Sinopse

Alpine Flower Survival explores the remarkable resilience and ingenuity of alpine flora, thriving in some of Earth’s most extreme environments. The book delves into how these delicate flowers endure harsh conditions like freezing temperatures, thin air, and relentless winds through unique adaptations such as dwarfism, hairy stems for insulation, and antifreeze proteins. It also highlights their critical role in mountain ecosystems, from stabilizing slopes to supporting intricate pollination networks and soil microbial communities.  
The book uniquely bridges scientific research and Indigenous knowledge, offering a holistic view of alpine ecosystems. It examines the growing threats posed by climate change, such as shifting temperature gradients and invasive species, while proposing practical conservation strategies.  
Through vivid storytelling and accessible language, it connects cellular-level adaptations to broader ecological dynamics, making complex concepts relatable.  
By combining cutting-edge science with traditional wisdom, Alpine Flower Survival not only celebrates the beauty and resilience of high-altitude flora but also underscores the urgent need to protect these fragile habitats in a rapidly changing world. It’s a compelling read for ecologists, conservationists, and anyone fascinated by the intersection of biology and environmental science.

    A global exploration of the eight remaining species of bears—and the dangers they face. 
     
     
     
    Bears have always held a central place in our collective memory, from Indigenous folklore and Greek mythology to nineteenth-century fairytales and the modern toy shop. But as humans and bears come into ever-closer contact, our relationship nears a tipping point. Today, most of the eight remaining bear species are threatened with extinction. Some, such as the panda bear and the polar bear, are icons of the natural world; others, such as the spectacled bear and the sloth bear, are far less known. 
     
     
     
    In Eight Bears, journalist Gloria Dickie embarks on a globe-trotting journey to explore each bear's story, whisking listeners from the cloud forests of the Andes to the ice floes of the Arctic; from the jungles of India to the backwoods of the Rocky Mountain West. She meets with key figures on the frontlines of modern conservation efforts—the head of a rescue center for sun and moon bears freed from bile farms, a biologist known as Papa Panda, who has led China's panda-breeding efforts for almost four decades, a conservationist retraining a military radar system to detect and track polar bears near towns—to reveal the unparalleled challenges bears face as they contend with a rapidly changing climate and encroaching human populations.
