Unsettling Absences
In Unsettling Absences, Eric Thompson argues that urbanism is a cultural force unbound from the city and is a pervasive presence in the Malaysian countryside. Transported to rural communities, urbanism has motivated migration, transformed the social lives of rural inhabitants, and created a deep ambivalence about personal identity. This has left rural Malays feeling out of place in both the city and the village. Kuala Lumpur epitomises modernity, but rural Malays who move there are often marginalised in squatter settlements on its periphery. The kampung symbolises home and the locus of Malay identity, but schoolbooks and television have projected urbanism that marks rural life as backwards a...
The Forgotten Pollinators
Consider this: Without interaction between animals and flowering plants, the seeds and fruits that make up nearly eighty percent of the human diet would not exist. In The Forgotten Pollinators, Stephen L. Buchmann, one of the world's leading authorities on bees and pollination, and Gary Paul Nabhan, award-winning writer and renowned crop ecologist, explore the vital but little-appreciated relationship between plants and the animals they depend on for reproduction -- bees, beetles, butterflies, hummingbirds, moths, bats, and countless other animals, some widely recognized and other almost unknown. Scenes from around the globe -- examining island flora and fauna on the Galapagos, counting bees...

Letters from the Hive
They work hard, are devoted to family, love sex, and know the importance of a good piece of real estate. Honey bees, and the daily workings of their close-knit colonies, are one of nature's great miracles. And they produce one of nature's greatest edible bounties: honey. More than just a palate pleaser, honey was once an offering to the gods, a preservative, and a medicine whose sought-after curative powers were detailed in ancient texts . . . and are being rediscovered by modern medical science. In Letters from the Hive, Prof. Stephen Buchmann takes us into the hive--nursery, honey factory, queen's inner sanctum--and out to the world of backyard gardens, open fields, and deserts in full blo...

Honey Bees
In Honey Bees: Letters From the Hive, bee expert Stephen Buchmann takes readers on an incredible tour. Enter a beehive--one part nursery, one part honey factory, one part queen bee sanctum--then fly through backyard gardens, open fields, and deserts where wildflowers bloom. It's fascinating--and delicious! Hailed for their hard work and harmonious society, bees make possible life on earth as we know it. This fundamental link between bees and humans reaches beyond biology to our environment and our culture: bees have long played important roles in art, religion, literature, and medicine--and, of course, in the kitchen. For honey fanatics and all who have a sweet tooth, this book not only entertains and enlightens but also reminds us of the fragility of humanity's relationship with nature. Includes illustrations and photographs throughout.
Sutera Kasih
Kata pujangga Hamka, cinta manusia melalui beberapa pintu. Ada pintu kasih, pintu sayang dan pintu rindu. Tetapi cinta yang paling abadi ialah cinta yang melewati pintu simpati. Benarkah?

Sejak disahkan kedua-dua buah pinggangnya tidak berfungsi dan tidak mampu memberikan zuriat, dia menarik diri. Jujur diakui, saat itu seakan lenyap semua harapan dan semangat. Namun, wanita cekal ini masih ada akal, ada perasaan dan juga iman. Dia menerima hitam putih kehidupan ini sebagai ketentuan yang telah tersurat. Hidup mesti diteruskan! Faris memulakan kehidupan barunya dengan Syima. Kuasa ALLAH... Syima mengetahui kisah penderitaan Azwa apabila terbaca diari suaminya. Atas dasar kemanusiaan dan simpati, Syima nekad, wanita berhati luhur itu perlu dibantu. Tetapi... mereka tidak pernah bertemu, jauh sekali mengenali hati budi masing-masing.
