The Living Dock
Jack Rudloe
  ISBN-10: 0820012068     ISBN-13:9780820012063
Size 6 x 9 inches, 264 pages, b&w and color illustrations by Walter Inglis Anderson, index. © 2003
Sometimes, a dock isn't just a dock, it's a habitat. In the tiny fishing community of Panacea, the author's floating dock nurtures an abundance of marine life. Crabs, worms, mollusks and algae make their home there, feeding fish and other creatures higher up the food chain. These also feed author Jack Rudloe's business, Gulf Specimen Marine Lab, which supplies specimens to research and teaching institutions: marine fauna from his dock, fo nearby mud flats and beaches, and netted offshore from his little shrimp boat Penaeus. This entertaining and educational book looks at the life histories of some of these creatures and recounts Rudloe's experiences in collecting them, in the process examining man's relationship with the natural world.

Size 6 x 9 inches, 264 pages, illustrated, index. © 2003
Could ancient peoples who worshipped the sea turtle have understood complex magnetic principles that modern scientists are only now putting together? This captivating eco-travelogue blends science, mythology, and conservation ethics. It describes the author's journeys in Central America and Malaysia, where he probed the hypothesis that geomagnetic forces guide sea turtle migration and investigated the ancient Turtle Mother legend that influenced the conservation ethic of primitive cultures.
