Sinossi

Snake Facts offers a comprehensive look into the world of venomous snakes, exploring their hunting strategies, sensory mechanisms, and the evolution of venom. These creatures possess sophisticated adaptations, like infrared vision for detecting prey and varied venom compositions tailored for specific environments. The book provides insights into snake biology, behavior, and ecological significance. The book uniquely integrates scientific findings with accessible explanations, avoiding sensationalism while presenting a balanced account. Did you know that snake venom has contributed to the development of various drugs? Or that understanding snake behavior is vital for effective conservation? Snake Facts emphasizes the intricate relationship between venom, hunting strategies, and sensory perception in the snakes' survival.

 
The book progresses through three sections, beginning with an introduction to the diversity and evolution of venomous snakes. It then delves into the biochemical composition and delivery systems of venom, followed by an exploration of their sensory capabilities, including vibration detection and chemoreception. It culminates in a discussion of their ecological roles and conservation challenges.

    The story behind Notebook starts with a minor crime: the theft of Tom Cox's rucksack from a Bristol pub in 2018. In that rucksack was a journal containing ten months' worth of notes, one of the many Tom has used to record his thoughts and observations over the past twelve years. It wasn't the best he had ever kept – his handwriting was messier than in his previous notebook, his entries more sporadic – but he still grieved for every one of the hundred or so lost pages. This incident made Tom appreciate how much notebook-keeping means to him: the act of putting pen to paper has always led him to write with an unvarnished, spur-of-the-moment honesty that he wouldn't achieve on-screen.
    Here, Tom has assembled his favourite stories, fragments, moments and ideas from those notebooks, ranging from memories of his childhood to the revelation that 'There are two types of people in the world. People who fucking love maps, and people who don't.' The result is a book redolent of the real stuff of life, shot through with Cox's trademark warmth and wit.

    Quilters inevitably have short lengths of full fabric widths as well as smaller leftover pieces from creating countless projects. The beauty is those scrap pieces can be tamed for re-use! Author, SusanClaire Mayfield has created an organizational model for that quilting fabric that she shares in her book Quilter's Scrap Pantry: The Grab-and-Go Approach to Organizing Your Scraps and Making Beautiful Quilts. SusanClaire's current students have found that scraps suddenly become so much more tempting to work with after they have set up what she calls her "Leftovers Pantry." When scraps are intentionally organized and stored, they no longer find themselves digging through piles of mismatched yardage. Once stocked, they can easily create the quilt blocks described in this book such as 4-patches, 9-patches, rectangles, half-square triangles, Flying Geese and Snowballs. SusanClaire walks quilters through setting up a pantry, piece by piece, and what to do with larger fabric yardage stacks. As a bonus, she links her organizational content to her YouTube videos for each section and includes additional tips for thrifty quilting. It's scrap organization for patchwork gratification!
