Summary

Ant Pheromone Networks explores the fascinating world of chemical communication in ant colonies, revealing how these social insects use pheromones to coordinate complex behaviors without central control. The book uncovers how ants achieve coordinated foraging, defense, and social organization through these chemical signals, highlighting the colony as a superorganism. Readers will discover that ant colonies function as decentralized, self-organizing systems, where pheromone trails serve as the primary mechanism for collective actions. The book examines the chemical diversity of ant pheromones, how ants detect and interpret these signals, and the collective behaviors that emerge. By integrating chemical ecology, behavioral biology, and network science, it offers a holistic understanding of ant pheromone networks. Beginning with an introduction to pheromone communication, the book progresses through foraging, defense, and social organization, culminating in broader implications for collective intelligence and decentralized control systems in fields like swarm robotics.

    Science is so f*cking rad. We don't deserve it. 
     
     
     
    What actually is quantum physics? If you can answer that questions without bullsh*tting the person standing next to you in the bookstore, you can stop listening right now. But although most of us don't actually understand quantum physics, and if we understood it we'd probably be rich and beautiful and happy, right? After all, there are plenty of people out there trying to sell you quantum crystals to align your quantum energy with your quantum destiny. Can they all be wrong? 
     
     
     
    Spoiler: yes. Yes, they can. There is no such thing as quantum crystals. Sorry! 
     
     
     
    Luckily, as pseudo-science takes over the internet and it's getting harder and harder to separate alternative facts from real science, Chris Ferrie (an actual quantum physicist!) is here to explain quantum physics in a way that makes sense, so you can see the hucksters and bullsh*tters coming from a mile away—and school them in what quantum entanglement actually is (it has nothing to do with your romantic life). If you f*cking love science and want to be slightly less dumb than you were when you woke up this morning, Quantum Bullsh*t is the truly out-of-this-world book for you.

    Lovely book of nature written for children by teacher and naturalist Clara Dillingham Pierson. This book in the "Among the People" series explores the animal inhabitants of the meadow and garden.

From the author's Introduction: "In selecting the tiny creatures of field and garden for the characters in this book, I have remembered with pleasure the way in which my six loyal pupils befriended stray crickets and grasshoppers, their intense appreciation of the new realm of fancy and observation, and the eagerness and attention with which they sought Mother Nature, the most wonderful and tireless of all story-tellers." - Summary by Clara Dillingham Pierson & Jill Engle
