What they're finding is upending the traditional view of how birds live, how they communicate, forage, court, survive. But lately, scientists have taken a new look at bird behaviours they've previously dismissed as anomalies. ‘There is the mammal way and there is the bird way.' This is one scientist's pithy distinction between mammal brains and bird brains: two ways to make a highly intelligent mind. ![]() From the New York Times bestselling author of The Genius of Birds, a radical investigation into the bird way of being, and the recent scientific research that is dramatically shifting our understanding of birds. ![]() ![]() ![]() Unfortunately there is one of the bad guys left over from the Books of Deacon, who continuously plots the deaths of Jade and Halfax - the girl and her dragon.

In Bachelard’s enchanting spaces, “We are never real historians, but always near poets, and our emotion is perhaps nothing but an expression of a poetry that was lost.” Houses and rooms cellars and attics drawers, chests, and wardrobes nests and shells nooks and corners: No space is too vast or too small to be filled by our thoughts and our reveries. Guiding us through a stream of meditations on poetry, art, and the blooming of consciousness itself, Bachelard examines the domestic places that shape and hold our dreams and memories. This lyrical journey takes as its premise the emergence of the poetic image and finds an ideal metaphor in the intimate spaces of our homes. The rare work of irresistibly inviting philosophy, Bachelard’s seminal work brims with quiet revelations and stirring, mysterious imagery. ![]() Since its initial publication in 1958, The Poetics of Space has been a muse to philosophers, architects, writers, psychologists, critics, and readers alike.

They are books that are so smart and good and worthy that you feel that you are maximizing your time on this globe by merely being in their presence. Some books, however, have the quintessential strong first page. Some take a little time to get going, you know? It might take 50 pages before you’re fully on board, so I always give the book the benefit of the doubt. My reasoning is that not all books are good from the get-go. If I’m going to spend time with a book, I want to feel like I’m accomplishing something, not slogging through it. ![]() So it is that with my weird predilection for completion I am enormously picky when it comes to what I read. After all, most librarians understand that their time on this globe is limited and that if they want to read the greatest number of excellent books in a given year, they need to hold off on spending too much time devouring schlock and just skip to the good stuff. I am sort of alone in this habit, which you could rightly call unhealthy. I’ve a nasty habit of finishing every children’s book I start, no matter how dull or dire it might be. ![]() ![]() Cinderella, or The Little Glass Slipper, is an Italian folk tale embodying a myth-element of unjust oppression.
