Sinossi

Funny Science Discoveries explores the amusing side of scientific inquiry within biology and life sciences, revealing unexpected findings and challenging our understanding of the natural world. The book emphasizes the human element in science, highlighting that discoveries aren't always groundbreaking theories, but can be peculiar phenomena found hiding in plain sight. It underscores the importance of open-mindedness in challenging established ideas.

 
The book progresses across chapters, beginning with an exploration into "unexpected biology," including the concept of plant communication via chemical signals. It then examines animals exhibiting unusual behaviors seemingly defying physics, such as those surviving in extreme conditions. Finally, it delves into cognitive biases influencing the interpretation of scientific data. This approach demonstrates that even seemingly ridiculous scientific findings can offer valuable insights into complex biological systems.

 
The value of Funny Science Discoveries lies in its atypical approach, embracing quirks and unconventional findings to make science both informative and entertaining, fostering scientific literacy and critical thinking. By presenting debates within the scientific community, the book promotes a deeper understanding of the scientific process itself.

In Days Gone By

Mike Blake

"This Poem 'In Days Gone By - Newbury'. Part 3 of the series Nature: Natural Healing.A time when most of the UK Countryside was criss-crossed by small roads and slow moving cars.And the pace was slower and more durable for nature.A delicate balance had been formed between the new motor car and the hedgerows and byways that struck a chord of harmony between each other. Broken now, with too many Motorways and not enough cycle lanes - leaving nature, floundering.I the Author have been writing Poetry for around 20 years. Most of it has been published on Amazon. I write on varied topics which resonate with what I'm thinking or studying at that time.Credit for the artwork on this piece, goes to Mike Miko for his interpretation of this poem into pictorial Art form." His skill in depicting the scenes of the Newbury bypass running through the heart of a forest, with a ghostly image of Swampies son, was truly remarkable.
