Sinopse

"Bear Nose Power" explores the remarkable olfactory world of bears, creatures whose sense of smell dwarfs our own. Delving into the science behind this superpower, the book uncovers how bears use scent to navigate vast territories, locate scarce food, and even identify mates. With a nasal mucosa area seven times larger than humans, bears possess an extraordinary ability to detect and discriminate a wide array of odors, making olfaction a cornerstone of their survival.

 
The book examines the anatomy and physiology of the bear olfactory system, its crucial role in bear behavior and ecology, and potential applications for human endeavors. It progresses from detailing the bear nose's unique structure and identifying specific olfactory receptor genes to exploring how scent governs foraging, social interactions, and reproduction.

 
Ultimately, "Bear Nose Power" argues that understanding this specialized sense is vital for effective bear conservation and can inspire advancements in human scent detection technologies, offering a comprehensive look at bear olfaction from genetic, ecological, and technological perspectives.

    On February 15, 2015, Kate Matrosova, an avid mountaineer, set off before sunrise for a traverse of the Northern Presidential Range in New Hampshire's White Mountains. Late the following day, rescuers carried her frozen body out of the mountains amid some of the worst weather ever recorded on these deceptively rugged slopes. 
     
     
     
    At thirty-two, Matrosova was ultra-fit and healthy and had already summited much larger mountains on several continents. Her gear included a rescue beacon and a satellite phone. Yet, despite their best efforts, more than forty expert search and rescue personnel, a New Hampshire Army National Guard Blackhawk helicopter, and a Civil Air Patrol Cessna airplane could not reach her in time to save her. 
     
     
     
    What went wrong? 
     
     
     
    Where You'll Find Me offers possible answers to that question, demonstrating why Matrosova's story—what we know and what we will never know—represents such an intriguing and informative case study in risk analysis and decision-making.

    The ocean is the last remaining source of profound mystery and discovery on Earth. With eighty percent of it still largely unexplored, it is endlessly fascinating.  
     
    In Kraken: The Curious, Exciting, and Slightly Disturbing Science of Squid, journalist Wendy Williams introduces one of the ocean’s most charismatic, monstrous, and enigmatic inhabitants: the squid. More than just calamari, squid species are fascinatingly odd creatures, with much to teach us about our own species.  
     
    Williams examines it all, from the enormous beast that is the giant squid, which is quick to attack sperm whales, submarines, and boats, to the octopus and the cuttlefish, and explores their otherworldly abilities, such as camouflage and bioluminescence. Kraken takes the reader on a wild ride through the world of  
    squid science and adventure, along the way answering some riddles about how the human brain works, what intelligence really is, and what monsters lie in the deep.
