Summary

"Basic Track Reading" offers a comprehensive guide to understanding the often-overlooked stories written in animal tracks and signs. It delves into track identification, teaching readers to precisely recognize footprints and patterns, and sign interpretation, which includes analyzing scat and habitat modifications. This book provides a non-invasive method for understanding wildlife behavior and ecological interactions, valuable for anyone interested in nature observation, field biology, or wildlife management.

 
Did you know that tracking skills have long been essential to indigenous cultures and are still vital in modern conservation efforts? The book takes a systematic approach, starting with the basics of track morphology, such as shape and size, before moving onto gaits and patterns. Detailed chapters cover the tracks of common North American mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians, equipped with illustrations and measurements to aid in identification.

 
Progressing chapter by chapter, the book culminates in a section on interpreting animal behavior from these clues, enabling readers to reconstruct events and understand animal interactions within their environment. Through observation, measurement, and contextual analysis, "Basic Track Reading" makes the art of tracking accessible to beginners and enriching for experienced trackers alike.

    As interesting as the stories about Tycho Brahe are, chances are he wouldn’t be remembered if not for the important work he did, especially in the realm of astronomy. He lived in an era when the intellectual worldview of most in northern Europe was medieval in nature, influenced mostly by spirituality, mysticism, religion, and metaphysics. Brahe, however, was far-thinking in his outlook, taking advantages of the latest technological ideas and practicing empiricism to revolutionize the field of science. This work eventually led Brahe to cross paths with Johannes Kepler, whose laws on planetary motion would change everything.  
    Trying to define a man who had the qualities of a mathematician, astronomer, philosopher, inventor, and astrologer can prove difficult. But all of that can be ascribed to Johannes Kepler, one of the giants of his era who ushered in the Scientific Revolution and is often considered the first modern scientist. Kepler stood at a moment in time when the intellectual worldview of most in northern Europe was medieval in nature. Kepler, however, was far-thinking in his outlook. 
    	In his lifetime, Galileo straddled the epochs of the Renaissance and the Scientific Revolution, and it was his work and technological advances that helped usher in a brand new understanding of the solar system and the scientific method. Stephen Hawking himself has asserted, “Galileo, perhaps more than any other single person, was responsible for the birth of modern science." Of course, part of what made Galileo such a monumental figure was the fact that he was ahead of his time, and that he mostly refused to conform to the accepted dogmas of contemporary society.  
    In 1676, Sir Isaac Newton wrote in a letter, “If I have seen further it is by standing on ye sholders of Giants.” By the time he died, Newton had become science’s greatest giant, and every scientist who has followed him has stood on his shoulders.

    The Safety Anarchist - Relying...

    Work has never been as safe as it seems today. Safety has also never been as bureaucratized as it is today. Over the past two decades, the number of safety rules and statutes has exploded, and organizations themselves are creating ever more internal compliance requirements. At the same time, progress on safety has slowed to a crawl. Many incident- and injury rates have flatlined. Worse, excellent safety performance on low-consequence events tends to increase the risk of fatalities and disasters. Bureaucracy and compliance now seem less about managing the safety of the workers we are responsible for, and more about managing the liability of the people they work for. We make workers do a lot that does nothing to improve their success locally. Paradoxically, such tightening of safety bureaucracy robs us of exactly the source of human insight, creativity and resilience that can tell us how success is actually created, and where the next accident may well happen. 
    It is time for Safety Anarchists: people who trust people more than process, who rely on horizontally coordinating experiences and innovations, who push back against petty rules and coercive compliance, and who help recover the dignity and expertise of human work.
