Un libro que explora la sorprendente individualidad que caracteriza a los pájaros, porque cada ave es tan distinta como lo somos los humanos.Si en El ingenio de los pájaros Ackerman reveló la inteligencia y la habilidad social de las aves, en este nuevo libro nos demuestra que los pajaros no tienen una sola manera de ser, sino que existe una asombrosa variedad de conductas incluso dentro de una misma especie. Centrandose en la actividad diaria de las aves, la autora nos muestra el rico repertorio de comportamientos inusuales y extremos, que proporciona un contraste con lo que los pajaros hacen habitualmente y, por tanto, derriba los intentos de explicar la diversidad ornitologica bajo un solo paraguas.

Misteriosos y elegantes, amorosos pero independientes, compañeros silenciosos o, en ocasiones, demasiado expresivos, dueños de su espacio y observadores implacables. Son los gatos. En este libro que entusiasmara a los amantes de este fascinante animal, la etologa Paola Valsecchi traza su historia y cuenta el papel que ha desempeñado en ella desde el antiguo Egipto hasta hoy, explicando asimismo su evolucion, su domesticacion, su comportamiento en los muchos medios -silvestres y domesticos- en que se da su presencia, sus caracteristicas fisicas y conductuales, sus habilidades sensoriales y sociales, y tambien sus emociones. La larga relacion que tenemos con los gatos se esta viendo incrementada en nuestra sociedad moderna, en la que predominan soledades compartidas y convivencias con limites definidos, pero esto no impide que siga marcada por el aire hieratico e inescrutable que parece siempre envolverlos.

Para ello, este manual de uso escrito desde el rigor biológico, pero tambien desde la experiencia de poseer un perro, lo que conlleva un profundo sentimiento de cariño, nos ayudará a formar un equipo con nuestra mascota, aprendiendo a comunicarnos con ella, a educarla y cuidarla como merece. A cambio de este esfuerzo, nuestro perro nos brindara proteccion, fidelidad y amor incondicional. Sin duda, saldremos ganando.

Es un hecho que los gatos se comunican entre sí, pero ¿podemos entenderlos? ¿Sabemos cuándo se están comunicando con nosotros y qué es lo que nos están intentando decir?Santiago García Caraballo, veterinario especializado en gatos, nos introduce en el mundo comunicativo de los felinos, desvelando como utilizan su lenguaje olfativo (marcaje con orina, utilidad de las feromonas), tactil (amasado, alomarcaje), visual (cola en alto) y vocal (los 12 sonidos mas comunes).Tanto los amantes y conocedores de los felinos como sus detractores reafirmaran o descubriran que, si uno sabe como traducirlos, los gatos son muy comunicativos y "habladores". Porque los gatos si que hablan, nos cuentan muchisimas cosas que solo hay que saber como interpretar.
