There are first person interviews: hear from a honey hunter and his avian partners, a scientist working to understand the hidden language of prairie dogs, an offshore radio DJ who is at the heart of the local fishing community. Examine old examples of bird song notation written on sheet music.<br/><br/>Featuring over 500 extraordinary plants, animals, and natural phenomena with illustrations and photos on every page, first person interviews, and engaging infographics, the book takes readers around the globe, with stops in every continent---from Arctic deserts to lush jungles, to the deepest fathoms of the ocean, and into the heart of our densest cities. In a time where the world that feels more knowable than ever, where can access anything with the click of a mouse or a swipe of a finger, and where nature documentaries are a dime a dozen, Wild Life finds a way to reinvigorate our send of wonder about the natural world.</p>

The Bridge Between Worlds Bok
<p>In a world increasingly preoccupied by borders, bridges celebrate the possibility of connection, allowing the flow of goods, people and ideas. Bridges are among our grandest physical structures with the power of transforming lives and economies, but we also stand (or fall) upon the simple arch of bones in our feet. Text is a bridge between writer and reader, and conversation builds bridges of understanding between minds.<br/><br/>Dr Gavin Francis has spent his life fascinated by the power of bridges to improve human connection. In <i>The Bridge Between Worlds</i> he examines bridges both actual and metaphorical, on a journey through more than twenty countries, across four decades of travel.<br/><br/>From Rome's Ponte Sant'Angelo to Brooklyn, Victoria Falls to London, Singapore to Siberia, this thought-provoking book reflects on connections between nations and between individuals. Francis demonstrates what the building of bridges has meant to our civilisation, how crossings can enrich our lives, and the price we pay when we tear them down.</p>
