Sinopse

"Physical Senses: A Comparative Study of Sensory Perception in Humans and Animals" offers a fascinating exploration of how different species experience and interact with their environment through various sensory systems. This comprehensive work examines the evolutionary journey that has shaped diverse sensory capabilities across species, from simple touch receptors to sophisticated neural networks, revealing how different organisms have developed specialized adaptations for survival in their unique ecological niches.

 
The book masterfully progresses from foundational concepts of sensory mechanics to complex comparative analyses, examining each major sense—touch, taste, smell, hearing, and vision—through the lens of both human and animal capabilities. Drawing on cutting-edge neuroimaging studies and behavioral experiments, it illuminates remarkable adaptations like echolocation in bats and electroreception in sharks, while explaining how basic sensory mechanisms are shared across species yet modified by evolutionary pressures.

 
Through a systematic, evidence-based approach, the text bridges multiple disciplines, connecting sensory biology with evolutionary theory and cognitive psychology. What sets this work apart is its comprehensive examination of both vertebrate and invertebrate species, coupled with its accessibility to readers with basic scientific knowledge. The inclusion of recent technological advances in sensory research and neural monitoring makes this an invaluable resource for understanding how different organisms perceive and process information from their environment, with practical applications ranging from medical treatment of sensory disorders to bio-inspired technological innovations.

    The Digital Factory - The Human...

    The Digital Factory reveals the hidden human labor that supports today’s digital capitalism. 
      
    The workers of today’s digital factory include those in Amazon warehouses, delivery drivers, Chinese gaming workers, Filipino content moderators, and rural American search engine optimizers. Repetitive yet stressful, boring yet often emotionally demanding, these jobs require little formal qualification, but can demand a large degree of skills and knowledge. This work is often hidden behind the supposed magic of algorithms and thought to be automated, but it is in fact highly dependent on human labor. 
      
    The workers of today’s digital factory are not as far removed from a typical auto assembly line as we might think. Moritz Altenried takes us inside today’s digital factories, showing that they take very different forms, including gig economy platforms, video games, and Amazon warehouses. As Altenried shows, these digital factories often share surprising similarities with factories from the industrial age. As globalized capitalism and digital technology continue to transform labor around the world, Altenried offers a timely and poignant exploration of how these changes are restructuring the social division of labor and its geographies as well as the stratifications and lines of struggle.

    North York Moors and Yorkshire...

    This book is one of a popular series that seeks to tell the story of some of Britain's most beautiful landscapes. Written with the general reader – the walker, the lover of the countryside – firmly in mind, these pages open the door to a fascinating story of bygone oceans, deltas, mineralisation and glacial landscapes.
    Millions of years ago, rocks that now form the lovely terrains of the Moors and Wolds were laid down on the floors of shallow seas, and were then deformed by plate tectonics before being shaped by streams and rivers. The sandstones were left to form the high Moors, whereas the chalk was carved into the rolling Wolds. Ice Age lakes came and went, and all the time wave action was fretting the coastline into glorious and varied profiles.
    With the help of numerous maps, diagrams and photographs, most of which are taken from his personal collection, geologist Tony Waltham tells the fascinating story of eastern Yorkshire, explaining just how the landscapes of sandstone uplands, chalk hills and clay vales came to look as they do. Including suggestions for walks and places to visit to appreciate the best of the inland and coastal landforms, this accessible and readable book opens up amazing new perspectives for all who are interested in the diverse landscapes of this beautiful area.
