ISBN: 9780982018545 / Angielski / Miękka / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Instincts shape who we are as leaders. They encapsulate the social variety we exhibit to others, from the servant to the tyrant. Though they are integrated into our every thought and deed, we are relatively unaware of what they are or how they impact us. Perhaps the frenzied lives we lead are to blame, or maybe we spend too much time developing the veneer of leadership rather than excavating its core substance. No matter the cause, each day we are presented opportunities to make differences in the lives we touch. As we awaken to the reality that who we are on the inside has a direct role in...

This is a story of wolves, from the wolf's point of view. It starts with one wolf, "Lobo Negro," and continues through his lifetime. I have tried to keep the facts accurate, showing my love for these animals while being true to my research. However, the rest is supposition, possibly bordering on fantasy. If you love wolves, you will love this story. If you don't yet know wolves, you will probably fall in love with them by the end of the story.

Wolf: What's to Misunderstand?
ISBN: 9781505397093 / Angielski / Miękka / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is not your typical feel good, warm and fuzzy book about how "spiritual" wolves are and how they keep to themselves, fearful of humans and are a necessary part of a healthy ecosystem. But then again, this book is really more of the politics and corruption behind the (re)introduction of wolves and the over-protection of wolves. This book is a reality check. Sorry, that there are no "fuzzy" moments that will bring a tear to your eye. Americans were sold a lemon. Citizens were mostly convinced that the protection of a species, that needed no protection, was good for ecosystems. And then we...

DeLene Beeland shadows the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's pioneering recovery program over the course of a year to...
