![]() ![]() Author: Brown David W. Publisher: Hoepli Mentre l'umanità si interroga sugli equilibri ambientali e umani del pianeta, la ricerca spaziale sta attraversando - dagli anni '50 del secolo scorso a oggi - un'epoca d'oro che ha portato a vivere lo spazio come mai prima d'ora. La Stazione Spaziale Internazionale, i numerosissimi satelliti ormai indispensabili per la nostra vita quotidiana, le ricerche per estrarre minerali dai corpi celesti a noi più prossimi (Luna, Marte, Asteroidi) sono soltanto le prime di una serie di conquiste che l'umanità si appresta a conseguire. Mandare un uomo e, per la prima volta, una donna sulla Luna è un obiettivo quasi raggiunto, così come è ormai una possibilità concreta l'invio di avanposti con presenza umana sul suolo selenico e, in futuro, anche su Marte. Ma esiste una condizione fondamentale perché tutto questo possa avvenire: le attività umane nello spazio devono essere sostenibili, per non ripetere gli errori già commessi sulla Terra. L'inquinamento di detriti in orbita, per esempio, è oggi talmente elevato che se dovesse crescere ancora potrebbe impedire lo stesso lancio di veicoli spaziali, mettendo la parola fine a ogni avventura umana al di fuori dell'atmosfera terrestre. Nell'illustrare questo e altri temi connessi, il volume delinea un quadro complessivo di grande interesse e suggestione e, attraverso conversazioni con importanti esperti internazionali su ogni argomento trattato, dà voce ai protagonisti di questa appassionante frontiera dell'avventura umana. € 24,90

![]() ![]() Author: Stephens David W. (EDT), Brown Joel S. (EDT), Ydenberg Ronald C. (EDT) Publisher: Univ of Chicago Pr Foraging is fundamental to animal survival and reproduction, yet it is much more than a simple matter of finding food; it is a biological imperative. Animals must find and consume resources to succeed, and they make extraordinary efforts to do so. For instance, pythons rarely eat, but when they do, their meals are large—as much as 60 percent larger than their own bodies. The snake's digestive system is normally dormant, but during digestion metabolic rates can increase fortyfold. A python digesting quietly on the forest floor has the metabolic rate of thoroughbred in a dead heat. This and related foraging processes have broad applications in ecology, cognitive science, anthropology, and conservation biology—and they can be further extrapolated in economics, neurobiology, and computer science. Foraging is the first comprehensive review of the topic in more than twenty years. A monumental undertaking, this volume brings together twenty-two experts from throughout the field to offer the latest on the mechanics of foraging, modern foraging theory, and foraging ecology. The fourteen essays cover all the relevant issues, including cognition, individual behavior, caching behavior, parental behavior, antipredator behavior, social behavior, population and community ecology, herbivory, and conservation. Considering a wide range of taxa, from birds to mammals to amphibians, Foraging will be the definitive guide to the field. € 61,60
