Sinopsis

Explore the hidden acoustic world beneath the ocean's surface in Ocean Sound Layers, revealing how sound shapes marine life. Sound is a vital, often overlooked dimension in marine ecosystems; the book explains how it influences behavior, communication, and survival for creatures ranging from microscopic plankton to massive whales. Discover how factors like salinity and temperature affect sound speed and transmission, creating unique acoustic niches.

 
The book progresses from the physics of underwater sound to the acoustic adaptations of marine organisms and culminates with an analysis of human-caused noise pollution. Marine animals have evolved remarkable acoustic adaptations; some use sound for hunting, others for avoiding predators.

 
This book uniquely integrates marine biology, physics, and environmental science to provide an evidence-based analysis of our oceans' complex soundscapes, essential for conservation efforts. One may be surprised to know that the study of underwater acoustics evolved from wartime sonar.

Bread & War - A Ukrainian Story...

Felicity Spector

Inspirational and insightful, Bread and War is a compelling account of feeding, eating and resistance in wartime Ukraine 
 
From the military kitchens which cook for soldiers and volunteers, to the chefs who shifted from fine dining to turning out hot meals and loaves of bread for families in need - food has become a central part of Ukraine's war effort. 
 
Food is a weapon, a lifeline, a means of survival. It's also a powerful symbol of national identity and memory for the millions of people who've been forced from their homes. 
 
Bread and War tells the extraordinary stories of just some of those people - the army cooks, the bakers, the kitchen volunteers, the charity workers, the refugees and the young chefs who repeatedly reopen cafes after multiple bombings, determined to reclaim Ukrainian food memories after decades of Soviet suppression, driven to keep Ukraine independent in politics and culture.
