From vultures and sharks to bacteria, maggots, mushrooms, and more, discover the dirty rotten truth about one of nature's most fascinating processes.

Join the wildlife scientists of the Urban Coyote Research Project as they carry on their twenty-five-year mission: studying the coyotes of Cook County, Illinois, home to the city of Chicago. Explore questions such as 'Where did the coyotes come from--and why?,' 'Are they a danger to Chicagoans?,' and 'Do predators create healthier urban ecosystems?' with real-life scientists in the field. Started by urban ecologist Stan Gehrt in the late 1990s when coyotes were first noticed entering the Chicago region, the Urban Coyote Research Project's mission is to help coyotes and human city dwellers live together in peace"

The riveting examination of the notorious trial of a teacher whose arrest for teaching science reverberates to this day.Highlighting the quiet dignity of a teacher who stood up for his students’ right to learn, Anita Sanchez captures the passion, personalities, and pageantry of the infamous “Monkey Trial.” When John Scopes defied Tennessee state law to teach his students about evolution in 1925, his resulting trial ignited a firestorm. A breathless international audience followed every detail, as reporters, vehement protestors, and even real monkeys mobbed the courthouse to witness the bitter argument over who controls what students learn—a fight that pitted science against religion and that continues to this day. In a compelling and meticulously researched account, Sanchez brilliantly weaves primary sources and vivid writing together to give readers new insights into the notorious trial and its ongoing implications.
