Beschreibung

"Aurora Lights" unveils the science behind the mesmerizing aurora borealis and australis, commonly known as the northern and southern lights. It explores the phenomenon as more than just a visual spectacle, revealing how auroras offer insights into the dynamic relationship between the Sun and Earth. For instance, the vibrant colors are produced when energetic particles from the sun collide with atmospheric gases in the ionosphere. Understanding these lights is crucial, as it helps us predict and mitigate the impact of space weather on our technology and infrastructure. 

 
The book progresses from the Sun's role in initiating auroral activity, through the Earth's magnetosphere interaction with the solar wind, to the atmospheric processes where the lights are generated. It presents complex concepts like the solar wind and magnetosphere in an accessible manner. Drawing on data from space-based observatories, "Aurora Lights" presents a holistic view, connecting space physics, atmospheric science, and even cultural astronomy. This interdisciplinary approach enriches the reader's understanding, making it a valuable read for anyone interested in nature, science, and the wonders of our planet.

    Late nineteenth-century naturalist William J. Long invites us in to the secret worlds of the woodland animals. Containing Long's own animal observations along with stories related to him by other humans who inhabit the woods, these stories give us an insight into the behavior of wild animals as they go about their lives in their own secret places deep in the forests of eastern North America. Although Long was accused in his day of anthropomorphizing the animals he wrote about, readers who are familiar with any of the animals he writes of will have glimpses of recognition at behaviors they have seen for themselves and explore the deeper meanings these actions have in that animal's life. The stories will paint pictures in your imagination that will stay with you long after the book has ended. (Summary by Jill Engle.)

    A classic of travel writing, this book recounts Stevenson's adventures on an extended walk through uplands and mountains in south-western France. Humorous on his own failings as a traveller, and on his travails with Modestine the self-willed donkey, it is also an exploration of peasant life in an area marked by the violence of the wars of religion. This version includes the fragment "A mountain town in France", originally intended as the opening chapter, but often omitted and published as a separate essay. (Summary by Patrick Wallace)

    This short paper on logic argues that logic and science can go hand in hand, and that, by taking observations of perceptions and sensations, and applying logical analysis to them, you have the power to build conceptual models and frameworks that you can use in order to predict what you should do in the future and to reason how to solve the problems in your life. Examples from hard science, and examples of the use of science and logic in the courtroom to understand legal arguments, are presented, as well examples of how to figure out the answers to the mundane ordinary problems that we humans have in our lives. 
    Mandatory must-read for anyone who wants to think and live using logic.

    ‘Rarely is a non-fiction book about science this engaging’ – Forbes 
    Why darkness is so important – to plants, to animals, and to ourselves – and why we must protect it all costs. 
    Darkness is the first thing we know in our human existence. Safe and warm inside the bubble of the womb, we are comfortable in that embracing dark. But as soon as we are bought into the light, we learn to fear the dark. Why? 
    This book is a celebration of all things that go bump in the night and the joy that can be found when the sun goes down. As a society we have closed our curtains to the darkness, now Dani Robertson urges you to cast those curtains wide, step out of your front door and let the darkness pull you in. 
    Some 99 per cent of Western Europeans live under light polluted skies, but what is this doing to our health? Our wellbeing? Our connection to the cycles of nature? 
    Our wildlife, too, has been cast into the harsh glare of our light addiction, with devastating impacts. 
    In this book Dani shares with you the excitement and adventure she has found when everyone else is tucked up in bed. She explores constellations and cultures, enjoys environmental escapades, all whilst learning why we are addicted to light and why it is ruining our lives. She’ll show you why the darkness is so important and why we must protect it all costs. You’ll become a crusader of Darkness and an expert on what we can do to stop the onward march of light pollution (clue: it’s as easy as the flick of a switch). 
    Her life depends on darkness, and yours does too. 
    Dani Robertson's All Through The Night is a non-fiction exploration of the importance of darkness in our ecosystems. It's a journey through the wilderness of the night sky, touching on topics of astronomy, ecology, and conservation. This bestseller is a call to action for the protection of our habitats from light pollution. 
    For fans of John Lewis-Stempel (England), Katherine May (Enchantment), Robin Wall Kimmerer (Gathering Moss), Matt Haig (The Comfort Book), and Derek Gow (Birds, Beasts and Bedlam).
