Sinopsis

Giraffe Height Advantage explores how giraffes use their towering height as a crucial survival tool in the African savanna. The book examines the evolutionary adaptations that allow giraffes to thrive, focusing on how their height and long-distance vision aid in predator detection. Interestingly, a giraffe's height isn't just a physical trait; it's a sophisticated evolutionary advantage that significantly enhances their ability to spot threats, reducing predation and boosting survival.

 
The book begins by laying out the anatomical and physiological foundations that support a giraffe's immense stature, such as their unique skeletal structure and cardiovascular system. Progressing through the chapters, the narrative delves into the mechanics and advantages of their long-distance vision, the ecological impacts of their height on resource competition, and the social dynamics within giraffe populations. The book adopts a fact-based approach, presenting information in an accessible manner, making it suitable for both students and general readers interested in wildlife, natural history, and evolutionary biology.

    From breasts and orgasms to periods, pregnancies, and menopause—A Brief History of the Female Body is a fascinating science book explaining the mysteries of the female body through an evolutionary lens. 
     
     
     
    Let's face it: The female body is an enigma. For teenagers first experiencing their periods, the monthly arrival of mood swings and cramps can be agonizing and inconvenient. With pregnancy—perhaps the most miraculous of bodily events—comes countless potential complications, including high blood pressure, diabetes, premature birth, and postpartum depression. And menopause is equally mystifying. Why do females lose their fertility over time and experience the notorious side effects—like hot flashes, weight gain, and hair loss—while males maintain their fertility forever? 
     
     
     
    Evolutionary geneticist and educator Dr. Deena Emera has spent much of her career studying the evolution of female reproduction. A Brief History of the Female Body draws on her vast expertise as a biologist, her experience as a mother of four children, and her love of teaching to look far into our evolutionary past, illuminating how and, more importantly, why the female form has transformed over millions of years and its effects on women's health.

    “This culinary cosmic outing is as creative as it is informative.” — STARRED review, Publishers Weekly
    		 
    From Impossible Burgers to lab-made sushi, two witty, plugged-in food scientists explore leading-edge AgTech for the answer to feeding a settlement on Mars — and nine billion Earthlings too
    		 
    Feeding a Martian is one of the greatest challenges in the history of agriculture. Will a Red Planet menu involve cheese and ice cream made from vats of fermented yeast? Will medicine cabinets overflow with pharmaceuticals created from engineered barley grown using geothermal energy? Will the protein of choice feature a chicken breast grown in a lab? Weird, wonderful, and sometimes disgusting, figuring out “what’s for dinner on Mars” is far from trivial. If we can figure out how to sustain ourselves on Mars, we will know how to do it on Earth too. In Dinner on Mars, authors Fraser and Newman show how setting the table off-planet will supercharge efforts to produce food sustainably here at home.   
    		 
    For futurists, sci-fi geeks, tech nuts, business leaders, and anyone interested in the future of food, Dinner on Mars puts sustainability and adaptability on the menu in the face of our climate crisis.

    “A passionate and heartfelt call to care.”—Bruce Feiler, New York Times bestselling author of Walking the Bible and America’s Prophet 
     In You Are Here, Thomas Kostigen, the New York Times bestselling co-author of The Green Book, takes us to the most extreme environmental areas on the planet to show how what we do from the comfort of our own home affects people, places, and things everywhere. A timely, much-needed alarm that recalls Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth combined with a compelling travel narrative reminiscent of Anthony Bourdain with straight ahead Anderson Cooper-like reporting, You Are Here is “an intriguing and insightful account that deserves to be read by everyone” (Mark Plotkin, Time Magazine Hero for the Planet).

    Of all the unexploited resources in the world, seaweed is the greatest. Without it, there would be no crustaceans, nor fish. The ocean would be a desert without carbon or oxygen, and half of our atmosphere’s oxygen would be gone.  
    The most recent research tells us that seaweed is one possible solution for our future on the planet. It could feed human beings, reduce plastic pollution, absorb enough carbon to cool the atmosphere, reconstruct generative ecosystems, treat certain illnesses that are incurable today, replace land livestock farming that exhausts the environment, and give jobs to coastal populations. 
    The seaweed revolution is a hope for tomorrow!
