   Living on Earth: Life, Consciousness and the Making of the Natural World by Peter Godfrey-Smith

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/519941 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/519941) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Living on Earth: Life, Consciousness and the Making of the Natural World Author: Peter Godfrey-Smith Narrator: Peter Godfrey-Smith Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 59 minutes Release date: August 15, 2024 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: The eagerly anticipated conclusion to Peter Godfrey-Smith’s three-part exploration of the origins of intelligence on Earth, which began with the bestselling Other Minds in 2018 and continued with Metazoa in 2020. The eagerly anticipated conclusion to Peter Godfrey-Smith’s three-part exploration of the origins of intelligence on Earth, which began with the bestselling Other Minds in 2018 and continued with Metazoa in 2020. Peter Godfrey-Smith, the scuba-diving philosopher, examined the evolution of sentience in Other Minds. In Metazoa he asked how that consciousness shaped and was shaped by animal bodies. Now, in Living on Earth, he takes that line of questioning a step further, asking, how has life shaped and been shaped by our planet? He visits the largest living stromatolite fields, examples of how cyanobacteria began belching oxygen into the atmosphere as they converted carbon dioxide and water into living matter using the sun's light. The extraordinary increase in oxygen in the atmosphere resulted in an explosion in the diversity of life. And so began a riotous tangle of coevolution between plants and animals, as each changed the environment around them allowing others to utilise these new ecosystems and thus new species to evolve. From cyanobacteria, through algae on to ferns or trees or grasses, and from protists , through invertebrates and fish through the dinosaurs and on to birds and mammals – our planet has seen an explosion of life forms, all reacting to their environment and all creating new environments that allow other life to evolve. In our own evolutionary line, an initially unremarkable mammal changed in new ways, evolving to come out of the trees to inhabit new savannas and then onto inhabit the whole planet. One of the most adaptable species ever found on Earth, and arguably the species causing the most change, humans are still part of this 3.8 billion year history of life forms changing the world around them. In Living on Earth, Godfrey-Smith takes us on a grand tour of the history of life on earth. He visits Rwandan gorillas and Australian bowerbirds, returns to coral reefs and octopus dens, considers the impact of language and writing, and weighs the responsibilities our unique powers bring with them, as they relate to factory farming, habitat preservation, climate change, and the use of animals in experiments. Living on Earth shows that Humans belong to the infinitely complex system that is the Earth, and our minds are products of that system, but we are also an acting force within it. We are creatures of Earth, but we hold Earth's future in our hands. It is a responsibility that we must all understand and accept.

   Long Lived Plants and Animals by Martin K Ettington

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/536865 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/536865) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Long Lived Plants and Animals Author: Martin K Ettington Narrator: Martin K. Ettington Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 41 minutes Release date: March 5, 2024 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: I’ve written a number of books on longevity and immortality. But I’ve only had some partial chapters on long lived plants and animals. This is an important subject because all of this life is based on the same DNA code we have in our own bodies. If this life can live for hundreds or thousands of years then this says that it is possible for humanity to live that long also. Here I’ve researched and included lots of specimens of animal and plant life which represent the extremes of longevity for widely varying life. This book covers the plant, animal kingdoms and includes lifeforms which are essentially immortal. Also, it is just fascinating to see who the longest lived mammals are, the oldest fish, and what about trees and bushes which have been around for thousands of years.

   Windswept: Life, Nature and Deep Time in the Scottish Highlands by Annie Worsley

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/544013 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/544013) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Windswept: Life, Nature and Deep Time in the Scottish Highlands Author: Annie Worsley Narrator: Carolyn Bonnyman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 52 minutes Release date: August 3, 2023 Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: ‘Windswept is a wonderful work, prose painted in bold, bright strokes like a Scottish Colourist's canvas’ ROBERT MACFARLANE ‘An instant classic of British nature-writing’ SUNDAY TELEGRAPH A few years ago, Annie Worsley traded a busy life in academia to take on a small-holding or croft on the west coast of Scotland. It is a land ruled by great elemental forces – light, wind and water – that hold sway over how land forms, where the sea sits and what grows. Windswept explores what it means to live in this rugged, awe-inspiring place of unquenchable spirit and wild weather. Walk with Annie as she lays quartz stones in the river to reflect the moonlight and attract salmon, as she watches otters play tag across the beach, as she is awoken by the feral bellowing of stags. Travel back in time to the epic story of how Scotland’s valleys were carved by glaciers, rivers scythed paths through mountains, how the earliest people found a way of life in the Highlands – and how she then found a home there millennia later. With stunning imagery and lyrical prose, Windswept evokes a place where nature reigns supreme and humans must learn to adapt. It is her paean to a beloved place, one richer with colour, sound and life than perhaps anywhere else in the UK.
