Ecology, like all literary narrative, has the potential for turnabout, surprise, lessons learned, and tragedy. The stories in Threads from the Web of Life and The Shark and the Jellyfish describe protagonists, their competitors, and the habitats that provide the setting for their interaction--habitats that have become surprisingly complex with the passage of evolutionary time. One niche moves across a world of flowers that reaches its earliest peak bloom in the low valleys and then peaks later among the slopes of the foothills--a rolling habitat. Another hop-scotches across the ocean floor, compelling its occupants to migrate from the fallen body of one dead whale to the next. Yet another appears in the aftermath of typhoons, requiring its inhabitants to search the tropical coastline for the latest storm landfall. These tales are filled with no less intrigue than other literary works, but they transpire out of the sight of most readers. Once known only to ecologists, in Threads from the Web of Life and The Shark and the Jellyfish, available for the first time in a single deluxe paperback, these stories become accessible to everyone with an interest in natural history.Binding Type: Paperback

Materials are very light weight, not sure if it will hold up
This jacket is very light weight, made of very thin nylon type materials. Concerned of its abrasion resistance. Only inside of sleeves are fleece lined. It is very comfortable and fits well to size. Don’t have enough cold weather yet to test, so we’ll see. Not sure this is a great value for the money.

A Very Nice Lightweight, but Warm Jacket
I was surprised at how light this jacket was when I took it out of the nice box it came in. Despite its light weight, it is still a very warm and cozy jacket.
The lining of the jacket is a soft fleece, which is very comfortable. It also allows for easy layering with sweaters and shirts. The lining is very warm and cozy; it's moisture-wicking, as well, which will keep you nice and dry.
The outer shell of the jacket is perfect to keep that cold wind out! It also helps with the sun, with a UV protection rating of 30+. It seems very durable, but it is not bulky at all. In fact, the whole jacket stretches a bit for even more comfort and a good fit.
Whatever climate you live in, this jacket will provide you warmth and comfort without bulking you up like the Hulk. it's a great little jacket to keep in the car or at the office.

Great Vest
this golf vest is amazing. It’s very well-made. It fits well, I’m a double X and I’m 62 and a slice of pizza from 230 pounds. I just love it and plan to buy more. I believe it’s gonna wear very well, but I’ll let you all know in a month or two after I’ve worn it a couple times and washed it a couple times.
