Tyson, Peter
The Eighth Continent: Life Death and Discovery in the Lost World of Madagascar
New York: HarperCollins/ Perennial 2001. First Perennial edition. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. Madagascar the world's fourth-largest island is a land where lizards scream and monkey-like lemurs sing songs of inexpressible beauty. Where animals and plants that went extinct elsewhere millions of years ago -- tenrecs fossa upside-down trees -- thrive in a true Lost World. Where the ancestors of the Malagasy as the island's eighteen tribes are collectively known come alive in rollicking ceremonies known as "turning the bones." Here join Peter Tyson on a diverting odyssey with four scientists out to plumb the natural and cultural mysteries of this extraordinary land. "Lying some 250 miles off the east coast of Africa Madagascar is the world's fourth-largest island. It is quite unlike the neighboring continent and for that matter quite unlike any other landmass on the planet. Its plant life is almost wholly endemic: eight out of 10 plants there grow naturally only on Madagascar and it has an entire ecosystem the spiny desert that is found nowhere else on earth. Many of its animal species too seem to have emerged from some evolutionary track that runs parallel to the rest of the world's; here can be found lemurs that will fit into a human palm dwarf hippos giant chameleons and other rarities. These plants and animals constitute an extraordinary diversity writes science journalist Peter Tyson in this engaging book and the island's richness of life has long intrigued scientists who have proposed several theories to explain it. Those scientists some of whom Tyson profiles at work in the field are racing against time to catalog island life before it disappears for Madagascar's human population is rapidly growing and with that growth the island's forests and other habitats are falling. The urgency may abate Tyson writes with guarded optimism now that the island's current president has proposed that all of Madagascar be considered as a United Nations World Heritage Site which would help provide funds to prevent further loss of habitat and diversity. Though this proposal is controversial Tyson makes a good case for why it should be taken up--and he shows just how high the stakes are. Throughout his narrative Tyson mixes scientific reportage with a nicely rendered travelogue that guides readers across the island while outlining key concepts of island biogeography and conservation biology. His book is a worthy companion to David Quammen's Song of the Dodo and valuable reading for anyone concerned with the world environment. --Gregory McNamee review. Book is near fine some slight mark on lower page block not noticeable unless looking for it. HarperCollins/ Perennial paperback

Ulrich Raulff
Farewell to the Horse : The Final Century of Our Relationship
Allen Lane UK 2017. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Hardcover. 449 pages. PUBLISHING DETAILS: Allen Lane UK 2017. CONDITION: The book itself is in near fine condition and comes in near fine dust jacket. More specifically: Boards have no wear rubbing or soiling. Edges of dust jacket have light bumping. Dust jacket is unclipped. Pages are lightly tanned. ABOUT THIS BOOK: The relationship between horses and humans is an ancient profound and complex one. For millennia horses provided the strength and speed that humans lacked. How we travelled farmed and fought was dictated by the needs of this extraordinary animal. And then suddenly in the 20th century the links were broken and the millions of horses that shared our existence almost vanished eking out a marginal existence on race-tracks and pony clubs. Farewell to the Horse is an engaging brilliantly written and moving discussion of what horses once meant to us. Cities farmland entire industries were once shaped as much by the needs of horses as humans. The intervention of horses was fundamental in countless historical events. They were sculpted painted cherished admired; they were thrashed abused and exposed to terrible danger. From the Roman Empire to the Napoleonic Empire every world-conqueror needed to be shown on a horse. Tolstoy once reckoned that he had cumulatively spent some nine years of his life on horseback. Ulrich Raulff's book a bestseller in Germany is a superb monument to the endlessly various creature who has so often shared and shaped our fate. Quantity Available: 1.
