  Of Cockroaches and Crickets -...

  For many people, cockroaches are the most pesky of pests. In this funny and fascinating book, Frank reveals his love and admiration for so-called "nasty" creatures like cockroaches, crickets, and more. He shows us that even seemingly terrifying insects are beautiful in their own way—and essential to all life on Earth. 
   
   
   
  Frank never planned to study cockroaches. But when researching hummingbirds fell through, he switched to cockroach feces—and soon fell in love. Cockroaches are incredible survivors, devoted parents, and adapt to almost any environment. Nischk even answers the age-old question of whether a cockroach would survive a nuclear explosion. After hearing such eye-opening and warm-hearted stories, you'll think twice before stepping on one! 
   
   
   
  From cockroaches to crickets, Nischk travels to Ecuador to record cricket sounds, where he finds jungles bursting with a riot of insect life (including bullet ants whose stings are surprisingly painful). As Nischk tells his (mis)adventures as an entomologist, he shares stories about intriguing insect discoveries, from damselflies who lay eggs deep underwater, to zombie fungi that invade the brains of ants. Brimming with fascinating facts, incredible stories, and unbelievable anecdotes, Of Cockroaches and Crickets will intrigue anyone who has ever loved—or hated!—bugs.

  Nature’s Ghosts: The must-read...

  Winner of the 2024 Richard Jefferies Award for nature writingShortlisted for the 2024 Wainwright Prize for Writing on ConservationA Times Science Book of the Year 
  ‘Sophie writes fantastically, chronicling the most important issues facing nature conservationists today.’ Chris Packham 
  For thousands of years, humans have been the architects of the natural world. Our activities have permanently altered the environment – for good and for bad. 
  In Nature’s Ghosts, award-winning journalist Sophie Yeo examines how the planet would have looked before humans scrubbed away its diversity: from landscapes carved out by megafauna to the primeval forests that emerged following the last Ice Age, and from the eagle-haunted skies of the Dark Ages to the flower-decked farms of more recent centuries. 
  Uncovering the stories of the people who have helped to shape the landscape, she seeks out their footprints even where it seems there are none to be found. And she explores the timeworn knowledge that can help to fix our broken relationship with the earth. 
  Along the way, Sophie encounters the environmental detectives – archaeological, cultural and ecological – reconstructing, in stunning detail, the landscapes we have lost. 
  Today, the natural world is more vulnerable than ever; the footprints of humanity heavier than they have ever been. But, as this urgent book argues, from the ghosts of the past, we may learn how to build a more wild and ancient future. 
  Sophie Yeo's Nature’s Ghosts is a non-fiction masterpiece that takes us on a journey through the science of ecology, exploring the habitats and ecosystems that have been altered by human activity. The book emphasises the need for protection of these resources, offering a glimpse into the past to help us understand how we can shape a better future. 
  For fans of Robert Macfarlane (Is a River Alive?), Robin Wall Kimmerer (The Democracy of Species), Isabella Tree (Wilding), Jennifer Ackerman (What an Owl Knows), and Derek Gow (Birds, Beasts and Bedlam).

  Paleozoology - Prehistoric Life:...

  Paleozoology is the study of ancient animals, examining their evolution, behavior, and interactions within prehistoric ecosystems. As a subfield of paleontology, it focuses specifically on the fossilized remains of animals, reconstructing their lives and understanding their role in the history of life on Earth. By analyzing fossilized bones, shells, footprints, and even traces of ancient DNA, paleozoologists uncover details about species that lived millions of years ago. 
  The significance of paleozoology extends beyond mere curiosity about prehistoric creatures. It provides crucial insights into how life evolved, how ecosystems changed over time, and how past extinctions shaped the modern world. Studying ancient animals helps scientists recognize patterns in evolution and extinction, offering valuable knowledge about biodiversity and climate change. These lessons are particularly relevant today as humanity faces environmental challenges that threaten species survival. 
  Paleozoologists employ various methods to study prehistoric life. Fossil excavation is a fundamental aspect, requiring careful digging and preservation techniques to recover delicate remains. Once fossils are collected, researchers use radiometric dating to determine their age, comparing them with geological layers for context. Comparative anatomy is another essential tool, allowing scientists to reconstruct ancient creatures by comparing their fossils to modern animals with similar structures. In recent years, advanced imaging technology, such as CT scans, has enabled paleozoologists to examine fossils in greater detail, even uncovering soft tissues that rarely fossilize.

  After Apollo: The History of...

  Charles River Editors

  Today the Space Race is widely viewed poignantly and fondly as a race to the Moon that culminated with Apollo 11 “winning” the Race for the United States. In fact, it encompassed a much broader range of competition between the Soviet Union and the United States that affected everything from military technology to successfully launching satellites that could land on Mars or orbit other planets in the Solar System. Moreover, the notion that America “won” the Space Race at the end of the 1960s overlooks just how competitive the Space Race actually was in launching people into orbit, as well as the major contributions the Space Race influenced in leading to today’s International Space Station and continued space exploration.  
  Space exploration was always an expensive business, and throughout NASA’s history, the agency has had to justify to Congress its need for every dollar it intended to spend. This problem has helped NASA to be more careful and more creative with the money they did receive, and scientists had to justify the equipment they wanted to include on each space probe. They had to justify the size and the power demand, too. If they wanted too much, the entire mission might be scrubbed, and all their work would have been for naught. This made planning and designs leaner and more efficient, as scientists and engineers were more careful with their recommendations. 
  Although Apollo 11’s successful mission to the Moon is seen as the culmination of the Space Race, and the Apollo program remains NASA’s most famous, one of the space agency’s most successful endeavors came a few years later. In fact, the Pioneer program was the most diversified sequence of any of NASA’s programs, and though they’re now remembered for being among the first probes in history to reach the Outer Solar System, the elaborate planning changed goals several times over several years before resulting in historic successes.
