Aging And Senses

Summary

Aging and Senses explores the changes in sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch as we age, revealing how these sensory shifts influence our lives. It highlights how sensory decline, often underestimated, significantly impacts our well-being and independence as we get older. Interestingly, sensory changes aren't just about physical decline; they also affect cognitive function, emotional health, and social interactions.

 
The book starts by explaining how each sense functions in early adulthood, then details specific age-related changes, such as presbycusis (age-related hearing loss) and changes in taste and smell. It argues that while some sensory decline is inevitable, lifestyle choices and interventions can make a real difference.

 
The book emphasizes that we can actively engage in maintaining our sensory health, providing evidence-based strategies like dietary recommendations, exercise, sensory training, and assistive technologies to mitigate sensory decline. It's designed for older adults, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and anyone interested in gerontology and sensory science.

The Honey Trap - How the Good...

Dana L. Church

The last decade has seen an explosion of urban beekeeping in the US, Canada, and Europe, a well-intentioned response to perceived threats to the global honey bee population. Many thousands of people have taken up this seemingly environmentally friendly hobby, tending backyard and rooftop hives (or paying a company to do so) and encouraging honey bees to make honey and pollinate flowers. What could be wrong with that? 
 
 
 
Quite a lot, in fact. In The Honey Trap, scientist and author Dana Church demonstrates that despite reports to the contrary, honey bees are nowhere near extinction. Rather, their nurturing by urban beekeepers is having far-reaching and potentially devastating consequences for the 19,999 other species of bees on the planet, with knock-on effects for plants, both cultivated and wild, and our ecosystems more generally. 
 
 
 
With engaging storytelling and a wealth of knowledge about bees and their ways, Church unravels the complexities of human interactions with our winged friends and demonstrates how dangerously selfish our thinking can be. It's a wake-up call for humanity to embrace sustainable practices and protect these vital pollinators before it's too late.
