Автор: Largo, Michael Название: The Big Bad Book of Beasts: The World`s Most Curious Creatures (Bestiaries) ISBN: 0062087452 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780062087454 Издательство: HarperCollins USA Рейтинг: Цена: 16010.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: The first bestsellers ever published were medieval bestiaries, encyclopedias that collected all of human knowledge and myths about animals. Eagles and lions lived in these pages next to imaginary beasts like griffins and sea monsters. For hundreds of years bestiaries rivaled only the bible as the most read books in the western world. Taking these original bestiaries as his inspiration, Michael Largo returns readers to that captivating wonder of animals we all had as children and looks at the beasts we created with our imaginations, as well as ones long gone. Michael Largo shares the Animal Kingdom's most fascinating secrets and reveals fact after astonishing-and often hilarious-fact about their oddest behavior. Here is a sampler of curious facts: the star-nosed mole can catch and devour its prey (insects) in an eye-blurring speed of 220 milliseconds; In 1842, circus ringmaster P.T Barnum fooled many when he displayed a "mermaid" carcass, which later proved to be monkey bones sewed together with a fish body; Peregrine falcons reach speeds during descending flights, called stoops, of over 200 mph, making them the fastest animal in the world; recently discovered in a volcanic crater in New Guinea, the Bosavi Wolly rat grows to the size of cat and weighs four pounds; to keep his wife company while he was away, President Andrew Jackson bought an African Grey Parrot, named Poll. The bird outlived them both and was removed from Jackson's funeral service for cussing obscenities in both English and Spanish; if humans had hands proportional to those of bats, each of our fingers would be longer than our legs. (Bats are mammals whose wings are actually webbed hands.); and woodpeckers bang their head against a tree 10,000 times each day, on average.

Описание: How do we find the life that's right for each of us?More and more of us are feeling overwhelmed by the everyday struggle to lead the lives to which we aspire. Children are placed under unbearable pressure to achieve; adults fight a constant battle to balance family life with work and economic demands; old people suffer from social isolation and a lack of emotional security. People of every age are feeling increasingly at odds with the world, and less able to live a life that corresponds to their individual needs and talents.
At the root of this problem, argues internationally renowned child development expert Remo Largo, is a mistaken idea of what makes us human. A distillation of forty years of research and medical experience, The Right Life sets out a new theory of human thriving. Tracing our development as individuals from the beginnings of evolution to the twenty-first century, he sets out his own theory, the 'Fit Principle', which proposes that every human strives to live in harmony with their fellow humans and their environment.
Rather than a ceaseless quest for self-improvement and growth, he argues, our collective goals should be individual self-acceptance, as we embrace the unique matrix of skills, needs and limitations that makes each of us who we are. Not only, Largo suggests, can a true understanding of human thriving help people find their way back to their individuality; it can help us to reshape society and economy in order to live as fully as possible.
