Beschreibung

Sloth Facts explores the unique biology and ecological adaptations of sloths, those famously slow-moving arboreal mammals. Delving into their evolutionary journey from larger, ground-dwelling ancestors, the book highlights how their slow metabolism isn't a disadvantage, but a successful strategy for survival. One intriguing insight is their symbiotic relationships with algae and moths, which provide camouflage and nutrients. The book emphasizes the importance of understanding sloths as indicators of environmental health and the need for their conservation.

 
The book's approach is to present complex scientific concepts, like metabolism and symbiosis, in an accessible manner. It investigates the physiological adaptations that drive their slow movement, such as their specialized digestive systems and low body temperatures. By drawing from diverse scientific research in physiology, ecology, and zoology, Sloth Facts paints a comprehensive picture of sloth life.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the two extant sloth genera, then exploring their unique physiological adaptations, vital symbiotic relationships, and finally, the conservation challenges they face due to habitat loss and climate change.

The View from the Shoulder - A...

Roger Cox

The story of surfing in Scotland is defined by people who dared to dream in spite of the cold, from Neva MacDonald-Haig and the coffin-lid surfers of Machrihanish, who first took to the waves off the west coast in the 1930s with a little help from a local undertaker, to Andy Bennetts and the pioneers of the 1960s, who discovered many of the nation's best breaks, to contemporary big wave surfer Ben Larg, a native of the tiny island of Tiree who now travels the world riding skyscraper-sized walls of water for a living.
Scotland is also home to a rich and distinctive surfing culture, with its own surfboard shapers, surf instructors, surf filmmakers, surf photographers and surf fashion brands, not to mention surf-inspired artists and musicians. Professional contests held at some of Scotland's best waves have drawn visits from surfing world champions including Tom Curren, Sunny Garcia and John John Florence, and in recent years Scotland's own surfers have begun to make their presence felt on the competitive stage, with the Scottish surf team featuring at the World Surfing Games and at Eurosurf after finally gaining official recognition in 2014.
The View From the Shoulder draws together 20 years of surf journalism from the pages of The Scotsman newspaper, together with fresh context, to create a portrait of a wave-riding community like no other.

Saying NO to a Farm-Free Future...

Chris Smaje

A defense of agroecological, small-scale farming and a robust critique of an industrialized future.  
As a breakdown of the climate, state power and globalized markets pushes us toward an epochal transition, Chris Smaje offers us a hopeful vision of a relocalized, self-sufficient world.—David Bollier  
One of the few voices to challenge The Guardian's George Monbiot on the future of food and farming (and the restoration of nature) is academic, farmer and author of A Small Farm Future Chris Smaje. In Saying NO to a Farm-Free Future, Smaje presents his defense of small-scale farming and a robust critique of Monbiot’s vision for an urban and industrialized future.  
Responding to Monbiot’s portrayal of an urban, high-energy, industrially manufactured food future as the answer to our current crises, and its unchallenged acceptance within the environmental discourse, Smaje was compelled to challenge Monbiot’s evidence and conclusions. At the same time, Smaje presents his powerful counterargument – a low-carbon agrarian localism that puts power in the hands of local communities, not high-tech corporates.  
In the ongoing fight for our food future, this book will help you to understand the difference between a congenial, ecological living and a dystopian, factory-centered existence. A must-read!
