  ‘Focuses a razor light on the plight of one of our most iconic birds. Inspirational!’ Tim Birkhead 
  Curlews are Britain’s largest wading bird, known for their evocative calls which embody wild places; they provoke a range of emotions that many have expressed in poetry, art and music. 
  A bird stands alone on the edge of a mudflat. Its silhouette is unmistakable. A plump body sits atop stilty legs. The long neck arcs into a small head, which tapers further into a long curved bill. The smooth, convex outlines of this curlew are alluring. They touch some ancestral liking we all have for shapes that are round and smooth. 
  Over the last 20 years numbers in the UK have halved; the Eurasian Curlew is one of our most endangered birds. With a quarter of the world population breeding in the UK and Ireland, this is nothing short of a disaster. The curlew is showing all the signs of being the next Great Auk. 
  In Curlew Moon, Mary Colwell takes us on a 500-mile journey on foot from the west coast of Ireland to the east coast of England, to discover what is happening to this beautiful and much-loved bird. She sets off in early spring when the birds are arriving on their breeding grounds, watches them nesting in the hills of Wales and walks through England when the young are hatching. She finishes her walk on the coast of Lincolnshire when the fledglings are trying out their wings. This is also the place many curlews will return to for the winter months. 
  This evocative book chronicles Colwell’s impressive journey, with beautiful illustrations by Jessica Holm, weaving a gentle tale of discovery interspersed with the natural history of this iconic bird that has fascinated us for millennia – and so desperately needs our help. 
  In Curlew Moon, Mary Colwell presents a compelling case for the conservation of the curlew species. The book, a best-seller in the genre of nature writing, emphasises the importance of environmental protection and the role we can play in safeguarding the future of animals. 
  For fans of Raynor Winn (Landlines), Isabella Tree (Wilding), John Lewis-Stempel (England), John Muir (John Muir ), and Derek Gow (Hunt for the Shadow Wolf).

  Artificial Intelligence Secrets...

  What if artificial intelligence stopped feeling like a black box you're simply supposed to trust?
   
  You're told AI will reshape your career, yet nobody hands you a clear picture of how it actually works or what it means for you. So you nod along in meetings, half-guessing, quietly hoping the technology doesn't leave you behind.
   
  That not-quite-knowing wears on you. It's hard to make confident choices about your skills or your next move when the force driving all the change stays a mystery.
   
  This two-in-one collection carries you from the fundamentals to the real-world impact, with no technical background required. Here, at last, is artificial intelligence explained in plain language. In this audiobook, you'll discover:
  
  The three types of AI - what narrow, general, and super intelligence really mean once you strip away the buzzwords.
  How machines actually learn - why an everyday spam filter reveals the whole logic behind machine learning.
  The main training methods - supervised, unsupervised, and semi-supervised learning, plus classification, regression, and adversarial training.
  How deep learning works - the neural networks that power it, and why there are so many different kinds.
  The tools behind the tech - the programming languages, bots, and platforms like TensorFlow that make AI run.
  Where AI already lives in your day - from email and social media to maps and smart personal assistants.
  How major companies deploy it - the way AI reshapes marketing, finance, and customer service.
  What stays uniquely human - the skills to double down on as the machines advance.
  
   
  You'll learn from clear, grounded explanations, including insight from computer scientist Melanie Mitchell, creator of the analogy-making program Copycat.
   
  You don't need a degree or a background in coding to follow a word of it. Understand how the technology works, and it stops being something that happens to you and becomes something you can use.
