Ben Davidson's flagship textbook on the sun-earth connection. The Sun, The Earth and The Disaster Cycle collects the science behind the Suspicious0bservers daily space weather briefings into one college-style volume: space weather, solar forcing of weather, and the recurring disaster cycle.
What's inside
Space weather and how the sun drives events on Earth
Rethinking climate narratives with solar forcing of weather
The disaster cycle: pole shifts, solar micronova, and great tsunamis
Prepping for disaster, grounded in the science
Who it's for
Students, self-educators, preppers, and anyone who follows the daily briefings and wants the underlying material in one organized place. Written in a college and graduate textbook style rather than as a light popular-science read.
