Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne. Illustrated with 116 color and black and white Illustrations by Alphonse de Neuville, Édouard Riou and engravings by Hildibrand. This is a classic science fiction novel by French writer Jules Verne published in 1870. It tells the story of Captain Nemo and his submarine Nautilus as seen from the perspective of Professor Pierre Aronnax. The title refers to the distance traveled while under the sea and not to a depth, as 20,000 leagues is over six times the diameter of Earth. As the story begins, a mysterious sea monster, theorized by some to be a giant narwhal, is sighted by ships of several nations; an ocean liner is also damaged by the creature. The United States government finally assembles an expedition in New York City to track down and destroy the menace. Professor Pierre Aronnax, a noted French marine biologist and narrator of the story. Canadian master harpoonist Ned Land and Aronnax's faithful assistant Conseil are also brought on board. [more]

Et blikk inn i levende veseners verden viser innretninger som i høyeste grad er målrettet: spermhvalen, et pattedyr, er utrustet slik at den kan dykke 3000 m. dypt uten å dø av dykkersyken når den kommer opp igjen, og flaggspetten hogger med kraftige slag mot et tre uten å få hjernerystelse.I de fleste tilfeller er livet avhengig av organenes (f.eks. hjerte, lever, nyrer) fulle funksjonsdyktighet. Uferdige organer i utvikling, eller halvferdige, er verdiløse. Den som her følger darwinismens tankebaner, må vite: evolusjonen har ikke noe målperspektiv i retning av et organ som seinere skal fungere.Mange trekkfugler har til rådighet en autopilot som fører dem treffsikkert til bestemmelsesstedet, uavhengig av vær, dag eller natt. Lofuglen, f. eks, flyr fra Alaska til Hawaii for å overvintre. Energibehovet på 70 gram fett for den 4500 km. lange flyturen er presist kalkulert, og det er sørget for en reserve på 6,8 gram for eventuell motvind.... [more]
