Nieuw boek. 2011 -  1e druk.

Het begon allemaal met wat donkere strepen en vlekken op de flanken van aquariumvisjes - barbelen - en met de vraag waar die toe dienden. Er waren zo veel soorten barbelen, en allemaal weer anders getekend en gekleurd, en ieder met hun eigen bijzondere paaigedrag. Een ideaal object om vergelijkend biologisch onderzoek op te verrichten. Maar waarom al die variatie?

Dit boek brengt het boeiende verslag van een veeljarig wetenschappelijk onderzoeksproject, een verhaal dat zich afspeelt in tropische landschappen en waarbij de betekenissen van al die kleuren en strepen en gedragsverschillen stap voor stap werden opgehelderd, hetzij doornauwkeurige observatie in het aquarium, hetzij door veldonderzoek.

Barbelenverhalen is tegelijk een prettig en onderhoudend leesboek. De schrijvers zijn wetenschappers, maar ze vertellen even enthousiast over de landschappen van Sri Lanka, India en Maleisie en over de culturen van hun inwoners. Ze schetsen ook rake portretten van de vele projectmedewerkers, waaronder legendarische biologen als C.J. van der Klaauw en J.J.A. van Iersel.

Raak geschilderd en ook cultuurhistorisch van belang
Dr. A.G. Menon, Universiteit Leiden, hoogleraar aan de AMRITA Universiteit, Coimbatore, India

Van begin tot eind een onderhoudend boek, waarin buitenstaanders al lezende binnengevoerd worden in de wondere wereld van gedrag, kleur en natuurlijk milieu, via kleurrijk beschreven scenes uit het vissenleven en via wat een wetenschapper daarin opmerkt. Het wetenschappelijk proces wordt er van dichtbij en begrijpelijk in getoond
Dr. Hans Feuth, arts-internist en Drs. Enja Feuth-de Bruijn, biologe

Barbelenverhalen is toegankelijk voor leek en liefhebber en interessant voor wetenschapper en specialist. Het is aantrekkelijk voor aquaristen en reizigers, studenten en middelbare scholieren; voor wie van tropische landen houdt en voor wie gefascineerd is door kleurige, levendige en gevarieerd getekende aquariumvissen thuis.

Dr. Koenraad Kortmulder heeft ruim 40 jaar ethologie gedoceerd aan de Leidse Universiteit. Hij schreef eerder het boek Play and Evolution (Utrecht, 1998) en wetenschappelijke artikelen over gedrag van barbelen, theoretische ethologie, incestvermijding en tederheid. Samen met Yuri Robbers publiceerde hij The Agonic and Hedonic Styles of Social Behaviour (Mellen Press, 2005).

Drs. Yuri Robbers is als etholoog thuis in sociale systemen, tijdstructuur van gedrag en theoretische ethologie. Momenteel is hij leraar aan het Stedelijk Gymnasium in Leiden en gastmedewerker bij de afdeling Neurofysiologie van het Leids Universitair Medisch Centrum LUMC

Fancy enough for a wedding, easy enough for a backyard party
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
I picked up this 300 Pack Premium Heavy Duty Gold Plastic Silverware set for a recent gathering, and honestly it worked out better than I expected. When you’re hosting a larger group, the last thing you want to worry about is running out of utensils or washing a mountain of dishes afterward, and this set definitely helped with that. First off, the 300-piece set is really convenient. You get 100 forks, 100 spoons, and 100 knives, which made it easy to plan for about 100 guests without having to buy multiple packs. Everything arrived neatly organized in a clear storage box, which actually made it super easy to keep things tidy until party time. The gold metallic finish is surprisingly nice. It gave the table a more polished, elegant look than standard plastic cutlery. I used them for a semi-formal dinner setup, and they blended in well with the decorations instead of looking cheap or out of place. As for durability, they’re definitely heavier than typical disposable utensils. The forks handled pasta and salads just fine, and the knives worked well for softer foods like chicken and cake. They’re not quite the same as real metal silverware, of course, but for plastic they’re pretty sturdy and didn’t snap or bend easily. I also appreciated that they’re BPA-free and disposable, which made cleanup incredibly simple once everything wrapped up. The only small downside is that if you’re cutting tougher foods like steak, you might notice the knives aren’t quite strong enough for that. But for most party foods, buffets, and desserts, they work perfectly well. Overall, this is a great option for parties, weddings, or large dinners when you want something that looks nicer than basic plastic but still want the convenience of disposable utensils. I’d definitely use them again for future events.

Amazing value, looks great - quite durable
Color: Gold
I recently hosted a large dinner party and decided to go with the 300 Pack Premium Heavy Duty Gold Plastic Silverware. Let me tell you, it was a great choice! First off, the set comes with 100 forks, spoons, and knives, which was perfect for my guest list of 100. I love that it’s all in one package, so I didn’t have to stress about running out of cutlery during the event. The heavy-duty plastic feels surprisingly sturdy, and I didn’t have a single fork bend or break, even with the heartier dishes I served. The gold metallic finish added such an elegant touch to the table setting. My guests complimented how fancy it looked for disposable cutlery! It really elevated the overall vibe of the dinner without the hassle of using real silverware or worrying about cleanup. After the meals, all I had to do was toss everything into the trash, which saved me a ton of time and effort. Another thing I appreciated was the organized storage box. It kept everything neat and clean until I was ready to use it, which is a bonus if you're planning an event. All in all, I highly recommend this set for anyone hosting gatherings. It combines functionality with a stylish appearance, making cleanup a breeze while still impressing your guests.

Slight odor, more flexible than I expected
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
These looked like they were going to be heavy duty, but they were more flexible than I expected (see video clip). They probably still will work well, but if you’re poking your fork into something stiff, expect that the fork might bend some. There was a slight chemical odor when I opened the package, and I’m not a fan of that. As someone with MCS, I have to avoid exposure to fragrances and other harmful chemicals, and it makes me wonder what these are coated with. The gold might be cute for the aesthetic you’re going for with a particular gathering or party, but I find it unnecessary. I would rather go with the real heavy duty ones that are clear plastic from a club warehouse rather than these gold ones. I feel that these are overpriced for the quality, but not a bad price if all you’re going for is the gold aesthetic.

Nice, high end look, disposable
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
I hate to spend a lot of money on something that's just going to be thrown away, so typically buy dollar store disposable silverware for parties and gatherings. But every once in a while, you want something more upscale or high end looking. Enter this pricy but pretty plastic silverware. It is perfect for a wedding, anniversary, shower or other event where you want a nicer look instead of basic. It is sturdy. You won't have to worry about it breaking as someone spears a bite of chicken. It looks great! There's only so much you can do with plastic ware but for what it is, it looks really nice.
