James O'Hanlon's (Silk and Venom; Sid and the Very Hard to Find Squid) latest book is not a gentle walk through nature. He invites us to meet some of the world's most dastardly creatures, who lie, cheat and deceive for a living.
Ecologist and adventure traveller Simon Mustoe takes a positive perspective on the power of our relationship with animals and nature and shows us we are already on our way to rebuilding a healthy, habitable planet.
ABBEY'S BOOKSELLER PICK ----- This is a collection of stories from Australia’s favourite urban ecologist, Darryl Jones, exploring the connections people have with other creatures and how sometimes nature can take advantage of the changes we have wrought upon the environment.
Engaging with nature doesn’t always have to be in the wilderness, nor does it have to impact upon wild animals, and this book shows that we still know too little about the complexities of the natural world. If we don't engage with what's around us, we risk ecological amnesia – but this is a malady that can be remedied, wherever we are.
From the icy Arctic to the steamy jungles of Borneo, or the African savannah and rural Australia, this is conversational rather than confrontational, and all the more convincing... Lindy
YouTube sensations Dr Matt and Dr Mike ask a lot of questions and provide a lot of answers ...
Did you know that liquorice was used to stave off dehydration by desert-dwelling nomadic tribes? Have you ever considered what happens to someone's body when they don't eat for 382 days?
Dr Matt & Dr Mike invite you on an entertaining, eye-opening A-Z tour of the human body like you've never seen before.
Award-winning journalist Walter Marsh (Young Rupert) delves deeply into the truly bizarre story of Colin Wyatt, a mysterious 20th-century collector – Cambridge educated, ski champion, mountaineer, wartime camouflager, artist and amateur naturalist – who made off with 40,000 butterfly specimens from Australian museums.
It's a story of the most audacious serial heist in the history of Australia's museums – and the British gentleman adventurer who got away with it – in a scientific true crime caper stretching from the European Alps to the jungles of Guatemala.
Along the way, Marsh reveals a deeper history of gentleman explorers, scoundrels, and grave-robbers that begs an uncomfortable but vital question – What if Western museums were crime scenes all along?
Set against the backdrop of a rapidly unfolding mass extinction event, Nature’s Last Dance takes readers across hunting grounds, through jungles and oceans, inside communities, through courtrooms, and into the heart of battles to survive against all odds.
Award-winning environmentalist Natalie Kyriacou confronts the extinction crisis with courage and curiosity, charting a new course for nature and showing us why it is so worth fighting for.
Several years ago, Jane Rawson packed up her beloved inner-city home and moved to the bush. Scared about what climate change would do to the big city, and keen to meet more animals, she found a new home in a cottage in the Huon Valley. But in a place where nature never really leaves you alone, she had to confront her uncomfortable relationship with the outdoors.
Lottie Dalziel’s (founder of Banish and BRAD) book seeks to answer the questions that we all have – how to live well but with less impact on the planet, while saving money at the same time …
Dr Sara Webb shares her enthusiasm for the question: What, in the end, will signal the end of the world? It’s the question we all ponder, but what could actually happen?
