The Killer Whale Journals - Hanne Strager

Experience the hauntingly beautiful world of orcas, and discover the stories that unfold when humans enter oceans alongside them. Winner of the National Outdoor Book Award by the NOBA Foundation, Honorable mention for the Sigurd Olson Nature Writing Awards by the Northland CollegeWhen intrepid biology student Hanne Strager volunteered to be the cook on a small research vessel in Norway's Lofoten Islands, the trip inspired a decades-long journey into the lives of killer whales—and an exploration of people's complex relationships with the biggest predators on earth. The Killer Whale Journals chronicles the now internationally renowned science writer's fascinating adventures around the world, documenting Strager's personal experiences with orcas in the wild. Killer whales' incredible intelligence, long life spans, and strong family bonds lead many people to see them as kindred spirits in the sea. But not everyone feels this way—like wolves, orcas have been both beloved and vilified throughout human history. In this absorbing odyssey, Strager traces the complicated relationship between humans and killer whales, while delving into their behavior, biology, and ecology. She brings us along in her travels to the most remote corners of the world, battling the stormy Arctic seas of northern Norway with fellow biologists intent on decoding whale-song, interviewing First Nations conservationists in Vancouver, observing Inuit hunters in Greenland, and witnessing the dismantling of black market "whale jails" in the Russian wilderness of Kamchatka. Through these captivating stories, Strager introduces us to a diverse cast of characters from Inuit elders to Australian Aboriginal whalers and guides us through the world's wild waters, from fjords above the Arctic circle in Norway to the poaching-infested waters off Kamchatka. Featuring astonishing photographs from famed nature photographer and conservationist Paul Nicklen, The Killer Whale Journals reveals rare and intimate moments of connection with these fierce, brilliant predators.

The Selected Poems of Emily Dickinson - Emily Dickinsonová

Explore the essence of life, love, nature, and time in exquisite verse with this elegantly designed edition of Emily Dickinson’s finest poems. Born in 1830 in Amherst, Massachusetts, to a prominent New England family and educated at Amherst Academy and Mt. Holyoke Female Seminary, Emily Elizabeth Dickinson lived most of her life in seclusion, devoted to writing. She scarcely left home, nor did she have many visitors. Only ten of her poems were published in her lifetime, submitted without her permission by friends. It was only after her death in 1886 that the scope of her work as a poet came to light—over 1,700 poems were discovered in a dresser drawer by her sister, Lavinia. Emily Dickinson’s poems reflect her loneliness, as well as her love of nature, the influence of the Metaphysical poets of seventeenth century England, and her strong Puritan religious beliefs. Yet, it is her use of language, form, and the deceptive simplicity of her verse that categorize her as an important force in nineteenth century American letters and, along with Walt Whitman, a founder of a distinctly American voice in modern poetry. PRELUDE THIS is my letter to the world, That never wrote to me,— That simple news that Nature told, With tender majesty. Her message is committed To hands I cannot see; For love of her, sweet countrymen, Judge tenderly of me! The Timeless Classics series from Rock Point brings together the works of classic authors from around the world. Complete and unabridged, these elegantly designed gift editions feature luxe, patterned endpapers, ribbon markers, and foil and deboss details on vibrantly colored cases.

But beneath the surface, tensions simmer, hearts ache, and painful truths threaten to emerge.Sixteen-year-old Catrin Bone knows only what she has been told. Now, she is beginning to question her small world, and a version of the past that seems to entrap and embitter her reclusive mother, Mary.Mary had a sister once, a girl of unparalleled beauty.

Unwinding Bone - Scott Sternthal

Examine biodynamic skeletal therapy (BST) with guidance from its creator. Unwinding Bone is a comprehensive and practical resource on biodynamic skeletal therapy (BST), a gentle, non-manipulative approach that engages with bone as dynamic and responsive tissue. Author Scott Sternthal, DO, the developer of BST, simplifies complex theories in this accessible hands-on guide. The basis of BST is identifying and treating bones that have lost their natural elasticity and vitality. By focusing less on the movement of bones, and more on the movement within them, BST primes the skeleton for further manual treatment. Designed to be used as a tool by manual therapy practitioners, Unwinding Bone offers unparalleled insights into treating bone tissue and uses over 500 photos to visually depict the concepts and procedures in the text. The first half of the book discusses the theory behind BST, with a review of bone anatomy and composition, including bone development, remodeling, and mechanical behavior. The continuity between bone and fascia—the osseofascial continuum—is examined, as well as the concepts of biotensegrity, potency, fulcrum-lever systems, and the rhythms and textures of primary respiration. The second half of Unwinding Bone presents the practical guide, describing a step-by-step procedure for finding and treating osseofascial compactions in nearly every bone in the body. Written by a practitioner for practitioners, Unwinding Bone is an approachable guide to learning how to treat the quality and texture of bone tissue.
