Sinossi

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.

 
For instance, their V-shaped flight formations reduce energy expenditure through cooperative flight, and they possess remarkable spatial memory crucial for navigating migratory routes. 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.

Splinters of Infinity - Cosmic...

Mark Wolverton

Set in a revolutionary era of physics and science when a series of rapid-fire discoveries was upending our understanding of the universe, Splinters of Infinity by Mark Wolverton tells a little-known story: the tale of two of America's foremost physicists, Robert Millikan (1868–1953) and Arthur Compton (1892–1962), who found themselves locked in an intense, often deeply personal, conflict about cosmic rays. Confirmed in 1912, cosmic rays—enigmatic forms of penetrating radiation—seemed to raise all new questions about the origins of the universe, but they also offered the potential to explain everything—or reveal the existence of God. 
 
 
 
In engaging, accessible prose, Wolverton takes the listener through the twists and turns of the Millikan-Compton debate, one of the first major public examples of how heated the controversies among scientists could become—and the lengths that scientists would go to settle their disputes. Along the way, Wolverton probes the forever elusive question, still unanswered today, about where cosmic rays come from and what they reveal about black holes, distant galaxies, the existence of dark matter and dark energy, and the birth of the universe, concluding that these splinters of infinity may not hold the keys to the secret of creation but do bring us ever closer to it.

A Relational Response to Climate...

Calum Samuelson

About Relationships and Climate ChangeThe challenge of climate change is one of the defining issues the world is facing at the start of the 2020s. It has mobilised a whole new generation of social activists, some of whom are going to extreme lengths to confront the public and especially political leaders with the threat that climate change makes to their future and the planet as a whole.Arguments about the causes of climate change are usually underpinned by the assumption that more human beings living on the planet are inevitably bad for the environment and climate. However, a careful biblical reflection on these issues yields a more nuanced and hopeful view, and this report seeks to stimulate fresh conversations about how best to respond to Climate Change now and in the future.
