Tides and Tailwinds The life story of Lorne Christensen begins with the history of his Danish immigrant great-grandfather Captain James Christensen, his grandfather Captain Andy Christensen, each noted mariners, and his dad, BC Provincial Police Constable Bill Christensen. Lorne recounts his childhood and his escapades vacationing with his grandmother at the remote logging community of Port Renfrew in the 1940s and 1950s. Joining the Air Force at 17 he trained as an aircraft mechanic, and attracted to the lure of the skies, went on to obtain his private pilot's license in 1960. Unsure of where his future would lead him, and grounded in his family's seafaring history, he ventured into a maritime life by becoming a seaman on the naval auxiliary vessels at the Naval Dockyard in Esquimalt BC. His interest in flying won out, and by 1963 his first opportunity came, as a dock boy with a float plane company in Campbell River. Becoming a commercial pilot he gained much valuable experience with local flying firms on British Columbia's rugged and weather-variable coast. Moving on, he found one of his most fascinating experiences as pilot for the Honourable Phil Gaglardi, BC's Minister of Highways. From there, his flying career took him to the prairies, the Yukon and High Arctic, the east coast, Quebec and Ontario. He flew from the North Pole to the Caribbean, from Alaska to Greenland and all places in between. Aircraft flown included DC3, DC4, C46, FH227, L188 (Electras), Boeing 737s and numerous others. Holding a pilot's license for 50 years, Lorne's last flight on the B737 took place at the age of 73 in 2010.

With an ever-growing majority of the world's human population living in city spaces, the relationship between cities and nature will be one of the key environmental issues of the 21st Century. This book brings together a diverse set of authors to explore the various aspects of this relationship both theoretically and empirically. Rather than considering cities as wholly separate from nature, a running theme throughout the book is that cities, and city dwellers, should be characterized as intrinsic in the creation of specifically urban-generated ‘socio-natures’.

Migration, broadly defined as directional movement to take advantage of spatially distributed resources, is a dramatic behaviour and an important component of many life histories that can contribute to the fundamental structuring of ecosystems. In recent years, our understanding of migration has advanced radically with respect to both new data and conceptual understanding. It is now almost twenty years since publication of the first edition, and an authoritative and up-to-date sequel that provides a taxonomically comprehensive overview of the latest research is therefore timely. The emphasis throughout this advanced textbook is on the definition and description of migratory behaviour, its ecological outcomes for individuals, populations, and communities, and how these outcomes lead to natural selection acting on the behaviour to cause its evolution. It takes a truly integrative approach, showing how comparisons across a diversity of organisms and biological disciplines can illuminate migratory life cycles, their evolution, and the relation of migration to other movements. Migration: The Biology of Life on the Move focuses on migration as a behavioural phenomenon with important ecological consequences for organisms as diverse as aphids, butterflies, birds and whales. It is suitable for senior undergraduate and graduate level students taking courses in behaviour, spatial ecology, 'movement ecology', and conservation. It will also be of interest and use to a broader audience of professional ecologists and behaviourists seeking an authoritative overview of this rapidly expanding field.
