Sinossi

"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.

    This book guides you on a pleasant, 8.5-mile route in and around the city of Bath in Somerset, England, the only UK city to be designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in its entirety for its history, its architecture and its natural setting in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. 
    Bath’s hot springs, pouring out a million litres of scalding water every day, have drawn people here for thousands of years, including the Romans, who built a grand spa complex visited by people from Asia, Africa and all over the Roman world. 
    In the 800s, Alfred the Great built a wall around the ruined spa on Roman foundations to defend the town against the Danes, and it remained a tiny walled city with a Saxon street grid for the next eight centuries, right up to the mid-1700s, by which time Bath had become the hottest resort for the British aristocracy in the country. 
    The pressure of that sparked a building boom that saw the city burst through its wall and climb the steep hills of the verdant river valley it sits in. It’s a new town, like Dubai or Las Vegas, except it settled into its current shape just over two centuries ago. 
    The Saxons set up a powerful monastery here in the early Middle Ages, and Edgar, the first King of All England, was crowned at the Saxon abbey in 973. 
    The current Abbey was completed in the 1530s, just in time for the Dissolution of the Monasteries when an enraged Henry VIII kicked the monks out on pain of death and ransacked the brand new church, leaving it a gutted shell until his gentler daughter, Elizabeth I, took the Abbey and the city under her royal wing. 
    All this and more is visible in the city’s fabric and dramatic landscape. Bath resident Rod Sweet – veteran journalist, author, walker and history fan – takes you on an immersive tour through the city’s 2,000-year evolution, exploring the narrow lanes, intimate courtyards, architectural icons and hidden gems, telling the stories of the people and ideas that shaped this remarkable place.
