Sinossi

Mountains of America explores the geological origins and ecological significance of the United States' diverse mountain ranges. These majestic landforms are more than scenic backdrops; they profoundly impact our planet, playing vital roles in water cycles, biodiversity, and climate regulation.

 
The book highlights how ranges like the Appalachians, born from ancient continental collisions, contrast with the Rockies, sculpted by more recent tectonic activity and glacial erosion, offering insights into Earth's dynamic processes.

 
The book journeys through various mountain systems, detailing their specific geological histories, characteristic ecosystems, and endemic species. Did you know mountains influence regional weather patterns and act as crucial watersheds? Mountains of America combines geological and ecological insights within an accessible narrative, discussing challenges like climate change and resource extraction while also exploring strategies for sustainable management.

 
The book progresses from fundamental concepts of mountain formation to individual chapters on major mountain systems and concludes with a discussion of the challenges facing mountain ecosystems.

    A New Science of Life

    **The fully revised edition of Rupert Sheldrake's controversial science classic, from the author of the bestselling Dogs That Know When Their Owners are Coming Home, celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2021!**
    
    After chemists crystallised a new chemical for the first time, it became easier and easier to crystallise in laboratories all over the world. After rats at Harvard first escaped from a new kind of water maze, successive generations learned quicker and quicker. Then rats in Melbourne, Australia learned yet faster. Rats with no trained ancestors shared in this improvement.
    
    Rupert Sheldrake sees these processes as examples of morphic resonance. Past forms and activities of organisms, he argues, influence organisms in the present through direct connections across time and space.Individual plants and animals both draw upon and contribute to the collective memory of their species.
    
    Sheldrake, now Director of the Perrott-Warwick Project supported by Trinity College, Cambridge, reinterprets the regularities of nature as being more like habits than immutable laws. Described as 'the best candidate for burning there has been for many years' by Nature on first publication, this updated edition will raise hackles and inspire curiosity in equal measure.

    Understanding Human Evolution

    Human life, and how we came to be, is one of the greatest scientific and philosophical questions of our time. This compact and accessible book presents a modern view of human evolution. Written by a leading authority, it lucidly and engagingly explains not only the evolutionary process, but the technologies currently used to unravel the evolutionary past and emergence of Homo sapiens. By separating the history of palaeoanthropology from current interpretation of the human fossil record, it lays numerous misconceptions to rest, and demonstrates that human evolution has been far from the linear struggle from primitiveness to perfection that we've been led to believe. It also presents a coherent scenario for how Homo sapiens contrived to cross a formidable cognitive barrier to become an extraordinary and unprecedented thinking creature. Understanding Human Evolution is for anyone interested in the complex and tangled story of how we came to be.
