What if intelligent life on earth not only evolved on land, but also in the sea? Other Minds is a bold new story of how nature became aware of itself – a story that largely occurs in the ocean, where animals first appeared. Tracking the mind’s fitful development over millennia, Other Minds explores the incredible evolutionary journey of the cephalopods. What kind of intelligence do they possess? And how did the octopus, a solitary creature with little social life, become so smart? Heralded as the ‘scuba-diving philosopher’ when Other Minds first published, Peter Godfrey-Smith explores the underwater world and the concept of sentience to trace the question of inner life back to its roots. By comparing human beings with our most remarkable animal relatives, Other Minds casts crucial new light on the octopus mind – and on our own.

The Journal of Molluscan Studies is the major international journal covering the biology of molluscs. The journal features the newly developing subjects of molecular genetics, cladistic phylogenetics and ecophysiology, but also maintains coverage of ecological, behavioural and systematic malacology.

The Quaternary comprises a brief time in the Earth’s history, and apart from a few exceptions, molluscan assemblages recovered from exposures along the coast of Southwestern South America (Southern Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina) are essentially the same than those that inhabit the region today, leading to the assumption that no important change in the distribution of the faunas since Pleistocene times has occurred. However, the good taxonomic and temporal resolution reached in the last years, allowed us to detect some biogeographic changes, although traditional biogeographic units remain the same (i.e. Magellanic and Argentinean Provinces). These modifications involve mainly variations in the taxonomic composition of the assemblages and in the southern boundaries of some species distributions (extralimital species), today retracted northwards. These changes are related to southward shifts of the warm waters of the Brazilian Current, correlated with global warm peaks. This phenomenon was more intense in the Late Pleistocene (MIS 5e) and in the Holocene between ca. 6500-3500 14C yr.

Kleine, krioelende beestjes als insecten, spinnen, hagedissen en padden; deze ‘onderkruipsels’kampen van oudsher met een negatief imago. In de Middeleeuwen worden ze vooral geassocieerd met de dood en de duivel. Maar in de 16de en 17de eeuw krijgen mensen oog voor hun schoonheid. Ze duiken op in kunstwerken, worden onderwerp van geleerde verhandelingen en groeien uit tot geliefde verzamelobjecten. Kunstenaars als Albrecht Dürer, Wenzel Jamnitzer, Jan van Kessel I en Maria Sibylla Merian verdiepen zich in de diertjes en geven ze prachtig weer. Ook wetenschappers als Johannes Swammerdam en Antoni van Leeuwenhoek raken gebiologeerd. De ‘kleyne dierkens’ worden verzameld, bestudeerd, onder de microscoop gelegd en afgebeeld. Ook vandaag de dag maken de beestjes hun opwachting in het werk van beeldend kunstenaars, die andere manieren voorstellen om met insecten en de natuurlijke wereld om te gaan. Deze rijk geïllustreerde publicatie gaat over de fascinerende relatie tussen kunst en wetenschap en over de veranderende waardering voor insecten en andere onderkruipsels: van gruwelen tot verwonderen.
