Sinossi

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.

    As environmental, political, and public health crises multiply on Earth, we are also at the dawn of a new space race in which governments team up with celebrity billionaires to exploit the cosmos for human gain. The best-known of these pioneers are selling different visions of the future: while Elon Musk and SpaceX seek to establish a human presence on Mars, Jeff Bezos and Blue Origin work toward moving millions of earthlings into rotating near-Earth habitats. Despite these distinctions, these two billionaires share a core utopian project: the salvation of humanity through the exploitation of space. 
     
     
      
    In Astrotopia, philosopher of science and religion Mary-Jane Rubenstein pulls back the curtain on the not-so-new myths these space barons are peddling, like growth without limit, energy without guilt, and salvation in a brand-new world. As Rubenstein reveals, we have already seen the destructive effects of this frontier zealotry in the centuries-long history of European colonialism. But Rubenstein does more than expose the values of capitalist technoscience as the product of bad mythologies. She offers a vision of exploring space without reproducing the atrocities of earthly colonialism, encouraging us to find and even make stories that put cosmic caretaking over profiteering.

    The cosmic frontier has long captivated human imagination as it holds the mysteries of the universe in its vast expanses. From the earliest observations of the night sky, humanity has been drawn to the unknown depths beyond our planet, seeking to unravel the secrets of dark matter and the intricate evolution of galaxies. In this chapter, we explore the beginnings of our cosmic journey and the fundamental forces that shape the universe, setting the stage for a deeper understanding of the interplay between dark matter and galactic evolution. 
    The universe, in its infancy, was a turbulent and dynamic environment where matter and energy coalesced into the structures we observe today. In the early moments following the Big Bang, subtle fluctuations in density laid the groundwork for the formation of dark matter haloes, which in turn influenced the emergence of galaxies. These initial irregularities acted as seeds that grew over time through gravitational attraction, gradually giving rise to the complex web of cosmic structures that now stretches across the observable universe. 
    As we peer into the cosmic frontier, the concept of dark matter becomes central to our understanding of the universe’s architecture. Dark matter, an invisible substance that does not interact with light in the conventional manner, exerts gravitational forces that shape the evolution of galaxies. Although its exact composition remains elusive, its effects are evident in the rotational speeds of galaxies and the clustering of matter on cosmic scales. The study of these phenomena provides critical clues about the underlying nature of dark matter and the processes that govern the birth and evolution of galactic systems.
