  Part field guide, part history, part ornithology primer, and altogether fun. 
   
   
   
  Fact: Pigeons are amazing, and until recently, humans adored them. We've kept them as pets, held pigeon beauty contests, raced them, used them to carry messages over battlefields, harvested their poop to fertilize our crops—and cooked them in gourmet dishes. Now, with A Pocket Guide to Pigeon Watching, listeners can rediscover the wonder. Equal parts field guide and quirky history, it covers behavior: Why they coo; how they flock; how they preen, kiss, and mate (monogamously); and how they raise their young (on chunky pigeon milk). Anatomy and identification, from Birmingham Roller to the American Giant Runt to the Scandaroon. Birder issues, like what to do if you find a baby pigeon stranded in the park. And our lively shared story together, including all the things we've taught them—Ping-Pong, for example. "Rats with wings?" Think again. 
   
   
   
  Pigeons coo, peck and nest all over the world, yet most of us treat them with indifference or disdain. So Rosemary Mosco, a bird-lover, science communicator, writer, and cartoonist, is here to give the pigeon's image a makeover, and to help every town- and city-dweller get closer to nature by discovering the joys of birding through pigeon-watching.

  Peter Singer - Ethics in the...

  Peter Singer is one of the most influential philosophers in contemporary ethics, known for his contributions to utilitarianism, animal rights, global poverty, bioethics, and environmental ethics. His ethical philosophy is grounded in the principle of utilitarianism, which holds that the right course of action is the one that produces the greatest overall happiness or well-being. Singer’s work is characterized by a practical, results-oriented approach, focusing on how ethical principles can be applied to real-world issues to alleviate suffering and promote well-being. His influential works, such as Animal Liberation and The Life You Can Save, challenge readers to consider the moral implications of their actions in a variety of contexts, from how they treat animals to how they engage with global poverty. 
  At the core of Singer’s ethical framework is the idea that all sentient beings, regardless of their species, deserve equal consideration. This principle of equal consideration of interests leads to his advocacy for the rights of animals, arguing that their capacity to suffer should give them moral consideration equal to that of humans. Singer’s call for animal liberation challenges the traditional view of animals as resources for human consumption and urges society to rethink its treatment of non-human creatures. 
  In addition to his work in animal ethics, Singer has profoundly impacted discussions on global poverty and humanitarian aid. Through his concept of effective altruism, he argues that individuals in affluent societies have a moral obligation to help those in extreme poverty. Using the famous “drowning child” analogy, Singer demonstrates that if we are morally obligated to save a child from drowning in a shallow pond, we should equally be compelled to help those suffering from poverty and preventable diseases, no matter the physical distance.

The lively chorus of Pacific Chorus Frogs fills the air with bubbling calls, while a diverse ensemble of birds brings vibrant life to the soundscape—Pacific Wrens trill from hidden perches, American Robins sing with clear exuberance, Band-tailed Pigeons coo distantly, and tiny Golden-crowned Kinglets flit about with sharp calls. Hutton’s Vireos add subtle melody to the mix, all within a dynamic acoustic space that shifts with the breeze and water movement. This immersive recording captures the rich biodiversity of a thriving wetland habitat, offering listeners a peaceful escape into nature’s delicate symphony—perfect for relaxation, study, or reconnecting with the wild serenity of freshwater marshlands.

  In this book, you will learn about cannabis from its fundamental unit, in other words, what identifies it and gives it these important characteristics, making it a unique species, based on its genetic material or the information present in the plant's genes. This network of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid), controls all the processes of defense, nutrition, and communication of cannabis, and at the same time produces wonderful molecules such as phenylpropanoids, cannabinoids, and terpenes, which offer us important medicinal properties. 
  New sequencing technologies have allowed a deeper study of the Cannabis genome and thanks to this, more important proteins for the plant are now known, as well as the biological pathways where they act, allowing plant species to be genetically modified, providing great benefits for crops.  
  Additionally, genetic engineering is transforming agricultural techniques, being a useful alternative in monitoring the stages of cultivation, also, these advances are revolutionizing the understanding of pharmacogenetics, which is how our body assimilates cannabis-based medicines. 
  If you are interested in learning more about the extraordinary world of cannabis genetics, we invite you to enjoy this audiobook that Pharmacology University brings to you.
