Butterfly Safari

Andrew Fusek Peters

Synopsis

Andrew Fusek Peters has spent five years travelling around the UK to document and celebrate British butterflies. In Butterfly Safari, he shows butterflies in a new light, capturing close-ups of wing scales and the delicate structure of eggs, eyes and antennae. He has also pioneered never-before-seen flight shots and astonishing aerial sequences. Many of these photos have already appeared in the national papers and magazines. 
 
'With so many of our butterflies in decline, this is a very timely book by one of the country's best photographers. It's a must-have for the bookshelves!' Iolo Williams 
 
'This book captures the glorious beauty and heart-lifting spirit of butterflies better than any other.' Patrick Barkham, author of The Butterfly Isles 
 
'This book acptures the beauty and movement of butterflies like no other. The flight sequences are sublime - they are pure poetry in motion.' Dr Martin Warren, former Chief Executive of Butterfly Conservation

If P Then Q - Why Philosophy Can...

Russell Hasan

This short paper on logic argues that logic and science can go hand in hand, and that, by taking observations of perceptions and sensations, and applying logical analysis to them, you have the power to build conceptual models and frameworks that you can use in order to predict what you should do in the future and to reason how to solve the problems in your life. Examples from hard science, and examples of the use of science and logic in the courtroom to understand legal arguments, are presented, as well examples of how to figure out the answers to the mundane ordinary problems that we humans have in our lives. 
Mandatory must-read for anyone who wants to think and live using logic.

Egyptian Science and Technology...

Omar Khalil

Ancient Egypt, renowned for its monumental architecture and sophisticated culture, was also a hub of intellectual and scientific advancements. At the heart of Egyptian knowledge was a unique blend of practical experience, religious beliefs, and cultural traditions. Understanding the foundations of their knowledge requires examining the interplay between mythology, early scientific thought, and the ways this knowledge was transmitted through generations.
The role of religion and mythology in ancient Egypt cannot be overstated. Egyptian cosmology deeply influenced how people understood the world around them. Deities associated with creation, the afterlife, and natural phenomena shaped the Egyptians' perception of science and technology. For example, the god Thoth was believed to be the deity of wisdom, writing, and mathematics, and his influence permeated educational practices. Priests and scribes, who were often part of temple schools, acted as custodians of this sacred knowledge. Their training combined religious teachings with practical subjects like astronomy, mathematics, and medicine.
Early scientific thought in ancient Egypt was pragmatic rather than theoretical. Egyptians were skilled observers, and much of their knowledge arose from practical problem-solving. Whether it was calculating the Nile's flooding patterns or designing complex irrigation systems, their science emerged from the need to manage everyday challenges. For instance, their understanding of geometry developed out of the necessity to remeasure fields after the annual inundation of the Nile. Similarly, medical practices were rooted in practical observations of ailments and their treatments, blending empirical knowledge with spiritual beliefs.
