Noi e loro
Era la metà del Settecento quando il naturalista Linneo collocò definitivamente l'uomo nel regno animale, e la metà dell'Ottocento quando Charles Darwin dimostrò che noi animali siamo tutti parenti. Stiamo infatti tutti, seppure appollaiati su rami differenti, sullo stesso albero della vita. Facciamocene una ragione - ci esorta l'etologo Mainardi - e, tra l'altro, scopriremo che si tratta di una splendida ragione. Basta guardare un bambino che gioca in un prato col suo cane: non sono nemmeno parenti stretti - l'uno è un primate, l'altro è un ex lupo - eppure sono tutti e due esseri sociali e intelligenti. Il loro rapporto è naturale, sprizzano empatia. Comunque, anche se si tratta di ...

A Critical Companion to Zoosemiotics:

Such crisis involves their impact on, and role within, society; their popularity among students and scholars; and their identity as producers and promoters of knowledge. The modern western world and its economic policies have been identified as the strongest cause of such a crisis. Creating the conditions for, but in fact encouraging it. However, a self-critical assessment of the situation is called for. Our primary fault as humanists was that of stubbornly thinking that the world’s changes could never really affec...
Vertebrate Mating Systems
This book reviews the relationship of mating systems with other aspects of vertebrate biology. It presents many stimulating new perspectives and ideas on mating systems studies. While many of the authors present some of their own research, in all cases they underline the general relevance of their work and speculate on future directions of scientific inquiry.
Sustainable Venice: Suggestions for the Future
It is universally recognised that Venice and its lagoon are of such value that they constitute an international public good that must be preserved for humanity as a whole. But such an ambitious task requires a diversified, sustainable set of economic activities, mostly focused on the production of services and non-material goods. This complex issue is analyzed using different approaches, with a discussion of the case of Venice as an example of some of the most relevant problems concerning the relation between the environment and development in the contemporary world: the trade-off between preserving an ecosystem and considering it as an economic resource; the evolution of different urban gro...
