Rewilding
De vernieuwende wetenschap van ecologisch herstelEen groeiende groep mensen houdt zich bezig met rewilding. Dit is een vernieuwende vorm van natuurherstel, waarbij ecologen zich bezighouden met het herstel van de verloren gegane interacties tussen dieren, planten en natuurlijke verstoringen, die de essentie vormen van bloeiende ecosystemen. In Rewilding beschrijven de twee belangrijkste wetenschappers op dit gebied, Paul Jepson en Cain Blythe, op een toegankelijke manier de ecologische en historische achtergronden, geïllustreerd door prachtige natuurhistorische beelden, gecombineerd met infographics en stroomdiagrammen. Ze beantwoorden tevens vragen over de rol van megafauna bij rewilding, beschrijven vier belangrijke projecten op dit gebied, waaronder die van de Oostvaarderplassen, geven aan hoe belangrijk het is om het publiek te betrekken en hoe dat kan en staan ze stil bij ethische aspecten van rewilding. Tenslotte doen ze tien voorspellingen voor een gerewilde planeet, waarin plaats is voor mens, en soorten als wilde paarden en runderen, wolven en bevers. De auteurs Paul Jepson is projectleider Natuurherstel bij Ecosulis Ltd en was tot voor kort directeur van de Masters-opleiding van Oxford University in biodiversiteit, natuurbehoud en natuurbeheer. Hij heeft veel gepubliceerd over rewilding-beleid en actiefilosofie, en is lid van de raad van toezicht van Rewilding Europe. Cain Blythe is algemeen directeur van Ecosulis Ltd en is gespecialiseerd in het herstel van habitats, met name door de toepassing van natuurlijke regeneratietechnieken, natuurherstel en het gebruik van technologie bij natuurbehoud. Momenteel draagt hij bij aan een aantal monitoringproeven met betrekking tot de reïntroductie van bevers in Engeland en Wales

His work is held in permanent collections which include the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Art Institute of Chicago, Smithsonian Museum of American Art, and National Gallery of Art (both DC), Maison Européenne de la Photographie (Paris), Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, Whitney Museum of American Art (NY), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and Museum of Fine Arts (Houston).

Amelie - Die Geschichte eines Hundes
Mark Twain schrieb mit "A Dog's Tale" (Die Geschichte eines Hundes) eine rührende Geschichte aus der Perspektive einer Hündin.Sie lernt viel von ihrer Hundemutter, die dadurch berühmt wird, dass sie anderen Hunden Menschenbegriffe beibringt; ihre scheinbare Bildung ist jedoch nur eine geschickte Täuschung und Wichtigtuerei. Bereits als junge Hündin, wird sie von ihrer Mutter getrennt und in eine scheinbar wundervolle und liebevolle Familie verkauft. Dort erlebt sie viel Glück und entwickelt eine herrliche Freundschaft mit der Tochter der Familie, ebenso passt sie gerne auf das einjährige Kleinkind der Familie auf.Nach einem schrecklichen Brand im Kinderzimmer und einer Züchtigung durch ihr Herrchen, weil er denkt, sie sei daran schuld, lernt sie das Labor ihres Züchtigers kennen und erfährt völlig unerwartet, was wirklich in ihrer Familie geschieht und warum sie eigentlich dort lebt.

Handbook of Nature Study
Did you know that this classic was still in print? Focused on the northeast U.S., this book describes a wonderful diversity of basic natural history. (Ecology) Quality field guides will enrich your nature encounters. A comprehensive resource is Anna Botsford Comstock's Handbook of Nature Study. - Malinda S. Zellman (Bay Area Parent) Although many readers in the chemical, biological and physical disciplines will profit by the publication of this book, I feel that biologists stand to gain the most. For most biological scientists this book will open up a new scientific world... Chemists, physical chemists and chemical physicists who are considering entering the biological field will also find the book helpful because of the large amount of biological data and the large number of applications to biological processes reviewed. Highly recommended! (The Quarterly Review of Biology) Where else but in this 3-lb., 900-page paperback can students find so many answers to their endless questions - about animals, plants, rocks and minerals, climate and weather, and about the skies at night - that is, about one's environment? No other natural history handbook has been as popular with grade school, high school, and college students. First appearing in 1911, it has been republished dozens of times, for the most part with little change other than updating. (Science Books and Films)
