Summary

Forest Killers explores the fascinating world of apex predators in forest ecosystems, emphasizing their crucial role in maintaining ecological balance and biodiversity. The book delves into predator-prey interactions, highlighting how species like jaguars, anacondas, and venomous snakes have evolved unique hunting strategies. These predators are vital for controlling populations and preventing trophic cascades, where the removal of a top predator can drastically alter the entire ecosystem. The book examines the ecological impact of these forest dwellers and their behaviors, revealing how jaguars, for instance, use stealth and power to hunt, while anacondas rely on constriction to subdue their prey. Venomous snakes display an array of venom types adapted to their specific prey. Importantly, it addresses the increasing threats these predators face due to habitat loss and human activities. The book progresses systematically, beginning with ecological principles and moving into detailed studies of specific predators. It blends scientific research with accessible language, making it valuable for students, conservationists, and anyone interested in nature and biology. By understanding these complex relationships, the book aims to inform conservation efforts and promote greater awareness of the importance of protecting these vital species.

    Discarded - How Technofossils...

    What kind of fossils will we leave, as relics into the far future? A blizzard of new objects has suddenly appeared on Earth: plastic bottles, ballpoint pens, concrete flyways, chicken bones, cans, teabags, phones, shirts. They're produced for our comfort and pleasure then quickly discarded. This new-made treasure chest underpins our lives. But it is also giving a completely new style of fossilization to our planet. Designed to resist corrosion and decay, many will remain, petrified, as future geology. 
 
 
 
What will these technofossils look like? How long will they last and how will they change? Discarded describes how they transform and what will be left of them. These new fossils have meaning for our lives today. For we live on a world increasingly buried under our growing waste. As our discarded artefacts begin to change into fossils, they may be swallowed by birds, entangle fish, alter microbial communities and release toxins. Even buried in rock, technofossils may break down into new-formed oil and gas, change the composition of groundwater, and attract new mineral growths. 
 
 
 
It is a new planetary phenomenon, now unfolding around us. Scientists are only just beginning to grasp its scale, and get to grips with how it functions. This book describes the kind of science that is emerging to show the far-future human footprint on Earth.

    Read by the author.  
Data is not about number crunching. It’s about ideas. And when used properly (read: ethically), it is the problem solver of our time. 
Yet many savvy people seem to be in data denial: they don’t think they need to understand data, or it’s too complicated, or worse, using it is somehow unethical. Yet as data and AI (just an accelerated way to put data to work) move to the center of professional and civic life, every professional and citizen needs to harness this power. 
In The Little Book of Data, each chapter illustrates one of the core principles of solving problems with data by featuring an expert who has solved a big problem with data—from the entrepreneur creating a “loneliness score” to the epidemiologist trying to save lives by finding disease “hotspots.” 
The stories are told in a fast-moving, vivid, sometimes comic style, and cover a wide frame of reference from adtech to climate tech, the bubonic plague, tiny submarines, genomics, railroads, bond ratings, and meat grading. (That’s right. Meat.) 
Along the way Evans injects lessons from his own career journey and offers practical thought-starters for readers to apply to their own organizations. 
By reading The Little Book of Data, you will achieve the fluency to apply your data superpowers to your own mission and challenges—and you will have fun along the way. 
You will be, in other words, a data person.

    Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common medical condition that can have serious health consequences for both adults and children. It can lead to various complications, such as cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, stroke, and type two diabetes. Many OSA patients often experience persistent drowsiness before their condition is diagnosed and treated, which can result in accidents while operating heavy machinery or driving on the road.OSA in pediatric patients is often underdiagnosed despite its association with significant morbidity categories, such as neurobehavioral, cardiovascular, and somatic growth.Screening for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) should be prioritized as much as screening for other chronic diseases. The best and most cost-effective way to manage OSA is by incorporating a multidisciplinary team model with various medical and dental specialties.Every healthcare facility should prioritize early diagnosis and intervention of OSA to save time and money spent in operating rooms and intensive care units.This book illustrates an innovative multidisciplinary treatment pathway that aims to provide high-quality and cost-effective healthcare for adults and children with OSA in any healthcare facility.
