  In a world increasingly run by algorithms and artificial intelligence, Hatim Rahman traces how organizations are using algorithms to control workers in an "invisible cage." 
   
   
    
  Inside the Invisible Cage uses unique longitudinal data to investigate how digital labor platforms use algorithms to dictate the actions of high-skilled workers by determining accepted behaviors, work opportunities, and even success. As Hatim Rahman explains, employers can use algorithms to shift rules and guidelines without notice, explanation, or recourse for workers. The invisible cage signals a profound shift in the way markets and organizations categorize and ultimately control people. 
   
   
    
  Unlike previous forms of labor control, the invisible cage is ubiquitous, yet it is also opaque and shifting, which makes breaking free from it difficult for workers. This book traces how the invisible cage was developed over time and the implications it has for the spread of new technology, such as generative artificial intelligence. Inside the Invisible Cage also provides organizations, workers, and policymakers with insights on how to ensure the future of work has truly equitable, mutually beneficial outcomes.

  Minding the Climate - How...

  If we believe the climate crisis is real, why is it so difficult to change our behavior and our consumer tendencies? 
   
   
   
  Minding the Climate investigates this problem in the neuroscience of decision-making. Ann-Christine Duhaime, MD, points to the evolution of the human brain during eons of resource scarcity. The brain adapted to prioritize short-term survival over more uncertain long-term outcomes. But the resulting behavioral architecture is poorly suited to the present, when scarcity is a lesser concern and slow-moving challenges like environmental issues present the greatest danger. Duhaime details how even our acknowledged best interests are thwarted by the brain's reward system: if a behavior isn't perceived as immediately beneficial, we probably won't do it—never mind that we "know" we should. 
   
   
   
  Luckily, we can sway our brains, and those of others, to alter our behaviors. Duhaime describes concrete, achievable interventions that have been shown to encourage our neurological circuits to embrace new rewards. Such small, incremental steps that individuals take, whether in their roles as consumers, in the workplace, or in leadership positions, are necessary to mitigate climate change. The more we understand how our tendencies can be overridden by our brain's capacity to adapt, Duhaime argues, the more likely we are to have a future.

  A myth-busting guide on testosterone from leading male health expert Dr Jeff Foster to help men feel stronger, healthier, and get back to their best selves. 
  Testosterone: it’s a powerhouse hormone that fuels men’s energy, focus, mood, and vitality at every age. Yet despite its importance, testosterone is surrounded by confusion, stigma, and half-truths. 
  In this accessible, myth-busting guide, leading expert in male health Dr Jeff Foster sets the record straight. Drawing on years of clinical experience as an NHS GP Partner and a Private GP with a specialist interest in men's health, he explains how testosterone really works; why deficiency is far more common than most people think, and how it can impact everything from sleep to mental health, strength to sex, and overall wellbeing. 
  Learn how to spot the signs of low testosterone; what modern treatments can (and can’t) do, and why looking after your hormone health is one of the best investments you can make for your future. 
  Testosterone is not simply about muscles and libido. It’s about health, confidence, and living life to the fullest. 
  This is the men's health book all men need to read: 
  ‘Essential reading for every man’ – James Haskell 
  ‘No-one knows more about testosterone and men’s health than Dr Jeff’ – Tom Hopper 
  ‘Dr Jeff is the ultimate expert in men’s health – you need this book’ – Jason Fox 
  ‘Eye-opening, informative and genuinely useful – a must-read for every man’ – Dr Naomi Potter 
  ‘I found Dr Jeff’s book so insightful and enriching on the subject of testosterone, I had an instant intellectual tumescence’ – Russell Kane 
  For fans of Rotimi Akinsete (This Book Could Help), Mind (Take a Moment), and James Armstrong (Keto Diet for Weight Loss).

  Millions of people around the world have been diagnosed with incurable autoimmune diseases like Multiple Sclerosis. Debilitating conditions that make us tired, ill, and miserable. The only solution the medical industry offers are side-effect riddled maintenance drugs such as steroids and painkillers.Getting a formal diagnosis of MS is often a lengthy and challenging process. Many never get a medical confirmation of what is happening to their mind and body at all! Countless individuals live in constant pain and discomfort because they incorrectly assume all their health problems are the natural result of aging.Unfortunately, Craig Beck joined this ill-health demographic at the age of 48. After suffering months of severe symptoms, eventually, he too got handed the autoimmunity life sentence. However, rather than accept the hand as it was dealt. He remembered that the best medicine for a long and healthy life is found at the end of your fork, not the doctor's prescription pad. Craig decided to fall back on his research into natural medicine. He designed a diet and lifestyle that made inflammation the enemy and target. A process that would show amazing success at pushing Multiple Sclerosis firmly into near-permanent remission. In this special MS addition of the Autoimmune Antidote, you will gain valuable insight into the new, natural approach that can help you prevent and maybe even reverse the life-limiting symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis and other inflammatory health problems.

  In a world where technology is advancing at an astounding rate, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL) are leading the way in bringing about previously unheard-of changes to almost every aspect of our lives. Artificial intelligence (AI) has become ingrained in modern life, from smart homes anticipating our needs to modern medical diagnostics, demonstrating its indispensable role as a partner in human progress rather than merely an aid. 
  With its title, "Artificial Intelligence: Harnessing the Power of Machine Learning and Deep Learning," the e-book seeks to serve as your introduction to this fascinating and ever-evolving world, where the limits of human capabilities are continually being pushed to the limit. Whether you are an experienced practitioner looking to expand your knowledge or a curious mind exploring this field for the first time, this thorough guide aims to provide insightful information. 
  We will go on an insightful journey together in the upcoming chapters as we examine the complex web of ideas, advancements, and technologies that make up the field of artificial intelligence. We will discuss the algorithms that enable machines to learn from and forecast data as we delve deeply into machine learning principles. As we continue, we will delve deeper and deeper into the fascinating field of deep learning, a subset of machine learning that is described by neural networks that can remarkably mimic the functioning of the human brain.
