Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Step into the shadows and listenUsually, youll hear a bat before you see it the gentle flutter of wings, their high-pitched chatter as they dive and roll for insects. Only occasionally do you spot them, a blur against the evening sky, quickly fading into the dark. Despite their elusiveness, bats are some of the most successful animals on Earth with nearly 1,500 known species. From the tiny bumblebee bat who could rest comfortably on your index finger to the giant golden-crowned flying fox, whose wingspan stretches well over one and half metres, they are evolutionary marvels, adapted to practically every environment. Reaching speeds of up to 100 mph, they leave cheetahs in the dust. And, while the notorious vampire bat feasts on blood, others are vegetarian, subsisting on fruit and nectar, pollinating vital crops mangoes, bananas, guavas in the process. Most remarkably, they are the only mammal that can fly.Yossi Yovel, an ecologist and a neurobiologist, has spent his life trekking through muddy rainforests and camping in star-covered deserts in pursuit of bats secrets. Only recently have we begun to understand the lives of these majestic and oft-maligned creatures and The Genius Bat draws on the latest research to shed light on their mysterious nocturnal lives as well as the obsessive and eccentric people who study them. Eye-opening and entertaining, youll never think of bats the same way again. An awe-inspiring journey to understand bats by the worlds leading expert Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. Princeton. 1992. Princeton University Press. Reprinted Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0691020795. 248 pages. paperback. keywords: Philosophy. DESCRIPTION - This ambitious study presents Baruch Spinoza (1632-1677) as the most outstanding and influential thinker of modernity - and examines the question of whether he was the 'first secular Jew.' A number-one bestseller in Israel, Spinoza and Other Heretics is made up of two volumes - The Marrano of Reason and The Adventures of Immanence. Yirmiyahu Yovel shows how Spinoza grounded a philosophical revolution in a radically new principlethe philosophy of immanence, or the idea that this world is all there is - and how he thereby anticipated secularization, the Enlightenment, the disintegration of ghetto life, and the rise of natural science and the liberal-democratic state. The Adventures of Immanence - Here Yovel discloses the presence of Spinoza's philosophical revolution in the work of later thinkers who helped shape the modern mind. He claims it is no accident that some of the most unorthodox and innovative figures in the past two centuries - including Goethe, Kant, Hegel, Heine, Marx, Nietzsche, Freud, and Einstein - were profoundly influenced by Spinoza and shared his view that immanent reality is the only source of valid social and political norms and that recognizing this fact is necessary for human liberation. But what is immanent reality, and how is liberation to be construed? In a work that constitutes a retelling of much of Western intellectual history, Yovel analyzes the rival answers given to these questions and, in so doing, provides a fresh view of a wide range of individual thinkers. inventory #35024.…
