Beschreibung

Lunar Mysteries explores the profound impact of the Moon on human culture, religion, and artistic expression throughout history. The book uncovers how ancient civilizations perceived the Moon not just as a celestial body, but as a potent symbol of cyclical change, renewal, and even a divine entity. From influencing early agricultural practices and timekeeping to shaping religious rituals and mythological narratives, the Moon's presence is deeply interwoven with humanity's understanding of existence. Did you know that lunar calendars dictated the timing of sacred sites and festivals in numerous cultures?

 
The book journeys through the scientific properties of the Moon and their early observations, before delving into specific themes. It examines lunar deities in ancient mythologies, explores the Moon's influence on religious rituals and festivals, and analyzes lunar imagery and symbolism in literature, from epic poetry to modern novels.

 
By contrasting lunar myths and rituals across diverse societies like ancient Mesopotamia, pre-Columbian America, and Oceania, Lunar Mysteries reveals both commonalities and striking differences in how the Moon has been perceived. Ultimately, the book highlights the Moon's enduring appeal and its continuing influence on contemporary society, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the intersection of science, religion, and cultural history.

The Book of Flaco - The World’s...

David Gessner

The story of Flaco, the Eurasian eagle-owl who escaped from Central Park Zoo and captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of followers around the world. 
 
 
 
Nature writer David Gessner chronicles the year-long odyssey of Flaco and the human drama that followed the owl who captured the imaginations of New Yorkers and people around the world. Though he'd spent his life in a cage, Flaco learned to survive in New York City by eating rats, squirrels, and birds. He was an immigrant coming from elsewhere to make it in the big city. Central Park, the island of green in an urban sea, was his new home territory. 
 
 
 
Flaco's urban adventure brought controversy, pitting those who felt he should be returned to the safety of the zoo against those who created the "Free Flaco" movement. The birding world was fractured over the ethics of the online sharing of his location that brought scores of enthusiasts to view him each day. And his end—with a grim necropsy revealing Flaco had suffered a viral infection from eating pigeons and had multiple rodenticides in his system—serves as a Rachel Carson-esque warning about the harm we've done to our urban environments, inspiring the passage of long-sought legislation protecting urban birds and regulations meant to reduce the use of rodenticides in New York City.

City Networks - Connectivity and...

Lyric Vale

Connectivity is a critical element in shaping the development and functionality of modern cities. As urbanization accelerates, the ability to connect people, services, and infrastructure becomes fundamental in ensuring that cities grow in a sustainable, efficient, and equitable manner. Whether through transportation, digital infrastructure, or social systems, connectivity determines the overall effectiveness of urban environments. It not only enables economic growth and innovation but also enhances the quality of life for urban residents, facilitating better access to services, opportunities, and resources. As cities evolve, improving connectivity has become one of the most pressing priorities for urban planners, policymakers, and developers.
Historically, the evolution of urban connectivity was rooted in physical infrastructure. Roads, railways, and ports formed the foundation for the development of cities, enabling the movement of goods, services, and people. These early forms of connectivity allowed urban centers to thrive, driving economic activity and creating spaces for cultural exchange. As cities grew, so did their need for more complex and advanced networks. In the 21st century, digital connectivity has added a new layer of importance to urban development. High-speed internet, mobile technology, and digital communication systems have transformed how cities function, providing real-time access to information and services that were previously unavailable.
The concept of the "smart city" highlights the profound impact of digital connectivity on urban life. By integrating technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence, and big data, cities can improve everything from traffic management to resource distribution. Smart city solutions enable cities to operate more efficiently and sustainably, optimizing the use of energy, water, and other resources while reducing waste and pollution.
