Un viaje esperanzador por la capacidad de la naturaleza para adaptarse que nos enseña a enfrentar los desafíos actuales. Durante casi cuatro mil millones de años, la vida en la Tierra ha encontrado nuevas formas de adaptarse, reproducirse y prosperar, transformandose para responder a las condiciones de cada epoca. Pero el impacto humano sobre el planeta y la amenaza potencialmente devastadora del cambio climatico han puesto a prueba esa capacidad de adaptacion como nunca antes. Aun asi, la vida siempre encuentra un camino. Animales, plantas e insectos siguen afrontando el desafio y continuan adaptandose, reproduciendose y prosperando incluso en un entorno en rapida transformacion. En su ejemplo quiza encontremos tambien nosotros las claves para cambiar, para detener la destruccion que estamos causando al planeta.En El ingenio de la naturaleza, David Farrier nos invita a un viaje profundo por este mundo natural en constante cambio. Lo que descubrimos en el podria transformarnos. Las formas en que los animales se ajustan al paisaje urbano pueden ayudarnos a diseñar ciudades sostenibles. El estudio de otras inteligencias puede inspirarnos a reinventar nuestras economias. La evolucion bacteriana puede ofrecer soluciones al problema de los residuos. La biologia sintetica podria rescatar especies al borde de la extincion. Y pensar en las escalas de tiempo de la naturaleza puede guiarnos hacia un futuro mejor.La vida en la Tierra esta cambiando; la pregunta es si nosotros seremos capaces de cambiar con ella. ¿Podremos reconstruir el mundo para que toda forma de vida vuelva a prosperar?

Many people as they get older have to face leaving a village or town they have loved, a place redolent with memories and connections, to relocate somewhere more as they say manageable. It is different for everyone, and not always easy, for our ghosts go with us.But everything connects with everything else. There is no such thing as a new beginning. Such a move need not be a matter for repining and regret, but a new adventure.This book records just that journey, of having to learn that new place to which Time is bringing you and populate it with its own stock of private memories.Charles Moseley writes about his move from a fenland village to the nearby historic little city of Ely and breathes life into the history, natural world and people who have made his new home what it is today.

Gods Providential Work in Creation Before Life Began God has been present and active in creation from the moment he created it ex nihilo. Few Christians would question this claim, but its implications for ongoing theology and science dialogues have not been fully explored.In this pathbreaking and field-advancing work, Ross Hastings brings his expertise in both scientific and theological disciplines to bear on the topic of divine providence in chemical evolution. Based on the latest research in the developing field of chemical evolution and the work of theological giants such as Karl Barth, Hastings shows how God may have been providentially and non-competitively at work in the process by which simple prebiotic molecules gave rise to the complex molecules in the first living organisms.In God and Molecules, Hastings provides cutting-edge theological engagement with the developing scientific field of chemical evolution, advances the discussion in theology and science with this new integrative work, and offers a holistic alternative for thinking about chemical evolution that overcomes the binary of theology versus science. God and Molecules pushes toward new frontiers in theology and science and casts a compelling, integrative, and ultimately healing vision for how God has been lovingly involved in the developmental process of the earliest life on earth.
