Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Animals Looking Into the Future' is a compelling examination of biological foresight and the adaptive behaviors of living organisms. Written by the distinguished biologist William Allison Kepner, this work investigates the remarkable ways in which animals, ranging from microscopic life forms to more complex species, demonstrate actions that anticipate future stimuli and environmental requirements. Kepner explores the intersection of biology and psychology to understand how life forms prepare for subsequent events through evolutionary adaptation.The book challenges strictly mechanistic interpretations of life, proposing instead that organisms exhibit a form of purposive behavior. Through meticulous scientific reasoning and observation, Kepner discusses the evolution of sensory systems and the role of the nervous system in facilitating survival through anticipatory action. This study represents a significant contribution to the fields of zoology and the philosophy of biology, providing early 20th-century insights into the teleological aspects of nature and the sophisticated foundations of animal intelligence. 'Animals Looking Into the Future' remains a thought-provoking resource for readers interested in the evolution of behavior and the biological roots of consciousness.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The assessment of land use and land cover is an important activity for cont- porary land management. Human land-use practices are the most significant factors influencing environmental management at local, regional, national, and global scales. In the past, environmental policies have often reflected a reactive response to environmental perturbations with management efforts focused on short-term, local-scale problems such as pollutant abatement. Currently, environmental management philosophy is evolving toward examination of critical environmental problems over larger spatial scales and assessment of the cumulative risk resulting from multiple problem sources. Today's environmental managers, urban planners, and decision-makers are increasingly expected to examine environmental and economic problems in a larger geographic context that crosses national boundaries and scientific disciplines. Secondly, cont- porary policy-makers have also been challenged on how they view security. The conventional definition of national security has been expanded to include environmental threats resulting from resource scarcity and overpopulation and it is recognized that environmental factors may have an impact in creating conflict and world instability. Thus the working definition of security has been broadened beyond relying on militaristic aspects alone and has evolved to include the environment. In 1969, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) established the Committee on the Challenges of Modern Society (CCMS) partly in response to examine the link between environmental issues and security. CCMS was created for the purpose of addressing problems affecting the environment of the member nations and the quality of life of their citizens. …
