Beschreibung

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.

Marching Powder - A True Story...

Rusty Young, Thomas McFadden

A shocking exposé of life inside Bolivia's infamous San Pedro Prison, uncovered by an intrepid young backpacker turned accidental inmate.

Rusty Young was backpacking in South America when he heard about Thomas McFadden, a convicted English drug trafficker who ran tours inside Bolivia's notorious San Pedro prison. Intrigued, the young Australian journalist went to La Paz and joined one of Thomas's illegal tours. They formed an instant friendship and then became partners in an attempt to record Thomas's experiences in the jail. Rusty bribed the guards to allow him to stay and for the next three months he lived inside the prison, sharing a cell with Thomas and recording one of the strangest and most compelling prison stories of all time. The result is Marching Powder.

This book establishes that San Pedro is not your average prison. Inmates are expected to buy their cells from real estate agents. Others run shops and restaurants. Women and children live with imprisoned family members. It is a place where corrupt politicians and drug lords live in luxury apartments, while the poorest prisoners are subjected to squalor and deprivation. Violence is a constant threat, and sections of San Pedro that echo with the sound of children by day house some of Bolivia's busiest cocaine laboratories by night. In San Pedro, cocaine—"Bolivian marching powder"—makes life bearable. Even the prison cat is addicted.

Yet Marching Powder is also the tale of friendship, a place where horror is countered by humor and cruelty and compassion can inhabit the same cell. This is cutting-edge travel-writing and a fascinating account of infiltration into the South American drug culture.

This audiobook is read by Adrian Mulraney and Rusty Young, with audio production by Bolinda Publishing. It was published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
