Download or read book A Window on Eternity written by Edward O., Wilson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-04-22 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The remarkable story of how one of the most biologically diverse habitats in the world was destroyed, restored, and continues to evolve—with stunning, full-color photographs by two of the world’s best wildlife photographers. A Window on Eternity is a stunning book of splendid prose and gorgeous photography about one of the biologically richest places in Africa and perhaps in the world. Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique was nearly destroyed in a brutal civil war, then was reborn and is now evolv-ing back to its original state. Edward O. Wilson’s personal, luminous description of the wonders of Gorongosa is beautifully complemented by Piotr Naskrecki’s extraordinary photographs of the park’s exquisite natural beauty. A bonus DVD of Academy Award–winning director Jessica Yu’s documentary, The Guide, is also included with the book. Wilson takes readers to the summit of Mount Gorongosa, sacred to the local people and the park’s vital watershed. From the forests of the mountain he brings us to the deep gorges on the edge of the Rift Valley, previously unexplored by biologists, to search for new species and assess their ancient origins. He describes amazing animal encounters from huge colonies of agricultural termites to specialized raider ants that feed on them to giant spiders, a battle between an eagle and a black mamba, “conversations” with traumatized elephants that survived the slaughter of the park’s large animals, and more. He pleads for Gorongosa—and other wild places—to be allowed to exist and evolve in its timeless way uninterrupted into the future. As he examines the near destruction and rebirth of Gorongosa, Wilson analyzes the balance of nature, which, he observes, teeters on a razor’s edge. Loss of even a single species can have serious ramifications throughout an ecosystem, and yet we are carelessly destroying complex biodiverse ecosystems with unknown consequences. The wildlands in which these ecosystems flourish gave birth to humanity, and it is this natural world, still evolving, that may outlast us and become our legacy, our window on eternity.

This book was released on 2023-04-30 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Ant and the Elephant" "A Story of Courage and Friendship in the Jungle." The outline of this story: The tale of Andy the ant and Elly the elephant is a beautiful example of how to persevere in the face of adversity, demonstrate courage, and form lasting friendships. A modest anthill was home for Andy and his family, where they shared the space with other ants. He always got up very early, went out to find something to eat, and then worked nonstop throughout the entire day. When he was foraging for food one day, he came across a large elephant with the name Elly. Elly was taking a stroll through the woods, taking in the scenery and appreciating the fresh air. Andy was awestruck by how enormous the elephant was and puzzled over how it managed to make a living in the wild despite its massive size. Elly instilled in Andy the importance of having courage, fighting for what you believe in, and being kind as their friendship developed. They had to collaborate to find solutions to the many challenges they faced in the wilderness, such as rescuing animals that were in danger and preventing people from cutting down trees. Andy and Elly demonstrated that they could triumph against even the most formidable foes by cooperating with one another and making full use of all their abilities. In the wild, they transformed into heroes who encouraged others to fight together for what they believed in and stand up for what they believed to defend their homes and their lives. The selfless and courageous actions that they took were taken note of. When the other animals in the jungle learned what they had done, they congratulated them for their bravery and their determination. Andy and Elly's exploits in the jungle had become legendary. They were revered and admired by every other animal in the forest. The narrative imparts valuable life lessons, like how crucial it is to put in hard work, to have courage, and to be compassionate. It demonstrates how effective it is to collaborate with others to achieve a goal, as well as how vital it is to speak up for what one believes in. Andy and Elly passed away at the same time, but both remained steadfast in their commitment to preserve the forest and inspire others to do the same. They were aware that there was still a great deal of work ahead of them, but they were also aware that if they worked together, they could accomplish anything. Readers of any age will find inspiration in the timelessness of Andy and Elly's story, which is a tale of friendship, bravery, and unwavering persistence. This is how the story began: Andy was an ant who used to reside in a very large forest. Once upon a time. Andy was a hard-working ant who had a lot of determination. Andy, a hard-working ant, and his family and other ants all shared a modest anthill as their home. The anthill was situated on the border of the forest and was encompassed on all sides by dense vegetation and leaves. There was a steady flow of new ants entering and exiting the anthill throughout the day. Andy's family was a close-knit group that looked out for each other in order to stay alive while they were out in the wilderness. They would emerge from the anthill in the wee hours of the morning to search for food. Within the ant colony, each individual ant served a specific purpose. While some ants went in search of food, others brought what they found back to the anthill. The queen ant, who served as the colony's leader, would always remain in the anthill to produce offspring. After they emerged from their eggs, the caterpillars fed on the food that was brought to them by the worker ants until they were mature enough to transform into adults. Andy cared deeply for his family and the people in his community, and he exerted a lot of effort to ensure that they would all be safe. Every day, even though doing so required him to leave the anthill, he went in search of food. He was never one to whine about the burdens of carrying heavy goods on his back. He was aware of the significance of the strenuous effort he was making for the survival of his group. Andy's fervor and doggedness impressed the other ants, who admired him for it. They were aware that he played an essential role in the community and appreciated the work that he accomplished. Despite the challenges they faced, the colony of ants living in the anthill was joyful and robust. They were able to overcome any challenges by relying on one another and cooperating with one another. Andy was aware that he was only a minor contributor to a much larger group, but he also understood the significance of his role. He took great pride in the fact that he was an ant and that he lived in a colony that was so nearby.
Download or read book Ant written by Charlotte Sleigh and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2004-04-04 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ants are legion: at present there are 11,006 species of ant known; they live everywhere in the world except the polar icecaps; and the combined weight of the ant population has been estimated to make up half the mass of all insects alive today. When we encounter them outdoors, ants fascinate us; discovered in our kitchen cupboards, they elicit horror and disgust. Charlotte Sleigh’s Ant elucidates the cultural reasons behind our varied reactions to these extraordinary insects, and considers the variety of responses that humans have expressed at different times and in different places to their intricate, miniature societies. Ants have figured as fantasy miniature armies, as models of good behavior, as infiltrating communists and as creatures on the borderline between the realms of the organic and the machine: in 1977 British Telecom hired ant experts to help solve problems with their massive information network. This is the first book to examine ants in these and many other such guises, and in so doing opens up broader issues about the history of science and humans’ relations with the natural world. It will be of interest to anyone who likes natural history or cultural studies, or who has ever rushed out and bought a can of RaidTM. "[Charlotte Sleigh's] stylish, engaging and informative study deserves to win new members for the ant fan club."—Jonathan Bate, The Times
