In the near future, wealthy businessman Ridley Pearce sends out a crack team of scientists and explorers to investigate the appearance of exoplanet GG-1791, but also to discover the fate of a crew long since lost to the planet.

Perspectives in Ethology
ISBN: 9781461575719 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the early days of ethology, most of the major developments were in the realm of ideas and in the framework in which animal behavior was studied. Much of the evidence was anecdotal, much of the thinking intuitive. As the subject developed, theories had to be tested, language had to become more public than it had been, and quantitative descriptions had to replace the preliminary qualitative accounts. That is the way a science develops; hard headed analysis follows soft-headed synthesis. There are limits, though, to the usefulness of this trend. The requirement to be quantitative can mean...

Perspectives in Ethology: Volume 6 Mechanisms
ISBN: 9781475702347 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 309 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. When we began this series we wanted to encourage imaginative thinking among ethologists and those working in related fields. By the time we had reached Volume 3, we were advised by our publishers to give each volume a theme. Although we accepted the advice, it ran somewhat counter to our own wish to give our authors full rein. It also meant that we could not accept submitted manuscripts if they lay too far outside the topic for the next volume. We did, however, cheat a little, and faithful followers of the series will have noticed that some of the contributions were not exactly on the stated...

Perspectives in Ethology: Volume 2
ISBN: 9781461575740 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 340 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the preface to the first volume of this series we set out our aims, which were to encourage fresh perspectives in ethology and provide a forum for new ideas. We still feel that in the perfectly proper search for high stan dards of evidence, methodology has tended to remain the master rather than the servant of most aspects of ethological work. It is easy for us all to forget that the kinds of data we collect are largely determined by the kinds of questions we ask. Even an ethologist with the professed goal of providing a straightforward account of behavior must incorporate into his or her...

Mendel's Principles of Heredity: A Defence, with a Translation of Mendel's Original Papers on Hybridisation
ISBN: 9781108006132 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. William Bateson (1861 1926) began his academic career working on variation in animals in the light of evolutionary theory. He was inspired by the rediscovery in 1900 of the 1860s work on plant hybridisation by the Austrian monk Gregor Mendel (included here as an appendix) to pursue further experimental work in what he named 'genetics'. He realised that Mendel's results could help to solve difficult biological questions and controversies and to challenge the status quo in evolutionary studies. Annoyed by the 'apathetic' stance of his evolutionist colleagues, and incensed by a scathing critique...

Naven: A Survey of the Problems Suggested by a Composite Picture of the Culture of a New Guinea Tribe Drawn from Three Points

Behaviour, Development and Evolution
ISBN: 9781783742493 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The role of parents in shaping the characters of their children, the causes of violence and crime, and the roots of personal unhappiness are central to humanity. Like so many fundamental questions about human existence, these issues all relate to behavioural development. In this lucid and accessible book, eminent biologist Professor Sir Patrick Bateson suggests that the nature/nurture dichotomy we often use to think about questions of development in both humans and animals is misleading. Instead, he argues that we should pay attention to whole systems, rather than to simple causes, when...

Nearly every day an active-duty soldier in the United States military resorts to suicide, and nearly every hour a veteran does the same.

Bateson, the former executive director of a nationally certified suicide prevention center, surveys the history of suicide...
