Download or read book Artistic Nature Quotes from Wilderness Literature written by Kirsten Anderberg and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-06 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A relaxing book full of soothing quotes about nature, with beautiful photographic illustrations. A majority of the quotes are from historical wilderness literature, much of which is over 100 years old. Listen to the colorful voices of the American past, as they speak of simpler times when nature favored "trespassers" and the ocean, desert, mountains and open skies were welcome relief from "civilization." This book features a breadth of literary resources including Rachel Carson, Edward Abbey, Mary Austin, HDThoreau, Frederick Rindge, John Muir, Everett Reuss, L.Frank Baum, and more. Editor K. Anderberg earned her M.A. Degree in CA History from CA State University at Northridge and these quotes come from her own private collection amassed during and after grad school. Photographs accompanying these nature quotes were taken by the editor, primarily in Southern and Central CA. While East Coast authors are included in this collection, there is a leaning towards West Coast U.S. nature in this book. Enjoyable as a leisurely stroll through desert trails of prickly pear cactus at the turn of the century, or a sweeping view of valleys from the peaks of unnamed mountains, or even as a trip to the forests under a canopy of winking stars, this book will take you into nature, with all its colors, textures and climates; with all its sights, smells and sounds.Great for a momentary escape from an office cubicle or an evening read before bed, but also fun to read outdoors, while camping, traveling and experiencing nature. Suitable for all ages and appropriate for use in K-12 and college classrooms to teach the art of wilderness literature authorship, as well as the importance of conservation and history. This book can also be used in stark institutional settings, such as hospitals, to soothe patients with green pastures and ocean breezes as distraction. The genre of wilderness literature is well-represented in this book, thus it also serves as a text book for writers, who would like to examine the art of writing about nature.

Download or read book The Moth Snowstorm written by Michael McCarthy and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The moth snowstorm, a phenomenon Michael McCarthy remembers from his boyhood when moths “would pack a car’s headlight beams like snowflakes in a blizzard,” is a distant memory. Wildlife is being lost, not only in the wholesale extinctions of species but also in the dwindling of those species that still exist. The Moth Snowstorm is unlike any other book about climate change today; combining the personal with the polemical, it is a manifesto rooted in experience, a poignant memoir of the author’s first love: nature. McCarthy traces his adoration of the natural world to when he was seven, when the discovery of butterflies and birds brought sudden joy to a boy whose mother had just been hospitalized and whose family life was deteriorating. He goes on to record in painful detail the rapid dissolution of nature’s abundance in the intervening decades, and he proposes a radical solution to our current problem: that we each recognize in ourselves the capacity to love the natural world. Arguing that neither sustainable development nor ecosystem services have provided adequate defense against pollution, habitat destruction, species degradation, and climate change, McCarthy asks us to consider nature as an intrinsic good and an emotional and spiritual resource, capable of inspiring joy, wonder, and even love. An award-winning environmental journalist, McCarthy presents a clear, well-documented picture of what he calls “the great thinning” around the world, while interweaving the story of his own early discovery of the wilderness and a childhood saved by nature. Drawing on the truths of poets, the studies of scientists, and the author’s long experience in the field, The Moth Snowstorm is part elegy, part ode, and part argument, resulting in a passionate call to action.

Download or read book The Nature of the Beast written by David J. Anderson and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2022-03-15 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pioneering neuroscientist offers a new way of understanding how emotions drive behavior Does your dog get sad when you leave for the day? Does your cat purr because she loves you? Do bears attack when they’re angry? You can’t very well ask them. In fact, scientists haven’t been able to reach a consensus on whether animals even have emotions like humans do, let alone how to study them. Yet studies of animal emotion are critical for understanding human emotion and mental illness. In The Nature of the Beast, pioneering neuroscientist David J. Anderson describes a new approach to solving this problem. He and his colleagues have figured out how to study the brain activity of animals as they navigate real-life scenarios, like fleeing a predator or competing for a mate. His research has revolutionized what we know about animal fear and aggression. Here, he explains what studying emotions and related internal brain states in animals can teach us about human behavior, offering new insights into why isolation makes us more aggressive, how sex and violence connect, and whether there’s a link between aggression and mental illness. Full of fascinating stories, The Nature of the Beast reconceptualizes how the brain regulates emotions–and explains why we have them at all.

Download or read book The End of Nature written by Bill McKibben and published by Random House. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reissued on the tenth anniversary of its publication, this classic work on our environmental crisis features a new introduction by the author, reviewing both the progress and ground lost in the fight to save the earth. This impassioned plea for radical and life-renewing change is today still considered a groundbreaking work in environmental studies. McKibben's argument that the survival of the globe is dependent on a fundamental, philosophical shift in the way we relate to nature is more relevant than ever. McKibben writes of our earth's environmental cataclysm, addressing such core issues as the greenhouse effect, acid rain, and the depletion of the ozone layer. His new introduction addresses some of the latest environmental issues that have risen during the 1990s. The book also includes an invaluable new appendix of facts and figures that surveys the progress of the environmental movement. More than simply a handbook for survival or a doomsday catalog of scientific prediction, this classic, soulful lament on Nature is required reading for nature enthusiasts, activists, and concerned citizens alike.
