Sinopse

Animal Architects unveils the astonishing construction capabilities found throughout the animal kingdom. From bird nests to beaver dams and even coral reefs, creatures exhibit remarkable engineering skills shaped by evolution. These constructions aren't just instinctive actions; they reflect sophisticated adaptations critical for survival and significantly influence ecosystem dynamics.

 
Discover how animals select and modify resources to build homes, showcasing ingenuity in structural design that impacts habitat creation and biodiversity. This book explores the materials and methods animals use, the functions of their constructions for survival and reproduction, and their broader ecological impact.

 
Structured in three parts, it begins with fundamental principles, progresses to specific examples grouped by construction type, and concludes with the ecological consequences of animal architecture. Through diverse data from field observations and biomechanical analyses, Animal Architects emphasizes the active role animals play in shaping their environments, challenging the notion that environmental modification is unique to humans.

The Book of Lies, or Liber 333, is a holy book in the Western occult tradition of Thelema, consisting of 91 short chapters of poems, aphorisms, rituals, and metaphysics.  This recording is of the original 1913 publication, and thus omits the further commentaries added by Crowley for subsequent additions.  Those familiar with Crowley’s hermetic writings will recognize his subversive and playful style.  Beneath the layers of symbolism, contradiction, and blasphemy lies a biting critique of the puritanical social, political, and religious values of the author’s generation. - Summary by P. J. Taylor

Water Harvesting 101 introduces you to: 
Passive Water Harvesting: This is the act of sculpting your land with basins, berms, and drainage swales. The goal? To channel rainwater toward plants and away from structures – like your house. Passive water-harvesting earthworks eliminate the need for landscape irrigation connected to municipal water systems. In arid regions, that spells substantial cost savings. 
Active Water Harvesting: Want fresh garden produce when it’s 105 degrees out? And it hasn’t rained in six weeks? At my place, the 1,500-gallon rainwater harvesting cistern makes year ‘round gardening possible. And, on wash day, I don’t let the wastewater go down the drain. Instead, I use a greywater harvesting system that effortlessly diverts that wastewater from the laundry to my four fruit trees.
