Hardback. New. Saúl Luciano Lliuya guides tours in the mountains and his family grow corn wheat barley and potatoes on their farm in Huaraz Peru a community of more than 100000 people in the Andes near Palcacocha a glacial lake. Palcacocha however is growing as is the major flood risk to Huaraz. Climate change through the emission of greenhouse gases continues to melt the Peruvian glaciers—greenhouse gases that come from corporate polluters not just in Peru but across the industrialized world. So Luciano Lliuya decided to sue. Although the German energy company RWE has never operated in Peru Luciano Lliuya sought to hold the company which uses coal power generation liable for damages in a groundbreaking case that despite being dismissed established that major emitters can be held liable for climate harms. In <i>The Climate Trial</i> anthropologist Noah Walker-Crawford draws on years of personal involvement with the lawsuit and extensive fieldwork in Peru and Germany to follow the people legal strategies scientific arguments and political tensions that have shaped the trial. More than a courtroom drama <i>The Climate Trial</i> is a deeply human story about moral responsibility in a changing world and what it means to be a “good neighbor†while living thousands of miles away. hardcover

Hardback. New. <b>Can a game take care of us And do we want it to</b><br /><br /><i>Animal Crossing: New Horizons </i>was released on March 20 2020—just as a pandemic kept many from family work restaurants and the rest of their regularly scheduled lives. At its height the game averaged one million copies sold per day as players sought comfort escape and a virtual means of connection. In this book game scholar Noah Wardrip-Fruin isolated with his family by both lockdown and disability explores the power of this game and the mixed emotions of a player and a parent trying to make it from one day to the next—while his kids’ obsession with <i>Animal Crossing</i> creates conflicts between them and pushback against family rules.<br />  <br /> Wardrip-Fruin helps both <i>Animal Crossing </i>fans and newcomers understand the unexpected beneath the game’s surface: like the story of the first <i>Animal Crossing</i> codesigned by an absent father seeking connection; like the hallmarks of video game manipulation from “streak†bonuses to game-determined playtimes; like the appeal of endless shopping in a kind of “safe†capitalism; and of course like the character quirks of a raccoon dog Tom Nook who provides a world of both safety and strange paternalism.<br />  <br /> For many this blockbuster game offered a comforting world compared to a reality of danger. In this first entry in the Replay series Wardrip-Fruin offers an absorbing investigation of a game’s role in contemporary social life and a book that belongs on the shelf of anyone who loves or is puzzled by this Nintendo sensation. hardcover
