Summary

"Animal Tricks" explores the pervasive role of deception in the animal kingdom, highlighting how trickery isn't just a quirky behavior, but a fundamental strategy for survival. From camouflage and mimicry to behavioral and cognitive deceit, the book delves into how these tactics have evolved through natural selection, shaping predator-prey relationships and ecological interactions. For instance, the octopus's ability to instantly change its skin color showcases the power of visual deception.

 
The book unfolds by first introducing the core concepts of animal deception and its various forms. It then explores camouflage and mimicry, behavioral deceit, and cognitive deception respectively, using case studies and empirical evidence to illustrate the principles at play. By examining numerous examples across diverse species, "Animal Tricks" reveals the darker side of survival, challenging conventional views of the natural world.

    There Is Life After the Nobel Prize

    One day in 1996, the neuroscientist Eric R. Kandel took a call from his program officer at the National Institute of Mental Health, who informed him that he had been awarded a key grant. Also, the officer said, he and his colleagues thought Kandel would win the Nobel Prize. "I hope not soon," Kandel's wife, Denise, said when she heard this. Sociologists had found that Nobel Prize winners often did not contribute much more to science, she explained. 
 
 
 
In this book, Kandel recounts his remarkable career since receiving the Nobel in 2000—or his experience of proving to his wife that he was not yet "completely dead intellectually." Kandel relates how the Nobel Prize gave him the opportunity to reach a far larger audience, which in turn allowed him to discover and pursue new directions. He describes his efforts to promote public understanding of science and to put brain science and art into conversation with each other. Kandel also discusses his return to Austria, which he had fled as a child, and observes Austria's coming to terms with the Nazi period. Showcasing Kandel's accomplishments, erudition, and wit, There Is Life After the Nobel Prize is a candid account of the working life of an acclaimed scientist.
