Sinopse

Mercury in Seafood unravels the complexities of mercury contamination in our food supply, focusing on the health risks associated with fish consumption. It highlights how industrial pollution and natural processes lead to mercury accumulation in aquatic ecosystems, transforming into methylmercury, which concentrates in larger fish. Understanding this process is crucial, as mercury exposure can lead to neurological and developmental issues, emphasizing the need for informed dietary choices. The book uniquely balances the nutritional benefits of seafood, such as omega-3 fatty acids, against the potential dangers of mercury poisoning.

 
The book begins by explaining the fundamentals of mercury chemistry and its journey through the environment. It then moves into the science of bioaccumulation, illustrating how mercury levels increase up the food chain. Subsequent chapters explore the health effects of methylmercury exposure, supported by research, and provide a guide to safer seafood selections. By presenting scientific data in an accessible way, Mercury in Seafood empowers readers to make informed decisions, understand government advisories, and appreciate the role of sustainable fishing.

Feminism in the Wild - How Human...

Melina Packer, Ambika Kamath

In Feminism in the Wild, Ambika Kamath and Melina Packer reveal how scientists studying animal behavior have long projected human norms and values onto animals while seeking to understand them. When scientific studies conclude that these norms and values are natural in animals, it makes it easier to think of them as natural in humans too. And because scientists, historically and to this day, largely belong to elite, powerful segments of society, the norms and values embedded into animal behavior science match those of the already powerful. How can animal behavior science escape this trap of naturalizing dominant culture? 
 
 
 
Drawing from decades of feminist, antiracist, queer, disability justice, and Marxist contributions—including those of biologists—Kamath and Packer break down persistent assumptions in the status quo of animal behavior science and offer a multitude of alternative approaches. Core concepts in animal behavior science and evolutionary biology are carefully contextualized and critically reexamined. This unique collaboration between an animal behavior scientist and a feminist science studies scholar is an illuminating and hopeful book for anyone who is curious about how animals behave, and anyone who wants to break free from scientific approaches that perpetuate systems of oppression.

A Dumb Birds Field Guide to the...

Matt Kracht

We can all agree—birds are terrible. They're stupid and won't shut up. 
 
 
 
Featuring fifty of the absolute worst birds to fly the earth, Kracht identifies each of their most terrible qualities, details exactly why they suck, and shows you why. Including all-new, all-worst fowl, such as: the absolute waste of feathers Cruddy Turdstone (Ruddy Turnstone), the utter a-hole Blank Staring-Eyes Flycrapper (Black Paradise Flycatcher), the outright loser Dowdy Woodfucker (Downy Woodpecker), and many more! 
 
 
 
Even the author's previous bird takedown guides are no preparation for this hilariously harrowing collection of squawking, conceited, trash-eating, and even murderous idiots. The horror. The horror . . . 
 
 
 
LOVE BIRDS? HATE BIRDS?: For those who hate birds and for bird lovers everywhere with a sense of humor, this handbook is equal parts profane and funny, and—let's face it—true. 
 
 
 
ENTERTAINING AND EDUCATIONAL: This uproarious guide to all things wings includes tips for bird identification, musings on the avian population and classification, and more. Plus, each entry is accompanied by facts about a bird's (annoying) call, its (dumb) migratory pattern, its (downright tacky) markings, and more.
