Animal Liberation PDF By:Peter Singer Published on 2015-10-01 by Random House How should we treat non-human animals? In this immensely powerful and influential book (now with a new introduction by Sapiens author Yuval Noah Harari), the renowned moral philosopher Peter Singer addresses this simple question with trenchant, dispassionate reasoning. Accompanied by the disturbing evidence of factory farms and laboratories, his answers triggered the birth of the animal rights movement. 'An extraordinary book which has had extraordinary effects... Widely known as the bible of the animal liberation movement' Independent on Sunday In the decades since this landmark classic first appeared, some public attitudes to animals may have changed but our continued abuse of animals in factory farms and as tools for research shows that the underlying ideas Singer exposes as ethically indefensible are still dominating the way we treat animals. As Yuval Harari’s brilliantly argued introduction makes...

As Kingfishers Catch Fire PDF By:Alex Preston,Neil Gower Published on 2017-07-13 by Corsair 'A magical book: an inimitable fusion of ornithology, literary anthology and autobiography.' Tom Holland When Alex Preston was 15, he stopped being a birdwatcher. Adolescence and the scorn of his peers made him put away his binoculars, leave behind the hides and the nature reserves and the quiet companionship of his fellow birders. His love of birds didn't disappear though. Rather, it went underground, and he began birdwatching in the books that he read, creating his own personal anthology of nature writing that brought the birds of his childhood back to brilliant life. Looking for moments 'when heart and bird are one', Preston weaves the very best writing about birds into a personal and eccentric narrative that is as much about the joy of reading and writing as it is about the thrill of wildlife. Moving from the 'high requiem' of Keats's nightingale to the crow-s...

Messier's Nebulae and Star Clusters PDF By:Kenneth Glyn Jones Published on 1991-04-04 by Cambridge University Press Charles Messier's catalog of nebulae and star clusters, published in 1784, marked the start of a new era of deep-sky astronomy. Today, this tradition of observing galaxies and clusters is kept alive by dedicated amateur astronomers. Nearly all the objects are visible in a small telescope, and many, such as the Crab Nebula and the Andromeda galaxy, are among the most fascinating objects in the universe. Kenneth Glyn Jones has revised his definitive version of Messier's catalog. His own observations and drawings, together with maps and diagrams, make this a valuable introduction to deep-sky observing. Historical and astrophysical notes bring the science of these nebulae right up to date. This is a unique handbook, unlikely ever to be equaled in its completeness and importance to the telescope owner. This Book was ranked at 33 by Google Books for keyword Astron...

Tracks and Tracking PDF By:Josef Brunner Published on 2014-10-21 by Skyhorse Publishing, Inc. The most comprehensive guide to reading the signs and tracks of dozens of animals! “To derive the greatest pleasure from the pursuit of game,” Brunner writes in the foreword to this classic hunting guide, “it is necessary to be versed in the science of interpreting the meaning of tracks and trails.” With these words, the author begins his comprehensive survey of how to track and read animal signs. To the author—and hunter—this is not simply a matter of skill, but one of honor. A sportsman should consider it a sacred duty to acquire a working knowledge of tracks, trails, and signs. The contents of this book represent the experience gained by the author from twenty years of uninterrupted life in the great outdoors. Included in this book are chapters on hunting on a wide variety of animals, such as: • White-tailed deer • Moose • Bears • Bobcats • Wolves • Cottontail rabbits • Otters • Badgers • P...

The Hidden Life of Trees PDF By:Peter Wohlleben Published on 2016-09-13 by Greystone Books In The Hidden Life of Trees, Peter Wohlleben shares his deep love of woods and forests and explains the amazing processes of life, death, and regeneration he has observed in the woodland and the amazing scientific processes behind the wonders of which we are blissfully unaware. Much like human families, tree parents live together with their children, communicate with them, and support them as they grow, sharing nutrients with those who are sick or struggling and creating an ecosystem that mitigates the impact of extremes of heat and cold for the whole group. As a result of such interactions, trees in a family or community are protected and can live to be very old. In contrast, solitary trees, like street kids, have a tough time of it and in most cases die much earlier than those in a group. Drawing on groundbreaking new discoveries, Wohlleben presents the science behind the secret and previously ...
