Discovering the Okapi


The captivating history of the okapi and its symbolic role in science, culture, and conservation. In Discovering the Okapi, Simon Pooley offers a fascinating portrait of the okapi—an elusive short-necked giraffid with zebra stripes, surviving in the rainforests of central Africa's Congo basin—and unpacks the complicated layers of Western science and Indigenous knowledge that shaped the world's understanding of this unique creature. Pooley tells the story of the okapi's "discovery" in 1900 by British naturalist Sir Harry Johnston, as well as the overlooked contributions of the Indigenous African people whose expertise made this sighting and subsequent hunt for specimens possible. The book traces how colonial politics and scientific racism shaped early accounts of the animal's study and examines the enduring biases that continue to influence conservation efforts today. The okapi became a symbol of scientific curiosity, colonial power, and conservation challenges, revealing complex intersections among biodiversity, cultural heritage, and environmental stewardship. Its precarious existence in captivity and the wild exposes how Western and indigenous approaches to conservation can—and must—find common ground for its survival.

Jak vycvičit psa s pomocí lásky a vědy


Konečně kniha o výcviku psů, která dává smysl jak pro psy, tak i pro jejich majitele – a využívá metody pozitivního posilování založené na vědeckých poznatcích. Po generace slavní trenéři tvrdili, že majitelé psů musí nad svými mazlíčky „dominovat“, a kritizovali ty, kteří se své psy odvážili hýčkat láskou. Kniha Jak vycvičit psa s pomocí lásky a vědy představuje moderní, vědecky podložený přístup k výcviku psů, který ukazuje, že chování milovaných mazlíčků lze měnit i bez nátlaku a násilí. Novinářka a trenérka psů Annie Grossman rozebírá, co pozitivní posilování skutečně znamená, a ukazuje, že „dobrý výcvik psů“ může být i klíčem k lepšímu pochopení nás samotných. Grossman v knize nabízí praktické cvičení a tipy, jak efektivně trénovat pomocí metod odměňování, které za poslední desetiletí zdokonalila ve své manhattanské škole School For The Dogs. Ať už jste si právě přivedli domů nového psa, nebo chcete naučit starého psa novým kouskům, kniha vám pomůže pochopit, jak dosáhnout požadovaného chování. Do tohoto živého průvodce je vpletena i stoletá historie pozitivního posilování – od Pavlovových psů a Skinnerových krys až po dnešní psy, kteří se učí pomocí nejmodernějších zařízení. Použitím snadno pochopitelných metod popsaných v této knize budete schopni naučit svého psa žít ve vašem světě sebevědomě, pohodlně a šťastně.
