Beschreibung

Biology (Greek, bios, life; logos, discourse) means the science of life. It treats of animals and plants. That branch of biology which treats of animals is called zoology (Gr. zoon, animal; logos, discourse). The biological science of botany (Gr. botane, plant or herb) treats of plants.
Living things are distinguished from the not living by a series of processes, or changes (feeding, growth, development, multiplication, etc.), which together constitute what is called life. These processes are called functions. Both plants and animals have certain parts called organs which have each a definite work, or function; hence animals and plants are said to be organized. For example, men and most other animals have a certain organ (the mouth) for taking in nourishment; another (the food tube), for its digestion.

    This beautifully illustrated overview of the wildlife of the British Isles showcases the diversity of our plant and animal life. 
    Wild Isles is a celebration of the wildlife found on a relatively modest collection of islands positioned at a latitude so northerly to be unattractive to many animals and plants. Despite these unpromising foundations, the islands of Britain and Ireland, together with more than 6,000 lesser islets that make up our archipelago, contain some of the most diverse, beautiful and wildlife-rich landscapes and seas on our planet. 
    This book will explore the fascinating relationships within and between species who make their home on our beautiful isles. 
    Each chapter focuses on a particular kind of wild space. Britain and Ireland are dominated by a wide variety of grasslands from lowland water meadows to upland moors, and we will see how these human-shaped, semi-natural landscapes thrum with insect, bird and mammal life. Life requires water to flourish, and streams and rivers carry freshwater through our landscape, creating unique ecosystems and interrelations within and beside these waters, which are revealed in a third section. While Britain and Ireland’s woodlands are comparatively thin on the ground compared with most of continental Europe, we will see some of the forests and trees that remain are unusually ancient and, great repositories of life. Finally, of course, we are surrounded by sea, and our position on the continental shelf before it plunges into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean gives rise to an often overlooked plenty of marine life. A glorious richness divided into five breathtaking sections. 
    In Wild Isles, the latest Sunday Times bestselling book by Patrick Barkham, the beauty and diversity of nature in the British Isles are brought to life. Through stunning photography and engaging narrative, Barkham explores the various habitats and the intricate ecology that defines them. 
    For fans of Martin Stevens (Sensory Ecology, Behaviour, and Evolution), Jonnie Hughes (Earthshot), Josh Young (Expedition Deep Ocean), Matt Kaplan (The Science of Monsters), and Nigel Henbest (Philip's Stargazing 2024 Month-by-Month Guide to the Night Sky Britain & Ireland).

    A note from the creator: “I spent months living in a bustling residential neighborhood in the city of Amsterdam, far from the tourist crowds. From a large third-floor window, I grew deeply attached to the city’s nonstop sounds - foreign voices drifting past, youthful laughter, hundreds of bicycles riding on by, trams tinkering along, street crossing beeps, and repetitive traffic humming. Since I left, I realized that part of my love for the city was simply the comfort of those sounds. I’ll never tire of them and the nostalgia they bring. I hope these city soundscapes bring you the same calm and quiet sense of safety that they invoke in me.” 
    Maybe you live in a city? Or perhaps you left long-ago and you miss the comfort of its constant, soothing hums? 
    Each chapter in this audiobook is crafted from real-world recordings, layered and mastered by a professional audio engineer who has previously worked on major video-game sound projects, ensuring ultra-high sound quality and precision. 
    Inside this 16-hour journey, you’ll find yourself in cafés, train stations, trams, rain-soaked streets, day and night settings, skyscraper rooftops, and more — see which one is your favorite and put it on repeat! No harsh peaks or distracting narrationDesigned to play continuously overnightFiltered and edited to perfection - so sirens and traffic won’t wake you. Works as background ambience while working or studyingFrom the creators of other popular soundscape audiobooksHelps you sleep, meditate, or clear your mind.

    Eggs are the origins of ninety percent of the Earth's organisms. They can be found as far apart as deep-sea volcanoes and in space. Yet despite their fundamental importance, eggs often find themselves an afterthought in the discussion of evolution of life on Earth as the interests of scientists congregate around the things that emerge from eggs rather than the eggs themselves. 
     
     
     
    In Infinite Life, Jules Howard explains—with great passion, authority, expertise, and infectious enthusiasm—why it's time to give eggs their moment in the spotlight: it is the eggs that can teach us new and surprising lessons about Earth's history, the trials of life, and the exceptional ways in which natural selection operates to propagate the survival of individual species. 
     
     
     
    Infinite Life: The Revolutionary Story of Eggs, Evolution, and Life on Earth, offers a wholly new perspective on the animal kingdom, and, indeed, life on Earth. By examining eggs from their earliest histories to the very latest fossilized discoveries—encompassing the myriad changes and mutations of eggs from the evolution of yolk, to the hard eggshells of lost dinosaurs, to the animals that have evolved to simultaneously give birth to eggs and live young—Howard reveals untold stories of great diversity and majesty to shed light on the huge impact that egg science has on our lives.

    The Superluminal Universe reveals, for the first time in English, the incredible insights of French quantum physicist Professor Régis Dutheil. Thanks to the development of particle accelerators, physicists are now able to propel particles (tachyons) at a speed close to that of light (300,000 km per second). At these extreme speeds, the laws that govern our universe no longer apply. Professor Dutheil's work has shown that the theory of relativity is not incompatible with that of tachyons, provided that we allow for the possibility of a double reality: that alongside our sub-luminous universe, which follows the law of time, is a superluminal universe. This second reality is another universe, complementary to and symmetrical with ours, governed by superluminal space-time in which light moves 300,000 km/s to infinity. 
     
     
     
    In the superluminal universe, everything is instantaneous. It is possible to conceive of a superluminal being capable of moving from one end of space to the other. This parallel universe consists only of information and consciousness: all information (past, present, future) and the consciousness of all humanity. Professor Dutheil's thesis joins the intuitions of ancient philosophers with current quantum physics to blow our current notions of time, of past and present, of the nature of consciousness, of birth and death right out of the water.
