In 'Speciation of the Wandering Shrew' by James S. Findley, readers are taken on a scientific journey exploring the process of speciation in a small and elusive mammal. Findley's book is a meticulous examination of the genetic and environmental factors that contribute to the evolution of distinct shrew species, written in a clear and accessible style for both novice and expert readers in the field of evolutionary biology. Through detailed case studies and evolutionary theories, Findley provides a comprehensive overview of shrew speciation, presenting complex concepts in a understandable manner. This book is a valuable contribution to the literature on mammalian evolution and speciation, shed...
There are more than 1,300 species of bats—or almost a quarter of the world’s mammal species. But before you shrink in fear from these furry “creatures of the night,” consider the bat’s fundamental role in our ecosystem. A single brown bat can eat several thousand insects in a night. Bats also pollinate and disperse the seeds for many of the plants we love, from bananas to mangoes and figs. Bats: A World of Science and Mystery presents these fascinating nocturnal creatures in a new light. Lush, full-color photographs portray bats in flight, feeding, and mating in views that show them in exceptional detail. The photos also take the reader into the roosts of bats, from caves and mines...
