Abstract

"New Zealand Landscape: Behind the Scene explores the geomorphology of New Zealand, describing how the landscapes developed and how some of the individual features that make up the scene evolved. It commences at the very beginning with the microcontinent Zealandia breaking away from Gondwana, and follows the evolution of the landmass and its landforms until the present day. It explores the effect of climate change on the islands' landscape and, in particular, the interaction of tectonic and climatic processes as the mountain ranges emerged. The book investigates the origins of many landscape features, including New Zealand's volcanoes and mountains, rivers and fluvial landscapes, glacial fjords and glacial history, karst and caves, and landform evolution at the mobile land-sea interface. New Zealand Landscape concludes with a review of the suite of geophysical hazards that occur in New Zealand and confront people living in the landscape. It considers the risk that these hazards present and the measures sometimes taken to mitigate them"--

Abstract

Ranging across novels and poetry, critical theory and film, comics and speeches, Race, Ethnicity and Nuclear War: Representations of Nuclear Weapons and Post-Apocalyptic Worlds explores how writers, thinkers, and filmmakers have answered the following question: are nuclear weapons ‘white’? Race, Ethnicity and Nuclear War listens to voices from around the Anglophone world and the debates followed do not only take place on the soil of the nuclear powers. Filmmakers and writers from the Caribbean, Australia, and India take up positions shaped by their specific place in the decolonizing world and their particular experience of nuclear weapons. The texts considered in Race, Ethnicity and Nuclear War encompass the many guises of representations of nuclear weapons. New thoughts are offered on the major texts that SF scholars often return to, such as Philip Wylie’s Tomorrow! and Pat Frank’s Alas Babylon, and a host of little known and under-researched texts are scrutinized too.
