Sinopsis

Snail Sleep Patterns explores the fascinating yet understudied world of sleep in terrestrial snails, revealing the complexities of their rest cycles and the environmental factors that influence them. This book addresses a significant gap in sleep science by focusing on invertebrates, offering fresh perspectives on the evolution and function of sleep, which is often overlooked.

 
One intriguing aspect is how snail sleep patterns can be characterized and quantified using behavioral and physiological measures, providing a foundation for understanding sleep in other species. Another is the profound influence of environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and light on sleep duration and intensity, showcasing the adaptive nature of these biological rhythms.

 
The book progresses systematically, first establishing a foundation in snail biology and sleep science, then delving into laboratory experiments and field observations. It presents original research data and proposes an evolutionary framework for understanding the function of sleep in snails.

 
The book uniquely connects chronobiology, ecology, and neurobiology, with potential implications for understanding the effects of climate change on snail populations. By bridging scientific rigor with accessibility, Snail Sleep Patterns aims to engage a broad audience, from biologists and ecologists to nature enthusiasts.

The God Desire

David Baddiel

From the bestselling author of Jews Don’t Count
‘ A hugely heartfelt, funny, kind, fascinating, human and clever book ’ ALAIN DE BOTTON
‘ Magnificent. Breathtaking. And shockingly rare … another one-sitting wonder’ STEPHEN FRY
David Baddiel would love there to be a God. He has spent a lot of time fantasising about how much better life would be if there actually was such a thing as a Superhero Dad who chased off Death. Unfortunately for him, there isn’t. Or at least, that is Baddiel’s view in this book, which argues that it is indeed the very intensity of his, and everyone else’s, desire for God to exist that proves His non-existence. Anything so deeply wished-for we will, considers Baddiel, make real. The admission of his own divine yearnings makes for a book that is more vulnerable – and more understanding of the value and power of religion – than most atheist polemics. A philosophical essay that utilises Baddiel’s trademarks of comedy, storytelling and personal asides, The God Desire offers a highly readable new perspective on the most ancient of debates.
David Baddiel's The God Desire is a Sunday Times bestseller that offers a unique blend of humour and philosophy. This autobiography, presented in the form of engaging essays, explores the topic of atheism, making it a top choice for readers seeking a fresh perspective on non-fiction memoirs.
For fans of Dara Horn (People Love Dead Jews), Robin Dunbar (How Religion Evolved), John Updike (Self-Consciousness), Dave Rich (Everyday Hate), and Alastair Campbell (But What Can I Do?).
