Is a zebra black with white stripes or white with black stripes? And why do flamingos stand on one leg while bats hang upside down? Did you know that a chameleons tongue can shoot out at five times the acceleration of a fighter jet?In The Buck That Buries its Poo, naturalist Quinton Coetzee answers these and many other intriguing wildlife questions. He also dispels countless myths and elucidates some of the legends that surround creatures in the South African bush we thought we knew all about. For example, bats do not get tangled in peoples hair (because they are far too adept at flying) and elephants are not afraid of mice (but they do fear bees!).Other tall tales you might hear around the campfire are that lions roll in animal dung, entrails or carcasses to disguise their scent, and that rhinos have a predilection for stamping out fires. What is true, though, is that hyenas are more closely related to cats than to dogs. This handy guide is based on Coetzees own research and that of others, and his experience gleaned over decades living close to nature and wildlife. It seeks to unravel the mysteries of nature in Africa from mammals and birds to arthropods and plants with fascinating information and fun trivia. It is a book that will enlighten and entertain.PS: Zebras are black with white stripes!

Generous, moving and alive. A gift - Tim Dee, author of GreeneryIntelligent, thought-provoking and always, always interesting - Cal Flyn, author of Islands of AbandonmentSmyth writes with warmth and engaging perception about our relationship and understanding of the natural world on our doorsteps - Jon Dunn, author of The Glitter in the GreenFresh and tender and playful - Patrick Galbraith, author of In Search of One Last SongWerent they richer, rock pools, wasnt the seashore busier, when I was a kid? Richard Smyth had always been drawn to the natural world, but when he became a father he found a new joy and a new urgency in showing his kids the everyday wild things around them. As he and his children explore rockpools in Whitley Bay, or the woods and moors near his Yorkshire home, he imagines the world they might inhabit as they grow up. Through different objects discovered on their wanderings - a beech leaf, a jay feather, a limpetshell - Smyth examines his own past as well as that of the early natural historians, weaving together history, memoir, and environmentalism to form a new kind of nature writing: one that asks both what we have lost, and what we have yet to find.

Dalai Lama (2000) believes that seeking happiness "lies in our nature": The desire or need to be happy knows no bounds. It is something that lies in our nature. As such, it needs no grounds and it is justified by the simple fact that it is something we rightly want out of our nature. One has also asked if happiness is as important in all cultures. The answer is that happiness is at the top of the wish-list in every country; It is more important than wealth and to come to heaven, and as important as love (Diener and Biswas-Diener, 2008)...what makes us richer has been costly. The wealth, or what has been the prerequisite for wealth, has reduced a quieter life, close and stable relationships, we are moving apart. A materialistic lifestyle has a negative connection with happiness (Hellevik, 2003). NEF (2016) has calculated values on Happy Planet Index for 140 countries. Highest ranks Costa Rica and a number of other countries in Latin America. The population of Costa Rica has high values for happiness and longevity, and they have low values of ecological footprints. Norway has very high values of happiness and longevity, but also of footprints. In total, Norway is ranked twelfth and therefore highest among European countries, but closely followed by Albania. The United Kingdom is at thirty-fourth place, Canada number eighty-five and the United States number 108.

Johann Wolfgang Goethe no solo fue el máximo exponente de su época como escritor. Su obra da cuenta además de una minuciosa dedicación a la investigación de las ciencias naturales y de una vida profundamente marcada por la naturaleza.Con una enorme fuerza narrativa, Stefan Bollmann explora en esta biografia la olvidada vision goethiana del mundo natural y nos ofrece a su vez una imagen de Goethe completamente nueva. Dedicado al estudio de diversos campos, que fueron la base intelectual de su amistad con figuras como Alexander von Humboldt, la vida de este genio nos revela no solo la importancia de la experiencia al aire libre, sino la idea del entorno natural visto como una totalidad organica y cambiante que depende de la interconexion de todas las formas de vida en la Tierra.Un libro que no solo nos muestra lo que Goethe represento en el contexto de la epoca, sino como el conocimiento de la naturaleza puede ser una fuente para comprender nuestra humanidad.

In "Last Leaves from Dunk Island," E. J. Banfield offers an evocative exploration of the lush landscapes and vivid experiences of life on Dunk Island, Australia. Blending travelogue, memoir, and reflection, the book reveals Banfields deep affinity for nature, his keen observations of indigenous wildlife, and his philosophical musings on existence itself. Written in a lyrical style that captures the nuances of both the environment and the human experience, Banfields prose transports readers to an idyllic yet raw setting, reflecting Australias multicultural heritage and the essential relationship between man and nature within the broader context of early 20th-century literature. E. J. Banfield was an influential figure in Australian literature, whose unique background as a journalist and naturalist profoundly shaped his writing. His decision to settle on Dunk Island reflected his desire for solitude and communion with nature, a pursuit that informed much of his work. The island served as both a physical and metaphorical space for introspection, inspiring Banfield to contemplate themes of belonging, transience, and the deep connections between humanity and the natural world. "Last Leaves from Dunk Island" is a must-read for those fascinated by ecological themes intertwined with personal narrative. Banfields reflective prose offers a tapestry of thought-provoking insights that resonate with contemporary debates on environmental conservation. Readers will find themselves not only transported to the picturesque shores of Dunk Island but also invited to reflect on their own relationship with nature.

In "Walden," Henry David Thoreau presents a profound exploration of simple living in natural surroundings. This seminal text, part philosophical treatise and part personal journal, chronicles Thoreaus two-year experiment in solitude at Walden Pond. Through reflective prose laden with transcendentalist ideals, Thoreau examines themes of self-reliance, nature, and the critique of contemporary society, employing a lyrical style that intertwines observation and introspection. The work emerges as a cornerstone of American literature, challenging readers to rethink their relationship with nature and materialism in an increasingly industrialized world. Thoreau, a central figure in the transcendentalist movement, was influenced by thinkers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and his own deep affinity for nature. His experience of living deliberately in a small cabin reflects his philosophical commitment to simplicity, individualism, and an ethical approach to life. Thoreaus profound observations on the human condition and societys constraints continue to resonate, informed by his extensive knowledge of natural history and literature. "Walden" is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the interplay between nature and human existence, as well as the enduring quest for authenticity in modern life. This text not only serves as a guide for personal reflection, but also as a call to reconnect with the natural world, offering timeless lessons on sustainability and self-discovery.
