  Domestication of Dogs and Cats...

  Editors Charles River

  As the oft-repeated and invariably accurate pearl of wisdom goes, a dog truly is man's best friend. For a long time, people have almost universally loved dogs, and it seems to have been that way for at least tens of thousands of years. When affection is abundantly and consistently expressed, this pure, unspoken, wholesome love is one that is very much requited, and then some. This bond can be demonstrated by the mere existence of pet keepers who unironically refer to themselves as “dog parents,” not merely “dog owners.” 
  Of course, this camaraderie between man and dog did not materialize overnight. Quite the contrary, the relationship between people and dogs gradually evolved and steadily strengthened over several millennia, following a premise best summed up by the dog's metamorphosis from a predator to a lifelong companion. Apart from friendship and companionship, dogs may have been the first animal to be domesticated, and they have been trained to provide loyal and competent service in a variety of fields, ranging from seeing-eye dogs to vest-wearing police partners, among other lines of work. 
  People's obsession with felines is an enigma in and of itself. Unlike dogs, famously known as man's most excitable, trustworthy, and loyal friend, cats are oftentimes indifferent, guarded, and yet finicky little furry creatures who only yearn for attention and affection when one is neck-deep in work or otherwise preoccupied. And still, people adore them all the same. 
  In a recent poll that surveyed 600 American college students, 60% of the participants identified themselves as “dog lovers,” whereas only 11% pledged their love for cats. The remaining 29% regarded themselves as fans of both critters or fans of neither. Be that as it may, there is said to be anywhere between a staggering 88=94 million pet cats in the United States alone, which eclipses the roughly 84-90 million pet dogs in the country.

  Species are going extinct, forests are burning, and children are worried about the future and their peers worldwide. But that is not the whole story: One Friday in 2018, a few young people joined Greta Thunberg to protest, and the global climate strike movement was born. Scientist David Fopp spent 250 Fridays with the newly formed grassroots movements. Together with activists Isabelle Axelsson and Loukina Tille, he offers an insider perspective on how scientists and activists can fight for a just and sustainable global society. The volume also offers both an introduction to ecophilosophy and a unified science of democracy in times of interdependent crises. How can research in all disciplines - from (drama) education and economics to psychology - help with this struggle? And how can we all fight the climate crisis by transforming and deepening democracy?

  ""The Romance of Modern Chemistry" is a fascinating glimpse into the state of chemistry a century ago. Written by James C. Philip, PhD, an assistant professor of chemistry at The Imperial College of Science and Technology, Kensington, this book provides a non-technical description of the diverse and wonderful ways in which chemical forces were at work and their manifold applications in modern life back in 191012.    Imagine the scientific discoveries, the alchemical transformations, and the intricate dance of atoms and molecules as they shaped the world around us. Philip's prose invites readers to explore the hidden magic within everyday substances—their reactions, properties, and practical uses.    From the bubbling test tubes in laboratories to the industrial processes that fueled progress, The Romance of Modern Chemistry captures the essence of an era when science was both mysterious and awe-inspiring. It's a journey through the alchemy of knowledge, where elements danced, compounds whispered secrets, and the periodic table unfolded its enigmatic patterns.    So let us step into the past, don our metaphorical lab coats, and embark on a literary experiment—an adventure where curiosity meets discovery, and the molecules of imagination collide with the atoms of wonder.
