Sinopsis

In 'Our Vanishing Wild Life: Its Extermination and Preservation' by William T. Hornaday, readers are taken on a poignant journey through the devastation of wildlife populations in the late 19th century. Hornaday's combination of scientific expertise and passionate advocacy shines through in his detailed accounts of various species facing extinction due to human activities. Written in a clear and accessible style, the book serves as both a call to action and a compelling piece of environmental literature, highlighting the urgent need for conservation efforts. Hornaday's work contributes to the growing awareness of environmental issues in the literary context of the time, shedding light on the crucial role of humans in the preservation of wildlife. His thorough research and heartfelt pleas for conservation make this book a powerful and influential work in the field of wildlife preservation. I highly recommend 'Our Vanishing Wild Life' to readers interested in the intersection of literature, conservation, and environmental activism.

    The five and a half month long Somme campaign in the summer and autumn of 1916 was a defining moment in the history of the British Army. From the disastrous opening day on 1 July to the final attacks in November, each large battle and minor action is given equal treatment inside these pages.The book concentrates on the British Army's repeated efforts to first break through the enemy lines,and then to wear down the German in a bloody war of attrition. By compiling information from the Official History and the printed histories we get a balanced view of the most talked about side of the campaign, the British side.You will find plenty of information on the reasoning behind each battle and the objectives. There is discussion on artillery bombardments, tactics, zero hours, the terrain and insights into the successes and failures of each attack. Over ninety new maps chart the day by day progress of Fourth and the Reserve Armyacross the rolling chalk downs of the Somme.Together the narrative and mapsprovide an insight into the British Army's learning curve during that fateful summer; a learning curve which set the scene for future battles on the Western Front. We can see the hard lessons learnt and the solutions used to solve a multitude of problems, from communication and all arms co-operation, to the inclusion of tanks and the growing role of the Royal Flying Corps.Where possible the men who made a difference are mentioned; the men who lead the assault companies and bombing teams, those who cut the wire and led the survivors into the German trenches, those who stopped the counterattacks and those awarded the Victoria Cross.Discover the real Somme campaign fought by the British Army and learn how its brave soldiers fought hard to achieve their objectives.

    An estimated 80 million people live with a neurodegenerative disease, with this number expected to double by 2050. Despite decades of research and billions in funding, there are no medications that can slow, much less stop, the progress of these diseases. The time to rethink degenerative brain disorders has come.With no biological boundaries between neurodegenerative diseases, illnesses such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's result from a large spectrum of biological abnormalities, hampering effective treatment. Acclaimed neurologist Dr. Alberto Espay and Parkinson's advocate Benjamin Stecher present compelling evidence that these diseases should be targeted according to genetic and molecular signatures rather than clinical diagnoses. There is no Parkinson's or Alzheimer's, simply people with Parkinson's or Alzheimer's. An incredibly important story never before told, Brain Fables is a wakeup call to the scientific community and society, explaining why we have no effective disease-modifying treatments, and how we can get back on track.
