  The Harmony of Nature - A...

  By enabling systems to exhibit their own development, permaculture follows a philosophy of working with nature rather than against it, of long-term observation rather than hasty action, of considering systems in all of their roles rather than focusing on a single output.    To put it another way, the vast majority of the species (and biomass) in a farmed environment are meant for human consumption or the use of animals. A small portion of the entire primordial or natural species assemblage is accessible to us, but we are not the exclusive beneficiaries of that portion. The plants we grow in our own gardens, on the other hand, are all chosen for their ability to directly benefit us as gardeners. Designing a home revolves around the requirements of its inhabitants, making it a human-centered endeavor (anthropocentric).    In order to preserve wilderness, we need both a human-centered morality and a focus on the natural world. As long as we don't control our monetary cravings, we won't be able to do any good for the natural world. Achieving this goal will enable us to leave most of the agricultural landscape behind, allowing natural systems to thrive.    All of this and much more are discussed in this book with exhaustive research and systematic steps for your benefit and thought-provoking and persuasive information.

  The Basques - The Impressive...

  The Basques are an ethnic group indigenous to Southwestern Europe, distinguished by their unique genetic heritage, ancient language (Euskara), and distinct cultural practices. Their homeland, known as the Basque Country (Euskal Herria), spans both sides of the Pyrenees, covering areas in north-central Spain and southwestern France, and lies along the Bay of Biscay. Basque identity traces back to ancient populations, such as the Vascones and Aquitanians, resulting in a rich and enduring cultural legacy that remains highly distinctive even today. 
  In recent years, advances in genetic research have provided remarkable insights into Basque origins. A pivotal study published in 2015 revealed that the Basques are primarily descended from Neolithic farmers who arrived in the Iberian Peninsula thousands of years ago. These early agriculturalists intermingled with the local Mesolithic hunter-gatherers in the region but later became genetically isolated, diverging significantly from other European populations over millennia. This long-standing genetic isolation has likely contributed to the unique characteristics of the Basque people and their differentiation from surrounding groups.

  Inside our heads we carry around an infinite and endlessly unfolding map of the world. Navigation is one of the most ancient neural abilities we have—older than language. In Dark and Magical Places, Christopher Kemp embarks on a journey to discover the remarkable extent of what our minds can do. 
   
   
   
  Fueled by his own spatial shortcomings, Kemp describes the brain regions that orient us in space and the specialized neurons that do it. Place cells. Grid cells. He examines how the brain plans routes, recognizes landmarks, and makes sure we leave a room through a door instead of trying to leave through a painting. From the secrets of supernavigators like the indigenous hunters of the Bolivian rainforest to the confusing environments inhabited by people with place blindness, Kemp charts the myriad ways in which we find our way and explains the cutting-edge neuroscience behind them. 
   
   
   
  How did Neanderthals navigate? Why do even seasoned hikers stray from the trail? What spatial skills do we inherit from our parents? How can smartphones and our reliance on GPS devices impact our brains? In engaging, engrossing language, Kemp unravels the mysteries of navigating and links the brain's complex functions to the effects that diseases like Alzheimer's, types of amnesia, and traumatic brain injuries have on our perception of the world around us.
