Synopsis

Wasp Nest Building explores the fascinating world of wasp architecture, revealing how these insects create intricate nests from simple materials like mud and chewed wood pulp. The book unveils the complex construction techniques employed by various wasp species, from paper wasps to mud daubers, and examines the biological and environmental factors that influence their nest designs. One intriguing fact is how these creatures, with such tiny brains, manage to build such sophisticated structures. Another is the way climate, predation, and resource availability shape nest architecture. The book synthesizes centuries of natural history observation with modern tools like microscopy and chemical analysis to present a comprehensive picture of wasp nest construction. Beginning with an introduction to the diverse world of wasps and their nesting behaviors, the book progresses through chapters dedicated to nest materials, the building process, and the environmental factors influencing design. Ultimately, it highlights how understanding wasp nest construction can provide valuable insights into insect behavior, materials science, and even principles applicable to human architecture, from biomimicry to pest management.

    Dr. Ryan Robinson should have been a statistic. Instead, he became a successful owner of multiple dental and medical practices—all before the age of forty. In 2015, with his first practice thriving, it looked like he already had “the life.” But inside, despite the external success, he had hit a personal rock bottom, burned out on dental work, and he realized he wasn’t truly passionate about the work. After asking himself, “Why am I here on this earth?” he recalibrated to find the answer and think bigger than ever before.

    A violinist sees a scarlet form when he plays a certain note; a rock star sees waves of blue and green as he composes a ballad; an actress tastes cake when she utters the word "table." Described by some as a superpower this mingling of the senses is called "synesthesia," and the people who possess this amazing gift are called "synesthetes." 
     
     
      
    What happens when a journalist turns her lens on a mystery happening in her own life? Maureen Seaberg did just that and lived for a year exploring her synesthesia. The wondrous brain trait is often described as blended senses, but for Maureen, synesthesia is not an idle "brain tick" that can be explained away by science (although it does offer some important clues). It is a unique ability to tap into and reveal a greater creative universe and even the divine. 
     
     
     
    Join her as she visits top neuroscientists, rock stars, violinists, other synesthetes, philosophers, savants, quantum physicists, and even Tibetan lamas in her journey toward the truth. 
     
     
     
    Step into Maureen's shimmering alternate universe as she explores this fascinating subject, combining clear explanations of groundbreaking scientific research with an exploration of deeper understanding of our senses.
