Sinopse

"Ice Age Secrets" unveils the dramatic impact of past ice ages on Earth, revealing how cycles of freezing and thawing have shaped landscapes, influenced human evolution, and triggered significant climate shifts. Delving into glacial history, the book emphasizes the importance of understanding these past events to comprehend present-day climate change and its potential consequences. The formation of the Great Lakes and the existence of the Bering Land Bridge, which facilitated human migration, are just two examples of the lasting effects of these periods.

 
Exploring the Pleistocene epoch, the book presents evidence from geological records and ice core data to illustrate the scale and impact of glacial events. It traces the movement of early humans, highlighting how they adapted to changing environments and developed new technologies, such as hunting strategies and the use of fire. Furthermore, the book analyzes rapid climate shifts like Dansgaard-Oeschger events and the Younger Dryas, connecting them to current concerns about global warming and sea-level rise.

 
"Ice Age Secrets" adopts an interdisciplinary approach, linking Earth Sciences, World History, and Anthropology to provide a comprehensive understanding of Earth's glacial past. It begins by introducing fundamental concepts and then progresses to a detailed examination of specific ice age events. By synthesizing data from various scientific fields, the book offers a compelling narrative of our planet's history and humanity's place within it, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Earth history and climate change.

    "Quite simply this is an excellent book. It is well-written, with snatches of dry humour. It should be mandatory reading for anybody who keeps a dog or has intentions of so doing." —R. W. F. Poole, Daily Telegraph 
     
    How do dogs perceive the world about them? How do they see, hear, learn, relate to their owners? How large are their brains, what is their emotional makeup? Why do they suffer from stress and how can it be coped with?

Combining more than twenty years of practical experience as a veterinary clinician with a personal knowledge and understanding of the latest international research, Dr. Bruce Fogle has written the most inclusive and relevant book on how the canine mind works.
