Giant investment funds were buying it, celebrities like Tom Brady endorsed it, and TV ads hailed it as the future of money. Hardly anyone knew how it worked-but why bother with the particulars when everyone was making a fortune from Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, or some other bizarrely named &#8220;digital asset&#8221;? As he observed this frenzy, investigative reporter Zeke Faux had a nagging question: Was it all just a confidence game of epic proportions? What started as curiosity-with a dash of FOMO-would morph into a two-year, globe-spanning quest to understand the wizards behind the world&#8217;s new financial machinery.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-161819 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.nmc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Over-the-Seawall.png\" alt=\"Over the Seawall book cover\" width=\"120\" height=\"178\" \/><\/strong><strong>Over the Seawall: Tsunamis, Cyclones, Drought, and the Delusion of Controlling Nature <\/strong>by Stephen Robert Miller<\/h3>\n<p>As extreme weather becomes more common, the urge to outwit nature can be irresistible. But when our expensive technosolutions backfire, are we worse off than before? How should we adapt to a changing climate? Miller reveals the unintended consequences of bad adaptations or as academics call it, maladaptations&#8211;fixes that do more harm than good. From seawalls in coastal Japan, to the reengineered waters in the Ganges River Delta, to the artificial ribbon of water supporting both farms and urban centers in parched Arizona, the author traces the histories of engineering marvels that were once deemed too smart and too big to fail.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-161825 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.nmc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Sustaining-Disabled-Youth.png\" alt=\"Sustaining Disabled Youth book cover\" width=\"120\" height=\"175\" \/><\/strong><strong><em>Sustaining Disabled Youth: Centering Disability in Asset Pedagogies <\/em><\/strong>edited by Frederico R.

Anchored in a commonsense notion of validity, this book explains how existing K-12 assessment practices are grounded in the language, experiences, and values of the dominant white culture. It presents a timely review of research on bias in classroom and large-scale assessments, as well as research on how students&#8217; level of engagement influences their performances.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-161821 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.nmc.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Winters-Children.png\" alt=\"Winters Children book cover\" width=\"120\" height=\"148\" \/><\/strong><strong>Winter&#8217;s Children: A Celebration of Nordic Skiing <\/strong>by Ryan Rodgers<\/h3>\n<p>In the winter of 1841, a Norwegian immigrant in Wisconsin strapped on a pair of wooden boards and set off across the snow to buy flour&#8211;leaving tracks that perplexed his neighbors and marked the arrival of Nordic skiing in America.
