Sinopsis

In "Birds in Town & Village," W. H. Hudson presents a profound exploration of avian life interwoven with the human experience. Through a combination of meticulous observation and poetic prose, Hudson captures the intricate behaviors and characteristics of various bird species as they adapt to urban and rural environments. The book is not merely a straightforward natural history; it delves into the philosophical relationship between humans and nature, showcasing Hudson's rich literary style that combines elements of romanticism with scientific inquiry, set against the backdrop of a rapidly industrializing Britain. W. H. Hudson, a naturalist and writer born in Argentina and later residing in England, developed a deep appreciation for nature from an early age. His diverse background and early experiences in the Pampas ignited his fascination with wildlife, ultimately influencing his literary career. Hudson wrote passionately about the need to appreciate and protect the natural world, making "Birds in Town & Village" a vital contribution to both ornithology and environmental literature. Recommended for bird enthusiasts, nature lovers, and literary scholars, this work offers a unique lens through which to view the complexities of urban wildlife. Hudson's blend of science, art, and philosophical reflection invites readers to reconsider their own connections to the avian inhabitants around them.

    Assembled here for the first time in one volume are forty classic papers that have laid the foundations of modern ecology. Whether by posing new problems, demonstrating important effects, or stimulating new research, these papers have made substantial contributions to an understanding of ecological processes, and they continue to influence the field today. The papers span nearly nine decades of ecological research, from 1887 on, and are organized in six sections: foundational papers, theoretical advances, synthetic statements, methodological developments, field studies, and ecological experiments. Selections range from Connell's elegant account of experiments with barnacles to Watt's encyclopedic natural history, from a visionary exposition by Grinnell of the concept of niche to a seminal essay by Hutchinson on diversity. Six original essays by contemporary ecologists and a historian of ecology place the selections in context and discuss their continued relevance to current research. This combination of classic papers and fresh commentaries makes Foundations of Ecology both a convenient reference to papers often cited today and an essential guide to the intellectual and conceptual roots of the field. Published with the Ecological Society of America.

    On Time and Water

    A few years ago, Andri Snaer Magnason, one of Iceland's most beloved writers and public intellectuals, was asked by a leading climate scientist why he wasn't writing about the greatest crisis mankind has faced. Magnason demurred: he wasn't a specialist, it wasn't his field. But the scientist persisted: "If you cannot understand our scientific findings and present them in an emotional, psychological, poetic or mythological context," he told him, "then no one will really understand the issue, and the world will end." 
     
     
     
    Based on interviews and advice from leading glacial, ocean, climate, and geographical scientists, and interwoven with personal, historical, and mythological stories, Magnason's response is a rich and compelling work of narrative nonfiction that illustrates the reality of climate change—and offers hope in the face of an uncertain future. Moving from reflections on how one writes an obituary for an iceberg to exhortation for a heightened understanding of human time and our obligations to one another, throughout history and across the globe, On Time and Water is both deeply personal and globally-minded: a travel story, a world history, and a desperate plea to live in harmony with future generations. This is a book unlike anything that has yet been published on the current climate emergency.
