Taking us beyond the confines of our own experiences, The Color of North traverses the kingdom of life to uncover the myriad ways that proteins shape us and all organisms on the planet. Inside every cell, a tight-knit community of millions of proteins skillfully contorts into unique shapes to give fireflies their ghostly glow, enable the octopus to see predators with its skin, and make humans fall in love.

Susanne Schötz is hard at work on breaking the cat code. She is a professor at Lund University in Sweden, where a long-standing research program is proving that cats do actually use vocal communication-with each other and with their human caretakers. Understanding the vocal strategies used in human-cat communication will have profound implications for how we communicate with our pets and has the potential to improve the relationship between animals and humans within several fields, including animal therapy, veterinary medicine, and animal sheltering.

نشجع الأطفال على ممارسة الرياضة كي نغرس فيهم فضائل مثل العمل الجماعي والمثابرة والانضباط، لكن في كثير من الأحيان تثير الرياضة مشكلات أخلاقية شائكة، وهو ما يتضح لنا من الفضائح المتواصلة التي تنقلها لنا عناوين الأخبار. فهل يهدد الجانب الفاسد من الرياضة قدرتها على غرس الفضائل الأخلاقية في حياتنا؟ وهل هذه الفضائل مؤكَّدة من الأساس؟ يقدم روبرت إل. سايمون في هذا الكتاب استقصاءً شاملاً وعميقاً لموضوعات واسعة النطاق تتراوح من أخلاقيات المنافسة، إلى تعاطي العقاقير واستخدام التقنيات المُعزِّزة للأداء، وصولاً إلى المساواة بين الجنسين. إنه كتاب مهمّ ينفذ إلى عمق أسئلة أخلاقيات الرياضة المعقدة، ويستكشف الصلة المنطقيـة بين الفعل الذي يقوم به الرياضيُّ في اللعبة والقواعد الموضوعة المنظمة لتلك اللعبة، ثم يربط الإجابات بالشواغل اليومية حيال القيم والعدالة واللعب النظيف.

في هذه المقدِّمة الموجزة، يستعرض مايك كرونِن تاريخ الرياضة من أصولها المرتبطة بالألعاب التنافسيَّة والطقوس الدينيَّـة إلى موقعها اليوم بمثابة ظاهرةٍ عالميَّة. ويتناول مختلف الرياضات من الألعاب الجماعيَّة كالرغبي والكريكيت وكرة القدم إلى الألعاب الفرديَّة مثل الغولف والتنس والتزلُّج، موضِّحاً كيف ظهرَت هذه الألعاب لأوَّل مرَّة وجذبت اهتمام الأناس العاديِّين، وكيف تطوَّرت الرياضة في حياتنا اليوميَّة. وبينما يستكشف كرونِن العلاقة بين الرياضة والطبقة والنوع الاجتماعي والتجارة والهويَّة والأخلاق، فإنَّه يُبرز بعض القضايا المركزيَّة التي تشهدها الرياضة اليوم، بما في ذلك الهواية والاحتراف، والأجور المرتفعة للاعبين المحترفين، والغش واستعمال المنشِّطات، ومعايير اللعب النظيف.
