 The Inner Bird Anatomy and Evolution【電子書籍】[ Gary W. Kaiser ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Birds are among the most successful vertebrates on Earth. An important part of our natural environment and deeply embedded in our culture, birds are studied by more professional ornithologists and enjoyed by more amateur enthusiasts than ever before. However, both amateurs and professionals typically focus on birds’ behaviour and appearance and only superficially understand the characteristics that make birds so unique.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Inner Bird＜/em＞ introduces readers to the avian skeleton, then moves beyond anatomy to discuss the relationships between birds and dinosaurs and other early ancestors. Gary Kaiser examines the challenges scientists face in understanding avian evolution - even recent advances in biomolecular genetics have failed to provide a clear evolutionary story. Using examples from recently discovered fossils of birds and near-birds, Kaiser describes an avian history based on the gradual abandonment of dinosaur-like characteristics, and the related acquisition of avian characteristics such as sophisticated flight techniques and the production of large eggs. Such developments have enabled modern birds to invade the oceans and to exploit habitats that excluded dinosaurs for millions of years.＜/p＞ ＜p＞While ornithology is a complex discipline that draws on many fields, it is nevertheless burdened with obsolete assumptions and archaic terminology. ＜em＞The Inner Bird＜/em＞ offers modern interpretations for some of those ideas and links them to more current research. It should help anyone interested in birds to bridge the gap between long-dead fossils and the challenges faced by living species.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 5,632円 |

 Birds, Sex and Beauty The Extraordinary Implications of Charles Darwin's Strangest Idea【電子書籍】[ Matt Ridley ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞"[An] intriguing philosophical journey into a critical issue within evolutionary theory that for too long has remained unresolved."＜/strong＞ ＜strong＞ー＜em＞Wall Street Journal＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Matt Ridley is one of our finest science writers. This book is a treat for bird lovers and evolutionary biologists alike.” ーRichard Dawkins, author of ＜em＞The Genetic Book of The Dead＜/em＞ and ＜em＞The God Delusion＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞The ＜em＞New York Times＜/em＞ bestselling author of ＜em＞Genome＜/em＞ and ＜em＞The Evolution of Everything＜/em＞ revisits Darwin’s revelatory theory of mate choice through the close study of the peculiar rituals of birds, and considers how this mating process complicates our own view of human evolution.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞In all animals, mating is a deal. But few creatures behave as if sex is a simple, even mutually beneficial, transaction. Many more treat it with reverence, suspicion, angst, and violence. In the case of the Black Grouse, the bird at the center of Matt Ridley’s investigation, the males dance and sing for hours a day, for several exhausting months, in an arduous and even deadly ritual called a “lek.” To prepare for the ordeal, they grow, preen and display fancy, twisted, bold-colored feathers. When achieved, consummation with a female takes seconds. So why the months of practice and preparation that is elaborate, extravagant, exhausting and elegant?＜/p＞ ＜p＞The full answer remains a mystery. Evolutionary biologists can explain why males are generally the eager sellers, females the discriminating buyers. But they struggle to explain why, in some species, this extravagance goes beyond the mere gaudy, taking on bizarre shapes, postures, and behavior. And further, why these bird displays seem beautiful to us humans, a species with seemingly no skin in the game.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Using an early morning “lek" as his starting point, Ridley explores the scientific research into the evolution of bright colors, exotic ornaments, and elaborate displays in birds around the world. Charles Darwin thought the purpose of such displays was to "charm" females. Though Darwin’s theory was initially dismissed and buried for decades, recent scientific research has proven him newly rightーthere is a powerful evolutionary force quite distinct from natural selection: mate choice. In ＜em＞Birds, Sex and Beauty＜/em＞, Ridley reopens the history of Darwin’s vexed theory, laying bare a century of disagreement about an idea so powerful, so weird, and so wonderful, we may have yet to fully understand its implications.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 2,989円 |

 Seeking Refuge Birds and Landscapes of the Pacific Flyway【電子書籍】[ Robert M Wilson ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Each fall and spring, millions of birds travel the Pacific Flyway, the westernmost of the four major North American bird migration routes. The landscapes they cross vary from wetlands to farmland to concrete, inhabited not only by wildlife but also by farmers, suburban families, and major cities. In the twentieth century, farmers used the wetlands to irrigate their crops, transforming the landscape and putting migratory birds at risk. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service responded by establishing a series of refuges that stretched from northern Washington to southern California.＜/p＞ ＜p＞What emerged from these efforts was a hybrid environment, where the distinctions between irrigated farms and wildlife refuges blurred. Management of the refuges was fraught with conflicting priorities and practices. Farmers and refuge managers harassed birds with shotguns and flares to keep them off private lands, and government pilots took to the air, dropping hand grenades among flocks of geese and herding the startled birds into nearby refuges. Such actions masked the growing connections between refuges and the land around them.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Seeking Refuge＜/em＞ examines the development and management of refuges in the wintering range of migratory birds along the Pacific Flyway. Although this is a history of efforts to conserve migratory birds, the story Robert Wilson tells has considerable salience today. Many of the key places migratory birds use ー the Klamath Basin, California’s Central Valley, the Salton Sea ー are sites of recent contentious debates over water use. Migratory birds connect and depend on these landscapes, and farmers face pressure as water is reallocated from irrigation to other purposes. In a time when global warming promises to compound the stresses on water and migratory species, ＜em＞Seeking Refuge＜/em＞ demonstrates the need to foster landscapes where both wildlife and people can thrive.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,934円 |

 Avian Reservoirs Virus Hunters and Birdwatchers in Chinese Sentinel Posts【電子書籍】[ Fr?d?ric Keck ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞After experiencing the SARS outbreak in 2003, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan all invested in various techniques to mitigate future pandemics involving myriad cross-species interactions between humans and birds. In some locations microbiologists allied with veterinarians and birdwatchers to follow the mutations of flu viruses in birds and humans and create preparedness strategies, while in others, public health officials worked toward preventing pandemics by killing thousands of birds. In ＜em＞Avian Reservoirs＜/em＞ Fr?d?ric Keck offers a comparative analysis of these responses, tracing how the anticipation of bird flu pandemics has changed relations between birds and humans in China. Drawing on anthropological theory and ethnographic fieldwork, Keck demonstrates that varied strategies dealing with the threat of pandemicsーstockpiling vaccines and samples in Taiwan, simulating pandemics in Singapore, and monitoring viruses and disease vectors in Hong Kongーreflect local geopolitical relations to mainland China. In outlining how interactions among pathogens, birds, and humans shape the way people imagine future pandemics, Keck illuminates how interspecies relations are crucial for protecting against such threats.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 4,637円 |

Futuyma ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞A marvelous journey＜/strong＞ ＜strong＞into the world of bird evolution＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞How Birds Evolve＜/em＞ explores how evolution has shaped the distinctive characteristics and behaviors we observe in birds today.

He explains why some parts of the planet have so many more species than others, and asks what an evolutionary perspective brings to urgent questions about bird extinction and habitat destruction. Along the way, Futuyma provides an insider's perspective on how biologists practice evolutionary science, from studying the fossil record to comparing DNA sequences among and within species.＜/p＞ ＜p＞A must-read for bird enthusiasts and curious naturalists, ＜em＞How Birds Evolve＜/em＞ shows how evolutionary biology helps us better understand birds and their natural history, and how the study of birds has informed all aspects of evolutionary science since the time of Darwin.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 3,045円 |
