A wide-ranging meditation on belonging and citizenship through the story of two squirrel species in Britain. Squirrel Nation is a history of Britain's two species of squirrel over the past two hundred years: the much-loved, though rare, red squirrel and the less-desirable, though more populous, grey squirrel. A common resident of British gardens and parks, the grey squirrel was introduced from North America in the late nineteenth century and remains something of a foreign interloper. By examining this species' rapid spread across Britain, Peter Coates explores timely issues of belonging, nationalism, and citizenship in Britain today. Ultimately, though people are swift to draw distinctions between British squirrels and squirrels in Britain, Squirrel Nation shows that Britain's two squirrel species have much more in common than at first appears.

Eddie was a husky-shepherd mix hobo dog living on the streets when I met him. His introduction to "pet life" was full of common situations that for him, weren't common or even familiar. At all. This story chronicles his journey into our home that presented restrictions from the freedom of living on the streets. Would he like it? Would he stay? While there are certainly many wonderful books in the genre of memoir and pets, Eddie is unique in that weaves my own personal struggles as a woman in a troubled marriage with Eddie's own struggles to conform to a life in which his own personality must be tailored to fit in. Though caretaking and struggling relationships are both topics common to many women, few books address these topics in parallel with their dog. There are compelling similarities between my journey and Eddie's, as each chapter is sprinkled with ah-ha moments and life lessons.

However, scientific knowledge of that biodiversity is still in its infancy and the region remains a frontier for biological discovery. The butterfly and diurnal moth assemblages of the area exemplify these points.
New Yorker Ruby Shaw arrives in a hillside town in Arizona with a brand-new name, a duffel bag on her shoulder, and her daughter, Allie, at her side. Before arriving, Ruby witnesses a murder that lands her in the witness protection program. That decision means she's gone from being a successful artist to being a nobody in a postage-stamp-sized town called Paradise-a name that doesn't fit the former ghost town. Even though their new digs are a little shabby, and there may be ghosts haunting the town, they are optimistic about their new lives, that is, until a neighbor turns up dead.Having just arrived in town, living next door to the victim, and without an alibi, the community members are suspicious of Ruby. A local deputy befriends her, but the deputy still points to her as the culprit each time they find a new clue. If matters weren't bad enough, Allie is having trouble fitting in at her new school, and Ruby can't seem to hold down a job.As they settle in, they meet the quirky inhabitants of Paradise: Bette-the chatterbox café owner, Flora-Allie's eccentric babysitter, and Derek-who runs local history tours, which he jazzes up with ghost stories of questionable veracity.Ruby's life improves when she meets a handsome cook at the local café who is passionate about succulents and cacti, and may feel equally passionate about her. Even though Ruby and Allie want to stay in Paradise, a US marshal has other ideas, as he threatens to move them to a new town after Ruby gets mixed up in the murder investigation. Ruby must find the killer before she and Allie lose their new home or even worse-their lives.
Since research on meiobenthos was last compiled in a textbook (2008/2009), the number of theoretical and applied studies has been growing rapidly. Supported by new methods and digital evaluation, meiobenthology has developed into a wide field, with more and more researchers studying cross-disciplinary aspects. New perspectives were summarized in a booklet (2019) to draw attention to promising research directions. The present book, written by leading experts, is a compilation of new thinking, data, methods and approaches in many relevant fields of recent meiobenthos research. The topics addressed range from bacteria and biofilms to globally changing processes, from polar regions to the deep-sea and from freshwater ecosystems to the ocean. So, this book is not simply another meiobenthos textbook - it is an attempt to identify new horizons in meiobenthos research, driven by the vision of advancing knowledge and understanding of benthic ecosystems.
