Though still hotly debated by some,
global warming is now an accepted fact in the wider
scientific community. The average temperature of
the Earth is clearly getting warmer. As scientists
work to develop accurate models to predict the full
impact of global warming, researchers, policy makers
and industry leaders are attempting to understand
and agree on what can be done to minimize or even
reverse the impact of human contributions to global
climate change.
Volumes in the new Confronting Global Warming
series explore in detail the range of current and
impending challenges the planet faces as a result of
global warming. Climate change potentially affects all
aspects of modern life, from weather and agriculture
to health and politics. The series examines these
issues from a variety of expert perspectives, highlights
key future challenges, and addresses the pros and
cons of potential solutions -- all in a clear, unbiased
manner. Confronting Global Warming is the perfect
resource for students needing up-to-date, authoritative
information on what may be the most significant issue
of our time.

William Marston was an unusual man--a psychologist, a soft-porn pulp novelist, more than a bit of a carny, and the (self-declared) inventor of the lie detector. He was also the creator of "Wonder Woman," the comic that he used to express two of his greatest passions: feminism and women in bondage.
Comics expert Noah Berlatsky takes us on a wild ride through the "Wonder Woman" comics of the 1940s, vividly illustrating how Marston's many quirks and contradictions, along with the odd disproportionate composition created by illustrator Harry Peter, produced a comic that was radically ahead of its time in terms of its bold presentation of female power and sexuality. Himself a committed polyamorist, Marston created a universe that was friendly to queer sexualities and lifestyles, from kink to lesbianism to cross-dressing. Written with a deep affection for the fantastically pulpy elements of the early "Wonder Woman"comics, from invisible jets to giant multi-lunged space kangaroos, the book also reveals how the comic addressed serious, even taboo issues like rape and incest.
"Wonder Woman: Bondage and Feminism in the Marston/Peter Comics" "1941-1948 "reveals how illustrator and writer came together to create a unique, visionary work of art, filled with bizarre ambition, revolutionary fervor, and love, far different from the action hero symbol of the feminist movement many of us recall from television.
