Sinossi

Camel vs Llama offers a fascinating exploration of two remarkable mammals that have independently evolved similar adaptations to extreme environments while becoming invaluable partners in human civilization. Through a comprehensive analysis of their physiological features, behavioral patterns, and domestication history, the book reveals how these species developed parallel solutions for survival despite evolving on different continents.

 
The text masterfully weaves together multiple scientific disciplines, examining how camels and llamas adapted to their respective harsh environments through distinct mechanisms for water conservation and temperature regulation. Readers discover intriguing comparisons, such as how camels use their distinctive humps for energy storage while llamas developed specialized wool, and how both species evolved unique foot structures suited to their native terrains.

 
The integration of recent genetic studies, archaeological findings, and traditional ecological knowledge provides a rich, multi-faceted understanding of these animals' evolutionary journeys. Moving from geological contexts to physiological adaptations and ultimately to human-animal relationships, the book maintains an accessible tone while delving into complex biological concepts.

 
This approach makes it valuable for both academic audiences and general readers interested in natural history. The work's emphasis on practical applications, including sustainable livestock management and conservation strategies, particularly resonates with readers concerned about these species' roles in adapting to climate change.

    In the 1880s, Freud discovered cocaine and became enthusiastic about what was not yet considered a party drug. Favoring the use of cocaine in the treatment of neurasthenia, as an energizer, or as an anesthetic, Freud made a creative and fashionable use of it, heralding practices that our society knows well. Several surprising texts are gathered here on cocaine. Freud recounts the use of coca in history, particularly in South America, from where it was imported. In Cocaine Addiction and Cocaine Phobia, the inventor of psychoanalysis defended coca against its accusers as a dangerous product. Finally, in the letters to Martha Bernays, his future wife, we discover an intimate and loving Freud, telling how he escaped boring dinners thanks to his dear magic substance.

    Dalai Lama (2000) believes that seeking happiness "lies in our nature": The desire or need to be happy knows no bounds. It is something that lies in our nature. As such, it needs no grounds and it is justified by the simple fact that it is something we rightly want out of our nature. One has also asked if happiness is as important in all cultures. The answer is that happiness is at the top of the wish-list in every country; It is more important than wealth and to come to heaven, and as important as love (Diener and Biswas-Diener, 2008)...what makes us richer has been costly. The wealth, or what has been the prerequisite for wealth, has reduced a quieter life, close and stable relationships, we are moving apart. A materialistic lifestyle has a negative connection with happiness (Hellevik, 2003). NEF (2016) has calculated values on Happy Planet Index for 140 countries. Highest ranks Costa Rica and a number of other countries in Latin America. The population of Costa Rica has high values for happiness and longevity, and they have low values of ecological footprints. Norway has very high values of happiness and longevity, but also of footprints. In total, Norway is ranked twelfth and therefore highest among European countries, but closely followed by Albania. The United Kingdom is at thirty-fourth place, Canada number eighty-five and the United States number 108.

    In the summer of 2022, Lee Berger lost 50 pounds in order to wriggle though impossibly small openings in the Rising Star cave complex in South Africa—spaces where his team has been unearthing the remains of Homo naledi, a proto-human likely to have coexisted with Homo sapiens some 250,000 years ago. The lead researcher on the site, still Berger had never made his way into the dark, cramped, dangerous underground spaces where many of the naledi fossils had been found. Now he was ready to do so. Once inside the cave, Berger made shocking new discoveries that expand our understanding of this early hominid—discoveries that stand to alter our fundamental understanding of what makes us human. So what does it all mean? Join Berger on the adventure of a lifetime as he explores the Rising Star cave system and begins the complicated process of explaining these extraordinary finds—finds that force a rethinking of human evolution, and discoveries that Berger calls "the Rosetta stone of the human mind."
