Sinopse

Meat Alternatives explores the burgeoning field of plant-based and synthetic meats, offering a comprehensive look at their potential to transform our food systems and lessen the environmental impact of traditional animal agriculture. The book investigates the science behind alternative protein sources, their environmental consequences, and how consumers are reacting to these new food options.

 
Did you know that conventional meat production significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, deforestation, and water pollution? This book argues that meat alternatives could provide a more sustainable and ethical path forward, though not without challenges.

 
The book uniquely balances the potential benefits and challenges of meat alternatives. It begins by differentiating between plant-based and cell-based (synthetic) meats. It then compares their environmental footprints—greenhouse gas emissions, land use, and water consumption—to those of conventional meats like beef and pork. Later chapters delve into consumer attitudes, market trends, and the regulatory landscape.

 
Ultimately, Meat Alternatives concludes with a discussion on future innovations and the potential to reshape the global food system.

The Backwoods of Everywhere -...

R. E. Burrillo

Throughout personal essays spiked with humor and natural science, archaeologist R. E. Burrillo widens his range beyond his popular Behind the Bears Ears. 
 
 
 
After an upstate New York childhood and a bartending stint in New Orleans's French Quarter, seasonal resort work led R. E. Burrillo to the desert Southwest, whose redrock landscapes were a source of stability through mental and physical illness. In The Backwoods of Everywhere, archaeologist Burrillo excavates his past, examining Indigenous and tourist cultures, the complexities of American archaeology, and what it means to be a local. From the ancient canal systems of Phoenix, Arizona, to the modern Mayan communities of the Yucatan Peninsula, to the depths of the Grand Canyon, Burrillo brings listeners on an entertaining romp chock-full of history, ecology, cultural preservation, and personal stories. 
 
 
 
In the vein of Bill Bryson, Tim Cahill, and Ellen Meloy, Burrillo's is a fresh voice in humor-spiked nature writing and cultural commentary. Running throughout the wide-ranging topics of The Backwoods of Everywhere are themes of place and locality, and how these vary between cultures and individuals. Marrying the intensely personal with the complex and technical, Burrillo's candid voice brings humor, wonder, irony, and wit to each thought-provoking essay.

The Big Bang of Numbers - How to...

Manil Suri

Our universe has multiple origin stories, from religious creation myths to the Big Bang of scientists. But if we leave those behind and start from nothing—no matter, no cosmos, not even empty space—could we create a universe using only math? Irreverent and boundlessly creative, The Big Bang of Numbers invites us to try. 
 
 
 
In this new mathematical origin story, mathematician and novelist Manil Suri creates a natural progression of ideas needed to design our world, starting with numbers and continuing through geometry, algebra, and beyond. He reveals the secret lives of real and imaginary numbers, teaches them to play abstract games with real-world applications, discovers unexpected patterns that connect humble lifeforms to enormous galaxies, and explores mathematical underpinnings for randomness and beauty. With evocative examples ranging from multidimensional crochet to the Mona Lisa's asymmetrical smile, as well as ingenious storytelling that helps illuminate complex concepts like infinity and relativity, The Big Bang of Numbers charts a playful, inventive course to existence. Mathematics, Suri shows, might best be understood not as something we invent to explain Nature, but as the source of all creation, whose directives Nature tries to obey as best she can.

Planta Sapiens - The New Science...

Paco Calvo, Natalie Lawrence

An astonishing window into the inner world of plants, and the cutting-edge science in plant intelligence. 
 
 
 
Decades of research document plants' impressive abilities: they communicate with one another, manipulate other species, and move in sophisticated ways. Lesser known, however, is the new evidence that plants may actually be sentient. Although plants may not have brains, their microscopic commerce exposes a system not unlike the neuronal networks running through our own bodies. They can learn and remember, possessing an intelligence that allows them to behave in adaptive, flexible, anticipatory, and goal-directed ways. 
 
 
 
A leading figure in the philosophy of plant signaling and behavior, Paco Calvo offers an entirely new perspective on plant biology. In Planta Sapiens, he shows for the first time how we can use tools developed in animal cognition studies in a quest to deeply understand plant intelligence. He illuminates how plants inspire technological advancements: from robotics and AI to tackling the ecological crisis. Most importantly, he demonstrates that plants are neither objects nor resources; they are agents in themselves, and for themselves.
