  Maurice Hornocker is recognized worldwide as the first scientist to unravel the secrets of America's most enigmatic predator—the mountain lion. A story of redemption, this book is a memoir about the never-before-told adventures, challenges, and controversies surrounding Hornocker's groundbreaking study of cougars in the remote reaches of the Idaho Primitive Area. 
   
   
   
  North America's biggest cat was once killed for bounty dollars, slaughtered with impunity and driven toward extinction. But today's cat of intrigue, despite our lingering fears and misconceptions, has returned to much of its native range in the western United States and gained respect as a predator integral and necessary to wild ecosystems. This turnaround was triggered by one man: Maurice Hornocker. Cougars on the Cliff recounts the early years of his research when he tracked lions following a dog's nose and footprints in the snow—before telemetry was available. Hornocker was first to learn that mountain lions living in stable populations limit their own numbers through territoriality and a concept he called "mutual avoidance." This insight flew in the face of long-held beliefs that cougars were prolific and wanton killers that needed to be controlled as vermin. Thanks to Hornocker's work, today cougars can be found throughout the West and have even started to reclaim their place in New England.

  Endocrinology - The Body's...

  The endocrine system is a complex network of glands and organs that produce, regulate, and secrete hormones—chemical messengers that influence nearly every physiological process in the body. These hormones control metabolism, growth and development, reproduction, mood, and overall homeostasis. Unlike the nervous system, which relies on rapid electrical signals, the endocrine system operates through the bloodstream, allowing hormones to exert long-lasting effects on target organs and tissues. 
  The endocrine system consists of several major glands, each responsible for specific hormone production. The hypothalamus, often referred to as the control center, regulates hormonal signals and maintains communication between the nervous and endocrine systems. It directs the pituitary gland, known as the "master gland," to release hormones that influence other endocrine organs. The thyroid gland regulates metabolism through thyroid hormones, while the parathyroid glands control calcium levels in the blood. The adrenal glands produce cortisol and adrenaline, essential for stress response and energy regulation. The pancreas, an organ with both endocrine and exocrine functions, plays a crucial role in blood sugar regulation through insulin and glucagon secretion. The gonads—testes in males and ovaries in females—produce sex hormones that govern reproductive functions and secondary sexual characteristics. Additionally, the pineal gland regulates sleep-wake cycles through melatonin production.

  Science and Technology in...

  The modern world has the ancient Romans to thank for the origins of many modern technologies, conveniences, and ideas, from running water, baths, and republican style government to roads. Similarly, by the 3rd century BCE, the Romans were prodigious monument builders, so much so that the memory of the great Roman Republic and the Roman Empire continues to exist within a cityscape of stone. Rome’s public spaces were filled with statues, arches, temples, and many other varieties of monumental images, and each of these structures had its own civic or religious function. At the same time, most were embedded with stories, messages, and symbolism so that they also tended to function as propaganda. These monuments allowed the leading citizens of Rome, especially its emperors, to sculpt their own self-image and embed themselves and their most memorable deeds into the very structure of the Roman city.  
  	While some of the most famous examples, like the Colosseum and Pantheon, remain striking testaments to Roman engineering and technology, many of the scientific advances the Romans ushered into the world were smaller in scope but not necessarily any less important. Indeed, the Roman Empire was not just one of the most technologically advanced civilizations within the ancient world but also proportionately one of the most prolific throughout all history. A substantial number of these innovations were lost following the eventual fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 and the subsequent centuries of decline of the Byzantine Empire starting in the early 7th century, but rediscoveries of their advancements began during the later Middle Ages and the beginning of the Modern Era (c. 1400s). Some of their ideas and designs are only now being improved upon thanks to newer, far more advanced modern technologies.
