Summary

Strongest Animals explores the fascinating realm of animal strength, revealing the biological and evolutionary adaptations that enable creatures to perform incredible feats. Discover how the book introduces fundamental concepts like force and biomechanics, setting the stage for an in-depth look at how both invertebrates and vertebrates achieve their impressive physical capabilities. For instance, the book highlights how dung beetles can pull objects many times their own weight due to their exoskeleton structure and muscle arrangement.

 
The book then progresses through an exploration of invertebrates, vertebrates, and the influence of environmental factors on strength. Readers will learn about animals ranging from ants capable of lifting 50 times their weight to gorillas exhibiting powerful movement, understanding the interplay between skeletal structure, muscle mass, and neurological control. This comparative and analytical approach delves into the "why" behind animal strength, providing a nuanced understanding of evolutionary biology and animal adaptations, rather than simply listing the strongest animals.

 
Drawing upon scientific studies and biomechanical analyses, Strongest Animals presents information in a clear and engaging style suitable for a broad audience interested in zoology, biology, and nature. From understanding how selective pressures have shaped the evolution of strength to examining the impact of habitat, this book offers valuable insights into the animal kingdom's most powerful creatures.

    Most people aspire to become property owners and view real estate investments as an important way to build wealth and security. Mortgages are the norm. But does this system truly serve the well-being of either the economy or the individual? Martin Adams shares a view that profiting from land ownership causes social and cultural decline as well as environmental devastation. He introduces a radically new economic model that points to a more fair and abundant reality for everyone. He says this about mortgages, “As long as it remains an ongoing reality for the majority of human beings to have to pay other human beings for the land that they’re standing on, the economic system will forever cause wealth inequality at a core level.” Tune into this dynamic dialogue in order to fully understand his vision of a more equitable economic system that takes banks out of the picture and puts community in the center of economic of wealth and prosperity.

    The great auk is one of the most tragic and documented examples of extinction. A flightless bird that bred primarily on the remote islands of the North Atlantic, the last of its kind were killed in Iceland in 1844. Gísli Pálsson draws on firsthand accounts from the Icelanders who hunted the last great auks to bring to life a bygone age of Victorian scientific exploration while offering vital insights into the extinction of species. 
     
     
     
    Pálsson vividly recounts how British ornithologists John Wolley and Alfred Newton set out for Iceland to collect specimens only to discover that the great auks were already gone. At the time, the Victorian world viewed extinction as an impossibility or trivialized it as a natural phenomenon. Pálsson chronicles how Wolley and Newton documented the fate of the last birds through interviews with the men who killed them, and how the naturalists' Icelandic journey opened their eyes to the disappearance of species as a subject of scientific concern—and as something that could be caused by humans. 
     
     
     
    Blending a richly evocative narrative with rare, unpublished material as well as insights from ornithology, anthropology, and Pálsson's own North Atlantic travels, The Last of Its Kind reveals how the saga of the great auk opens a window onto the human causes of mass extinction.
