Synopsis

Turtle Magnetic Sense explores the remarkable ability of sea turtles to navigate vast distances using Earth's magnetic field, a phenomenon known as magnetoreception. This book dives into the sensory biology behind turtle migration, explaining how these creatures return to the same nesting beaches after years at sea. It reveals that sea turtles possess an innate magnetic map, a set of genetically encoded responses to specific magnetic field intensities, which guides their navigation.

 
The book starts by introducing the basics of Earth's magnetic field. It then examines the sensory mechanisms involved in magnetoreception, such as the potential roles of magnetite crystals, and explores behavioral experiments demonstrating the turtles' ability to discriminate between different magnetic fields.

 
The book culminates by discussing the implications of magnetic navigation for conservation, highlighting potential threats from human-induced magnetic field disturbances. This exploration of animal navigation is crucial for understanding sensory physiology and behavior. This unique synthesis of existing research provides an up-to-date account of sea turtle magnetic navigation, making it valuable for students, researchers, and anyone fascinated by natural science and animal behavior.

 
The book progresses logically, building from basic concepts to complex ecological implications, bridging biology, physics, and environmental science.

Unsettled - Lord Selkirk’s...

Robert Lower

The fascinating story of the Red River Settlement, now Winnipeg, in the years 1813 to 1816, told with archival journals, reports, and letters
		 
Unsettled tells the story of two hundred Highlanders who flee the Scottish Clearances in 1813 to establish a settlement on the Red River in what eventually became Winnipeg. They are sponsored by the Earl of Selkirk, a man who has never been west of Montreal. Families who have never left their Highland crofts take an epic journey over ocean, up wild rivers, and through boundless wilderness, surviving disease and brutal winter only to face the determined opposition of fur barons who want no sodbusters threatening their trade and are prepared to stop at nothing to destroy their dream.
		 
The “empty” land they’ve been promised is also anything but, already occupied by First Nations bands and the beginnings of that proud nation soon to be called Métis, whom they must befriend or fight.
		 
Unsettled takes you inside the experience, relying on journals, reports, and letters to bring these days of soaring hope, crushing despair, and heroic determination to life — to bring their present into ours.

The Seven Measures of the World

Piero Martin

From the beginning of history, measurement has been interwoven into the human experience, shaping our understanding of nature, personal relationships, and the supernatural. We measure the world to know our past, comprehend the present, and plan the future. 
 
 
 
Renowned physicist Piero Martin explores how scientific knowledge is built around seven key pillars of measurement: the meter for length; the second for time; the kilogram for mass; the kelvin for temperature; the ampere for electricity; the mole for quantity of substance; and the candela for luminous intensity. Martin examines the history and function of these units and illustrates their applications in rich vignettes on a range of topics—from quarks to black holes, from a glass of wine to space exploration. He delves into not only the all-important numbers but also anecdotes that underline each unit's special quality. At the same time, he explains how each unit contributes to important aspects of science, from classical physics to quantum mechanics, from relativity to chemistry, from cosmology to elementary particle physics, and from medicine to modern technology. Martin eloquently shows how the entire universe can be measured and understood using just seven units.
