  Equine-Assisted Therapy -...

  Horses have long been admired for their strength, grace, and beauty, but their role in human healing extends far beyond these physical qualities. Over the years, research and practice have increasingly shown that horses possess a unique ability to promote emotional, psychological, and even physical well-being. Equine-Assisted Therapy (EAT) leverages this connection between humans and horses to foster healing in individuals facing a variety of challenges, from trauma and mental health struggles to physical disabilities. 
  The connection between humans and horses is deeply rooted in history. Horses have been companions to humans for thousands of years, assisting in transportation, agriculture, and warfare. Throughout this history, humans have formed a deep bond with these majestic animals. Today, this bond has evolved into a therapeutic relationship, where horses act as partners in the healing process. Unlike traditional therapies, the equine approach is hands-on, experiential, and often non-verbal, allowing clients to engage in ways that feel natural and safe. 
  One of the most remarkable aspects of horses is their ability to reflect human emotions. Horses are incredibly sensitive animals, capable of picking up on subtle cues such as body language, tone of voice, and even a person’s emotional state. This sensitivity allows horses to act as mirrors, reflecting back emotions that individuals may not be aware of or may have difficulty expressing. This process can be incredibly insightful for clients, offering them an opportunity to better understand and process their emotions.

  "This book is so rich with insights, sparkling dialogue, and wisdom that one would love to distribute it like a leaflet around town."
  
  Südwestrundfunk (German radio station)
  "The intellectual dance that the two dare to dance is intelligent, light, humorous, and enchanting."
  
  Süddeutsche Zeitung (German daily)
  "I recommend this book not only to the cybernetics and systems community, but to anyone."
  
  Ranulph Glanville, Cybernetics and Human Knowing
  "Easy and enjoyable to read, without loss of scientific and philosophical depth and rigor. … The reader will find the book difficult to put down."
  
  Bernd R. Hornung, Journal of Sociocybernetics
  Conversations for skeptics
  
  How real is reality? Are our images of the world mere inventions or do they correspond to an external reality? Is it possible to know the truth?
  
  These are some of the questions that are discussed in this book by physicist and philosopher Heinz von Foerster and media studies scholar Bernhard Poerksen. Together they explore the limits of our cognitive capacities; they debate the apparent objectivity of our sensual perception and the consequences of "truth terrorism"; and they talk about the relationship between knowledge and ethics, sight and insight.
  The authors:
  Heinz von Foerster (1911–2002) completed his studies of physics in Vienna and worked at different research labs before emigrating to the United States in 1949. In 1957, at the University of Illinois, he established the Biological Computer Lab (BCL) – the cradle of the epistemology that would later cause a stir under the label of "constructivism." The focus was on analyzing the logical and methodological problems that in evitably arise when one seeks to know knowledge. He is the author of numerous books, including Understanding Understanding: Essays on Cybernetics and Cognition.
  Bernhard Poerksen is professor of media studies at the University of Tübingen with a particular research interest in the new media age. His books about systemic thinking have been translated into many languages. In 2008 he was voted "Professor of the Year" in honor of his teaching. His most recent book publications in English include From Being to Doing: The Origins of the Biology of Cognition (with Humberto Maturana), The Unleashed Scandal: The End of Control in the Digital Age (with Hanne Detel), and Digital Fever: Taming the Big Business of Disinformation.

  Hydrology - Water's Journey in...

  The water cycle, also known as the hydrological cycle, is a continuous and dynamic process that moves water throughout the Earth's atmosphere, surface, and underground reservoirs. This cycle plays a vital role in sustaining ecosystems, regulating climate, and supporting human life. Water undergoes various transformations as it moves through different stages, driven by the energy of the sun and the force of gravity. 
  One of the fundamental processes of the water cycle is evaporation, where water from oceans, lakes, rivers, and even soil turns into water vapor due to heat from the sun. Plants also contribute to this process through transpiration, where they release moisture from their leaves into the air. Together, these processes add significant amounts of water vapor to the atmosphere. As the air rises and cools, this vapor undergoes condensation, forming clouds composed of tiny water droplets or ice crystals. 
  When these droplets combine and become heavy enough, precipitation occurs in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Precipitation is the primary way water returns to the Earth's surface, replenishing water bodies and providing essential moisture for plant and animal life. Depending on the terrain and environmental conditions, this water can take several different paths. Some of it infiltrates into the ground, recharging underground aquifers in a process known as groundwater recharge. Other portions of the water flow overland as surface runoff, eventually collecting in rivers, lakes, and oceans. This runoff helps shape landscapes by eroding and transporting sediments over time.
