Sinopse

Tree Clones uncovers the hidden world of clonal tree colonies, where entire forests originate from single trees through vegetative reproduction, like rhizomes and root suckers, challenging the traditional view of forests as collections of individual organisms. This fascinating realm of plant physiology reveals how trees clone themselves, emphasizing the ecological importance of these clonal forests. These forests play unique roles in bolstering biodiversity, carbon sequestration, and resilience to environmental changes. The book explores the biological mechanisms behind clonal reproduction and the ecological impact of clonal forests, highlighting their evolutionary adaptation for thriving in challenging environments. You'll discover how resource sharing and disease resistance contribute to the long-term survival of these clonal populations. Structured in three parts, the book introduces clonal reproduction, delves into the ecological characteristics of clonal forests, and examines the evolutionary history of tree cloning, providing a scientific perspective enriched with case studies and illustrations.

    Why Fly - Seeking Awe Healing...

    From the New York Times bestselling author Caroline Paul, a thrilling, gravity-defying book that takes us skyward to explore the art of aeronautics—and the depths of the human heart.  
      
    Flying has long represented the beautiful, high-stakes human drive to invent, to explore, to experience. Caroline Paul has known this since becoming a pilot at twenty years old. Now she's in her fifties, and her long-term marriage is dissolving beneath her. She begins to fly a gyrocopter. Isn't it easier to learn a landing than a human heart? 
      
    As Paul examines the descent of love through the ascent of flight, she turns her eye to the history, the physics, and the deep impact of flying on others. From the brave Night Witches who flew biplanes against the Nazis, to the ultralight pilots who believe they can save endangered birds by becoming one of the flock, to the many people afraid to step onto a passenger plane, Why Fly examines the ways flight, like love, confounds and yet transforms us. Often we soar. But we also crash land. Still, we want to fly. Why? 
      
    "Paul discusses the physics of flight; the difficulties that make takeoff and landing precarious; navigation strategies; and techniques pilots use for not getting lost, such as dead reckoning, pilotage, and, helpfully, GPS … Though the memoir is threaded with a sense of loss, Paul has a light touch in contriving metaphors from flying. An engaging memoir of exhilaration and sadness."—Kirkus Reviews
