Sinopsis

Goose Facts explores the captivating world of geese, from their sophisticated flight formations to their impressive navigational skills. Geese exemplify a blend of instinct and learned behavior, allowing them to thrive in diverse environments.

The book synthesizes decades of research, examining the physics and aerodynamics of geese flight, their cognitive abilities, and the ecological factors influencing migration. It reveals how geese have inspired aerodynamic studies and serve as indicators of ecosystem health.

 
The book progresses from introducing geese as model organisms to exploring flight formations, cognitive abilities, and ecological influences, culminating in a discussion of conservation implications. This comprehensive approach integrates findings from diverse fields, offering a holistic understanding of geese suitable for students, researchers, and anyone interested in nature.

 
By understanding the factors influencing geese migration, conservation efforts can be better informed, protecting habitats and mitigating the impacts of climate change.

Spotting Danger Before It Spots...

Gary Dean Quesenberry, Lt. Col....

Spotting danger before it happens is a skill that can be developed and may even save your life.

Understand the threat

Build situational awareness

Develop personal defenses

A mother dropping her teenager off at the mall, a young man leaving home for college, a family about to head out on their first trip overseas. What do all of these people have in common? They all have a vested interest in their personal security and the wellbeing of those they love. According to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Report, there were an estimated 1.25 million violent crimes committed in the United States in 2018.

Make no mistake; in a world filled with crime and violence, you are your own last line of defense.

Continuing on the path of The Gift of Fear (Gavin deBecker), Spotting Danger Before It Spots You, author Gary Quesenberry breaks down the basic techniques necessary to help you develop good situational awareness and increase your levels of personal safety. Gary calls upon his extensive background as a Federal Air Marshal and defensive tactics instructor to explain these methods in simple terms that will greatly improve your general understanding of how, when and where violence occurs. He will then take the next critical step—providing you with the tools you need to properly identify and evade danger before it ever has a chance to materialize.

You will learn

The common traits of predatory behavior

How to conduct a personal “safety check”

How to develop strong awareness skills

What to do when you spot potential trouble

Staying safe and living life free of worry and fear

“Today more than ever, it is imperative that we pay close attention to our surroundings and learn how to interpret what’s happening around us. Tragic events can often be both predictable and preventable.” — Federal Air Marshal Gary Quesenberry

Natural Processes in Textile Art...

Alice Fox

More and more textile artists are using natural processes in their work, from dyeing with rust to working with found and scavenged items, and this book is the first to bring these increasingly popular techniques together. It promotes a way of working creatively with what is close at hand, whether gathered on walks by the seashore or collected in your garden, and working in tune with natural processes, bringing the rhythms and unpredictability of nature into your work.
Examples of this type of working include rust dyeing embroidered fabric to give it a natural patina, dyeing with garden fruits or seaweed, weaving with pieces of beachcombed fibre and printing with found objects. In all of this work nature is directly harnessed to make its mark.
The book is illustrated with the finest examples of contemporary embroidery and textile-art work using nature, by artists whose practice is tied up with their experience of and respect for the natural environment, often capturing a very strong sense of place and a feeling of calmness and contemplation.
