Sinossi

Plants Hear Sounds explores the groundbreaking science of plant bioacoustics, revealing that plants actively perceive and respond to their vibrational environment. Challenging the traditional view, the book presents evidence that plants use sophisticated sensory mechanisms to detect, discriminate, and react to sound, influencing their growth, behavior, and defense. We learn that sound and vibrations play a more critical role in plant life than previously understood, with implications for agriculture and our understanding of plant intelligence.

 
The book begins with the basics of plant biology and acoustics, before delving into how plants perceive vibrations through mechanotransduction. It investigates the impact of different sounds on plant growth and development, analyzing experimental data on music, environmental noises, and specific frequencies.

 
The book culminates by exploring the use of sound for communication, defense, and interactions with pollinators, offering potential applications for sustainable agriculture.

    Brushing and flossing are essential components of dental health, but that is not what this book is about! According to Dr. Garcia, a clean mouth becomes “dirty” because of the things done to it or placed in it by conventional dental practices. That’s because traditional dentistry is primarily concerned with pain and appearance. No one likes an aching tooth – it often drives us to the dentist in the first place. And we all want perfectly arranged pearly whites with no gaps. These are not wrong desires, but without proper concern for the patient’s health beyond the oral cavity, long-term damage can be done to vitality and length of life. Teeth, gums, and jawbone are connected to the rest of the body through the circulatory system, the lymphatic system, the digestive system, the respiratory system, and the nervous system. That means that what happens in the mouth never stays there. The materials and procedures used to produce a great-looking smile often dump toxins, pathogens, and other stresses on the oral tissues and the rest of the body that wreak havoc in many places. As a holistic dentist, Dr. Garcia can guide you into good choices about your dental care that will not sacrifice either a good-looking smile or your overall health and longevity. As you’ll soon see, a cleaner mouth does promote a longer life!

    You set the alarm early, plan the salad, and promise yourself you'll put the phone down before midnight. By evening, nothing has gone according to plan. You weren't lazy. You weren't weak. You were, quite simply, on autopilot.
    In The Autopilot Loop, neuroscientist and clinical psychologist Gregory Bicaj draws on two decades of laboratory research and frontline clinical practice to explain the hidden architecture governing human behavior. The answer lies not in character or willpower, but in the brain's ancient habit machinery — a system built for efficiency, operating largely outside conscious awareness, and running roughly 40 percent of your daily life without you.
    Bicaj introduces readers to the neurological loop at the heart of all habitual behavior: the cue that triggers action, the craving that propels it, the routine that executes it, and the reward that locks it in. From Ann Graybiel's landmark maze experiments to Wolfram Schultz's dopamine research, from the Vietnam heroin studies to Michael Phelps's Olympic preparation, the science is clear — habits are not personality. They are compressed behavioral scripts encoded in the basal ganglia, running on contextual triggers, and stubbornly indifferent to your best intentions.
    But this book is not a counsel of helplessness. It is a practical manual for working with your brain rather than against it. Bicaj shows why suppression fails and substitution succeeds, why environmental design outperforms willpower, why crises and life transitions open rare windows of behavioral plasticity, and how a single keystone habit can cascade change across an entire life. He also examines how these mechanisms operate beyond individuals — in organizations, social movements, and the digital platforms specifically engineered to capture and hold your attention.
    Across seventeen chapters that move from cellular neuroscience to corporate boardrooms to the Montgomery bus boycott, The Autopilot Loop offers a unified account of why humans repeat what they repeat — and a research-grounded, clinically tested framework for choosing something different. The result is not a promise of instant reinvention, but something more honest and more durable: a way of gradually shifting the odds, one redesigned loop at a time.
    For readers of Jonathan Haidt and Gabor Maté, and for anyone who has ever wondered why knowing better so rarely means doing better.

    Is a zebra black with white stripes or white with black stripes? And why do flamingos stand on one leg while bats hang upside down? Did you know that a chameleon's tongue can shoot out at five times the acceleration of a fighter jet?
    In The Buck That Buries its Poo, naturalist Quinton Coetzee answers these and many other intriguing wildlife questions. He also dispels countless myths and elucidates some of the legends that surround creatures in the South African bush we thought we knew all about. For example, bats do not get tangled in people's hair (because they are far too adept at flying) and elephants are not afraid of mice (but they do fear bees!).
    Other tall tales you might hear around the campfire are that lions roll in animal dung, entrails or carcasses to disguise their scent, and that rhinos have a predilection for stamping out fires. What is true, though, is that hyenas are more closely related to cats than to dogs. This handy guide is based on Coetzee's own research and that of others, and his experience gleaned over decades living close to nature and wildlife. It seeks to unravel the mysteries of nature in Africa – from mammals and birds to arthropods and plants – with fascinating information and fun trivia. It is a book that will enlighten and entertain.
    PS: Zebras are black with white stripes!
