Adventures among Ants: A Global Safari with a Cast of Trillions
by Mark W. MoffettIntrepid international explorer, biologist, and photographer Mark W. Moffett, "the Indiana Jones of entomology," takes us around the globe on a strange and colorful journey in search of the hidden world of ants. In tales from Nigeria, Indonesia, the Amazon, Australia, California, and elsewhere, Moffett recounts his entomological exploits and provides fascinating details on how ants live and how they dominate their ecosystems through strikingly human behaviors, yet at a different scale and a faster tempo. Moffett's spectacular close-up photographs shrink us down to size, so that we can observe ants in familiar roles; warriors, builders, big-game hunters, and slave owners. We find them creating marketplaces and assembly lines and dealing with issues we think of as uniquely human--including hygiene, recycling, and warfare. Adventures among Ants introduces some of the world's most awe-inspiring species and offers a startling new perspective on the limits of our own perception. * Ants are world-class road builders, handling traffic problems on thoroughfares that dwarf our highway systems in their complexity * Ants with the largest societies often deploy complicated military tactics * Some ants have evolved from hunter-gatherers into farmers, domesticating other insects and growing crops for food

Adventures in American Literature (Athena Edition)
by HodginsA journal written five hundred years ago reports: "The admiral, at ten o'clock in the night, being on the stern-castle, saw a light. ... it was like a small wax candle, which was raised and lowered." <P><P>The night was that of Thursday, October 11--12, 1492. The "stern-castle" was the raised back deck of the ship Santa Maria, which had left Spain on August 2. The admiral was Christopher Columbus, and the light--which he probably only imagined seeing--turned out to be an island. The native inhabitants, he learned when he landed the next day, called the island Guanahaní, but he renamed it San Salvador. These native inhabitants, the Arawak people, received the Spaniards favorably at first. Eventually, a dispute seems to have broken out; hardly surprising considering the two peoples shared no common language, customs, and religion. Apparently the Arawaks convinced the Spaniards to go to other islands with promises of untold treasures to be found. Six years later, Columbus began to realize that he had reached a place whose existence he had never suspected. "I believe that this is a very great continent," he wrote on his third voyage to America, "which until today has been unknown."
