Sinopsis

Giant Sea Creatures explores the fascinating world of marine megafauna, revealing the evolutionary and ecological factors driving their colossal sizes. The book uncovers how specific adaptations, like the whale shark's efficient filter-feeding or the sunfish's unique morphology, enable these ocean giants to thrive. By examining species from giant squids to whale sharks, the book emphasizes the critical role these creatures play in maintaining healthy marine ecosystems and highlights the ecological processes they influence.

The book presents a comprehensive view of these animals, starting with an overview of gigantism in the ocean and progressing to detailed studies of specific species. Each chapter dives into the anatomy, physiology, and behavior of a different giant, connecting these biological traits to the broader ecological context and conservation challenges.

The book draws from diverse scientific research, offering an accessible yet rigorous analysis suitable for students, conservationists, and anyone intrigued by marine biology and nature. Understanding these giants provides critical insight into broader ecological processes and the challenges these species face in a changing world. The book uniquely combines biological insights with ecological and conservation perspectives, making it a valuable resource for understanding marine life. It acknowledges the limitations of current knowledge, particularly regarding deep-sea creatures, and encourages further research and ethical considerations. By connecting marine biology to fields like oceanography and climate science, Giant Sea Creatures underscores the interdisciplinary nature of marine conservation and its real-world applications.

AI Needs You - How We Can Change...

Verity Harding

This audiobook narrated by Daisy Donovan shares an electrifying vision of how we can safeguard AI's future for the public good

Artificial intelligence may be the most transformative technology of our time. As AI's power grows, so does the need to figure out what—and who—this technology is really for. AI Needs You argues that it is critical for society to take the lead in answering this urgent question and ensuring that AI fulfills its promise.

Verity Harding draws inspiring lessons from the histories of three twentieth-century tech revolutions—the space race, in vitro fertilization, and the internet—to empower each of us to join the conversation about AI and its possible futures. Sharing her perspective as a leading insider in technology and politics, she rejects the dominant narrative, which often likens AI's advent to that of the atomic bomb. History points the way to an achievable future in which democratically determined values guide AI to be peaceful in its intent; to embrace limitations; serve purpose, not profit; and to be firmly rooted in societal trust.
AI Needs You gives us hope that we, the people, can imbue AI with a deep intentionality that reflects our best values, ideals, and interests, and that serves the public good. AI will permeate our lives in unforeseeable ways, but it is clear that the shape of AI's future—and of our own—cannot be left only to those building it. It is up to us to guide this technology away from our worst fears toward a future that we can trust and believe in.

Quando l'audiolibro è donna: io...

Valerio Di Stefano

Questo è il primo di una serie di cinque piccoli volumetti sulla mia esperienza con gli audiolibri.Non si tratta di manualistica o del solito metodo miracoloso per far soldi, bensì di vita vissuta, di quello che si tocca con mano davvero e non in ipotesi in questo particolarissimo settore dell'editoria. Una sorta di "case history" a puntate o a episodi su audiolibri e podcast, ma da leggere. Possibilmente con un sorriso.  
Valerio Di Stefano (1964) è filologo, linguista e ispanista. Siccome non sapeva cosa fare, quindici anni fa è penetrato nella gabbia degli audiolibri e non è più riuscito a uscirne, ma si sta già attrezzando. Come narratore ha pubblicato, tra gli altri, “La voce nel deserto”, “Malinverno”, “Confessione d’un amore fascista”, “La mossa del cavillo” e il recentissimo “Minchia, Signor Tenente!”. In realtà nella vita è padre di Adele Marie e ‘tato’ di Birba che gli ha regalato soltanto dodici cuccioli.
