Make A Hyperbook Zoo
A teacher's resource for personalising knowledge about animals at any level.
A hyperbook comprises a knowledge structure, a set of informational fragments, links between the fragments and the knowledge structure, and a user interface specification. This specification is used to generate the actual reading interface which is a hypertext whose nodes and links are derived from the knowledge and fragment structures. A knowledge structure provides a means to interconnect different hyperbooks in a meaningful consistent way, so as to create digital libraries produced by learners..

16 'Lesser Worlds' by Nester Pain
One does not have to be a naturalist to be enthralled by the ".`lesser worlds" of which Nesta Pain writes so brilliantly. The stories ories which she tells here of the life-cycles, activities and achievements of Ants, Spiders, Beetles, Solitary Wasps and Bees are so astonishing in themselves that the general reader will be as fascinated as the ordinary radio-listener is by her famous B.B. C. 'features'.
Nesta Pain reveals worlds in miniature—worlds so strange that, were it not for the corroboration of famous naturalists, one might hesitate to believe the facts. So closely does she observe the inhabitants of these lesser worlds, that we seem to accompany her through forests of gianttrass, between boulders of sand and gravel, and into the subterranean passages and chambers that are formed with such amazing skill in every foot of earth. It is difficult indeed not to attribute something more than blind instinct to the extra-ordina activities of these creatures—by turns comic and grotesque, triguing and sometimes horrible—but Nesta Pain is fully aware of the dangers of "anthropomorphism" and cites numerous fascinating experiments that have been carried out to find traces of "intelligence" or "feeling". That they are merely creatures of instinct, responding blindly to stimuli which they can neither understand nor control is, perhaps, just as well.

17 Eat Your Soldiers
Black soldier fly larvae contains more zinc and iron than lean meat and its calcium content is higher than milk. Less than half a hectare of black soldier fly larvae can produce more protein than cattle grazing on around 1200 hectares, or 52 hectares of soybeans. New research has identified the barriers for introducing fly protein into Western human diets as a sustainable, healthy alternative to both meat and plant proteins.
