Key Ideas on Randomness

Introbooks Team

Summary

How many people think about this idea that whatever they have achieved in their lives can be partly because of the random events that just happened to be in favor of them? Not a lot. The thing is, people are yet to accept that a big part of their lives is governed by one or a few random factors at a time. And the nature of those random factors could be different in any situation. That is why it is very important to understand the implications and methodologies of randomness.How exactly that randomness works? All the answers are here.There is a possibility of different things that can happen at different times. But why does one thing that happens over-powers everything else that could have happened? Even all the accumulated wealth and riches of the people could be due to the presence of good luck in their lives.

Candid Creatures - How Camera...

Roland Kays

A riveting collection of photographs capturing wild animals in their native habitats and demonstrating the importance of camera traps.

In Candid Creatures, the first major book to reveal the secret lives of animals through motion-sensitive game cameras, biologist Roland Kays has assembled over 600remarkable photographs. Drawing from archives of millions of color and night-vision photographs collected by hundreds of researchers, Kays has selected images that show the unique perspectives of wildlife from throughout the world. Using these photos, he tells the stories of scientific discoveries that camera traps have enabled, such as living proof of species thought to have been extinct and details of predator-prey interactions.

Each image captures a moment frozen in the camera’s flash as animals move through their wild habitats. Kays also discusses how scientists use camera traps to address conservation issues, creating solutions that allow humans and wild animals to coexist. More than just a collection of amazing animal pictures, the book’s text, maps, and illustrations work together to describe the latest findings in the fast-moving field of wildlife research.

Candid Creatures is a testament to how the explosion of game cameras around the world has revolutionized the study of animal ecology. The powerful combination of pictures and stories of discovery will fascinate anyone interested in science, nature, wildlife biology, or photography.

“Full of fabulous pictures of weird and wonderful creatures . . . [Candid Creatures is] loaded with information and carries a strong conservation message.” —Conservation Biology

There's something magical about towering conifers and multiple layers of ferns, shrubs and mosses. And even more so when you hear rain drops gently falling over these green surfaces. And every now and then a few shy birds whistle their melodious tunes. Varied Thrushes are particularly enigmatic in this abundance of peace and quietitude.  This recording will set a perfect background for relaxation, meditation or quiet office work.

A Natural State - Essays on Texas

Stephen Harrigan

“The personal essay at its best. What Edward Abbey did for the desert Southwest and what E. B. White did for Maine, Harrigan has done for Texas.” —Houston Chronicle In this remarkable collection of essays, Stephen Harrigan explores, with an unfailing depth of feeling, the human longing to feel at home in the world of nature. In vivid and convincing prose, he evokes the landscape of his home territory, Texas, and his own reactions, sometimes droll, sometimes haunted, to the extraordinary power of place that Texas projects. “Like our best nature writers, he tells us not only what’s out there, but connects it to our everyday lives . . . A Natural State is recommended reading not just for Texans but for all who would explore their connections to the natural world.” —The Washington Post “While ‘luminous’ is not a word that you would think of in connection with the Lone Star State, that’s what these pieces are . . . They are filled with poetry, wit, and delightfully offbeat observations.” —The San Diego Union-Tribune “Harrigan defty weaves fact, historical perspective, and personal experience into a tightly interlaced evocative fabric . . . By the end of the book, he brings the vast Texas landscape within grasp of even the most skeptical reader.” —The Denver Post “Harrigan’s observations are not those of an academically trained naturalist but rather the fresh outlook of a city-bred tourist rejoicing in the exhilaration of discovery.” —Booklist “Though several of the essays display a strong ecological bent, the author is never shrill. He is an accomplished prose stylist who combines accurate research with an unerring eye for detail. Highly recommended.” —Science

Peaceful Breeze

Mark Carrington

Caring for someone you love who is suffering from a terminal illness can be one of the greatest honours in life. Helping a loved one to die with peace, grace and dignity is their human right and a privilege for their carer to enable. It can be a truly transformative experience.

In Peaceful Breeze Mark Carrington shares his searingly honest account of nursing his much-loved mother after she was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2014.

As his mum's son, carer and advocate, Mark felt alone and under tremendous pressure to look after her the best he could; at the time, he wished that there was a practical guide to support him as he was supporting his mum.

Peaceful Breeze is Mark's profound journey through terminal illness; from his mum's initial diagnoses, through her valiant fight, to her ultimate passing. He charts the emotional turmoil - from complete despair to moments of joy with his mum that will live on forever - the stress, the difficult decisions he had to make and finally the all-consuming grief he experienced at her loss.

Mark Carrington story is one of bravery, devotion, love and hope, one which he hopes will support and inform other carers as they nurse and cherish their own family and friends.
