Sinopse

"Hawk Motion Detection" explores the remarkable visual abilities of hawks, specifically focusing on their unparalleled skill in detecting and intercepting moving prey. This exploration reveals the fascinating biological mechanisms, behavioral adaptations, and ecological factors that contribute to their hunting success. One intriguing aspect is the specialized structures in their eyes and brains that enable exceptional motion detection, allowing them to track fast-moving targets from great distances. The book not only illuminates the intricacies of avian vision but also offers potential inspiration for advancements in artificial vision and drone technology. 

 
The book takes an integrated approach, examining the neurobiology of hawk vision, their hunting behaviors, and the evolutionary pressures that have shaped their capabilities. It progresses from an overview of avian visual systems to detailed analyses of neural mechanisms, hunting techniques like soaring and stooping, and the ecological context driving these adaptations. By combining insights from laboratory experiments, field observations, and computational models, "Hawk Motion Detection" provides a holistic understanding of how hawks master the art of motion detection to thrive in their ecological niche.

    Farming and ranching success comes from the freedom to fail because there is no silver bullet. Curiosity – Farmers Discovering What Works tells journeys farmers make to find solutions that are kinder to the environment, easier on the pocket and bring purpose, pride and confidence to those in the most complex profession there is. Each story has nuggets of inspiration and insight to stimulate observation and logic in farming matters. 
    John's perspectives are associated with the practices and principles of Allan Savory's Holistic Management, which though habits and routines, changes how farmers observe, question and probe for solutions. John teaches this in New Zealand and assists with farmers around the globe as a tutor for Holistic Management International. John draws on similarly minded farmers and experts such as Joel Salatin, Gabe Brown, Allan Nation, Allen Williams, Fred Provenza, Christine Jones, Charles Massy and others offering commercial farmers new directions and insights. 
    Reviews include: 
    …his purposeful “short, sharp” essays are designed for busy people. “Hopefully it’s style will remind you of Allan Nation.” Yes, John King did indeed capture Allan’s wise pithiness. I found myself underlining or circling something in virtually every essay. It’s dense, packed with sensible advice gleaned from dozens of on-farm experiments over numerous decades. Joel Salatin, editor, Stockman Grass Farmer, Missouri, USA 
    This invaluable and important book should be compulsory reading for anyone daring to manage farming landscapes with an eye to contributing to healthier farmscapes and catchments, rural families and their animals, and to a sustainable future. How I wish I could have read and lived in such a book as this when I was a young farmer preparing to make all the mistakes. A farming, social, and environmental gem. Charles Massy, author, Call of the Reed Warbler

    Humachine Era by Professor Madee Salehi offers a compelling exploration of how artificial intelligence is reshaping the very fabric of society. Drawing on his unique background in sociology, computer science, computer engineering, and AI, Salehi examines the profound transformation underway across our most essential institutions, work, education, politics, and everyday life. 
    Written in an accessible, reader-friendly style, the book demystifies AI technology, explaining in clear terms what artificial intelligence is, how it works, and why its capabilities, while impressive, remain fundamentally different from human thinking. Salehi argues that AI does not truly “think” but instead relies on intensive mathematical computation, a distinction with profound implications. 
    At the heart of Humachine Era is a pressing sociological question: What happens when AI begins replacing human workers in offices, factories, schools, and other institutions? Salehi warns that society must urgently redefine employment as the primary source of livelihood and expand human rights frameworks to meet this challenge. Without adaptation, he cautions, we risk social unrest and political instability. 
    Blending technical insight with sociological foresight, Humachine Era is essential listening for anyone seeking to understand the nonlinear, rapidly accelerating changes that AI is bringing to our world—and what we must do to navigate them.
