Summary

"Whale Deep Hearing" explores the captivating realm of whale bioacoustics, revealing how these marine mammals use sound for communication, navigation, and social interaction. It delves into the physics of underwater acoustics, explaining how factors like temperature and salinity affect sound propagation. The book highlights the diversity of whale vocalizations, from the haunting songs of humpback whales to the echolocation clicks of orcas, emphasizing the sophistication of whale communication.

 
The book examines the impact of human-generated noise pollution on whale communication and behavior, revealing how shipping, sonar, and industrial activities disrupt their acoustic habitat. It presents evidence from hydrophone recordings, behavioral observations, and anatomical studies to support its claims.

 
This interdisciplinary approach, integrating oceanography, marine biology, and environmental science, provides a holistic understanding of whale communication and its ecological significance. The book progresses from the scientific foundations of whale bioacoustics to an analysis of different types of whale vocalizations and concludes with a discussion of conservation strategies. By presenting the information in a scientific yet accessible manner, "Whale Deep Hearing" is a valuable resource for marine biologists, conservationists, and anyone interested in ocean conservation.

    Discover the heartwarming and uplifting true story of how one man found kindness, friendship, and the power of faith as he desperately searched for his stolen dog (and best friend). 
    On Valentine's Day 2019, someone stole Steven Carino's dog, Oliver, from his car. Having lost his mother at thirteen and grown up with an alcoholic father, he could always count on his dogs for comfort and company. But now, with his beloved Oliver missing, Steven felt utterly alone. 
    Then, the miracle. In a series of near-impossible coincidences, people from different walks of life crossed paths with Oliver and with Steven. Hardworking immigrants, wealthy suburbanites, car mechanics, deli workers, old friends, close relatives, street cops, gang members, a TV news reporter, social media followers around the world, and one very gifted hairdresser all played a part in Steven's desperate journey to find Oliver. In the middle of it all, Steven realized that no one is ever truly alone--and that the power of community can be life-changing. 
    Oliver is not just a book about a stolen dog. At its core, it's a story about kindness, friendship, and the power of faith. As Steven says, “This is more than just a dog story. This is an everybody story. This is a love story.”

    "The world is a very narrow bridge. Cross it with a dog." 
     
     
     
    "When in doubt, walk your dog" is the first of many valuable maxims in Dog Lessons, a heartfelt reflection on what dogs can teach us when we open ourselves to listen and learn. After sixty-plus years living and working with dogs, Hersch Wilson shares self-deprecating stories and lighthearted musings on a life filled with fur-covered furniture, unexplained messes, and destroyed property. The resulting compendium of dog wisdom—from universal values like loyalty and curiosity to practical lessons on napping, playing, and avoiding a serious fight—is not only poignant but eminently good advice.
