Summary

"Power of Sound" explores the profound impact of acoustics and auditory perception, revealing how sound shapes our understanding of communication, emotion, and even healing. It delves into the science of sound waves, examining how they are generated, travel, and interact with the environment, while also exploring the anatomy of human hearing and the diverse ways animals perceive sound. The book highlights sound as an active force, not just a passive input, showing its influence on our perceptions and behaviors. Did you know, for example, that the ultrasonic calls of bats and the infrasonic rumbles of elephants demonstrate the extensive range of acoustic communication in nature? The book progresses logically, first establishing the principles of acoustics, then exploring sound's role in communication, particularly animal vocalizations and the evolution of human language. It analyzes the connection between sound and music, examining how musical structures evoke emotions and influence cognitive processes, and investigates the therapeutic applications of sound, such as music therapy and ultrasound technology. "Power of Sound" uniquely integrates findings from diverse scientific disciplines, presenting a holistic understanding of sound's ubiquitous influence. It showcases real-world applications, from helping musicians improve their performance to aiding healthcare professionals in diagnostics and therapy.

Illustrated Seamanship -...

Ivar Dedekam

For any sailor, in a yacht or motorboat, the passage from one place to another is relatively easy, particularly with modern navigation equipment. What can be more of a challenge (and a potential source of anxiety for skipper and crew) is the start and end of a passage – how to leave and arrive safely, particularly if it's a cramped marina or crowded anchorage. In Illustrated Seamanship, Ivar Dedekam takes you through the techniques required to achieve a safe departure and arrival. Starting with the fundamentals of ropework he then moves on to manoeuvring, berthing, making fast and then leaving. All types of berthing are covered from coming alongside, stern to, bow to, between finger pontoons and using piles and buoys. There is advice about dealing with different wind and current directions as well as using springs. Ivar then turns to anchoring and offers guidance on setting and weighing anchor in many different circumstances: under sail and under power, using one or two anchors and coping with changes in wind and tide while anchored. You probably won't experience all the scenarios that Ivar so carefully describes, but you will certainly come across quite a few. Knowing what to do when a new situation comes up could be invaluable, increasing your confidence and leading to greater enjoyment and use of your boat. With over 500 diagrams, this slim volume is a perfect reminder of frequently used techniques and could be your get-out-of-jail card when a new circumstance arises. This new edition has an improved layout and the eBook's functionality has been improved significantly.

Bird Keeping - Everything You...

Angie Tracks

This book contains 2 books, which are:
Birds - Selecting the right bird and creating a comfortable living environment are crucial first steps in ensuring a happy and healthy life for your feathered companion. The process begins with understanding your own lifestyle and preferences, as this will help you choose a bird species that aligns with your needs. Birds vary widely in size, temperament, and care requirements. For example, small species like canaries and finches are low-maintenance and ideal for beginners, while parrots and cockatoos demand more attention and interaction due to their intelligence and social nature. Once you’ve chosen your bird, setting up an appropriate home is the next essential step. A well-chosen cage serves as both a sanctuary and a playground for your bird, so it’s important to select one that suits its size and activity level. Smaller birds require less space but still benefit from a cage that allows for free movement, while larger species need ample room to stretch their wings and explore. The spacing between the bars should be appropriate for your bird’s size to ensure safety and prevent escapes.
Parrots - Parrots are among the most captivating and intelligent birds, known for their vibrant plumage, social personalities, and remarkable ability to mimic sounds. These fascinating creatures have been companions to humans for centuries, offering not just companionship but also the joy of watching their unique behaviors and engaging in interactive activities. Whether you are a first-time parrot owner or have experience with pet birds, understanding the intricacies of parrot care and training is essential for ensuring a happy and healthy life for your feathered friend.
