The Lochsa Elk Herd
History and Future
This volume records the history of an elk population that occupies boreal and coniferous forests. After major fires created millions of acres of new habitat, the herd expanded to levels unlikely to be reached again. Elk must be recognized as products of forest disturbance.

How Organic Pollutants Poison Our Health
Unsafe at Any Level
Many of the infinite number of organic pollutants that poison our environment are derived from organic-based precursors and can dissolve into a folded protein. This work explains how proteins are made, folded, and function, and discusses the ways in which pollutants affect them.
