Book Description
The result of five years of meticulous research and stunning photography A Visual Celebration of Giant Pandas is a delightful volume that follows in the footsteps of the shy and enigmatic giant panda, and captures both adults and cubs on camera in close-up situations. Beautifully photographed, in rarely seen settings, the authors explain what makes the panda such a lovable icon, and why the public cannot have enough of this symbol of quiet hope for survival in a fast-changing planet. It also provides readers with fascinating and detailed information about Giant Panda's and the other species that share its habitat, such as the red panda and snow leopard. The issue of 'pandaplomacy' is also addressed, with the arrival of pandas in Singapore in 2012 and their likely arrival in Malaysia in 2013. Finally the book assesses the chances of survival for the giant panda, and the efforts being made to preserve its habitat.

Book Description
"For anyone uncertain in social situations, Dr. Chris Beverly is the answer. His ability to view social interactions as a strategic game provides a great guide to help the rest of us navigate. The book is not "psychobabble", but rather a straight-forward approach to negotiating the difficulties that can arise in group dynamics." Kristen M. Wolfe, MBA Are you a social wolf or kangaroo? Social Chess takes an in-depth look at group interactions that occur in businesses, families, and friendships, and, using clever animal classifications, helps you discover who you really are by examining how you naturally deal with conflict. Dr. Christopher Beverly, a social scientist and psychology professor, spent three years reflecting on his life experiences both in group settings and relationships. This autobiographical study reviews: (1) The fact that relationships are best understood in a group context. (2) The five pieces on the "group chessboard". (3) The seven laws of group dynamics. This revolutionary behavioral guide will enrich your knowledge of social cultures, whether you want to better understand relationships in general or want to adapt more effectively to future social situations. "Chris Beverly's extraordinary gift for reading people and situations is reflected in this book. He expresses the complex dynamics of relationships and groups in a common sense format". Dr. Debbie Dodd, Author and Organization Consultant

Book Description
Panda Love is a collection of incredible images of these gentle giants. Ami Vitale's stunning photographs, taken on location in China, document the efforts to breed pandas and release them back into the wild. Ami was given unprecedented access to the pandas and her photos give an amazing insight into the bears' lives in both the sanctuaries and their natural habitat. Fluffy panda cubs tumble out of baskets and play hide-and-seek with their carers, while the adult pandas curiously explore the forest and climb trees. The giant panda is everyone's favorite bamboo-munching bear. China may be on its way to successfully saving its most famous ambassador, and Panda Love lovingly documents the process of putting the wild back into an icon.

Pandas and People
Author: Jianguo LiuPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0191008591
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
Understanding the complex relationships between humans and the natural world is essential for achieving environmental sustainability and improving human well-being, yet many studies are unable to reveal complex interactions and hidden trends. This is the first book to synthesize the findings and approaches of long-term integrated research in a model coupled human and natural system, and to illustrate their applications to regional, national, and global scales. It features a classic long-term interdisciplinary research project in the Wolong Nature Reserve of China, which contains one of the largest wild populations of the world-famous endangered giant pandas. Bringing together a team of contributors from both the natural and social sciences, this book explores how a long-term interdisciplinary and model system approach is essential to uncover the common patterns and mechanisms of coupled systems, to develop ideas and methods for studying and managing other coupled systems, and ultimately to contribute to the development of theories about coupled systems for sustainability. Pandas and People will be essential reading for scholars interested in the interface of the natural and social sciences, including ecologists, conservation biologists, environmental scientists, sustainability scientists, wildlife biologists, forest scientists, sociologists, anthropologists, economists, and political scientists. It will also be a valuable reference for policy makers, natural resource managers, and graduate students.
