Описание:
Bestselling author Brian D. McLaren followed his love of nature (specifically, tortoises) all the way to the Galapagos Islands. There, he paid close attention to the flora and fauna around him but also to what was happening within him, how the natural world awakened his soul in a way that organized religion could not. McLaren's descriptions of birds and reptiles, fish and flowers sing; he walks in the footsteps of Charles Darwin and grieves that Darwin has been demonized by his fellow Christians; and he reflects on how his own faith has evolved in the years since he left the pastorate.
McLaren writes in the spirit of Aldo Leopold and Wendell Berry, weaving together the spiritual and the material. Even though most readers will never visit the Galapagos Islands, they can travel with McLaren and experience the beauty and fragility of this extraordinary place.

Описание: Disputes between Ecuador and Peru are nearly 200 years old and revolve around the question of Ecuador’s territory extending beyond the Andes and into the Amazonian basin – or not. Based on diverse interpretations of the Real Cedulas (Royal Proclamations) Spain used to define its colonial territories in the Americas, they became the source of the longest-running international armed conflict in the Western Hemisphere. Despite numerous attempts at a negotiated definition of the borders, the two countries fought no less than three wars during the 20th Century. Tensions dating back to the 19th Century resulted in skirmishes in 1938, which escalated into a war fought in July 1941. Further armed clashes took place in early 1981, and again in 1995. Based on extensive research in the official archives of the Fuerza Aerea del Peru (FAP), as well as documentation from multiple private sources, ‘The Air Wars Between Ecuador and Peru, Volume 1’ is the story of a little-known and brief, yet intensive and bitter aerial war. Taking place at the time that World War II savaged most of Europe, this conflict has attracted little attention outside Ecuador and Peru – although it is unique as significant for the studies of causes and resolutions of international conflicts: the two countries share not only language, culture, religious preferences, and social and ethnic diversity, but economic difficulties. Moreover, for most of their modern times, they have been democracies. Thus, their wars put in doubt the common contention that ‘democracies never go to war with each other’. Using sources from both parties of the conflict, ‘The Air Wars between Ecuador and Peru, Volume 1’ avoids the usual, biased and one-sided coverage of conflicts between Ecuador and Peru. It provides intricate details on the military capabilities and intentions of armed forces on both sides, their training, planning, and the conduct of combat operations. Moreover, illustrated with over 100 exclusive photographs, most of which have never been published before, half a dozen maps and 15 colour profiles, this book provides the first authoritative account of the air warfare between Ecuador and Peru in July 1941. As such it is an indispensable source of reference for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

Описание:
The first tortoises to accidentally arrive in Galapagos 2-3 million years ago were able to adapt to their harsh environment, find one another, and establish themselves on at first one and then on at least ten islands. By the 1960's, centuries of exploitation by whalers, privateers, traders, collectors and colonists had all but eliminated these enormous lumbering beasts from the landscape.
Thanks to the strenuous efforts of scientists and National Park staff, the Galapagos tortoise is once again facing a brighter future. One of these dedicated investigators, Cruz M rquez, has compiled over 40 years of research into this volume which will be an important source of information for scientists, students, naturalist guides, and conservation managers.
Lavishly illustrated and including a great deal of previously published and unpublished data, this book addresses the following topics:
From where did Galapagos tortoises originate? Which other tortoises are their nearest relatives?
When and how did they arrive in Galapagos and spread throughout the islands?
How and why did they become giants?
What is known about their internal and external anatomy? Is it similar to that of marine turtles?
What do giant tortoises eat? How do they adapt to different environments and seasons?
Do they eat the same foods in captivity as in the wild? How do they then adapt to foraging in the wild?
Do wild giant tortoises move over long distances? If so, why?
Are they more active during daylight hours or at night?
Why do Galapagos finches appear to feed on the skin of giant tortoises?
Why are there so few opuntia cactus on Espanola Island? Is this connected to only 14 tortoises being found there in the 1970's?
How do Galapagos tortoises reproduce? Do they form lasting pair bonds?
Is it true that incubation temperatures can be manipulated to produce mainly male or mainly female offspring? How can we tell the difference?
Do Galapagos tortoises have twins? Are there any albino tortoises?
How does the fetus break through the shell?
After hatching, how soon does the neonate leave the egg shell?
What parasites do Galapagos tortoises have? How do these affect their health?
Why are human beings responsible for the near extinction of Galapagos tortoises?
What has been done for the conservation of Galapagos giant tortoises? What will be done in the future?
What of Lonesome George? What efforts went into keeping the last of his species alive in captivity for almost forty years, and why? What can we learn from his death?
The answers to these questions, and many more, can be found in this book.
