Synopsis

Desert Sound Survival explores the surprising world of acoustic adaptations in desert animals, revealing how crucial sound and vibration are for survival in seemingly silent landscapes. It examines the physics of sound propagation in deserts, highlighting how factors like temperature and sparse vegetation create unique challenges for animals relying on auditory cues. The book uncovers how creatures like the fennec fox use their large ears to detect faint sounds of prey underground, and how scorpions sense vibrations to evade predators, showcasing the intricate sensory biology at play. The book synthesizes research from animal behavior, acoustics, and sensory biology to demonstrate the rich tapestry of signals deserts actually possess. Starting with the basics of sound and vibration in these environments, it progresses to case studies of various animals and their specialized adaptations. Ultimately, Desert Sound Survival emphasizes the ecological implications of these adaptations, addressing the impact of noise pollution and the importance of conserving natural soundscapes for these specialized species.

    A “sweet indulgence for your mind, heart, and tastebuds”—now a major motion picture starring Yara Shahidi, Odessa A’zion, and Bette Midler (Molly Tarlov, MTV’s Awkward).   Meeting Mr. Right is never easy. And in a big city like Los Angeles, it’s even harder. So, after years of fruitless efforts at finding a soul mate, Audrey Shulman decided to take a different route to a man’s heart—through his sweet tooth. Whipping up a variety of sinfully delicious cakes, Audrey invaded the savage singles scene fully armed with butter, sugar, and frosting.  Sitting in Bars with Cake recounts Audrey’s year spent baking, bar-hopping, and offering slices of cake to men in the hope of finding a boyfriend (or, at the very least, a date).   With 35 inventive recipes, this charming book pairs each cake with a short essay and tongue-in-cheek lesson about picking up boys in bars.   “This delectable mix of encouragement, anecdote and cream-filling is more than enough reason to start baking and flirting.” —Winnie Holzman, creator of My So-Called Life   “This is a delightfully humble and enthralling tale about cake and bars and boys, but it’s really about life, and what it takes to get up every day and be the person you have always wanted to be.” —Tracy Moore, Jezebel

    The debut offering from one of the 20th century's most celebrated and renowned humorists, "Enough Rope" was an instant best-seller when it was released in 1926 and made Dorothy Parker a household name.  The poems in this collection range from the satiric to the sentimental; wickedly clever and yet elegantly and expertly constructed. Parker's mastery of the turn of phrase or the cynical or sardonic final line instantly grabbed the reading public's attention and propelled Parker into the national spotlight, which she would not relinquish for the rest of her life.  Dorothy Parker - social commentator, political reformer and legendary wit - has enjoyed a special place in American culture for almost a century and "Enough Rope" is an early example of Parker's unique and wry commentary on modern life. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format.
