  The Lagoon - Encounters with the...

  Once a killing ground for whalers hunting a leviathan they called the "devilfish," the San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja, Mexico, is now an environmental and spiritual sanctuary—the only place in the world where animals in their natural aquatic environment routinely seek out human contact. A nursery for the gray whale since before recorded history, the lagoon and its stories, told here by James Michael Dorsey, illuminate the magic of human connection to animals, and what those bonds teach us about ourselves and our purpose on this shared planet. 
   
   
   
  Weaving two decades of San Ignacio adventures with the history of the lagoon, Dorsey vividly captures the lively people of Baja, like the mystical godfather of whale-watching, Pachico Mayoral, as well as the whales he's bonded with over the years, like Slackjaw, Patch, and Dervish. Looming over his journeys are the many dangers to the area, from the Mitsubishi Corporation's attempts to build salt works to plans for resort development on the Baja coast, to pollution and climate change, and even to the orcas who hunt the gray whales. 
   
   
   
  A tale of wondrous bonds between the intelligent, spirited gray whales and the people from around the world who come to this place to touch, kiss, and play with them—The Lagoon is a testament to the importance of preserving these animals and their natural habitats.

  On the Origin of Species

  Charles Darwin

  Charles Darwin's seminal work published in 1859, presents the theory of evolution through natural selection. The book outlines how species change over time, with variations in physical and behavioral characteristics allowing organisms better suited to their environment to survive and reproduce, passing on favorable traits to future generations. Darwin cites evidence from his observations, experiments, and research, including on his voyage aboard the HMS Beagle, to argue that all life shares a common ancestor and that the diversity of species arises through this process of gradual evolution, rather than through special creation as widely believed at the time. The book challenged prevailing religious and scientific views, sparking intense debate, but Darwin's theory of natural selection has since become the foundation of modern evolutionary biology.
