Dog Bond Secrets

Nikolai Hansen

Summary

'Dog Bond Secrets' delves into the fascinating 40,000-year evolutionary partnership between humans and dogs, presenting cutting-edge scientific research that illuminates the biological, neurochemical, and behavioral foundations of this unique interspecies relationship.

 
The book expertly weaves together findings from evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and comparative psychology to demonstrate how dogs have developed remarkable abilities to understand human emotions and social cues, supported by compelling evidence from MRI studies showing similar brain activation patterns in both species during emotional interactions.

 
Through a well-structured exploration spanning three main sections, the book begins with the evolutionary timeline of dog domestication, progresses through the biological mechanisms of bonding, and concludes with practical applications for strengthening human-dog relationships. Notable discoveries include genetic analyses revealing parallel evolutionary adaptations and behavioral experiments demonstrating dogs' exceptional capacity for understanding human gestures.

 
The text maintains accessibility while tackling complex concepts, making it valuable for both academic readers and general dog enthusiasts. The book stands out for its comprehensive integration of multiple scientific disciplines and its use of cutting-edge research methodologies, including neuroimaging and genetic analysis.

 
By combining rigorous scientific evidence with practical applications for dog training and human-animal interaction, it offers readers a deeper understanding of the measurable ways this remarkable partnership has evolved. Whether for professional animal behaviorists or curious dog owners, the book provides evidence-based insights into strengthening the bonds between humans and their canine companions.

Wild Waters - The Magic of...

Richard Nairn

'I often sit by the bank of the small river that flows through our farm in County Wicklow, fascinated by its many moods ... Getting to know a river is like reading the story of a person's life ...  from its young energetic stages in the hills to the slower-moving mature river, through to the tranquil water of lakes and finally to its resting place in the sea.'
Richard Nairn is an ecologist who has been visiting waterways around Ireland for over half a century, fascinated by how they sustain and enrich our lives. Here he sets out on a year-long adventure to explore every stretch and tributary of the Avonmore River, which runs through Co. Wicklow. From source to sea, he immerses himself in the wildlife, archaeology, history and people connected to the river. Travelling to explore more of Ireland's rivers, lakes, wet woodlands, ponds and canals, Richard details encounters with dragonflies, crayfish, otters and great flocks of migratory waterbirds, and finds himself awestruck by the sense of a lost wilderness they convey.
With our waterways now under serious threat, this is a love letter to Ireland's rivers and lakes, and a reminder of what we stand to lose.
'Opens the window into a watery world. Personal yet panoramic.' Colin Stafford-Johnson, filmmaker.

Nora Ephron at the Movies - A...

Ilana Kaplan, Jason Diamond

The first monograph on writer, journalist, and director Nora Ephron, the visionary behind When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, and You’ve Got Mail 
 
Nora Ephron at the Movies offers an unfiltered look at Ephron as a champion of the rom-com and as a feminist Hollywood trailblazer. It explores her life and work by pairing detailed criticism with exclusive interviews with Ephron’s key collaborators, including Andie MacDowell and Jenn Kaytin Robinson, to add color and nuance to her life and legacy. 
 
With her singular voice, Nora Ephron flourished as a dominant force in the entertainment industry, focusing on the idiosyncrasies of romance that were universally relatable. 
 
The women in her stories paralleled reality—the veil was lifted, the glossy sheen removed.  
 
Her protagonists share an unwavering sense of humor about life’s mishaps, and they never take themselves too seriously—like Julie trying to master the art of cooking lobsters in Julie & Julia, Sally’s theatrical fake orgasm in Katz’s deli in When Harry Met Sally, or Rachel perfecting a key lime pie only to throw it in her cheating husband’s face in Heartburn. 
 
Through her keenly self-aware humor and semi-autobiographical stories, Ephron left behind a groundbreaking legacy as a beloved journalist, essayist, screenwriter, author, producer, director, and feminist who delivered stories of resilience embedded in sharp wit and upper-crust landscapes. Through that lens, she became emblematic of rom-coms, shifting and redefining conversations around the complexities of relationships and the women who have them.

Exploring the Britannic - The...

Simon Mills

A revelatory and wide-ranging exploration of HMS Britannic—her life at sea and on the seabed—by the owner of her wreck. 
 
 
 
Launched in 1914, two years after the ill-fated voyage of her sister ship, RMS Titanic, the Britannic was intended to be superior to her tragic twin in every way. But war intervened and in 1915 she was requisitioned as a hospital ship. Just one year later, while on her way to collect troops wounded in the Balkans campaign, she fell victim to a mine laid by a German U-boat and tragically sank in the middle of the Aegean Sea. 
 
 
 
There her wreck lay, at a depth of 400 feet, until it was discovered fifty-nine years later by legendary explorer Jacques Cousteau. In 1996 the wreck was bought by the author of this book, Simon Mills. 
 
 
 
Exploring the Britannic tells the complete story of this enigmatic ship: her construction, launch and life, her fateful last voyage, and the historical findings resulting from the exploration of the well-preserved wreck over a period of forty years. This book finally details how the mysteries surrounding the 100-year-old enigma were laid to rest, and what the future might also hold for her.
