【推荐2】Brooklyn Children’s Museum
Founded in 1899 as the country’s first museum specifically made for children, today’s BCM is comprehensive, with a permanent collection of 30, 000 objects, including musical instruments, masks and dolls. Kids love the interactive World Brooklyn, a small cityscape lined by stores where children can pretend to be working as grown-ups.
Children’s Museum of Manhattan
Looking for interactive art that welcomes curious minds? Then head to Inside Art, the current show up at CMOM, which lets the little ones climb in and over and all around the exhibits. It’s ideas like this that make the 40, 000-square-foot so special. Learning about culture, history and science is a pride for kids aged six and under. CMOM also hosts classes-like Gross Biology for kids who are interested in insects-all designed with the latest child-development research in mind.
DiMenna Children’s History Museum
The hands-on displays at this kid-focused arm of the New York Historical Society transport children back through 350 years of US history with a special focus on NYC. Children are encouraged to climb around and interact with exhibits that highlight the lives of kids who grew up to become famous doctors, athletes and political figures. Little New Yorkers can get in on sing-alongs and crafts. Other family programs include cooking classes, games and story hours.
Staten Island Children’s Museum
Staten Island Children’s Museum nurtures creativity. It offers hands-on experiences like the Block Harbor (plenty of blocks to play with!), larger-than-life games like Connect Four and Dominoes, and even the opportunity to climb through a human-sized anthill or play firefighter at Ladder 11, so you’ll find immersive (沉浸式的)fun around every corner.

Wall Disease
Jessica Wapner The Experiment(2020)
Since the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, border walls have multiplied, notes science journalist Jessica Wapner in her global survey. In the decade after the September 2001 terrorist attacks, 47 appeared worldwide; Wapner investigates their geography and psychological effects. “Wall disease” consists of fear, isolation, a sense of immobility, financial insecurity and suspicion of “the other” on the far side.

The Brutish Museums
Dan Hicks Pluto(2020)
This timely book echoes the British Museum’s decision this year to redisplay a bust(半身像)of its founder with labels about his links to the slave trade. Dan Hicks is a curator(馆长)at the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford, UK, which, like the British Museum, holds many prized objects robbed by colonial forces in 1897 from Benin, in what is now Nigeria. Rejecting the view of Oxford colleague John Boardman that “the rape proved to be a rescue”, Hicks fiercely advocates that “brutish” museums urgently begin restoration of stolen objects.

A Manual of the Mammalia
Douglas A. Kelt & James L. Patton Univ. Chicago Press(2020)
The subtitle of this comprehensive reference book terms it “an homage” to Timothy Lawlor’s acclaimed Handbook to the Orders and Families of Living Mammals. As wildlife ecologist Douglas Kelt and mammal curator James Patton note, Lawlor’s final edition featured about 4,170 species of mammal; today’s figure is 6,495. “Do not be overwhelmed,” they advise students, “Simply be happy about the diversity of the Mammalia.”

Yellowstone Wolves
Eds Douglas W. Smith et al. Univ. Chicago Press(2020)
Twenty-five years ago, the authors reintroduced wolves to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. Here, they relate what they’ve learnt of the animals’predation, mating, play, genetics, disease and more, and their impact on other species and the landscape. Also detailed are the history, politics and implications ofrewilding. Glorious pictures bear witness to fragile gains. US President Donald Trump’s silver-anniversary gift?

【推荐1】Many of the world’s most wondrous and beautiful destinations are in danger of being destroyed by a combination of environmental and social factors. Below are some popular locations worth visiting before they disappear.
Glacier National Park
United States and Canada
Glacier National Park contains some of the most beautiful and primitive wilderness in the Rocky Mountains. There are more than 200 glacier-fed lakes and much wildlife. However, the latest warm period has caused the number of glaciers to decrease from 150 in 1850 to 26 today. If current global warming trends continue, there will be no glaciers left in the park by 2030.
Venice
Italy
With as many as 40 floods per year between March and September, Venice is slowly sinking at an estimated rate of 2.5 inches every ten years. A severe flood in December 2008 brought renewed attention to Venice’s vulnerable(脆弱的) state and approaching fate as an underwater city.
Taj Mahal
Agra, Uttar Pradesh State, India
The Taj Mahal is considered the finest example of the late style of Indian Islamic architecture. The building is visited by three to four million tourists each year. The crowds and air pollution, however, have caused irreversible(不可逆转的) damage to the building, making tourism officials consider closing the historic site to the public.
Pyramids of Giza
Giza, Egypt
The Pyramids have witnessed a heavy traffic in this sightseeing area for centuries, but the pollution and great number of visitors have caused damage to the ancient structures, which are not protected by Egyptian officials. Although camel and horseback tours are now banned from the site, the structures are still difficult to see through the crowds and vendors.
