British and Irish Butterflies

An Island Perspective

by Roger L H Dennis, Peter B Hardy

Islands are special places; they can be havens for unique plants and animals and refuges for wildlife. This book investigates the biogeography of butterfly species over the British islands, particularly the factors that influence their presence on the islands and that have made each island's butterfly fauna distinctive. The book contains a full log of records of species on the islands and much supporting information. The first three chapters set the scene, illustrating the basics of island biogeography theory, their changing circumstances during the current Holocene interglacial, and studies of natural history of British butterflies that mark the islands as the most intensively studied region for wildlife in the world. The book advances by increasing resolution downscale from a European continental perspective, through patterns and changes on the British mainland, a comparison of the two dominant islands of Britain and Ireland, to a close inspection of the dynamics of species on the multitude of offshore islands. Detailed investigations include contrasts in species' richness on the islands and then of the incidences of each species. Case studies highlight the continual turnover of species on islands. Attention is then given to evolutionary changes since the time that glaciers enveloped Europe. A powerful message is conveyed for the maintenance of butterfly species on the smaller British islands now experiencing population losses at a rate unprecedented since the spread of the last ice sheets: the incontrovertible importance of maintaining populations of species on nearby mainland sources for islands as pools for future migrants. This book is enhanced with supporting material. To access the Online Supplementary Appendices below, please visit: http://www.cabi.org/openresources/95061.

Ecotourism in the Less Developed World

by David B Weaver

Ecotourism is the result of increasing interest amongst consumers in developed countries in exploring the natural world as an alternative to more conventional holidays, along with a desire to reduce the environmental and cultural impact of their activities. It is, therefore, a relatively new sector of the tourism industry. This book is unique in defining, describing and analysing ecotourism in the less developed countries and its effects, in all parts of the world. The first three chapters set the broader industry context and geographical scope of the book. This is followed by country case studies on Costa Rica, Kenya, Nepal and Thailand and a chapter on the Caribbean and South Pacific. In the final chapter, the common themes and patterns which emerge are discussed with regard to strategies for future developments. This book is essential reading for lecturers, advanced students and researchers in tourism and for those actively involved in ecotourism in less developed countries. It will also be valuable to other tourism industry staff, geographers, development economists and government and regional policy makers.

Parasites of Cattle and Sheep

A Practical Guide to their Biology and Control

by Andrew B Forbes

Understanding parasite biology and impact is essential when giving advice on parasite control in farm animals. In the first review devoted to parasites of domestic cattle and sheep alone, this book provides in-depth, focused advice which can be tailored to individual farms. It considers the impact of parasites, both as individual species and as co-infections, as well as epidemiological information, monitoring, and diagnostic procedures. Supported throughout by diagrams and photos to aid diagnosis, it also reviews the basis for control measures such as the responsible use of parasiticides, adaptive animal husbandry and other management practices. This book: Focuses on common parasites of domestic sheep and cattle; Places emphasis on understanding host responses and epidemiology so that the impact and seasonality of parasitism can be incorporated into advice and decision making; Highlights the fundamental importance of the individual farm and farmer in assessing endemic parasitism and tailoring control options accordingly; Provides a comprehensive reference listing, including important historical citations, to underpin the content. An important resource for students, veterinarians and researchers of farm animal health, this book maintains a focus on ruminant parasitology in order to deliver evidence-based advice and also context for the application of basic research.

Ein Apartment auf dem Uranus

Chroniken eines Übergangs

by Paul B. Preciado, Stefan Lorenzer

Es war Karl Heinrich Ulrichs, der 1864 der »Liebe, die ihren Namen nicht zu nennen wagt«, erstmals einen Namen gab: Inspiriert vom griechischen Gott Uranos, bezeichnete er gleichgeschlechtliches Begehren als Uranismus. Mit dem Begriff forderte er als einer der Ersten überhaupt öffentlich das Recht ein, anders zu lieben. Auf Ulrichs Spuren träumt Paul Preciado von einem Apartment auf dem Uranus, einem Ort fern der irdischen Kategorisierungen und Festlegungen, einem Ort der sexuellen Dissidenz. Preciados in diesem Band versammelte Texte verdichten sich zu der Erzählung eines Übergangs: einer durch die Einnahme von Testosteron angestoßenen Transformation des eigenen Körpers und der eigenen Identität – von Beatriz zu Paul. Zugleich dokumentieren und analysieren sie die im Wandel begriffenen politischen Verhältnisse. Von den Protesten im krisengebeutelten Athen über die verzweifelte Situation der Flüchtlinge auf den griechischen Inseln bis hin zur Unabhängigkeitsbewegung in Katalonien begleitet Preciado Kämpfe um Würde und Autonomie.
