A groundbreaking two-volume illustrated reference book covering all of Europe's birds Would you like to be able to identify any bird species in Europe, in all plumages, in every season? ID Handbook of European Birds is the resource for you. This identification...

The definitive photographic guide to North American gulls Gull identification can be challenging for even the most seasoned birder. While these birds are common to coasts, lakes, and rivers, they exhibit remarkable plumage changes related to age, which is sometimes complicated...

An authoritative illustrated guide to the fearsome predators that dominated the Mesozoic world for 180 million years New discoveries are transforming our understanding of the theropod dinosaurs, revealing startling new insights into the lives and look of these awesome...

Timely and provocative reflections on the future of the wild in an increasingly human world The Heart of the Wild brings together some of today's leading scientists, humanists, and nature writers to offer a thought-provoking meditation on the urgency of learning about...

Evaluating Climate Change Impacts discusses assessing and quantifying climate change and its impacts from a multi-faceted perspective of ecosystem, social, and infrastructure resilience, given through a lens of statistics and data science. It provides a multi-disciplinary view on the implications...

A beautifully illustrated guide to the natural history and breathtaking diversity of spiders around the world Spiders are dominant predators in virtually every terrestrial ecosystem on the planet. A marvel of evolution with species numbering in the tens of thousands, they have...

One of the twentieth century's great paleontologists and science writers, Stephen Jay Gould was, for Bruce S. Lieberman and Niles Eldredge, also a close colleague, mentor, and friend. In Macroevolutionaries, they take up the tradition of Gould's acclaimed essays on natural history,...

This comprehensive volume  navigates through the complexities of Earth's ionosphere and its intricate relationship with GNSS spread-spectrum signals. The book delineates the nuanced structures and dynamics of Earth's atmosphere, offering profound insights into signal propagation, including a...

An eminently readable overview of the history and physics of galaxies. In Galaxies, Or Graur offers a brief and fascinating overview of the history, physics, and astrophysical uses of galaxies. Starting with the history of the last two thousand years of galaxy studies,...

A contemporary defense of conservationist Aldo Leopold's vision for human interaction with the environment. Informed by his experiences as a hunter, forester, wildlife manager, ecologist, conservationist, and professor, Aldo Leopold developed a view he called the land ethic. In a classic...

This book focuses on the study of the dynamical properties of hadron resonances, especially their transition processes by electromagnetic and strong interactions, by using the holographic quantum chromodynamics (QCD) model. Understanding the nature of hadrons leads to revealing non-perturbative...

The main objective of this volume is to discuss the physical properties, observational signals and various probes of compact objects in the Universe. These include black holes, neutron stars, and exotic objects studied in alternative theories of gravity. The text is mainly addressed to postgraduate...

This book covers the theory, concepts, and applications associated with electricity and magnetism. It discusses various fundamental aspects including Coulomb's Law, electric potential, capacitors, dielectrics, and paramagnetism. Aimed at undergraduate students with an elementary knowledge of...

This book presents the proceedings of the XXV DAE-BRNS High Energy Physics (HEP) Symposium 2022, held at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Mohali, India. This proceeding marks the 25th edition. The latest results covering both the theoretical and the experimental aspects of the...

This book provides a systematic study of spectral and scattering theory  for many-body Schrödinger operators at two-cluster thresholds. While the  two-body problem (reduced after separation of the centre of mass motion to a one-body problem at zero energy) is a well-studied subject, the...

The proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Chaos, Complexity, and Leadership present various concepts of diverse research methodologies to explore chaos and complexity across different scientific fields of leadership. Particular emphasis will be placed on investigating non-linearity to...
