Shorebird Ecology, Conservation, and Management
Shorebirds are model organisms for illustrating the principles of ecology and excellent subjects for research. Their mating systems are as diverse as any avian group, their migrations push the limits of endurance, and their foraging is easily studied in the open habitats of estuaries and freshwater wetlands. This comprehensive text explores the ecology, conservation, and management of these fascinating birds. Beginning chapters examine phylogenetic relationships between shorebirds and other birds, and cover shorebird morphology, anatomy, and physiology. A section on breeding biology looks in detail at their reproductive biology. Because shorebirds spend much of their time away from breeding areas, a substantial section on non-breeding biology covers migration, foraging ecology, and social behavior. The text also covers shorebird demography, population size, and management issues related to habitat, predators, and human disturbances. Throughout, it emphasizes applying scientific knowledge to the conservation of shorebird populations, many of which are unfortunately in decline.
Summary of Ken Colwell's Starting a Business QuickStart Guide
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Ideas are the beginning of everything, but they are not the end. Everything that has been created by people started out as an idea, but not everything that has been an idea has been created. Execution is the key to making opportunities valuable. #2 Opportunities are an extension of the entrepreneur. They are not just waiting around for an enterprising entrepreneur to come and find them. They are a result of the entrepreneur’s unique blend of background, talent, insight, and perspective. #3 The process of finding ways to evolve ideas into opportunities should be a structured and disciplined one. Instead of searching for new ideas or knowledge, focus on solutions to existing problems. The simpler the better. #4 Opportunities exist because different people have access to different information. What is an idea for one entrepreneur may be an opportunity for another who has the resources and the means to execute it.

Inner City Romance
Guy Colwell’s 1970s underground comic book series Inner City Romance tread new territory: it was filled with stories about prison, black culture, ghetto life, the sex trade, and radical activism. It portrayed the unpleasant realities of life in the inner city, where opportunities were limited and being on the lowest end of the economic ladder meant that one’s vision of the American dream was more about survival than lifestyle choices. Every issue of Inner City Romance is included in this collection, as well as many of the highly detailed paintings Colwell created at the time. In an accompanying text piece, Colwell provides context for the material.
Beak, Tooth and Claw: Living with Predators in Britain
'A must read for all wildlife lovers' Dominic Dyer Foxes, buzzards, crows, badgers, weasels, seals, kites - Britain and Ireland's predators are impressive and diverse and they capture our collective imagination. But many consider them to our competition, even our enemies. The problem is that predators eat what we farm or use for sport. From foxes and ravens attacking new-born lambs to weasels eating game-bird chicks, predators compete with us, putting them directly into the firing line. Farming, fishing, sport and leisure industries want to see numbers of predators reduced, and conservation organisations also worry that predators are threatening some endangered species. Other people, though,...
