Aves Y: Intertidal

Intertidal

The hidden world between land and sea

Seaweeds - or marine algae - are one of the most diverse and dazzling organism groups on the planet. They have existed for over 1.6 billion years and survived every extinction event on the planet. Capable of thriving in some of the most extreme environments on earth, marine algae are found within in sea ice of the Arctic Ocean, as well as extreme acid, alkali and salt environments, and have been recorded at ocean depths of over 200m. Professor Juliet Brodie, internationally renowned expert on marine algae, reveals their beauty and complexity - showing how they are vital not only to our global ecosystems but to the future of the planet. Professor Brodie explains the evolutionary significance, symbiotic relationships and strange sex lives of these curious organisms, and profiles 45 different species from around the world - each chosen to reflect a unique or fascinating aspect of these extraordinary organisms.

The Hidden Universe

'A wondrous work of walking, seeing and thinking' - Robert Macfarlane'A startlingly brilliant and moving debut' - William DalrympleA deep observation of coast and wetland, climate and self, by a leading Indian ecological activist. Introduction by Robert Macfarlane. Written in spellbinding prose, Intertidal reveals an unseen world. We hear frog calls through the night, spot butterflies miles into the ocean, see the churning of longshore currents, and meditate on worms' composting abilities. We also witness communities standing together to preserve the homes of the coast's inhabitants, both human and non-human. Intertidal asks us to reimagine values to live by; heeding the natural world, attending to the climate's calling, and moving away from the old political and cultural values that have proven ecologically disastrous. Set in beaches, marshes, and the wild places of the mind, Intertidal revels in the healing power of nature and explores what it means to reclaim an ecology that has been colonised.

Posthumanism in Practice

Traditional Western attitudes towards death deal with it as a painful inevitability, something that has to be navigated as a trauma and a taboo. They focus essentially on the 'management' of death, an anthropocentric practice prioritising the human life above every other type of existence.

Patricia MacCormack explores how we can develop a 'death activism' - a variety of tactics and posthuman practices which celebrate death, its inevitability, its forms, from the slow to times of crisis, and how trauma and mourning emerge as their own forms of expression. Crucial to the foundation of death activism is the dissymmetry with which different deaths are met including the mass death of nonhuman animals and ecologies.
 
Death Activism is a feminist, queer, postcolonialist enquiry, that seeks to queer death - making queer our usual familiar death habits and trajectories of thought, toward a jubilant activism that can transform death into a more democratically equal, and a more jubilant force for life.

Death Activism

In this iconoclastic and sure to be contentious re-casting by a renowned critic, the great American novel Moby Dick&nbsp;is presented as a work that has been widely misread, an error that continues to this day. According to Barry Sanders, Herman Melville's best- known work is not a novel, does not pretend to be a novel, and was not intended by its author to be read as a novel.&nbsp;Moby Dick&nbsp;is this country's first manifesto, a tocsin sounded to warn us about the encroaching end of nature.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Manifesto of Herman Melville&nbsp;traces the evolution of&nbsp;Moby Dick-from its awful, initial reception, very rapidly passing out of print, to its remarkable revival to become lauded as one of America's great literary classics.&nbsp; That turnaround happened in the early decades of the 20th century and was, in great part, the result of the new and radical aesthetic movements such as surrealism, dadaism, and cubism that allowed for a radical reading of the book.&nbsp;The novel's new standing as one of the keystones of the American cannon disguises its deeper meaning as an alarm bell, an obscuring which Barry Sanders, in a critical assessment that is as persuasive as it is provocative, seeks to clear away. Sanders argues that Moby Dick needs to be recognized as Melville's manifesto: a bold statement warning of the destruction of the natural world made most evident in the book's central metaphor the relentless pursuit to kill the whale, the first sentient being in Genesis and one of the most startling mammals-possessed of hair and scales, a tail and breasts-and the largest of the creatures on earth, weighing up to 400,000 pounds. Whalers in Melville's day hunted down and killed these extraordinary behemoths of nature, for their oil, sold to people for cooking and to light their homes. Today the pursuit for energy has shifted dramatically, from sea to land, &nbsp;but the prize remains the same: &nbsp;energy producing fuel for which entrepreneurs and adventurers are prepared to kill off all of nature.&nbsp;

A fascinating insight into life at Kew Gardens, following the Tree Gang over the course of a year.

Stretching across two-thirds of the Gardens, the arboretum at Kew surrounds the glasshouses in a leafy enclave to walk, wander and discover nature's beauty. The 12,000 trees rooted in the arboretum represent more than 2,000 species, including rare and ancient varieties. This great collection contains trees as old as the Gardens themselves, many that cannot be found anywhere else in Britain. But who looks after these vast landscapes? Introducing the Tree Gang - Kew's team of eight who work tirelessly throughout the year to maintain this rare collection. In this brand new seasonal guide, you'll discover the fascinating work of the Tree Gang. Going behind the scenes, you'll learn more about life at Kew from the people who tend and care for the Gardens - from the daily tree assessments to the intermittent tree felling. As the climate becomes more variable, the gang's work is ever more crucial as they brace for the storms ahead. The Kew Gardeners weaves together heartwarming stories alongside the fascinating life of trees. This book will inspire you to learn from the experts, and grow an appreciation for the trees around you.
