Synopsis

In 'The Bird Watcher in the Shetlands, with Some Notes on Seals—and Digressions,' Edmund Selous invites readers on an intimate exploration of the avian life and unique ecosystems of the Shetland Islands. This work seamlessly blends natural history with personal narrative, reflecting Selous's deep engagement with the natural world. His lyrical prose captures the vivid colors and dynamic behaviors of birds, while his digressive style allows for contemplative musings on broader ecological themes. As a notable figure in the early conservation movement, Selous presents his observations within a rich literary context, intertwining scientific rigor with an artistic appreciation for nature, making it both informative and poignant. Edmund Selous (1857-1934) was an influential British ornithologist and naturalist, whose passion for wildlife conservation burgeoned from a young age. Raised in a family that valued the outdoors, Selous's interests in ornithology were piqued during extensive travels across Britain, notably to remote locations like the Shetlands. His experiences in these stark yet beautiful landscapes sharpened his observational skills and reinforced his commitment to environmental preservation, informing the depth of his writing in this volume. For readers who appreciate nature writing or are interested in the history of conservation, Selous's work offers a timeless exploration of the interplay between humanity and the wild. 'The Bird Watcher in the Shetlands' is an enriching journey that resonates with both casual readers and dedicated ornithologists, encouraging a deeper connection to the natural world.

Infinity and our Unbounded Universe

Martin K. Ettington

The concept of Infinity has been around since the ancients and it has many practical applications in mathematics like Calculus.Infinity is also important in Fractals which are a graphical algorithm which is used in many computer graphics applications today and which has infinite depth.It is also applicable to our Universe since the standard concept we are taught about the Big Bang as the beginning of the Universe may be wrong.Modern evidence is showing us contradictions which say that we live in a Universe which is steady state and might even be infinite in size. The Universe doesn’t have a creation date we can be sure of. We don’t really know if it is infinite in size but the Universe is certainly much larger and older than our best scientific instruments can measure. This book is an exploration of Infinity and new understandings of our Universe which have come to light in recent decades.
