Sinopsis

Pea Plant Climbing explores the fascinating mechanics behind how pea plants ascend, focusing on tendril-based climbing. This book delves into the cellular and molecular mechanisms driving tendril movement and the biophysical principles that enable effective climbing. It argues that climbing isn't just a passive response, but an active process involving intricate feedback loops. Interestingly, the book reveals how hormones like auxin and ethylene play crucial roles in tendril movement.

 
The book begins by introducing tendril anatomy and function, then explores the cellular and molecular events powering movement, and finally transitions to the biophysical aspects of climbing, including attachment forces. Using microscopic imaging, biomechanical measurements, and original research data, the book provides a comprehensive, multi-scale perspective. This integration of molecular biology, plant biomechanics, and computational modeling is a unique aspect, making it valuable for those interested in plant biology, bio-inspired design, and adaptive materials.

 
Pea Plant Climbing not only provides a detailed account of climbing mechanisms, but also connects to materials science, robotics, and agriculture. For example, understanding tendril mechanics can inspire the design of soft robots. The book progresses logically, building from basic concepts to advanced analyses, making it accessible to advanced students and researchers alike.

    What we learn when an anthropologist and a historian talk about food. 
     
     
      
    From the origins of agriculture to contemporary debates over culinary authenticity, Ways of Eating introduces listeners to world food history and food anthropology. Through engaging stories and historical deep dives, Benjamin A. Wurgaft and Merry I. White offer new ways to understand food in relation to its natural and cultural histories and the social rules that shape our meals. 
     
     
      
    Wurgaft and White use vivid storytelling to bring food practices to life, weaving stories of Panamanian coffee growers, medieval women beer makers, and Japanese knife forgers. From the Venetian spice trade to the Columbian Exchange, from Roman garum to Vietnamese nuoc cham, Ways of Eating provides an absorbing account of world food history and anthropology. Migration, politics, and the dynamics of group identity all shape what we eat, and we can learn to trace these social forces from the plate to the kitchen, the factory, and the field.
