Bird Sense: What It’s Like to Be a Bird

Birkhead, Tim

Bloomsbury 2012

What is it like to be a swift, flying at over one hundred kilometres an hour? Or a kiwi, plodding flightlessly among the humid undergrowth in the pitch dark of a New Zealand night? Bird Sense addresses questions like these and many more, by describing the senses of birds that enable them to interpret their environment and to interact with each other. Bird Sense is based on a conviction that we have consistently underestimated what goes on in a bird’s head. Birkhead identifies ways we can explore new horizons in bird behaviour.

Heredity and Hope: The Case for Genetic Screening

Cowan, Ruth Schwartz

Harvard University 2009

The secrets locked in our genes are being revealed, and we find ourselves both enthused and frightened about what that portends.

Yet, as Ruth Schwartz Cowan reveals, modern genetic screening has been practiced since 1960, benefiting millions of women and children all over the world. Cowan argues that we can improve the quality of our own lives and the lives of our children by using the modern science and technology of genetic screening responsibly.
