A Dog's World
From two of the world’s leading authorities on dogs, an imaginative journey into a future of dogs without people What would happen to dogs if humans simply disappeared? Would dogs be able to survive on their own without us? A Dog’s World imagines a posthuman future for dogs, revealing how dogs would survive—and possibly even thrive—and explaining how this new and revolutionary perspective can guide how we interact with dogs now. Drawing on biology, ecology, and the latest findings on the lives and behavior of dogs and their wild relatives, Jessica Pierce and Marc Bekoff—two of today’s most innovative thinkers about dogs—explore who dogs might become without direct human interve...

A Brief Natural History of Civilization
A compelling evolutionary narrative that reveals how human civilization follows the same ecological rules that shape all life on Earth Offering a bold new understanding of who we are, where we came from, and where we are going, noted ecologist Mark Bertness argues that human beings and their civilization are the products of the same self-organization, evolutionary adaptation, and natural selection processes that have created all other life on Earth. Bertness follows the evolutionary process from the primordial soup of two billion years ago through today, exploring the ways opposing forces of competition and cooperation have led to current assemblages of people, animals, and plants. Bertness's thoughtful examination of human history from the perspective of natural history provides new insights about why and how civilization developed as it has and explores how humans, as a species, might have to consciously overrule our evolutionary drivers to survive future challenges.
L'aube des mythes
On sait bien peu de choses sur la façon dont nos ancêtres préhistoriques concevaient la mort. Le faible nombre de sépultures paléolithiques attestées, la difficulté à interpréter les vestiges exhumés ou à attribuer l'enterrement et le traitement réservé aux corps à des rituels funéraires ne permettent guère d'en inférer des représentations. Pourtant, les humains qui nous ont précédés devaient avoir des croyances à propos de l'Au-delà. Leur refuser de s'être interrogés sur cette perspective, au même titre que nous le faisons, reviendrait à oublier notre appartenance commune à une même espèce. Mais comment combler les lacunes de l'archéologie ? Après Cosmogonies...
Краткая естественная история цивилизации
Продолжая линию, намеченную классиками научно-популярной литературы Джаредом Даймондом и Ювалем Харари, почетный профессор биологии Брауновского университета Марк Бертнесс рассматривает историю цивилизации как продолжение естественной истории. Так, эволюция – это не только дарвиновская борьба за существование в рамках естественного отбора, но и взаимовыгодное межвидовое сотрудничество, и именно оно лежит в основе всех процессов на Земле, от зарождения жизни до становления культуры. А значит, человеческая цивилизация – не случайность и не воплощение блестящей идеи, а эволюционная судьба.В формате PDF A4 сохранен издательский макет.
