Download or read book Octopus written by Richard Schweid and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our relationship to the octopus dates back to prehistory, when the eight-armed animal was depicted on vases and found in stone carvings from ancient Greece. Now we appreciate them for their abilities as escape artists, with sophisticated camouflage systems and ink jets—as well as their roles in tasty dishes from many cuisines. Octopuses are also among the most intelligent invertebrates in the world, with mental capacity comparable to that of a dog. In this heavily illustrated book, Richard Schweid details this animal’s remarkable natural history and its multifaceted relationship with humans. Schweid describes the octopus’s intelligence, defense mechanisms, and short lifespan. He shows how some people have considered octopuses as nothing more than a meal and examines their role in the modern global fish and seafood industry. Other cultures, he reveals, see them as erotic totems or symbols of the darkest evils, and he discusses the difficulties people face when trying to keep them as pets—they are able to use their problem-solving skills, mobility, and boneless body to escape seemingly secure tanks. A fascinating glimpse into the extraordinary world of these popular creatures, Octopus will immerse readers in its amazing undersea world.

Download or read book The Inside Man written by Salvador A. Ramirez and published by Salvador A. Ramirez. This book was released on 2007 with total page 1412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Inside Man is the culmination of more than seventeen years of groundbreaking, meticulous, and exhaustive research into the life of this least known or understood of the "Big Five" who built the western end of the first transcontinental railroad. Drawn from original sources most of which have hitherto been inaccessible or ignored by previous chroniclers-thousands of pages of handwritten letters, telegrams, accounts from scores of newspapers archived around the country, including biographical and historical works-are brought to bear in this monumental account. More than the biography of one individual, this masterful account weaves within the narrative the many forces and competing issues faced by Mark Hopkins and his associates as well as the culture and mores of late nineteenth century California, and their very personal struggles and conflicts.

Download or read book Guilty Pigs written by Katy Barnett and published by Black Inc.. This book was released on 2022-02-02 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating and entertaining history of the law’s treatment of animals Trespassing bees, murderous zebras, reasonable cows ... Ever since Biblical times, animals have been clashing with human laws. What to do with animals that injure or kill people, in particular, has long troubled humans. In medieval Europe, ‘killer’ animals – horses, cattle and most often pigs, which were notorious for eating young children – were put on trial. Even in the early twentieth century, circus elephants who lashed out at their keepers in America were summarily executed for their crimes. In Guilty Pigs, animal law experts Katy Barnett and Jeremy Gans guide readers through the philosophy and practice of animal-related law, from the very earliest cases to the issues we are debating today, including the responsibilities of pet owners and the application of human rights to animals. They also cover hunting rights, using animals to solve crime, protecting animals from abuse and neglect, and the unique nature of owning a living being. Filled with lively and sometimes bizarre case studies, this is a fascinating and entertaining read – for all lovers of misbehaving creatures. Katy Barnett is a professor of law at the University of Melbourne. She is the author of the young adult novel The Earth Below and co-author of Remedies in Australian Private Law. Jeremy Gans is a professor of law at the University of Melbourne. He is the author of Modern Criminal Law of Australia and The Ouija Board Jurors: Mystery, Mischief and Misery in the Jury System, a true crime book. He is a co-author of Uniform Evidence.

This book was released on 2024-04-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes the large gap between the image of the October 7 massacre by Hamas against Israelis and the ensuing Gaza War as a minor neighborhood rift between Israel and the Palestinians. But it ended up with two global forces arrayed against each other: Iran, the head of the Octopus with its tentacles in Syria, Lebanon, Gaza and Yemen, backed by the entire Islamic world and by Russia and China, the former to divert attention from Ukraine, the latter to ensure its oil supply; and the other, the U.S. that supports Israel in that rift, with several Western countries backing them only hesitantly and temporarily due to domestic Muslim pressures within their own borders.
