Appalled by the catastrophic decline of the capercaillie in Scotland author Roy Dennis argues a dysfunctional forest habitat is to blame and that Highland cattle can be the solution.
The unexpected comeback of the endangered Everglade snail kite and what it means for other species facing extinction todayWhen a bird of prey known as the Everglade snail kite became hard to find in the wetlands of South Florida where it was once abundant, scientist Hilary Flower sought answers, tracking the kite far from its ancestral home to tell a surprising story of survival and hope.
This book offers a profound examination of how mountain ethnic groups and local communities, particularly those in the Tibetan regions of the Eastern Himalayas, utilize traditional knowledge to confront the growing challenges of climate change.
This book questions the physics of diversity—why diversity happens by itself, why it is a phenomenon that has a mind of its own, and why it opposes any effort of being shoehorned into a few distinct (antagonistic) classes.

The field of evolutionary developmental biology (Evo-Devo) has been profoundly shaped by a handful of classical model organisms — such as Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans, zebrafish, mouse, and Arabidopsis — which have provided fundamental insights into the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying development.
