The effects of what historians call the ";General Crisis"; extended from England to Japan, from the Russian Empire to sub-Saharan Africa. The Americas, too, did not escape the turbulence of the time. In this meticulously researched volume, master historian Geoffrey Parker presents the firsthand testimony of men and women who saw and suffered from the sequence of political, economic, and social crises between 1618 to the late 1680's. Parker also deploys the scientific evidence of climate change during this period. His discoveries revise entirely our understanding of the General Crisis: changes in prevailing weather patterns, especially longer winters and cooler and wetter summers, disrupted growing seasons and destroyed harvests. This in turn brought hunger, malnutrition, and disease; and as material conditions worsened, wars, rebellions, and revolutions rocked the world. Parker's demonstration of the link between climate change, war, and catastrophe 350 years ago stands as an extraordinary historical achievement. And the implications of his study are equally important: are we adequately prepared-or even preparing-for the catastrophes that climate change brings?History, Modern17th centuryMilitary history17th centuryCivil warHistory17th centuryRevolutionsHistory17th centuryClimatic changesSocial aspectsHistory17th centuryDisastersHistory17th centuryHistory, ModernMilitary historyCivil warHistoryRevolutionsHistoryClimatic changesSocial aspectsHistoryDisastersHistory909.6Parker Geoffrey1933-923222MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967188503321Global crisis4362961UNINA03210nam 22006375 450 99666846810331620250725130238.09789819698912(electronic bk.)978981969890510.1007/978-981-96-9891-2(MiAaPQ)EBC32235812(Au-PeEL)EBL32235812(CKB)39719248400041(DE-He213)978-981-96-9891-2(EXLCZ)993971924840004120250725d2025 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAdvanced Intelligent Computing Technology and Applications 21st International Conference, ICIC 2025, Ningbo, China, July 26–29, 2025, Proceedings, Part XI /edited by De-Shuang Huang, Bo Li, Haiming Chen, Chuanlei Zhang1st ed. 2025.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2025.1 online resource (883 pages)Lecture Notes in Computer Science,1611-3349 ;15852Print version: Huang, De-Shuang Advanced Intelligent Computing Technology and Applications Singapore : Springer,c2025 9789819698905 This 20-volume set LNCS 15842-15861 constitutes - in conjunction with the 4-volume set LNAI 15862-15865 and the 4-volume set LNBI 15866-15869 - the refereed proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Intelligent Computing, ICIC 2025, held in Ningbo, China, during July 26-29, 2025. The total of 1206 regular papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 4032 submissions. This year, the conference concentrated mainly on the theories and methodologies as well as the emerging applications of intelligent computing. Its aim was to unify the picture of contemporary intelligent computing techniques as an integral concept that highlights the trends in advanced computational intelligence and bridges theoretical research with applications. Therefore, the theme for this conference was "Advanced Intelligent Computing Technology and Applications".Lecture Notes in Computer Science,1611-3349 ;15852Computational intelligenceComputer networksMachine learningApplication softwareComputational IntelligenceComputer Communication NetworksMachine LearningComputer and Information Systems ApplicationsComputational intelligence.Computer networks.Machine learning.Application software.Computational Intelligence.Computer Communication Networks.Machine Learning.Computer and Information Systems Applications.006.3Huang De-Shuang1732604Li Bo645181Chen Haiming1833175Zhang Chuanlei1438977MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ996668468103316Advanced Intelligent Computing Technology and Applications4409133UNISA
