Dit is een fascinerend verhaal over vlinders. Van de functies van de kleuren op hun vleugels tot de mobiliteitsproblemen die ze ervaren. Van de hongersnood waarmee ze kampen in landschappen op mensenmaat tot de analyse van wie de winnaars en verliezers zijn in tijden van klimaatverandering. 0Maar dit boek gaat ook over mensen. Van Dyck verweeft zijn eigen metamorfose van vlinderjongen tot vlinderprofessor in zijn relaas. Het is een verhaal over verwondering en passie voor wetenschap. Over ingenieurs die geïnspireerd raken door vlinders voor technologische ontwikkelingen tot kunstenaars die door hun kleuren en wonderlijke metamorfose in vervoering raken. Het brengt ons uiteindelijk bij een fascinerende 'vlinderparadox': krijg je door gebiologeerd in te zoomen op deze kleine diertjes een bredere kijk op het leven op onze planeet? 0Vooral de studie van een bijzondere vlinder - het bont zandoogje of Pararge aegeria - loopt als een rode draad door het werk van Van Dyck. 'Aegeria' verwijst naar een profetische bosnimf uit de Romeinse mythologie, beschermgodin van Rome, die haar man, koning Numa Pompilius, voorzag van wijze raad. Erg van toepassing op de titel van dit boek.

In Het verhaal van Aeneas doet Vergilius in twaalf hoofdstukken waar Homerus er achtenveertig voor nodig had: zijn held zwerft over zee en voert een oorlog. Tijdens die zwerftocht vertelt Aeneas aan Dido, koningin van Carthago, die dol verliefd op hem is, over de afloop van de strijd om Troje, met het befaamde houten paard. Nadat hij haar heeft verlaten om in Italië te gaan vechten, als voorbereiding op de stichting van Rome, pleegt zij zelfmoord. Al in de oudheid gold Het verhaal van Aeneas als de hoogste top van de Romeinse literatuur. Publius Vergilius Maro (70-19 v.Chr.) wordt ook de Mantuese zwaan genoemd, en niet voor niets: hij kwam uit een dorpje bij Mantua, en zijn grootste werk, de Aeneis oftewel Het verhaal van Aeneas, was zijn zwanenzang. Ruim dertien eeuwen na zijn dood treedt hij trouwens nog op in Dante s Goddelijke komedie.

What if the stories of trees and people are more closely linked than we ever imagined? Winner of the World Wildlife Fund's 2020 Jan Wolkers PrizeOne of Science News's "Favorite Books of 2020" A New York Times "New and Noteworthy" BookA 2020 Woodland Book of the YearGold Winner of the 2020 Foreword INDIES Award in Ecology & EnvironmentBronze Winner of the 2021 Independent Publisher Book Award in Environment/Ecology People across the world know that to tell how old a tree is, you count its rings. Few people, however, know that research into tree rings has also made amazing contributions to our understanding of Earth's climate history and its influences on human civilization over the past 2,000 years. In her captivating book Tree Story, Valerie Trouet reveals how the seemingly simple and relatively familiar concept of counting tree rings has inspired far-reaching scientific breakthroughs that illuminate the complex interactions between nature and people. Trouet, a leading tree-ring scientist, takes us out into the field, from remote African villages to radioactive Russian forests, offering readers an insider's look at tree-ring research, a discipline known as dendrochronology. Tracing her own professional journey while exploring dendrochronology's history and applications, Trouet describes the basics of how tell-tale tree cores are collected and dated with ring-by-ring precision, explaining the unexpected and momentous insights we've gained from the resulting samples. Blending popular science, travelogue, and cultural history, Tree Story highlights exciting findings of tree-ring research, including the fate of lost pirate treasure, successful strategies for surviving California wildfire, the secret to Genghis Khan's victories, the connection between Egyptian pharaohs and volcanoes, and even the role of olives in the fall of Rome. These fascinating tales are deftly woven together to show us how dendrochronology sheds light on global climate dynamics and uncovers the clear links between humans and our leafy neighbors. Trouet delights us with her dedication to the tangible appeal of studying trees, a discipline that has taken her to austere and beautiful landscapes around the globe and has enabled scientists to solve long-pondered mysteries of Earth and its human inhabitants.

INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER *WINNER of the 2021 Banff Mountain Book Prize in Mountain Environment and Natural History* *WINNER of the National Outdoor Book Award for Natural History Literature* *SHORTLISTED for the 2022 BC and Yukon Hubert Evans Non-Fiction Book Prize* *SHORTLISTED for the 2022 BC and Yukon Bill Duthie Booksellers’ Choice Award* *SHORTLISTED for the 2021 Science Writers and Communicators of Canada Book Award* A world-leading expert shares her amazing story of discovering the communication that exists between trees, and shares her own story of family and grief. Suzanne Simard is a pioneer on the frontier of plant communication and intelligence; she’s been compared to Rachel Carson, hailed as a scientist who conveys complex, technical ideas in a way that is dazzling and profound. Her work has influenced filmmakers (the Tree of Souls in James Cameron’s Avatar), and her TED talks have been viewed by more than 10 million people worldwide. Now, in her first book, Simard brings us into her world, the intimate world of the trees, in which she brilliantly illuminates the fascinating and vital truths—that trees are not simply the source of timber or pulp but are a complicated, interdependent circle of life; that forests are social, cooperative creatures connected through underground networks by which trees communicate their vitality and vulnerabilities with communal lives not that different from our own. Simard describes up close—in revealing and accessible ways—how trees, living side by side for hundreds of years, have evolved; how they perceive one another, learn and adapt their behaviors, recognize neighbors, and remember the past; how they have agency about their future; how they elicit warnings and mount defenses, compete and cooperate with one another with sophistication: characteristics previously ascribed to human intelligence, traits that are the essence of civil societies. And, at the center of it all, the Mother Trees: the mysterious, powerful forces that connect and sustain the others that surround them.Simard, born and raised in the rain forests of British Columbia, spent her days as a child cataloging the trees from the forest; she came to love and respect them and embarked on a journey of discovery and struggle. Her powerful story is one of love and loss, of observation and change, of risk and reward. And it is a testament to how deeply human scientific inquiry exists beyond data and technology: it’s about understanding who we are and our place in the world. In her book, as in her groundbreaking research, Simard proves the true connectedness of the Mother Tree to the forest, nurturing it in the profound ways that families and humansocieties nurture one another, and how these inseparable bonds enable all our survival.

Due to the attractiveness of butterflies, and their usefulness as model systems for biological questions, there has been a considerable amount of material written on butterfly biology, largely in Europe. This book synthesizes all relevant and recent knowledge in the field, which is a must for those making use of this taxonomic group as a model system. It is divided into five major parts which deal with habitat use, population ecology and genetics, evolutionary ecology, distribution and phylogeny, and global change and conservation. There are growing numbers of scientific projects and networks in Europe in which the use of butterflies as tools and targets for conservation is central, and application of knowledge is closely related to European cultural landscapes. However, the chapters can also be applied to a wide geographic scope. Written by an international team of experts, this timely book is suitable for students, researchers and enthusiasts.
