Synopsis

Deep Sea Ecosystems unveils the hidden world of the deep sea, emphasizing its complex interplay of geology and biology. It explores how extreme conditions, such as crushing pressure and perpetual darkness, shape unique marine life and ecosystems.

 
The book highlights the geological processes that sculpt these habitats, from hydrothermal vents to abyssal plains, and how these formations dictate the distribution of nutrients and energy sources. A key insight is the reliance on chemosynthesis, a process where organisms create energy from chemicals rather than sunlight, forming the base of these deep-sea food webs.

 
The book progresses from an introduction to the deep sea's physical characteristics to an examination of primary producers and the diverse deep-sea fauna, detailing their adaptations and ecological roles. It showcases the resilience of organisms thriving in these extreme environments.

 
Furthermore, it addresses critical threats like climate change and deep-sea mining, advocating for conservation strategies. Drawing from scientific literature and data from deep-sea exploration technologies, this book connects Earth Sciences, Biology, and environmental science, offering a comprehensive understanding of these vital yet vulnerable environments.

    ‘Windswept is a wonderful work, prose painted in bold, bright strokes like a Scottish Colourist's canvas’ ROBERT MACFARLANE 
    ‘An instant classic of British nature-writing’ SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 
    A few years ago, Annie Worsley traded a busy life in academia to take on a small-holding or croft on the west coast of Scotland. It is a land ruled by great elemental forces – light, wind and water – that hold sway over how land forms, where the sea sits and what grows. Windswept explores what it means to live in this rugged, awe-inspiring place of unquenchable spirit and wild weather. 
    Walk with Annie as she lays quartz stones in the river to reflect the moonlight and attract salmon, as she watches otters play tag across the beach, as she is awoken by the feral bellowing of stags. Travel back in time to the epic story of how Scotland’s valleys were carved by glaciers, rivers scythed paths through mountains, how the earliest people found a way of life in the Highlands – and how she then found a home there millennia later. 
    With stunning imagery and lyrical prose, Windswept evokes a place where nature reigns supreme and humans must learn to adapt. It is her paean to a beloved place, one richer with colour, sound and life than perhaps anywhere else in the UK. 
    Annie Worsley's Windswept is a top-tier memoir that intertwines personal narratives with the history of Britain's ecosystems. Her commitment to environmental conservation and habitat protection is evident throughout, making this autobiography a must-read for those interested in European non-fiction. 
    For fans of Raynor Winn (Landlines), Sharon Blackie (The Enchanted Life), John Lewis-Stempel (England), Will Millard (The Way of the Hermit), and John D Burns (Wild Winter).

    What if running in beautiful places was paradoxically contributing to the destruction of those precious environments and causing irreversible global harm to people and animals too?
     
    In We Can’t Run Away From This, ultrarunner Damian Hall examines the impact of running in our climate and ecological emergency. Packed with insights from experts, it is an enlightening read which will prompt us all to really think about our kit, food and travel, and to identify simple changes we can make to our running and wider lives. But Damian also asks if concentrating on our individual footprints (pun unintended) is really the answer.
     
    We can’t run away from this any more, and this book will give every runner ideas about how to live and exercise more sustainably.

    It sounds unlikely, but this book is every possible aspect of the walker/writer genre in one beautifully seamless contemplation. Personal, anecdotal, psychogeographic, psychological, physiological, and spiritual understandings and stories weave around the profoundly practical, deeply kind, and grounded guidance of somebody with 7000s of kilometres and 7000s of insights and deep generosity of spirit.Joao shares his own unfolding inner and outer path with disarming humility and honesty and describes the journeys of his many participants with a lightness of touch that belies the profound transformations that people from all walks of life (pun intended) have discovered on the many Caminos described here.As well as this there is detailed advice on particular routes, where to stay, when to walk and how to do it which trump any walking guide I have read. It really is an instruction manual for a more intentional and fulfilling life and will leave you itching to go outside and begin.For those on a long walk or traveling light, this is the only book you will need.The best way to experience these pages will require walking shoes and the will to walk. Preferably along a path that leads to Nature. Because nothing beats reality, and the reality of Walking Mentorship is waiting for you out of doors.All the stories that appear in this book are real, and Joao tries to tell them as clearly and in detail as his mind remembers.He changed the name of the majority of the characters and avoided making any specific references related to real life.Finally, a note about the book itself: I am not sure this is a book. At times, it seemed like a diary; other moments, like a travel guide, and some days, I even looked at it as a manual.Use it in the best possible way. What you are about to open is just a door.After reading these pages, you might feel the urge to step outside and go for a long stroll. Don´t worry, that is normal.Keep walking
