Описание: Named a Best Book of the Year for the Know-It-All by The Globe and Mail

In this richly illustrated volume, a leading neurobiologist presents fascinating stories of plant migration that reveal unexpected connections between nature and culture.

When we talk about migrations, we should study plants to understand that these phenomena are unstoppable. In the many different ways plants move, we can see the incessant action and drive to spread life that has led plants to colonize every possible environment on earth. The history of this relentless expansion is unknown to most people, but we can begin our exploration with these surprising tales, engagingly told by Stefano Mancuso.

Generation after generation, using spores, seeds, or any other means available, plants move in the world to conquer new spaces. They release huge quantities of spores that can be transported thousands of miles. The number and variety of tools through which seeds spread is astonishing: we have seeds dispersed by wind, by rolling on the ground, by animals, by water, or by a simple fall from the plant, which can happen thanks to propulsive mechanisms, the swaying of the mother plant, the drying of the fruit, and much more.

In this accessible, absorbing overview, Mancuso considers how plants convince animals to transport them around the world, and how some plants need particular animals to spread; how they have been able to grow in places so inaccessible and inhospitable as to remain isolated; how they resisted the atomic bomb and the Chernobyl disaster; how they are able to bring life to sterile islands; how they can travel through the ages, as they sail around the world.

Описание: Sometimes it's not a college degree that will make someone successful. Sometimes all it takes is a good idea, and the drive to seek the resources to help mold the idea into a plan and into reality.

Making the Steve Jobs Movie is a dialogue between first-time movie producer Mark Hulme and several of his professional peers about the process to take the story of Steve Jobs and his irrefutable success to the big screen. It isn't a nuts-and-bolts story of the movie industry, and it isn't a story of what one entrepreneur should do to make his idea come to fruition. Instead, Making the Steve Jobs Movie reveals an inside-look into the discussions - in essence, a "visual" how to - that make successful ideas into successful realities.

Joe Mancuso has more than 50 years' of experience as a successful entrepreneur and is the founder of CEO Clubs, of which Mark Hulme and his peers are members. With his help and the dialogue within Making the Steve Jobs Movie, Mancuso shows how anyone can apply the same principals and efforts as Jobs did to Apple and how Hulme did to his movie into making their own ideas and their own businesses successful.

Описание: Omnipresent and essential to life, trees have been underestimated by biologists. But in recent years, they have been the subject of scientific discoveries that have allowed us to see these oldest and largest members of the community of living beings in a new light. Capable of sensory perception, showing complex communication skills, living in symbiosis with many other species and influencing the climate, trees are equipped with unexpected faculties whose discovery confirms what indigenous, traditional and local communities had long acknowledged. Featuring works by contemporary artists including forest people, scientific imagery, films, photographs and sound installations, the exhibition at the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain, Paris, strives to highlight the beauty, ingenuity and biological richness of trees, allowing us to see and hear these impressive protagonists of the living world that now find themselves also under increasing threat. Through paintings, drawings, photographs, scientific images, maps and texts by specialists, the catalogue published to accompany the exhibition invites the reader to dive into the fascinating and beautiful world of trees.

Описание: Our fascination with finding the perfect someone has caused us to settle on a partner that is good enough. Within a few years, we get bored, and we cheat. Although several articles promote cheating as a healthy way to save relationships, the fact is that we won't cheat if we don't settle. Everybody Cheats is a non-fiction work that explores the excuses we give for cheating, the real reasons why we cheat, the effect cheating has on society and the benefits of enjoying our single years. The author then concludes that our perfect person does exist, but if we hope to find our soulmate, we must live our lives instead of constantly seeking love. We say we cheat because we're bored or unfulfilled. However, if we took the time to be single and live our lives, we will be brought to our soulmate. In turn, we can have that fairy tale ending that we all desire, but no longer believe exists.Based on life experience and supported by current trends, Everybody Cheats is a modern, and sometimes humorous look at why we really cheat and the detrimental effects cheating has on society.

Описание: A leading plant neurobiologist presents the eight fundamental pillars on which the life of plants--and by extension humans--rests in this playful yet eye-opening guidebook.

Even if they behave as though they were, humans are not the masters of the Earth, but only one of its most irksome residents. From the moment of their arrival, about 300,000 years ago--nothing when compared to the history of life on our planet--humans have succeeded in changing the conditions of the planet so drastically as to make it a dangerous place for their own survival.

The causes of this reckless behavior are in part inherent in their predatory nature, but they also depend on our total incomprehension of the rules that govern the existence of a community of living beings. The last to arrive on the planet, we behave like children who wreak havoc, unaware of the value and significance of the things they are playing with.

In The Nation of Plants, the most important, widespread, and powerful nation on Earth finally gets to speak. Like attentive parents, plants, after making it possible for us to live, have come to our aid once again, giving us their rules: this is the first Charter of Rights of Living Beings written by the plants. A short constitution based on the general principles that regulate the common life of plants, it establishes norms applicable to all living beings. Compared to our constitutions, which place humans at the center of the entire juridical reality, in conformity with an anthropocentricism that reduces to things all that is not human, plants offer us a revolution.
