A penetrating examination of how we live and how to live better

A narration of a summer motorcycle trip undertaken by a father and his son, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance becomes a personal and philosophical odyssey into fundamental questions on how to live. The narrator's relationship with his son leads to a powerful self-reckoning; the craft of motorcycle maintenance leads to an austerely beautiful process for reconciling science, religion, and humanism. Resonant with the confusions of existence, this classic is a touching and transcendent book of life.

This new edition contains an interview with Pirsig and letters and documents detailing how this extraordinary book came to be.

The most self righteous/pretentious thing I've read Was recommended this book, and was so disappointed. I hated every moment of it, wishing for it to end. But I still finished it.The best part is the narrative on the road with his son, the rest of the book, and 'philosophy' is rubbish. Pseudo intellectuals will love this book. Hipsters trying to be relevant will relish in it's self righteous nonsense.I didn't care for anything he was trying to 'discover', nor did I think it mattered. Really was just one giant wank fest for the writer.I haven't been this disappointed in a book in a long time.Read this. Then read it again decades later. In high school I would have told you this is my favorite book. I just re-read it 2 decades later. And I realize that I grasped about 20% of it at the time. Maybe. Something about the meandering philosophical flow captured my imagination at the time. But reading it now, as a father, I grasp the concepts underneath. I don't readily admit this but I wept at the end. Then I read the afterward and totally lost it. Beautiful, courageous work.

Olive, Again (Oprah's Book Club) Pdf

ISBN: B07QYNQQMY
Title: Olive, Again (Oprah's Book Club) Pdf A Novel

New York Times Best Seller
Oprah's Book Club Pick

Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout continues the life of her beloved Olive Kitteridge, a character who has captured the imaginations of millions.

"Strout managed to make me love this strange woman I'd never met, who I knew nothing about. What a terrific writer she is." (Zadie Smith, The Guardian)

"Just as wonderful as the original...Olive, Again poignantly reminds us that empathy, a requirement for love, helps make life 'not unhappy.'" (NPR)

Named one of the best books of the year by:
Time Vogue  The Washington Post  Esquire Good Housekeeping The New York Public Library The Dallas Morning News  Kirkus Reviews Publishers Weekly BookPage

Prickly, wry, resistant to change yet ruthlessly honest and deeply empathetic, Olive Kitteridge is "a compelling life force" (San Francisco Chronicle). The New Yorker has said that Elizabeth Strout "animates the ordinary with an astonishing force", and she has never done so more clearly than in this book, where the iconic Olive struggles to understand not only herself and her own life but the lives of those around her in the town of Crosby, Maine. Whether with a teenager coming to terms with the loss of her father, a young woman about to give birth during a hilariously inopportune moment, a nurse who confesses a secret high school crush, or a lawyer who struggles with an inheritance she does not want to accept, the unforgettable Olive will continue to startle us, to move us, and to inspire us - in Strout's words - "to bear the burden of the mystery with as much grace as we can."

Praise for Olive, Again:

"Olive is a brilliant creation not only because of her eternal cantankerousness but because she's as brutally candid with herself about her shortcomings as she is with others. Her honesty makes people strangely willing to confide in her, and the raw power of Ms. Strout's writing comes from these unvarnished exchanges, in which characters reveal themselves in all of their sadness and badness and confusion.... The great, terrible mess of living is spilled out across the pages of this moving book. Ms. Strout may not have any answers for it, but she isn't afraid of it either." (The Wall Street Journal) 

Enjoy Olive Again! First of all, you do not have to have read Pulitzer winning, “Olive Kitterage”, or seen the Emmy winning HBO series starring Frances McDormand, to thoroughly enjoy Elizabeth Strout’s follow up, “Olive, Again”, though I predict that you will want to.The success of the book and HBO series rests on Strout’s perfectly imperfect character, Olive. She is entirely unique and readers have a variety of reactions to her, mostly contradictory because she is. She is hard-nosed somewhat stereo-typically a cold north easterner, judgmental and blunt. She is also compassionate, sarcastically witty, and loyal. I’ve always thought that it would be difficult to be friends with Olive, but worth it.“Olive, Again”, like its predecessor (and like the two “Lucy Barton” novels Strout has penned in the interim), is a collection of inter-related stories about the denizens of Crosby, Maine, particularly in relation to Olive Kitterage. We meet some familiar characters, but also a few new ones. There is a disturbing story of a young girl who cleans houses and a strange relationship that follows. I was especially touched by the continuation of a story from the first book that relates a poignant conversation between the sister of a murderer and her parent’s lawyer as she returns to Crosby and her memories of growing up there. Evidence of Olive growing as an individual is in a piece where she visits a former pupil who has cancer. I loved these conversations so much because Olive reveals a lot about her marriages. Plus, it’s quite funny! Happily, one section brings us up to date on the Burgess boys - another of Strout's novels!I didn’t think of this eleven years ago when I first “met” Olive, but this re-acquaintance has made wonder if Olive is on the “autism spectrum”. Is she ignoring social cues, or is she missing them? Is her bluntness and thoughtless disregard for “niceties” because she doesn’t understand the need for them? Several times she does show empathy and concern for others’ feelings, but these episodes seem to come as a shock to even her. In any case, Strout beautifully “grows” Olive in this wonderful new novel. I knew I needed more Olive and I am thankful that Strout did, too!It’s a fast read even though I tried to slow down and savor it! Strout is such a wonderful writer, Frances McDormand is such a wonderful actress, let’s hope another HBO series is in the works!Not so great, save your money... Loved the first book but wasted my money on this one. Just a lot of drivel that went nowhere. I also didn’t like her digs against Trump. No need to work that into a storyline but it seems to be a trend from authors in Maine...SHE CREATES A UNIVERSE OF FEELING AND HUMANITY In still another absolutely superb collection of fiction, Strout (author of the Pulitzer Prize winning Olive Kittredge, year) demonstrates again that she knows a simple truth. That people are interesting. Not just famous people. People, period. All of us. Any one of us. Our lives aren’t linear, no matter whether they set out for them to be. They don’t go in straight lines. They twist and turn, diverge from the path and loop back, or head off in a wholly new direction where god knows what will happen. And the past comes back to bite us in the present in the way people see us and relate to us and in our regrets and second guessings about past behavior and deeds. Even if we say we don’t need others, we are tied to people around us in multiform ways.Witness the sleepy little town of Crosby, Maine, where Olive Kittredge, now in her seventies and widowed but for forty years before that a teacher of junior high math –she still encounters past students in the stores, restaurants and streets of Crosby. She meets a man named Jack, a retired Harvard professor, arrogant, even snobbish in his manner. He’d been shoved out of Harvard after he was charged with sexual harassment over an affair with a young colleague in his department. He’s a widower now too, riven with guilt for having cheated on his wife and shame over his public humiliation. In his prime, he was a young god but those days are far behind now: he’s overweight now, has a puffy round stomach that shames him, but then, so do his memories. Somehow, one time only, Olive and he wind up in bed together, not sex, but a relationship. And then she’d left and when he tried to get in touch with her, she didn’t respond. So to the first story, “Arrested”, in this set of separate but interconnected stories that collectively weave together into a novel about that strange but wonderful old woman, Olive Kittredge. But not just about her. Rather, they’re about her universe, the odd collection of people in and around Crosby who give meaning (and sometimes lack of meaning) to her life, as does she to theirs. It’s a wondrous way to craft a novel, “us/them”-=centered as much as “me.”The story! Jack’s having a bad day. He called to apologize to his daughter Cassie for the way he’d treated her for years: she’s lesbian and he’d never accepted that. The call didn’t go badly. It just didn’t go well. So he stops at the Regency Hotel bar to hoist a few and when he pulls away from the bar he’s pulled over by the police for driving too fast and having an overdue inspection certificate. He complicates matters by his attitude toward the police but finally he’s allowed to drive off –shamed again. But for what? The present events or his past offenses? His past drives his present. He sends an email to an old beau of his deceased wife to let him know she had died and when the man responds, finds that his wife had been having her own affair while he’d been having his. He has no reason to think that Olive Kittredge would want to get in touch with him again but he decides to try again, this time by letter.It’s three stories later before Olive’s front and forward in a story, but she pops up in different ways in between. In “Labor,” she goes to a baby shower and ends up delivering a baby in the back seat of her car. (It’s messy.) That leads to a conversation with Jack again and the start of what will be her second great relationship, ending in eight years of marriage with him. She’s peripheral in “Cleaning,” which is about a young, poor woman and her awful life cleaning for stuck up prigs. But she’s there.“Motherless Child” is one of the pivots of this extraordinary glimpses into people’s inner lives in this on the surface idyllic little Maine town. It’s about a visit: Olive’s son Christopher, his wife, Anne, and their four children, two older and two very young, visiting from New York City where they live conveniently far away from Christopher’s mother. The visit is a disaster and when Olive tells her son that she is going to get married again, to Jack, a Vesuvius of a disaster. Then Anne snaps at her husband, tells him to man up, and Olive has an epiphany: Christopher has married his mother because Olive behaved toward him the same way when he was young. She was not a patient mom. And now her son is locked in the same dynamic with his wife.I’m not going to go through all the stories in this collection. There are nine more! But all are about the same thing, though in different ways: the past always has hooks in us and we don’t really know what or who we are, we just move along, trying our best but buffeted by our feelings and the pressure of events. The end result is often not pretty or tidy. It just is.By the end, Olive is eighty-three or eighty-four, which is my age or a year older. Jack’s long dead and her first husband, Henry, looms larger in her memories now. She almost died from a heart attack and can no longer drive after dark. She living in an assisted living facility where her relations with the other residents are, let’s say, not always easy. She’s finally contemplating death. She doesn’t want it but she knows it happens.There is this marvelous passage one page before the end of this book: "[I]t was almost over, after all, her life. It swelled behind her like a sardine fishing net, all sorts of useless seaweed and broken bits of shells and the tiny, shining fish –all those hundreds of students she had taught, the girls and boys in high school she had passed in the corridor when she was a high school girl herself (many- most—would be dead by now), the billion streaks of emotion she’d had as she looked at sunrises, sunsets, the different hands of waitresses who had placed before her cups of coffee—All of it gone, or about to go."That is glorious writing. Olive contemplates her life and goes back to writing. This is what she writes: “I do not have a clue who I have been. Truthfully, I do not understand a thing.”But who does?

The pros for me are that it's illustrated and full of interesting information such as what kind of wildlife and flora you can find in LA's most famous parks and green spaces - I had no idea that there was this much wildlife in LA! The book has photos and little stories about the creatures and green things in and around LA and I've been leaving it for visitors and coworkers. It's a great gift for any LA dweller and a good reminder that it's not all freeways and concrete here.

The Tea Rose Pdf

ISBN: 0312378025
Title: The Tea Rose Pdf A Novel (The Tea Rose Series)

“It's so much fun ...this is London in the 1880s, the London of Charles Dickens and Edward Rutherfurd, a teeming, messy place full of business, dirt and poverty. Once in New York, we trip from the tenements of the Lower East Side to elegant dining at Delmonico's, with hardly a paragraph to catch our breath...the atmosphere of both starring cities is created in satisfying detail. One can walk the streets and listen to the people chat in the company of Jennifer Donnelly, who has done her historical homework...she delivers.” ―Washington Post“Time seems to stand still when The Tea Rose comes to life.” ―The Anniston Star“When you start reading Jennifer Donnelly's The Tea Rose give yourself plenty of time because this is a most seductive novel. You will travel from the rough, often savage, back streets of London to the glossy sophistication of New York's Fifth Avenue. You'll be charmed by the novel's heroine, Fiona Finnegan-her intelligence, her courage, her great heart. Despite her suffering-a lost love, a tragic family-there are moments you will want to cheer. It's the kind of novel where the writing is so fluid you feel the author simply loves telling her story. This is a splendid heartwarming novel of pain, struggle, decency, triumph-and just what we need in these times.” ―Frank McCourt“I loved this vividly atmospheric and wonderfully rambunctious yarn-brilliantly told, great fun to read.” ―Simon Winchester, author of The Professor and the Madman“Bold, brisk, and beguiling. The Tea Rose is splendid brew of a book.” ―Samuel H. G. Twining, LVO, OBE, director of Twinings Tea“The Tea Rose is the kind of book that calls for a rainy day, a cozy chair, and a good, steaming cup of tea. It's strong and satisfying, with a taste that lingers in the memory.” ―Paula Cohen, author of Gramercy Park“In the tradition of Barbara Taylor Bradford...steeped in romance and authentic period detail, this exquisite melodrama will appeal to fans of epic historical fiction.” ―Booklist“The novel's lively plotting, big cast of warmly drawn characters and long-deferred romantic denouement make this a ripping yarn.” ―Publishers Weekly“Readers will relish this rags-to-riches romance.” ―Library Journal“A hard book to put down until the final page.” ―Chattanooga Free Press“Donnelly's tale pulls the reader into its emotional depths and refuses to let go. Fiona Finnegan is a remarkable heroine.” ―Romantic Times Book Club, Top PickFollowing in the footsteps of such beloved epics as "A Woman of Substance," "The Thornbirds," and "The Shell Seekers" comes this towering story of murder and revenge, of love lost and won again, and of one determined woman's quest to survive and triumph... The Tea RoseEast London, 1888-a city apart. A place of shadow and light where thieves, whores, and dreamers mingle, where children play in the cobbled streets by day and a killer stalks at night, where bright hopes meet the darkest truths. Here, by the whispering waters of the Thames, Fiona Finnegan, a worker in a tea factory, hopes to own a shop one day, together with her lifelong love, Joe Bristow, a costermonger's son. With nothing but their faith in each other to spur them on, Fiona and Joe struggle, save, and sacrifice to achieve their dreams. But Fiona's life is shattered when the actions of a dark and brutal man take from her nearly everything-and everyone-she holds dear. Fearing her own death, she is forced to flee London for New York. There, her indomitable spirit propels her rise from a modest West Side shop-front to the top of Manhattan's tea trade. But Fiona's old ghosts do not rest quietly, and to silence them, she must venture back to the London of her childhood, where a deadly confrontation with her past becomes the key to her future.."Full of warmth and rich period detail, "The Tea Rose" begs for a comfy, overstuffed chair and plenty of time to keep turning those pages." "-Dallas Morning News" "Steeped in melodrama, revenge, and a maddeningly star-crossed romance...a fine yarn." -"People"

The Tea Rose is a towering old-fashioned story, imbued with a modern sensibility, of a family's destruction, of murder and revenge, of love lost and won again, and of one determined woman's quest to survive and triumph.

East London, 1888-a city apart. A place of shadow and light where thieves, whores, and dreamers mingle, where children play in the cobbled streets by day and a killer stalks at night, where bright hopes meet the darkest truths.

Here, by the whispering waters of the Thames, a bright and defiant young woman dares to dream of a life beyond tumbledown wharves, gaslit alleys, and the grim and crumbling dwellings of the poor.

Fiona Finnegan, a worker in a tea factory, hopes to own a shop one day, together with her lifelong love, Joe Bristow, a costermonger's son. With nothing but their faith in each other to spur them on, Fiona and Joe struggle, save, and sacrifice to achieve their dreams.

But Fiona's dreams are shattered when the actions of a dark and brutal man take from her nearly everything-and everyone-she holds dear. Fearing her own death at the dark man's hands, she is forced to flee London for New York. There, her indomitable spirit-and the ghosts of her past-propel her rise from a modest west side shopfront to the top of Manhattan's tea trade.

Authentic and moving, Jennifer Donnelly's The Tea Rose is an unforgettable novel.

A fantastic first in this trilogy, and a new author for me to love! For more reviews, please visit http://fortheloveoftheread.blogspot.comDonnelly is an author that I've never read before, but she will easily become a new favorite of mine. This book was beautifully done. I loved how the author stuck to the accents each character had, adjusting her writing to illustrate those. This is an author who writes delicious sentences and descriptions, and this book is one I enjoyed falling into.I also loved the story, although it was often so heartbreaking that I couldn't help but feel sorry for Fiona. She lived a tough life. Growing up poor and eventually left to her own devices because of tragedy after tragedy, Fiona still manages to make something of herself and to reach her dreams. The author used Jack the Ripper as a way to move the plot forward and took creative liberties to tie him into her story. I loved this part of the book. Jack intrigues me, and as a villain he is most definitely a scary one. While the story was high on drama, I never felt like any of it was too wildly unbelievable. Each tragedy and success that Fiona experienced seemed plausible, although I often wished for a little more happiness for her. In the end, the story does work out, although there are many hardships on the way.The characters in this novel were all well done. My favorite was probably Nick, a man Fiona encounters on her way to New York who becomes a rock for her throughout the beginning of her new life there. Nick is often funny and cares about Fiona to a degree that almost no one else in the book does. He supports her in all endeavors that she undertakes, and who doesn't want a best friend like that? Michael, Fiona's uncle, was an interesting character, often funny because of his developing paternal feelings toward Fiona. Although many of Fiona's family is lost early in the book, those characters are also given a certain livelihood that sets them apart, a testament to the skills of development on Donnelly's part.Overall, I definitely recommend this book. It's sizable but quite worth it. There's enough story to keep the reader interested, and it's so beautifully done that it's a world readers won't want to leave.Best book I've read in a long time This is not a new book and I don't know how I missed it until now, but The Tea Rose by Jennifer Donnelly is the best book I've read in a long time. This rather epic story begins with Fiona Finnegan and her family, chronicling their struggles to survive in London's Lower East Side. Fiona and her childhood friend, Joe, dream about the day when they can open a shop together and they scrimp and save every penny of their meager salaries toward that end. Fate intervenes and what follows takes the reader from Whitechapel, London, the backdrop of Jack the Ripper, to New York City's Golden Age. Ms. Donnelly portrays these settings vividly and in detail, so that the reader gets a true sense of the time period and surroundings. She also writes with great emotion, so the reader can truly feel Fiona and Joe's joys and despairs. I highly recommend this book to lovers of historical fiction!

Leading film historian Jeanine Basinger reveals, with her trademark wit and zest, the whole story of the Hollywood musical--in the most telling, most incisive, most detailed, most gorgeously illustrated book of her long and remarkable career.
     From Fred Astaire, whom she adores, to La La Land, which she deplores, Basinger examines a dazzling array of stars, strategies, talents, and innovations in the history of musical cinema. Whether analyzing a classic Gene Kelly routine, relishing a Nelson-Jeanette operetta, or touting a dynamic hip hop number (in the underrated Idlewild), she is a canny and charismatic guide to the many ways that song and dance have been seen--and heard--on film.
     With extensive portraits of everyone from Al Jolson, the Jazz Singer; to Doris Day, whose iconic sunniness has overshadowed her dramatic talents; from Deanna Durbin, that lovable teen-star of the '30s and '40s; to Shirley T. and Judy G.; from Bing to Frank to Elvis; from Ann Miller to Ann-Margret; from Disney to Chicago . . . focusing on many beloved, iconic films (Top Hat; Singin' in the Rain; Meet Me in St. Louis; The Sound of Music) as well as unduly obscure gems (Eddie Cantor's Whoopee!; Murder at the Vanities; Sun Valley Serenade; One from the Heart), this book is astute, informative, and pure pleasure to read.

Musicals For those of you enthralled by musicals and their history, this book is for you. It is filled with information, history and photographs from then and now.A treat for anyone who loves film or musicals In a book both scholarly and accessible to the general reader, Jeanine Basinger writes with wit and insight about the history and development of the movie musical and the artistic, business and cultural influences that shaped it.With her vast lore of film knowledge she puts the films and the artists who created them in an illuminating new light while correcting some wide-spread false assumptions about film history along the way. A treat for anyone who loves film or musicals.

Praise for The Art of Invisibility"How would it feel to find out that your neighbor and friend has secretly observed you in your own home for years? The place that should be most private to you was not, and the intruder's devices themselves weren't something you'd ever have thought to look for. This kind of behavior is the opposite of giving normal people freedom and security, of valuing and respecting them as humans--and it's happening more and more. The answer to peeping eyes and cyber theft is to move society toward greater cyber-security and it all starts with essential education about being private and invisible in our daily lives. Kevin's book is the must read in this new world."―Steve Wozniak, cofounder, Apple Inc."The FBI's most-wanted hacker."―Wired"Who better than Mitnick -- internationally wanted hacker turned Fortune 500 security consultant -- to teach you how to keep your data safe from spear phishing, computer worms, and Fancy Bears?"―Esquire"Offers a sobering reminder of how our raw data -- from email, cars, home Wi-Fi networks and so on -- makes us vulnerable."―Amy Webb, New York Times Book Review"Mitnick's new book aims to help everyone -- from the everyday internet users to the hardcore paranoid -- do a better job of keeping personal information private."―Laura Hautala, CNETPraise for The Art of Deception"The most famous computer hacker in the world. A tour de force."―Publishers Weekly"The world's most famous computer hacker and cybercult hero...has written a blueprint for system security based on his own experiences. Required reading for IT professionals, this book is highly recommended for public, academic, and corporate libraries."―Library Journal Praise for Ghost in the Wires"Intriguing, insightful and extremely educational into the mind of one who truly mastered the art of social engineering with the use of a computer and modern day technologies. I strongly believe that one can learn a great deal about protecting themselves once they understand how another one perpetrates the crime."―Frank W. Abagnale, author of Catch Me if You Can Kevin Mitnick has been the subject of countless profiles published and broadcast throughout the world. Mitnick's leading penetration-testing team is highly respected and sought after for its security services by the world's top corporations and governments.

Real-world advice on how to be invisible online from "the FBI's most-wanted hacker" (Wired)

Your every step online is being tracked and stored, and your identity easily stolen. Big companies and big governments want to know and exploit what you do, and privacy is a luxury few can afford or understand.

In this explosive yet practical book, computer-security expert Kevin Mitnick uses true-life stories to show exactly what is happening without your knowledge, and teaches you "the art of invisibility": online and everyday tactics to protect you and your family, using easy step-by-step instructions. Reading this book, you will learn everything from password protection and smart Wi-Fi usage to advanced techniques designed to maximize your anonymity.

Invisibility isn't just for superheroes--privacy is a power you deserve and need in the age of Big Brother and Big Data.

Pretty good hack in itself: a fairly comprehensive resource AND a good read! ****** Starts out with basic security info concepts and builds on that nicely. In two places you are referred to later chapters where the tool for spoofing the MAC address is never actually identified - so Google it! The book identifies and describes a lot of useful tools and techniques. I originally gave this a 4 - I had hoped to learn more from it. But I've just re-read it and pushed my rating from a 4 up to a 5 and wish I could give it a 6! I've been in security for quite a while and still learned a thing or two. When's the last time you enjoyed reading resource material? Great coverage of a great topic.A Must Read for Anyone Living in our Digital Age This is a very informative book. While I'm not looking to go underground or off- grid, I will be making changes to protect my privacy online. I was outraged by the decision made by our country's legislators to allow Internet providers to disclose and sell the online browsing histories of their customers, which could affect prospective jobs and insurance. For example, if you or your child have a health issue or disability, and you search the Internet for information, a prospective employer who has access to this browsing history could interpret this to mean you will take more time off from work, or be more of a liability with insurance. This is just one type of example the book brings up, among numerous other situations I would never have even thought about. Great book, and thank-you, Kevin Mitnick!Don't read this review! Seriously, stop reading now!!! I'm a 20 year IT sys admin and this book was awesome. Much of this stuff I knew already but Kevin puts it together like nobody else can; moreover, he puts it together so anyone can understand.It's not just a book about how to become invisible to today's technology grid, it's the Bible of how you are being screwed and used by what you probably don't understand about your favorite gadget, app or appliance.I don't care if you don't know the difference between Outlook or AOL, you need to get this book and finish it. It might very well be the most important book you read in the next five years.

Gifts of the Crow Pdf

ISBN: 1439198748
Title: Gifts of the Crow Pdf How Perception, Emotion, and Thought Allow Smart Birds to Behave Like Humans
Author: John Marzluff
Published Date: 2013-02-05
Page: 320

“Researchers writing about comparative human and nonhuman cognition always make brief, obligatory reference to the underlying neurological and hormonal systems, but Marzluff and Angell actually provide us with the details. In lucid, logical, and articulate prose, they carefully explain all the interrelated mechanisms involved in the fascinating behavior patterns of their corvid subjects and how these mechanisms relate to those of humans. Their book is indeed a gift, not only to those of us eager to learn about corvid behavior but also but also to those who wish to understand the bases for these actions.” Author: Irene M. Pepperberg, author of Alex & Me: How a Scientist and a Parrot Uncovered a Hidden World of Animal Intelligence--and Formed a Deep Bond in the Process“John Marzluff and Tony Angell's amazing, true stories of crows who rage, grieve, give gifts, work together, and even design and use tools would be enough to make this book a great read. But these maverick scientists go a step further, and actually show how these birds' big brains, though different from our own, achieve many of the same feats. Gifts of the Crow is a gift to all of us who have argued for years that humans don't possess the only minds in the universe. This is one of the most exciting books I've read in a long time.” Author: Sy Montgomery, author of Birdology"In this important work, you’ll find stunning examples of crow emotionality and intelligence -- a triumphant vindication for those who have known all along that animals are capable of much more than they’re generally given credit for. . Crows dream as part of their learning process, for instance, and profile other individuals’ behavior and act accordingly. In many ways, their intelligence is equal to that of the great apes. Fascinating." Author: Stacey O'Brien, author of Wesley the Owl"Full of clear and detailed accounts of research...remarkable." Author: NYTimes"Angell’s illustrations of birds are exquisitely detailed... the book will instill in many readers a sense of wonder and curiosity at what these birds can do. An insightful look at some of our surprisingly capable feathered friends." Author: Kirkus"Amazing" Author: Seattle Times“Delightful… a series of intriguing stories and stunning illustrations that together reveal the sophisticated cognitive abilities of crows and their relation­ship with humans." Author: Nature"With its abundance of funny, awe-inspiring, and poignant stories, Gifts of the Crow portrays creatures who are nothing short of amazing. A testament to years of painstaking research and careful observation, this fully illustrated, riveting work is a thrilling look at one of nature's most wondrous creatures." Author: Guardian.co.uk"A great read, this book is a tribute to the little-known and underappreciated minds of the birds of the amazing corvid family. Serious and at times hilarious, it pulled me in with its telling anecdotes and scientific context. Most importantly, it acknowledges and explores the many complex similarities between crows' mental traits and our own." Author: Bernd Heinrich, author of Mind of the Raven“Gifts of the Crow is a compelling book. Filled with wonderful stories of regular people’s interactions with ravens, crows, and jays, it also cites engrossing scientific studies, reports on the field work of biologists, and offers detailed explanations of how the brain of a corvid actually works. I was fascinated.” Author: Suzie Gilbert, author of Flyaway: How A Wild Bird Rehabber Sought Adventure and Found Her Wings John Marzluff, Ph.D., is Professor of Wildlife Science at the University of Washington. The author of four books and over one hundred scientific papers on various aspects of bird behavior, he is the recipient of the A. Brazier Howell, Board of Directors, and H.R. Painton awards from the Cooper Ornithological Society.Tony Angell has authored and/or illustrated a dozen award-winning books related to natural history.

Stan Coren’s groundbreaking The Intelligence of Dogs meets Bernd Heinrich’s classic Mind of the Raven in this astonishing, beautifully illustrated look at the uncanny intelligence and emotions of crows.

Playful, social, and passionate, crows have brains that are huge for their body size, which allows them to think, plan, and reconsider their actions. They also exhibit an avian kind of eloquence, mate for life, and associate with relatives and neighbors for years. And to people who care for them and feed them, they often give oddly touching gifts in return.

The ongoing connection between humans and crows—a cultural coevolution—has shaped both species for millions of years. Scientist John Marzluff teams up with artist-naturalist Tony Angell to tell amazing stories of these brilliant birds. With Marzluff’s extraordinary original research on the intelligence and startling abilities of corvids—crows, ravens, and jays—Angell’s gorgeous line drawings, and a lively joint narrative, the authors offer an in-depth look at these complex creatures and the traits and behaviors we share, including language, delinquency, frolic, passion, wrath, risk taking, and awareness. Crows gather around their dead, warn of impending doom, recognize people, commit murder of other crows, lure animals to their death, swill coffee and drink beer, design and use tools—including cars as nutcrackers—and windsurf and sled to play.

With its abundance of funny, awe-inspiring, and poignant stories, Gifts of the Crow portrays creatures who are nothing short of amazing.

Think birds are dummies? Then you haven't read THIS I got this book for the Kindle, and wanted to read it myself. However, my spouse, who was not so much a bird person, took a liking to it, and loaded it to his Kindle first.For the past two weeks as he's read this book, I get daily reports of how interesting the book is, how amazing these birds are, and what great anecdotes the author includes. The crows really do bring "gifts" to people they like. And they remember people as well.The book goes into a bit of the brain structure and in depth about genetically as well. When I read it, I may skip over the more technical and scientific aspects of the work. But I am happy to report that my observations about bird behavior, their habits and likes and fears, dovetails with what this author presents based on science and experiments, not just a layman's observations. I'm very pleased to report that my spouse has dropped the expression "bird brain" to indicate someone without cognitive powers. Now in our household there are two bird lovers.When I have a chance to read it, I'll update it from my non-scientific point of view. But, for all the good conversation it has already stimulated, it is worth reading.Great for Knowledge not Facts If you want to know more about corvids or you are a bird lover this is the perfect book for you. Just be warned that that the information in the book are full of scientific hypotheses and examples of corvid behavior rather than it is a hard scientific read. To make for this the author gives a healthy amount of scientific papers, he has personally read, in the back of the book to support his claims.I believe he does this because he wants you to enjoy reading this book and make you excited about the wonderful things corvids can do besides become a nusence in your life. He defintiently acheives these. And if you want to bite on something harder and read more in depth about corvids he prepares that in the back of the book. Great read!i love crows i learned so much from this book,not just about crows but about all birds.if you don't like crows, you'll at least end up respecting them after reading this. and you'll be far more informed about the natural world.on the other hand, if you don't like going outside and don't care for nature and prefer casinos and malls and TV, then you're hopeless and you should just jump off a cliff.a bit dense in its analysis/explanation of the neurobiology of bird/crow brains, but you can follow it, i think. i have an unfair advantage inasmuch as i have a solid medical/anatomy/physiology background.
