The eighty-nine cetacean species that swim our seas and rivers are as diverse as they are intelligent and elusive, from the hundred-foot-long, two-hundred-ton blue whale to the lesser-known tucuxi, ginkgo-toothed beaked whale, and diminutive, critically endangered vaquita. The huge distances these highly migratory creatures cover and the depths they dive mean we catch only the merest glimpses of their lives as they break the surface of the water. But thanks to the marriage of science and technology, we are now beginning to understand their anatomy, complex social structures, extraordinary communication abilities, and behavioral patterns. In this beautifully illustrated guide, renowned marine mammalogist Annalisa Berta draws on the contributions of a pod of fellow whale biologists to present the most comprehensive, authoritative overview ever published of these remarkable aquatic mammals. Opening with an accessible rundown of cetacean biology—including the most recent science on feeding, mating, and communication—Whales, Dolphins, and Porpoises then presents species-specific natural history on a range of topics, from anatomy and diet to distribution and conservation status. Each entry also includes original drawings of the species and its key identifiers, such as fin shape and color, tooth shape, and characteristic markings as they would appear both above and below water—a feature unique to this book. Figures of myth and—as the debate over hunting rages on—figures of conflict since long before the days of Moby-Dick, whales, dolphins, and porpoises are also ecologically important and, in many cases, threatened. Written for general enthusiasts, emergent cetacean fans, and biologists alike, this stunning, urgently needed book will serve as the definitive guide for years to come.

This is the story of Australian Aborigines and dolphins, both possessing amazing powers of non-verbal communication over great distances. Long ago, before the white mancame both enjoyed a mutually benevolent relationship—often dolphins helped Aborigines fish; they warned them of approaching storms, and eventually of the invasion of the British ships. But after the British had conquered and killed many natives and forced the rest onto reservations in the interior of the land, they lost touch with each other.. Fast forward to today. An American family comes to Australia to live.The mother, a sociologist, accompanied by her children, goes to interview an Aborigine chief, They hear the chief tell of the sad loss of that relationship with the dolphins, including every year at summer solstice, they had had a celebration on the island lagoon, with the dolphins jumping and spinning and imitating the Aborigines playing flutes, sticks, and boomerangs. But now, sadly, all was lost. The children decided to go on an adventure with their new friend, the chief’s granddaughter. They borrowed a rowboat and started to cross the channel when a storm came up. Suddently there were several large bodies, the dolphins, pushing the boat toward the island lagoon. There they made new friends in the shallow waters of the barrier reef island. Their mission - to put the dolphins back in touch with their Aborogine friends attracted attention from all over the world. Finally there was a celebration like none other at the lagoon on the barrier island. It was the return of the ”corroborree” only this time with international celebrities to join in the “symphony of joy”. And the Aborigines, who had been almost a forgotten race until then, resumed their rightful place as Caretakers of Mother Earth.

This important new text demonstrates how art therapy can make a major contribution to the treatment of children who are seriously ill, in foster care, physically and emotionally traumatized, as well as deviant and addicted adolescents, young adults, and with the aftermath of a spouse's suicide. The first three chapters of this book set the framework providing established developmental structure, holistic interactions of mind/body and attachment essentials for human beings. In the following chapters authors that are experts in facilitating art as healing with people of different ages and in different settings share their insights, images, and stories about treating developmental issues of angst and trauma. Of special interest are the two chapters on brain development and function, indicating that art therapy can make a major contribution to the healing of trauma because creative activity literally changes the traumatized typography of the brain. Information about the importance of bilateral integration as seen in both Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and art therapy contributing to healing trauma is discussed. There is a special segment on art therapy and a new approach to the treatment of trauma with a sequence of chapters devoted to the ways art therapy facilitates healing of issues throughout the life span. The Instinctual Trauma Response (ITR) is examined, which resolves the client's trauma without abreaction or re-experiencing the event and without the use of medication. In addition, there is clinical documentation of the successful resolution of different kinds of trauma with a variety of clients at various stages of development. These cases include the trauma of multiple surgeries, family violence, and witness to death. The book concludes with a discussion of how art therapy has helped the elderly and their caretakers deal with issues of Alzheimer's and death. This is a book that contains significant “new” material that is a major contribution to the art therapy field.
