The Last Great Hikes is a narrative journey across the world’s most storied footpaths, told with the immediacy of journals, letters, field notes, and eyewitness accounts. Oliver Greyson walks the listener from the medieval stones of the Camino de Santiago to the wind-carved dunes of Arabia’s Empty Quarter, from the green labyrinth of the Amazon to the thin air of the Himalayas. Along the Kokoda Track he follows soldiers and the Papuan stretcher bearers who carried them through mud and fever. In New Zealand’s Fiordland he traces the early guides who opened the Milford Track to wonder seekers.

In Nature’s Arena, the first volume of The Rules of Coexistence, we embark on a journey to unravel one of nature's most fundamental forces. This book moves beyond the simple idea of 'survival of the fittest' to reveal a world of sophisticated strategies and profound consequences. You will discover the theoretical arena where life is possible—the fundamental niche—and witness how the brutal realities of the living world compress it into the realized niche. We will explore the mechanisms of battle, from the frantic scramble for resources to the direct contest of dominance and territoriality.

All of life is profoundly shaped by the daily, monthly, and yearly cycles of our planet, and all creatures have internal timekeeping systems that rely on cues from the surrounding environment. With modern technology, we are changing our environments—and by proxy, the ecosystems around us—to override these innate rhythms of life. But at what cost? Life in Sync reveals how Earth’s rotations shape our biology, what human sleep cycles looked like before the advent of artificial light, and why technology can’t free us from the constraints of our circadian clocks.

The Clean Pet Food Revolution lifts the lid on the current pet food industry; its claims of what constitutes a “natural” diet for pets, its shocking record on animal welfare, and its devastating effect on the environment and climate change. The book explodes myths about “grain-free” diets, protein intake, and what our pets “want.” It details the many exciting scientific developments in alternative proteins that promise not only to completely change what we feed our cats and dogs but to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, end farmed-animal slaughter, and make our pets healthier.

With their towering, cinnamon-colored trunks and dusky green canopies, ponderosa pine has long been a charismatic icon of the American West. Yet a quiet unraveling has begun: in the past decade, in a vast area from Santa Fe to the Sierras, more than two hundred million ponderosa have died. While some trees will survive in cooler places, scientists estimate that by mid-century less than five percent of the ponderosa in the American Southwest may remain. As the very character of this vast region shifts, what will be left behind? And how can we come to terms with such profound loss?

Donald Worster looks back over 200,000 years of Homo sapiens to show how human nature, especially the drive for food and sex, has responded to environmental conditions throughout history. Examining how this process led from foraging to the agrarian revolution and then to a capitalist way of life, Worster brings us face to face with a third transformation of human society that is beginning to take shape in China: an ecological civilization.

Despite their cultural influence, the grand narrative of the dinosaur story is rarely told. Most of us have heard of Stegosaurus and Tyrannosaurus, but these two dinosaurs lived more than eighty million years apart—a greater span of time than the entire post-T. rex history of the planet. Furthermore, we often know even less about the environments these animals lived in. The Shortest History of the Dinosaurs tells the full story, a 230-million-year epic of small beginnings, spectacular golden periods, and eventual global domination.
