  How Forests Think - Toward an...

  Can forests think? Do dogs dream? In this astonishing book, Eduardo Kohn challenges the very foundations of anthropology, calling into question our central assumptions about what it means to be human—and thus distinct from all other life forms. Based on four years of fieldwork among the Runa of Ecuador's Upper Amazon, Kohn draws on his rich ethnography to explore how Amazonians interact with the many creatures that inhabit one of the world's most complex ecosystems.Whether or not we recognize it, our anthropological tools hinge on those capacities that make us distinctly human. However, when we turn our ethnographic attention to how we relate to other kinds of beings, these tools (which have the effect of divorcing us from the rest of the world) break down. How Forests Think seizes on this breakdown as an opportunity. Avoiding reductionistic solutions, and without losing sight of how our lives and those of others are caught up in the moral webs we humans spin, this book skillfully fashions new kinds of conceptual tools from the strange and unexpected properties of the living world itself. In this groundbreaking work, Kohn takes anthropology in a new and exciting direction—one that offers a more capacious way to think about the world we share with other kinds of beings.

  Kids DNA Book

  Genes, although tiny and imperceptible, play a pivotal role in shaping our physical characteristics, unless modified by medical intervention. Originating from the first man and woman, genes come in various types, with Y-Chromosomes and mtdna being extensively studied by geneticists. Y-DNA is inherited exclusively from fathers to sons, perpetuating through generations of male lineage, while mtdna is passed from mothers to all their offspring, albeit only daughters can transmit it further.The classification of Y-DNA and mtdna into letters helps delineate the genetic relationships across different populations and regions. However, these genetic markers often exhibit a mosaic distribution due to intermarriages, conflicts, and migrations throughout history. Despite these diversifications, humanity remains fundamentally linked to its ancestral roots, with distant connections to the original progenitors persisting through millennia of genetic mingling. Thus, while genetic variations have enriched our species over time, our collective genetic heritage underscores the profound interconnectedness among human populations worldwide.

  Mapping the Great Game -...

  In the 19th century, the British and Russian empires were engaged in bitter rivalry for the acquisition of Southern Asian. Although India was the ultimate prize, most of the intrigue and action took place along its northern frontier in Afghanistan, Turkestan, and Tibet. Mapping the region and gaining knowledge of the enemy were crucial to the interests of both sides.The Great Trigonometrical Survey of India began in the eighteenth century with the aim of creating a detailed map of the subcontinent. Under the leadership of George Everest—whose name was later bestowed to the world's tallest mountain—it mapped the Great Arc running from the country's southern tip to the Himalayas. Much of the work was done by Indian explorers known as Pundits. They were the first to reveal the mysteries of the forbidden city of Lhasa, and discover the true course of Tibet's mighty Tsangpo River.These explorers performed essential information gathering for the British Empire and filled in large portions of the map of Asia. Their adventurous exploits are vividly recounted in Mapping the Great Game.
