Adam Hart Book order

Exploring the disconnect between our evolutionary biology and contemporary life, the book delves into how adaptations that once ensured survival now contribute to modern issues like stress, obesity, and addiction. Through an interdisciplinary approach, the author examines the implications of our genetic inheritance on current societal challenges, revealing how instincts meant for survival have become detrimental. However, the narrative also offers hope by uncovering evolutionarily informed treatments that could reshape our understanding of health and well-being.

Raising the Dead dives into the expansive, extraordinary body of work found in Romero's archive, going beyond his iconic zombie movies into a deep and varied trove of work that never made it to the big screen. Based on years of archival research, the book moves between unfilmed scripts and familiar classics, showing the remarkable scope and range of Romero's interests and the full extent of his genius. Raising the Dead is a testament to an extraordinarily productive and inventive artist who never let the restrictions of the film industry limit his imagination.

The predators that can hunt, kill and eat us occupy a unique place in the human psyche – and for good reason.Whether it's lions in Africa, tigers in India or sharks in the world’s oceans, we are fascinated by – and often terrified of – predators. Animals that can hunt, kill, and eat us occupy a unique place in the human psyche, and for good reason. Predation forms a big part of our evolutionary history, but in the modern world there are many people who live alongside animals that can, and sometimes do, make them prey.In The Deadly Balance, biologist Adam Hart explores the complex relationships we have with predators, and investigates what happens when humans become prey. From big cats to army ants, via snakes, bears, wolves, crocodiles, piranhas and more, Hart busts some myths and explores the science behind such encounters. Despite their fearsome and often wildly exaggerated reputations, these animals have far more to fear from us than we do from them. By probing the latest conservation science, Hart explores how we might both conserve the world's predators and live safely alongside them.

Forged by natural selection and honed by evolution, humans are perfectly adapted machines. . . for a world that no longer exists.
