our futures.Rigorously researched and deeply compelling, Empty Planet offers a vision of a future that we can no longer prevent - but that we can shape, if we choose to.

Pierre Vidal-Naquet (1930-2006) byl vynikající francouzský historik, odborník na dějiny starého Řecka. Mezi jeho díla patří Économies et Sociétés en Grčce ancienne (Hospodářství a společnost ve starém Řecku, 1972, spoluautor Michel Austin), Le Chasseur noir. Formes de pensées et formes de société dans le monde grec (Černý lovec. Formy myšlení a společenského uspořádání řeckého světa, 1981) či Le Miroir brisé: tragédie athénienne et politique (Rozbité zrcadlo: athénská tragédie a politika, 2002). Jako angažovaný intelektuál vystoupil koncem 60. let proti francouzské koloniální válce v Alžírsku, věnoval se dokumentaci studentského hnutí v roce 1968 a také spolu s Michelem Foucaultem a Jeanem-Marie Domenachem zakládal v roce 1971 Skupinu pro informování o vězeňství. Nemalé úsilí věnoval rovněž boji proti historickému revizionismu, tedy snahám o popření holocaustu. Jeho klíčové texty k této otázce jsou shrnuty právě ve svazku Vrazi paměti.
