Most people are certain that humans are the most intelligent, sophisticated, successful species on earth. But what if we're wrong? And what if our arrogant human exceptionalism is leading us to exploit the earth at the expense of other species - and destroy our own world in the process?In The Arrogant Ape, leading primatologist Christine Webb challenges our belief in human superiority by revealing underappreciated wonders of nonhuman life - from the language of songbirds and prairie dogs, to the cultures of chimpanzees and reef fishes, to the acumen of plants and fungi. She shows how human exceptionalism has even crept into the sciences, distorting how we study and understand other species. With fresh research into the rich social, emotional and cognitive lives of animals, and compelling stories from all over the world, The Arrogant Ape demonstrates how our belief in our own importance is directly linked to some of the greatest threats against us and our environment - and offers a hopeful, inspiring way forwards.

Reviewing research evidence for nursing practice: systematic reviews highlights the key issues involved in conducting different types of systematic reviews - encompassing qualitative studies, quantitative studies and combining quantitative and qualitative studies. It enables nurses and researchers to understand the key principles involved in preparing systematic reviews and to critically appraise the reviews they read and evaluate their usefulness in developing their own practice.

Each section starts with an overview of the methodology, followed by a selection of systematic reviews carried out in specialist areas of nursing practice. Part 1 explores systematic reviews and meta-analysis of quantitative research, part 2 explores meta-synthesis and meta-study of qualitative research and part 3 addresses integrative reviews that combine both qualitative and quantitative evidence. The final part explores the use of systematic reviews in service and practice development.

Though slogans such as ''nursing must be a research-based profession'' have been around for a long time, recent initiatives such as Nursing Development Units (NDUs), quality assurance and evidence-based practice have moved nursing to the forefront amongst health professions in taking seriously the promotion of rational care based on a critical appraisal of past practices and the evaluation of new ideas and techniques. This is the first book to examine research and development in clinical nursing practice. It explains how to do it and how to apply it.

Das Selbstverstandnis der Menschheit als "e;Krone der Schopfung"e; bestimmt mageblich, wie wir uns gegenuber anderen Spezies verhalten. Doch was ist, wenn diese arrogante Haltung auf einer Ideologie beruht, die sich wissenschaftlich langst nicht mehr aufrechterhalten lasst?Die Harvard-Primatologin Christine Webb enthullt bahnbrechend, wie die Illusion menschlicher Uberlegenheit wissenschaftlich widerlegt wird und zeigt die unterschatze Komplexitat nicht-menschlichen Lebens: von der Sprache der Singvogel und Prariehunde, uber die Kultur der Schimpansen und Riff-Fische bis hin zum Scharfsinn der Pflanzen und Pilze. Webb zeigt, was die Menschheit gewinnen kann, wenn sie ihre Illusionen von Einzigartigkeit und Uberlegenheit ablegt. Dieser Perspektivwechsel lasst uns staunen und stillt eines unserer altesten und tiefsten Bedurfnisse: das Verlangen, Teil des gro eren Ganzen zu sein, das wir bewohnen.

Vaikuttava tietokirja ihmislajin asemasta suhteessa muuhun luontoon

Ihmislajia vaivaa yleinen käsitys omasta ylivertaisuudestaan muihin eläimiin nähden. Erityinen eläin osoittaa, että käsityksemme älykkyydestämme ja merkityksestämme ei ole synnynnäistä, vaan se opitaan ja omaksutaan aikuisiässä erityisesti länsimaisessa kulttuurissa.

Teos ehdottaa, että vain tästä uskomuksesta luopumalla voimme pysäyttää planeettamme tuhoamisen ja turvata elinkelpoisen ympäristön muille lajeille ja tuleville sukupolville. Christine Webb osoittaa tässä hienossa teoksessaan, että ilmastonmuutos ja pandemiat, kuten covid-19, ovat seurausta harhaluulosta, että olemme luonnon yläpuolella.

Christine Webb on tohtori ja opettaa evoluutiobiologiaa Harvardissa. Hän on erikoistunut tutkimaan kädellisten käyttäytymistä. Erityisin eläin pohjautuu hänen tutkimukseensa, joka liittyy ihmislajin ja muiden lajien ja luonnon väliseen suhteeseen.
