Sinopse

"Nature vs. Nurture" explores the complex relationship between our genes and our environment, moving beyond the simplistic idea that one is more important than the other. The book examines how genetic inheritance and environmental influences interact to shape our traits, behaviors, and development. For instance, twin and adoption studies help reveal how much of a particular trait is attributable to genetics versus upbringing. Understanding this interplay is crucial for comprehending human health and behavior, and the book highlights how genes provide a blueprint, while the environment determines how that blueprint is executed.

 
The book takes a multidisciplinary approach, drawing insights from psychology, biology, and life sciences. It delves into topics like gene-environment interaction, epigenetics, and heritability to demonstrate how they influence everything from disease susceptibility to personality variations.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with fundamental concepts and moving to specific examples, challenges, and ethical considerations. Ultimately, "Nature vs. Nurture" emphasizes practical applications, such as personalized medicine and early childhood interventions, making it valuable for anyone interested in the science of human behavior.

    'My mother was an oak treemy dad a garage mechanicMy father was a field of wheatmy mother the Prime MinisterMy mother was an innkeeperand my father a lonely cactus…'
    Suzannah Evans' new pamphlet introduces us to Green, half human, half angry nature spirit. Green serves as a stunt double for our own rage and complicity in nature's destruction. He shows us nature's delights so we may mourn their loss more deeply.
    'In this delicious mini-biography of the mythic figure, Suzannah Evans has conjured up a Green Man – now modishly monikered 'Green' – who is witness, listener, accountant, cheerleader, of all and every aspect of nature. An inveterate listicle maker, he can't help but nag us until our attention is drawn back inexorably to the wonder of the world; it's nightmares too. Whether he is supervising extinctions, lavender farming, or picking up plastic litter on the beach, Green is unabashedly a fun, wry and playful personality to spend some time with.' Rishi Dastidar
    'Green is a contemporary secular canticle, where matter and living beings are in mischievous, polyphonic dialogue. Channelled through this beyond-human figure, it presents a decentred ecology where "Green isn't rooting for anyone" – but where we must find a way to befriend 'him', without turning him into a 'man'. Earth is lively and re-enchanted, in Green's contemporary and accessible animism. We are invited to accept the majesty of llama memes alongside the 'death drop' of species extinction. Fuck you, Green says to the wasps, stinging him all over, I still love you. A gentle, passionate, good-natured plea, for even the stickiest, ickiest, grossest creatures to be named in Green's – and humanity's – affections.' Caleb Parkin

    National Bestseller 
    Don’t despair. Don’t retreat. Fight back. 
    A call-to-action for Democrats, moderate Republicans, and other anti-Trump dissenters, detailing the history of social and political policies, how Obama treated them, how Trump has the power to undermine them, and what people can do to fight back. 
    The stunning election of Donald J. Trump rocked an already divided America and left scores of citizens, including the nearly sixty-five million voters who supported Hillary Clinton, feeling bereft and powerless. Now, Gene Stone, author of The Bush Survival Bible, offers invaluable guidance and concrete solutions the resistance can use to make a difference in this serious call-to-arms—showing them how to move from anger and despair to activism against the Trump presidency and its potentially lasting effects on our democracy.   
    Before we can successfully engage, we need to be clear about the battles we face. Stone outlines political and social concepts—including such issues as Civil Rights, Women’s Rights, the Environment, Obamacare, International relations, and LGBTQ Rights—providing a brief history of each, a refresher on Obama's policies over his eight years in office, and an analysis of how Trump’s administration is threatening them. But lest we feel overwhelmed by the scale of the threat and settle for aimless outrage, Stone then provides an invaluable guide for fighting back—referring to organizations, people, sites, and countless other resources that are working tirelessly to restore the power of the people, safeguard our democracy, and ensure that none of us are left behind in our quest for relentless and equitable progress. 
    While marches and social media are important forms of protest, concrete actions that achieve real and measurable change are a vital part of the fight. Positive and reinforcing, The Trump Survival Guide presents the essential information we need to effectively make our voices heard and our power felt, during the Trump presidency and beyond.

    A heart-warming memoir of leaving the city behind to build a new life among the wild beauty of the Hebrides.When Fiona is given an old family ledger, she has no idea it will redirect the course of her life. With her husband, children, dogs and elderly father in tow, she exchanges the pressures of city living for sea air, open skies and a remote croft on a wave-washed island off the coast of Argyll.Here, life is shaped by the land and the needs of 48 magnificent Highland cows. From the intensity of calving season to the long, vigilance of winter, the rhythms of the herd dictate each day. As Fiona learns to care for them, she begins to see the world differently, guided less by certainty than by instinct, patience and a deepening awareness to the living world around her.Over the turning seasons, what begins as a leap into the unknown becomes something steadier and more profound. In raising her cattle, Fiona finds herself drawn into a deeper kind of knowing, one that binds her to the landscape and draws her towards a sense of belonging she had never expected to find.Warm, richly evocative and uplifting, Wild Knowing is a story of starting again, of what animals can teach us, and of finding home in the most unexpected of places.
