Sinopse

'Shark vs Dolphin' offers a fascinating exploration of two of the ocean's most successful predators, examining how their distinct evolutionary journeys have shaped their survival strategies and behaviors. Through a systematic comparison of these marine giants, the book reveals how sharks, with their 400-million-year history, have perfected solitary hunting techniques, while dolphins have evolved sophisticated social structures and cognitive abilities over their 50-million-year existence in marine environments.

 
The book skillfully navigates through three main areas: physical adaptations, cognitive capabilities, and hunting methods, supported by recent satellite tracking studies and underwater observations. Readers discover intriguing contrasts, such as sharks' unique electroreception abilities versus dolphins' advanced echolocation systems, while learning how these differences influence their roles in marine ecosystems.

 
The text particularly shines in its analysis of how environmental pressures have produced two equally successful but drastically different approaches to marine predation. Moving from physical characteristics to complex social behaviors, the book presents technical concepts in accessible language, enhanced by detailed diagrams and underwater photography.

 
Drawing from multiple scientific disciplines, including marine biology and behavioral ecology, it offers valuable insights for both students and wildlife enthusiasts while addressing contemporary challenges like climate change and ocean pollution. This comprehensive approach makes the book an essential resource for understanding marine predator evolution and behavior, all while maintaining scientific rigor and engaging storytelling.

    An expansive vision for data equality that goes beyond algorithmic fairness. 
     
    When we gave algorithms power over our world, we hoped that the apparent neutrality of machine thinking would create a more egalitarian age. Yet we are more divided than ever, staring down threats to democracy itself. In Data Equals, Colin Koopman argues that data technologies fail us so often because we built them around a deficient notion of equality. 
     
    It is not enough, Koopman explains, that algorithms engage everyone’s data with the same measuring stick. The data themselves are all too often structured in ways that obscure and exacerbate stratifying distinctions. Koopman contends that we must also work to ensure that those people subject to computational assessment enter data systems on equal terms. Part philosophical argument, part practical guide (replete with case studies from education technology), Data Equals offers novel methods for realizing democratic equality in a digital age.

    The Language of Climate Politics...

    In an illuminating analysis, Dr. Genevieve Guenther shows that the climate debate is not, in fact, neatly polarized, with Republicans obstructing climate action and Democrats advancing climate solutions. Partisans on the right and the left often repeat the same fossil-fuel talking points, and this repetition produces a centrist consensus upholding the status quo, even as global heating accelerates. 
     
     
     
    Weaving this analysis through fascinating critical histories of the terms that dominate the language of climate politics—the words we, alarmist, cost, growth, "India and China," innovation, and resilience—Dr. Guenther shows how this consensus is established. Fossil-fuel interests weaponize the discourses of science, economics, and activism, co-opting and twisting climate language to help greenwash their plans for ongoing extraction. But all too often climate scientists, economists, and even advocates will unwittingly echo the false and dangerous assumptions of their supposed political opponents. This apparent agreement between foes, filtered through the news media, not only influences our commonsense yet mistaken views about the climate crisis but also enables powerful decisionmakers to justify the corporate and policy actions that threaten us all. Revealing this dynamic, Guenther shows how to transform it.
