What is Now? This immediate moment, what we're experiencing right now . . . it bathes us like air, or gravity.

How do we carve out time, sensation, self, and meaning from a blank, Now-less canvas?

When we think of animals that provide the greatest insights into animal cognition and behavior, primates and honeybees come to mind, or perhaps whales or octopus. What about the raccoons that plunder our rubbish at night, or the coyotes that threaten pets and livestock, or the gulls that divebomb for snacks at the beach? Outsider Animals challenges everything you thought you knew about the overlooked animals that live in proximity to humans, sharing the stories that each has to tell about adaptation and cohabitation on our increasingly crowded planet.

In ihrem neuen Hörbuch konfrontiert Claudia Kemfert uns mit den heute neu gestellten klimapolitischen Fragen und deckt auf, wo Mythen gefährliche Realitäten verschleiern.

Ein Hörbuch für alle, die sich der Illusion verweigern, dass es noch einfache Antworten gibt. Klima und Wirtschaft lassen sich nicht gegeneinander ausspielen.

En 1543, Nicolás Copérnico declaró que la Tierra giraba alrededor del Sol, revolucionando siglos de presunción escolástica. Se vislumbraba una nueva era, guiada por la observación, la tecnología y la lógica. Pero los presagios y los elixires no desaparecieron de manera instantánea de los laboratorios. Durante mucho tiempo, aún se podían encontrar amuletos y pociones entre relucientes instrumentos de metal y tomos encuadernados en cuero. La línea entre lo natural y lo sobrenatural seguía siendo porosa e indefinida.
