Book excerpt: About Mormonia You've never met anyone quite like the Bowler family before-or are they the Wrights or the Christensens? Von Ward's seven short stories introduce us to three generations of a large and disparate family of Mormons, indelible characters whose ideas and expectations are frequently upended; but always with a knowing-eye, a tenderness and real affection. Praise for Mormonia "These stories are absolutely gorgeous. Von Ward's writing is lyrical and graceful, finely wrought. This book is absolutely deserving of a wide audience." "We greet each reappearance of a character as we would an old friend, and while the customs and traditions detailed are new to anyone outside the Mormon faith, we are swept up in them as if we've practiced all our lives. When we depart these characters' world, what remains with us is not their cultural oddities, but their aching humanity." "I was captivated... the author and I are fellow travelers, having both spent more time than we could afford living in Mormonland." "Von Ward's stories move interestingly through time, and manage to take in something of an epic sweep. The scenes are compelling and surprising." About the Author Jeff Von Ward is the author of Mormonia: Stories, managing editor of Samizdat Literary Journal, and co-creator of the Writing without Walls reading series. He also edits the popular City Lights podcast series, Live! From City Lights. He is a recent graduate of the M.F.A. in Writing program at California College of the Arts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Butterflies: Ecology and Evolution Taking Flight, the world's leading experts synthesize current knowledge of butterflies to show how the study of these fascinating creatures as model systems can lead to deeper understanding of ecological and evolutionary patterns and processes in general. The twenty-six chapters are organized into broad functional areas, covering the uses of butterflies in the study of behavior, ecology, genetics and evolution, systematics, and conservation biology. Especially in the context of the current biodiversity crisis, this book shows how results found with butterflies can help us understand large, rapid changes in the world we share with them—for example, geographic distributions of some butterflies have begun to shift in response to global warming, giving early evidence of climate change that scientists, politicians, and citizens alike should heed. The first international synthesis of butterfly biology in two decades, Butterflies: Ecology and Evolution Taking Flight offers students, scientists, and amateur naturalists a concise overview of the latest developments in the field. Furthermore, it articulates an exciting new perspective of the whole group of approximately 15,000 species of butterflies as a comprehensive model system for all the sciences concerned with biodiversity and its preservation.
