When we think of animals that provide the greatest insights into animal cognition and behavior, primates and honeybees come to mind, or perhaps whales or octopus. What about the raccoons that plunder our rubbish at night, or the coyotes that threaten pets and livestock, or the gulls that divebomb for snacks at the beach? Outsider Animals challenges everything you thought you knew about the overlooked animals that live in proximity to humans, sharing the stories that each has to tell about adaptation and cohabitation on our increasingly crowded planet.

In ihrem neuen Hörbuch konfrontiert Claudia Kemfert uns mit den heute neu gestellten klimapolitischen Fragen und deckt auf, wo Mythen gefährliche Realitäten verschleiern. Sie zeigt, welche Technologien noch funktionieren könnten und wie der Gasausstieg Deutschland zum Technologie-Weltmarktführer macht – wenn uns die Zeit bleibt. Ein Hörbuch für alle, die sich der Illusion verweigern, dass es noch einfache Antworten gibt. Klima und Wirtschaft lassen sich nicht gegeneinander ausspielen.

I watched the mirror for a last view, for now, of the frozen mountains of Glen Coe. As the road bent, and the outline of Buachaille Etive Mor slid into sight, I did what I always did and always would. I felt for that flutter of awe and that indefinable, unmistakable quickening of the pulse. In the late eighteenth century, mountains shifted from being universally reviled to becoming the most inspiring things on Earth. Simply put, the monsters became muses - and an entire artistic movement was born.

Described by Jeffrey Masson as "the single best introduction to animal rights ever written," this new book by Tom Regan will structure the animal rights debate for generations to come. In a style at once simple and elegant, Regan dispels the negative image of animal rights advocates perpetrated by the mass media, unmasks the fraudulent rhetoric of "humane treatment" favored by animal exploiters, and explains why existing laws function to legitimize institutional cruelty.

Cacti are some of the most remarkable plants on Earth—masters of survival, architects of adaptation, and quiet heroes of some of the harshest environments imaginable. Yet for many people, the word “cactus” evokes only a single image: a tall, green, spiky shape standing alone in a blazing desert.

When most people hear the word “fungi,” they think of mushrooms — the whimsical toadstools that pop up after rain, the champignons in our kitchens, or the button mushrooms scattered on a pizza.

These organisms represent one of life’s great kingdoms, existing alongside plants and animals yet fundamentally different from both.
