Sinopse

"Weirdest Animal Adaptations" explores the extraordinary ways animals have evolved to survive, focusing on extreme environments and deceptive strategies. It reveals how creatures have adapted to conditions that would be lethal to humans, such as environments lacking oxygen or with extreme temperatures. For example, the axolotl's ability to regenerate lost limbs and the tardigrade's tolerance of extreme conditions highlight the remarkable limits of life. The book also delves into camouflage and mimicry, showcasing how animals evade predators or deceive prey through sophisticated adaptations. The leaf-tailed gecko's perfect resemblance to foliage and the viceroy butterfly's mimicry of the monarch butterfly demonstrate the evolutionary arms race between predator and prey. By examining these unusual adaptations, the book emphasizes evolution as an ongoing force shaping life on Earth. Structured in three parts, the book introduces adaptation and evolution, explores survival in extreme environments, and examines camouflage and mimicry. It integrates genetics, ecology, and evolutionary biology, using peer-reviewed data and engaging stories to present a comprehensive and accessible overview. This approach aims to deepen the reader's appreciation for natural selection and the resilience of living organisms, with implications for biodiversity conservation.

    In June 1862, Dostoevsky left St. Petersburg on his first excursion to Western Europe. Ostensibly making the trip to consult Western specialists about his epilepsy, he also wished to see the source of the Western ideas he believed were corrupting Russia.
    
    Over the course of his journey he visited a number of major cities, including Berlin, Paris, London, Florence, Milan, and Vienna. His impressions on what he saw, Winter Notes on Summer Impressions, were first published in the February 1863 issue of "Vremya" (Time), the periodical he edited, and are collected here.
    
    Fyodor Dostoyevsky was a Russian novelist, journalist, and short-story writer who had an immense influence on 20th-century fiction. He is commonly regarded as one of the finest novelists who ever lived, penning classics that include: Crime and Punishment, The Idiot, Demons, and The Brothers Karamazov. His ideas profoundly shaped literary modernism, existentialism, and various schools of psychology, theology, and literary criticism.

    A compendium of traditional midwestern cookies “along with the poignant and heartwarming stories behind each recipe” (Mary Bilyeu, Toledo Blade).  The Belt Cookie Table Cookbook celebrates the tradition of the cookie table with forty-one classic recipes from authentic Mahoning Valley cookie tables and cooks. What’s a cookie table? Funny you should ask! The cookie table is a tradition beloved by residents of Youngstown, Pittsburgh, and parts in between. It has its roots in a time when wedding cakes were far too dear for newly arrived immigrants to purchase. Instead, family and friends showed their love for a bride and groom by baking from scratch hundreds (sometimes thousands) of cookies and other small sweet treats to be shared at the reception. The Belt Cookie Table Cookbook is an international baking guide, including cookies from different cultures, cookies with different textures, spices, shapes, and backstories. Simple cookies, ridiculously indulgent cookies, experimental cookies―they’re all here. And most of all it shares the tradition of the cookie table, a heartfelt way of building community that has endured through generations.   In the tradition of the community cookbook, The Belt Cookie Table Cookbook is a must for any kitchen large or small, and a great gift for bakers and home cooks.

    Build-to-rent (BTR) is a new solution for the shortage of affordable housing in the US. But BTR is a misunderstood concept, even perceived by some as a means of as destroying the American dream of homeownership. Charles Kriegel breaks through the rhetoric to reveal the upsides of BTR, which are professionally managed communities of single-family homes designed for people who rent but want the comforts and amenities of homeownership.
