Sinopsis

"Arctic Adaptations" explores the remarkable strategies that life in the Arctic employs to thrive in one of Earth's most extreme environments. The book highlights how animals and plants have evolved unique physiological adaptations, like the Arctic fox's thick fur, to combat extreme cold and prolonged darkness. Furthermore, it examines behavioral strategies such as migration patterns and cooperative hunting, demonstrating how these actions enhance survival and reproduction in the harsh Arctic climate. 

 
The book delves into crucial concepts such as physiological adaptations, behavioral strategies, and ecosystem dynamics, revealing the intricate relationships between species and their environment. It emphasizes the interconnectedness of inherited traits, learned behaviors, and ecological relationships, challenging simplistic views of survival. 

 
Beginning with an introduction to the environmental challenges of the Arctic, the book progresses through chapters examining animal and plant adaptations, culminating in an analysis of the Arctic food web and the impact of climate change. By integrating research findings from diverse scientific disciplines, "Arctic Adaptations" provides a comprehensive perspective on Arctic survival. Understanding these adaptations is vital for predicting how Arctic ecosystems will respond to environmental change, and for informing conservation efforts and sustainable resource management practices in this fragile region.

    Marx for Cats - A Radical Bestiary

    At the outset of Marx for Cats, Leigh Claire La Berge declares that "all history is the history of cat struggle." Revising the medieval bestiary form to meet Marxist critique, La Berge follows feline footprints through Western economic history to reveal an animality at the heart of Marxism. She draws on a twelve-hundred-year arc spanning capitalism's feudal prehistory, its colonialist and imperialist ages, the bourgeois revolutions that supported capitalism, and the communist revolutions that opposed it to outline how cats have long been understood as creatures of economic critique and liberatory possibility. By attending to the repeated archival appearance of lions, tigers, wildcats, and "sabo-tabbies," La Berge argues that felines are central to how Marxists have imagined the economy, and by asking what humans and animals owe each other in a moment of ecological crisis, La Berge joins current debates about the need for and possibility of eco-socialism. In this playful and radical bestiary, La Berge demonstrates that class struggle is ultimately an interspecies collaboration.

    "The Alchemy of the Enneagram in Transforming Addiction is inspiring, informative, deeply personal, and uplifting. Michael imparts the invaluable teachings of the Enneagram in a way that is personal, passionate, engages the mind, and touches the heart. I know that Michael's new book will become a staple in every addiction professional's repertoire."

    Roadkill: Unveiling the True Cost of Our Toxic Relationship with Cars, by Professor Henrietta Moore and Arthur Kay, explores the philosophical implications of car culture, as well as the practical impacts it has on your money, your taxes, your neighborhood, your planet, your health, and your happiness. 
     
    While the car has been marketed as a symbol of "freedom", the authors convincingly argue that it has limited the flourishing of our cities and restricted our choices. How can we fix our toxic relationship with cars? The authors offer a new way of thinking that promises to multiply your choices, improve your city, and expand your freedoms.  
     
    Inside the book, you'll find real-world examples of the human and monetary costs imposed by cars; philosophical arguments explaining how car-centric cities restrict the freedoms of drivers and non-drivers alike; a catalogue of ideas and approaches for urban designers, transport planners, policymakers, and mayors; and much more. 
     
    Roadkill is a persuasive and illuminating call to action for city dwellers, drivers, environmentalists, urbanists, and policymakers―anyone interested in practical ways to improve your life and expand your freedoms.

    Propositions about artificial intelligence are being debated seriously in the 21st Century, but machines, unlike plants, are not even living organisms.
    So, are plants sentient beings, like humans? Do they feel? Can they communicate?
    Plant sentience is a subject that has intrigued mankind over the ages - from the ancient Greeks, Plato and Aristotle, through to modern day philosophers and psychologists.
    In this extraordinary book, Australia's Dr Terence McMullen presents an engaging, systematic and thorough study of plant psychology.
    The aim of this work is to bring together and organize the contentions of serious students of plant life who argue that there are objective grounds for plant psychology.
    Chaste Mimosa: The Psychology of Plants is a compelling and essential book for all thinkers, students and teachers of psychology, philosophy, physiology, plus all disciplines related to the study of plants.

    A mind–bending but brilliantly accessible exploration of the shifting science behind the reality of time. 
     
    What is Now? This immediate moment, what we're experiencing right now . . . it bathes us like air, or gravity. Yet when we try to grasp this quality, to scrutinize it or bring it into focus, it vanishes, slipping through our fingers like a dream. And worse, according to the most trusted models of physics, Now doesn't even exist. If all this is so, then what, exactly, are we experiencing? How do we carve out time, sensation, self, and meaning from a blank, Now–less canvas? 
     
    In In Search of Now, award–winning science writer Jo Marchant attempts to answer these questions with characteristic flair and clarity, taking us on a grand tour of the latest thinking from physics, neuroscience, cosmology, and psychiatry about the fundamental essence and individual experience of time. Part personal journey, part philosophical meditation, and above all a fascinating scientific exploration, In Search of Now shows us what we can learn about time, both from the outside in—the cosmic perspective of physics—and as we experience it, from the inside out.
