But what is a wilderness, really? It is a powerful, ancient concept, lying at the intersection of landscape, philosophy, and ecology. And for thousands of years, people have sought out uncontrolled, unknown, or uncharted nature in search of religious epiphany, self-actualization, and an escape from modern life. More recently these "pristine" places have been seen as the subject of a last effort to repair a planet imperiled by humans. But as award-winning writer Cal Flyn traverses the most forbidding, untamed and inhospitable wild lands--the supposedly uninhabited wilds of the world--she finds that such truly untouched lands don't exist: Nearly every wilderness has been or is actively inhabited by humans. Here we meet ascetics in search of theophany in the desert; lonely shepherds running off wolves under the stars; missionaries preaching from shacks deep in the jungle; wise lamas meditating under lofty mountain peaks. The Savage Landscape takes us into these breathtaking wilds--deep into dark forests, to thetops of mountains, and into the hearts of deserts--asking provocative questions about the nature of wilderness, its preservation, and its meaning"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2466254</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2466254</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Flyn, Cal]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2466254099</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How We Made the Wilderness</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593833087/MC.GIF&amp;client=sjcpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Stay Calm]]></title><description><![CDATA[From one of the pioneers of index investing and a founder of factor investing comes a clear, calming, and empowering guide to building true wealth--rooted not in predictions, hacks, or market timing but in the science of how markets actually work. For more than 50 years, David Booth has been at the center of a monumental transformation in personal finance. As founder of Dimensional Fund Advisors, Booth has worked alongside Nobel laureates Gene Fama, Merton Miller, Myron Scholes, and Robert Merton, helping to transform investing from a game of speculation into a discipline grounded in evidence, diversification, and long-term thinking. In Stay Calm, he shares the lessons, mindset, and stories behind that revolution--and shows readers how to apply them in their own lives. Warm, wise, and refreshingly free of jargon, Stay Calm is both a practical guide to long-term investing and a philosophy for living with clarity and confidence. Whether you're just starting out, rethinking your financial plan, or guiding others, this book will change the way you think about markets, risk, and what really matters.]]></description><link>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2468654</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2468654</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Booth, David]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2468654099</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Learn to Embrace Uncertainty in Investing and Life</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798893311952/MC.GIF&amp;client=sjcpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Vanishing Earth]]></title><description><![CDATA["A journey to the ravaged frontiers of extractive industry and the promising, often radical alternatives emerging just as we reach the point of exhausting the earth's natural resources. Over the last half-century, humanity has taken more from the Earth than in all prior history combined. The planet is littered with the vast scars of extraction--yet, ironically, it is only by confronting the ruins of our 'old' world that we can find the path towards the 'new'. In The Vanishing Earth, James Crawford, born into a landscape and family steeped in fossil fuels, takes readers to the literal and ideological frontiers of extraction. Beginning with the story of humanity's decoupling from nature, Crawford embarks on an epic journey to five resource landscapes rapidly trending towards exhaustion: landscapes of rock, metal, sand, water and thought. From the salt flats of Chile's Atacama Desert lithium mines to the 'sacrifice zone' of Florida's phosphorus-rich Bone Valley, and even chillingly advanced attempts to harvest personal data from the brain itself, Crawford explores some of the most extreme scenes of the Anthropocene. Along the way, he asks what lies behind our insatiable appetites and explores emerging alternatives that might just spare our vanishing natural resources, transform our economies, and save our relationship with nature itself"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2467167</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2467167</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Crawford, James]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2467167099</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Dispatches From the Frontiers of Extraction</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781639733224/MC.GIF&amp;client=sjcpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Capital From Zero]]></title><description><![CDATA["Capital From Zero is a reading guide, a manifesto, a revision, and a reclamation of Marx's foundational work of political theory.

But, in mere decades, industrialization and unregulated hunting brought these emblems of the East to the precipice of extinction; by the 1950s, squirrels were one of the few wild mammals an easterner was likely to encounter. Now, even as the climate and biodiversity crises loom, eastern wildlife are staging an unlikely comeback. Herds of bison graze on Illinois prairies, red wolves lurk in North Carolina's coastal marshes, and abandoned coal mines in Kentucky are now home to thousands of elk. Such rewilding promises to restore balance to eastern ecosystems and return one of the most biodiverse regions in the world to its former luster--but not without controversy. In The Beasts of the East, we follow environmental writer and James Beard Award finalist Andrew Moore as he meets conservationists, hunters, biologists, and nature lovers as they confront herculean challenges: How can we enable wildlife migration in the midst of suburban sprawl? Are these success stories viable in the long-term? When humans and wildlife come in close contact, how do we define wilderness?]]></description><link>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2463776</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2463776</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Moore, Andrew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2463776099</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Fall and Rise of America&apos;s Eastern Wilderness</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063001220/MC.GIF&amp;client=sjcpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Total Money Makeover]]></title><description><![CDATA[This new edition of The Total Money Makeover includes new content that will help you tackle marriage conflict, college debt, and so much more..

A dedicated and experienced Amazon employee, increasingly frustrated by the inner workings of the retail giant, Smalls had already felt himself reaching a breaking point. So, when coworkers around him began falling ill, and with no transparency or assurances of safety coming from those in charge, he made the only choice left available to him. He staged a walkout with friend Derrick Palmer, eventually finding himself on the picket line without a job. But what began as a demand to keep essential employees safe in a crisis would grow into a movement devoted to achieving dignity and security for the American wage worker, sparking a groundswell of organizers at the most notable companies across the nation-including Starbucks, Trader Joe's, and Apple-and leading to lasting change for labor... This epic David-and-Goliath tale traces Smalls' dramatic story, from a childhood spent navigating his dad's stints in and out of prison to his early pursuits of a career in music; from his years of sacrifice and economic uncertainty as a father of three, fighting a miasma of warehouse managerial politics in an effort to make ends meet, to his ascension as the leader of a new generation's labor movement."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2463751</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2463751</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Smalls, Christian]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2463751099</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Fight for the Future of the Working Class</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593700631/MC.GIF&amp;client=sjcpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Incorruptible]]></title><description><![CDATA["From Eric Ries, creator of The Lean Startup, comes a bold and urgently needed rethink of how organizations are built--and why success itself so often turns companies against the people and principles that made them worth building in the first place. For decades, we've explained corporate corruption as a problem of bad actors, moral weakness, or isolated scandals. But that story doesn't match reality. Again and again, companies founded with strong ideals drift toward short-term thinking, extractive behavior, and mission abandonment--often despite the best intentions of the people inside them. Incorruptible argues that this failure is not primarily ethical. It is structural. As organizations grow, the systems that govern them--ownership, incentives, charters, accountability, and decision-making--quietly reshape behavior. When those systems are poorly designed, even principled leaders are pushed toward outcomes they never wanted. Success itself becomes a form of financial gravity, bending companies away from their original purpose. Drawing on two decades of work with founders, CEOs, investors, and institution builders, Ries shows how these failures arise predictably--and how they can be prevented. He reframes corporate governance not as bureaucracy or compliance, but as a creative and strategic act at the heart of building enduring, mission-controlled companies. At a moment when trust in business is eroding, Incorruptible offers a clear-eyed diagnosis and a practical blueprint for change. Success alone will not protect what matters most. Only incorruptible design can." -- from inside flap]]></description><link>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2465055</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2465055</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ries, Eric]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2465055099</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Why Good Companies Go Bad...and How Great Companies Stay Great</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9798893311860/MC.GIF&amp;client=sjcpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Series 7 Study Guide 2026-2027]]></title><link>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2463226</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S99C2463226</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bowling, Matthew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sjcpl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2463226099</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>5 Full-length Practice Tests : Secrets Exam Prep Book and Study Materials for the FINRA Series 7</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781516731756/MC.GIF&amp;client=sjcpl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Money Unlocked]]></title><description><![CDATA["In Money Unlocked, internationally renowned entrepreneur and self-made millionaire John Lee shared how to make money work for you, instead of you working for money.
