Beschreibung

In "Pleistocene Bats from San Josecito Cave, Nuevo Leon, Mexico," J. Knox Jones presents a meticulous examination of the paleontological remains of bats discovered in one of Mexico's significant archaeological sites. The book employs a detailed and methodical scientific approach, emphasizing the interplay between paleoecology and the climatological conditions of the Pleistocene epoch. With rich illustrations and thorough taxonomic assessments, Jones contextualizes the findings within contemporary debates on biodiversity and conservation, enriching the discourse surrounding extinct species and their ecosystems. J. Knox Jones, an esteemed paleontologist with extensive fieldwork in bat ecology, brings a wealth of expertise and passion to this work. His academic background, enriched by years of research in bat morphology and systematics, has profoundly influenced his interest in the evolutionary narratives of these fascinating creatures. Jones's previous works laid the groundwork for this comprehensive study, reflecting his desire to illuminate the critical role of bats in ancient ecosystems and their significant implications for modern conservation efforts. This book is essential for scholars, conservationists, and anyone interested in the intersection of paleontology and ecology. Jones's compelling arguments and meticulous research serve as a crucial resource in understanding the complex history of biodiversity in Mexico, making it a pivotal addition to the field of vertebrate paleontology.

    Call of the Kingfisher is the enchanting debut from composer and wildlife recordist Nick Penny. This love letter to a short stretch of Northamptonshire's River Nene celebrates all the wild things that live there, especially the kingfishers. Nick has walked beside the river at Oundle for four decades. But for a whole year he gave the waterway all the time it asked for. The more attention he gave it, the more he saw the kingfishers and heard their high whistling calls. Set in a lovely but little-known part of England, Call of the Kingfisher relates a year by the river, the author's experiences there and the different people he meets. Other strands are woven around the elusive feathered protagonist: explorations of local history and landscape, from Roman and Bronze Age sites to watermills and centuries-old stone churches; visits at different times and to different places in the valley; homages to naturalists who lived nearby; forest dawns and dusks listening to the precious song of nightingales. But the background tapestry is the sights and sounds, and greens and browns, of the riverbank, shot through with the blue and orange threads of a kingfisher's glowing feathers.As a composer and wildlife recordist, Nick has a deep interest in sounds in the natural environment. He uses the local landscape and wildlife sounds as inspiration, and brings fresh insights into the sounds of the countryside. The book includes access to a number of high-quality birdsong recordings made alongside the River Nene - audio soundbites of nature's riches, from kingfishers and nightingales to owls and cuckoos. This is a book about the things that can be seen and heard when we approach nature with patience and curiosity. It celebrates people who have used that focus to help preserve wildlife and pass on their knowledge to future generations. Above all, Call of the Kingfisher serves as a call to appreciate what we've got, wherever we are, and to use our ears as much as our eyes when we experience the natural world.

    Axiology, the branch of philosophy that studies the nature of values, plays a crucial role in understanding human beliefs, decisions, and behaviors. This chapter introduces the concept of axiology, emphasizing its importance in ethics and how it influences not just personal conduct but also societal norms and expectations. At its core, axiology is concerned with two primary components: value theory and the study of ethics. These two areas work in tandem, guiding individuals in understanding what is good, right, or desirable, and shaping their actions accordingly. 
    The term "axiology" comes from the Greek words "axios," meaning value, and "logos," meaning study or discourse. Axiology thus represents the study of values in the most comprehensive sense, ranging from personal preferences to the collective ethical standards that govern entire societies. The study of values is fundamental to various fields such as ethics, psychology, politics, and education, providing a framework for determining what is valuable in different contexts. Values themselves can take many forms, including moral values, aesthetic values, social values, and economic values, each influencing behavior in unique ways. 
    Understanding values is essential because they serve as the foundation upon which we build our beliefs, attitudes, and actions. From an individual perspective, values guide the decisions we make daily—whether in choosing a career, deciding what is right or wrong, or determining what we prioritize in life.

    This book chronicles the creation of Everglades National Park, the largest subtropical wilderness in the United States. Prior to the park's creation, the Everglades was seen as a reviled and useless swamp, unfit for typical recreational or development projects. 
     
     
     
    Park advocates drew on new ideas concerning the value of biota and ecology, the importance of wilderness, and the need to protect habitats, marine ecosystems, and plant life to redefine the Everglades. Using these ideas, the Everglades began to be recognized as an ecologically valuable and fragile wetland—and thus a region in need of protective status. 
     
     
     
    While these new ideas foreshadowed the later emergence of modern environmentalism, tourism and the economic desires of Florida's business and political elites also impacted the park's future. These groups saw the Everglades' unique biology and ecology as a foundation on which to build a tourism empire. 
     
     
     
    Yet, even after the park's creation, conservative landowners successfully fought to limit the park and saw it as a threat to their own economic freedoms. The battle to save the swamp's biodiversity continues, and Everglades Park stands at the center of ongoing restoration efforts.
