Raihani N: The Thinking Animal

The Thinking Animal

What Other Minds Reveal About Our Own

Species and Systematics

A goal of macroevolutionary theory is to explain both diversity and disparity - different sometimes uncorrelated characteristics of lineages. These actively researched questions, the growing number of case studies, and the increasingly rigorous theory, has resulted in the re-examination of classical models for evolutionary tempo and mode. Time-calibrated molecular phylogenies are now used in conjunction with quantitative analyses of morphology to evaluate models of evolution. For example, mathematically simple efforts to understand biologically complex traits (such as body size) are common. The major objective of the proposed work is to present novel methods and case-studies of the tempo and mode of evolution of complex morphologies. Recent innovations in methods for describing and modeling complex morphologies, which have the potential to advance the field still further, will be the primary focus of this intended volume.

Macroevolution of Complex Morphologies

This book offers a review and analysis of contemporary forensic investigation, written for students, from the perspective of the practitioner, focusing on the core functions of forensic investigation and the impact of change in the forensic context.

Handbook for Designing and Conducting Clinical and Translational Research

Translational Neurosurgery

A comprehensive overview of the behavioral ecology of a highly social group of North American mammalsBest known for their large colonies, complex burrows, and frequent alarm calls, prairie dogs are diurnal, herbivorous rodents endemic to the grasslands of western North America. Prairie Dogs synthesizes forty-five consecutive years of John Hoogland's pioneering field research on the ecology and social behavior of these remarkable animals, including many far-reaching discoveries published here for the first time. Hoogland investigates all four species of prairie dogs that inhabit the western United States, offering invaluable insights about cooperation and competition among social animals living under natural conditions. He examines topics ranging from alarm calls, mating, predation, and vigilance to conservation, dispersal, population dynamics, and potential avenues for future research. Hoogland presents a wealth of new findings, describing how prairie dogs give alarm calls not only for offspring but also for more distant kin such as nieces, nephews, and first cousins. He documents how females reap substantial benefits from copulating with more than one male; how they avoid incest with offspring, parents, and siblings but regularly copulate with more distant kin; how nonparental infanticide is a major cause of juvenile mortality and varies directly with colony density; and how females of one species improve reproductive success by killing nearby ground squirrels. Rich in personal stories and comparisons with more than five hundred other species ranging from amoebas to humans, this beautifully illustrated book is essential reading for behavioral ecologists and conservation biologists as well as mammalogists and curious naturalists. Hoogland's magnum opus offers a master class in how to do careful long-term research.

The first major publication on mass fatality management when it was published in 1999, the new edition of this bestseller is greatly revised and expanded. Eight new chapters include such topics as international resources, multi-national events, data management, identification management, repatriation, mass burial, and management of contaminated human remains. This revision is based on world events of the past 15 years, many of which the author managed. It includes expanded information on morgue operations, reflects increasing sensitivity to cultural differences, and provides the latest direction for handling the media.

Operative Strategies in Pelvic Exenteration Surgery is a reference for the surgical management of Pelvic Exenteration Surgery. It covers all aspects of surgery from the colorectal, urological, gynecological, and orthopedic point of view. Coverage consolidates the research of world-leaders and includes the history of exenterative study, outlining the current state and indicating future developments. The book also discusses the current surgical operative strategies for the management of locally advanced and recurrent pelvic neoplasms with illustrations, intra-op photos, and supplementary video material. Created from the experiences of an international collaboration of surgeons, this reference is the perfect reference for surgical oncologists, colorectal, gynecology, urology, and vascular surgeons as well as any group involved in complex pelvic surgery including complex open, laparoscopic, and robotic surgery.

An Introduction to String Algorithms

From a New York Times bestselling nature writer comes a celebration of what goes on outside in the dark, from blooming moon gardens to nocturnal salamanders, from glowing foxfire and synchronous fireflies that blink in unison like an orchestra of light. In this glorious celebration of the night, New York Times bestselling nature writer Leigh Ann Henion invites us to leave our well-lit homes, step outside, and embrace the dark as a profoundly beautiful part of the world we inhabit. Because no matter where we live, we are surrounded by animals that rise with the moon, and blooms that reveal themselves as light fades. Henion explores her home region of Appalachia, where she attends a synchronous firefly event in Tennessee, a bat outing in Alabama, and a moth festival in Ohio. In North Carolina, she finds forests alight with bioluminescent mushrooms, neighborhood trees full of screech owls, and valleys teeming with migratory salamanders. Along the way, Henion encounters naturalists, biologists, primitive-skills experts, and others who've dedicated their lives to cultivating relationships with darkness. Every page of this lyrical book feels like an opportunity to ask: How did I not know about this before? For example, we learn that it can take hours, not minutes, for human eyes to reach full night vision capacity. And that there are thousands of firefly species on earth, many with flash patterns as unique as fingerprints. In an age of increasing artificial light, Night Magic focuses on the amazing biodiversity that still surrounds us after sunset. We do not need to stargaze into the distant cosmos or dive into the depths of oceans to find awe in the dark. There are dazzling wonders in our own backyards. And readers of World of Wonders, Entangled Life, and The Hidden Life of Trees will discover joy in Night Magic.
