Sinopsis

"Frog Chorus Science" explores the fascinating world of frog communication, diving into how these amphibians produce and perceive sound amidst noisy environments. The book investigates how frogs generate unique calls for species recognition and mate attraction, showcasing the intricate adaptations that allow them to be heard in dense acoustic competition. Readers will discover the biophysics behind sound production in frogs and how genetic and environmental factors contribute to species-specific signals. The book uniquely integrates molecular mechanisms with ecological contexts to understand frog vocalizations. 

 
It examines the dynamics of frog choruses, including neural control, social interactions, and environmental influences, illustrating how frogs synchronize or strategically time their calls. By synthesizing acoustic recordings, neurophysiological experiments, and behavioral observations, "Frog Chorus Science" offers a comprehensive view of amphibian acoustics. Starting with the biophysics of sound production, the book progresses through call variations and chorus dynamics, culminating in adaptations that help frogs overcome acoustic interference. 

 
This approach provides a clear and accessible understanding of how evolutionary biology, neurobiology, and ecology intersect in the study of frog communication, making it valuable for students, researchers, and anyone interested in animal behavior and life sciences.

    "A must-read for anyone who loves Kruger and adventure." - Tony Park 
    WALKING WILD is not your typical safari - no game drives, no cool sundowners and definitely no fences. Instead, it's 605 km of dust, sweat and unforgettable moments as an unlikely group of strangers sets out to walk the entire length of Kruger National Park. Over six stages and three years, they walked from Crooks' Corner in the far north to Malelane in the south, averaging 20 km a day with heavy backpacks and only the wild for company. 
    Led by two armed guides, they braved blistering heat and violent storms. At night, as hyenas nosed their tents and lionesses strolled right through camp, some slept soundly - others lay wide eyed, waiting for dawn. They drank from murky trickles in dry riverbeds, navigated thick riverine bush teeming with hippo, buffalo and crocodiles, and slowly learnt to read the bush - from the smallest antlion to the distant roar of a lion. 
    But Kruger's wilderness is not without its challenges. Poachers - both criminal syndicates and those in search of bushmeat - move in the shadows, rivers bring pollution from beyond its borders, and conservation battles rage on. WALKING WILD captures the magic and the madness of life on foot in one of the world's most iconic national parks. It's a story of adventure, camaraderie and deep immersion in the wild - a journey that leaves no one unchanged. 
    WALKING WILD is a testament to resilience, discovery and the deep connection between people and nature. If you've ever dreamt of experiencing Kruger beyond the safari vehicle, this book is your ticket to the trail.

    The Land of Little Rain is a book of sketches which portray the high desert country of southern California, where the Sierras descend into the Mojave Desert. Mary Austin finds beauty in the harsh landscape: "This is the sense of the desert hills--that there is room enough and time enough. . . The treeless spaces uncramp the soul." Her story begins with the water trails that lead toward the few life giving springs--the way marked for men by ancient Indian pictographs. Life and death play out at these springs. Rabbits fall prey to the coyote; buzzards hang heavily in the sky above. She then writes of individuals who eke out their living in this land of scarce resources--an itinerant gold prospector, a sheepherder, a blind Indian basket maker. Austin's spare prose creates unforgettable vignettes: "Choose a hill country for storms. . . I remember one night of thunderous rain made unendurably mournful by the houseless cry of a cougar whose lair, and perhaps his family, had been buried under a slide of broken boulders . . ." Anyone who sees beauty in the Southwestern deserts, or who just enjoys good nature writing, will savor The Land of Little Rain. ( Summary by Sue Anderson )
