  The National Road - Dispatches...

  This collection of "eloquent essays that examine the relationship between the American landscape and the national character" serves to remind us that despite our differences we all belong to the same land (Publishers Weekly). 
   
   
   
  What does it mean when a nation accustomed to moving begins to settle down, when political discord threatens unity, and when technology disrupts traditional ways of building communities? Is a shared soil enough to reinvigorate a national spirit? 
   
   
   
  From the embaattled newsrooms of small town newspapers to the pornography film sets of the Los Angeles basin, from the check–out lanes of Dollar General to the holy sites of Mormonism, from the nation's highest peaks to the razed remains of a cherished home, like a latter–day Woody Guthrie, Tom Zoellner takes to the highways and byways of a vast land in search of the soul of its people. 
   
   
   
  By turns nostalgic and probing, incisive and enraged, Zoellner's reflections reveal a nation divided by faith, politics, and shifting economies, but—more importantly—one united by a shared sense of ownership in the common land.

  Ever Green - Saving Big Forests...

  Five stunningly large forests remain on Earth: the Taiga, extending from the Pacific Ocean across all of Russia and far-northern Europe; the North American boreal, ranging from Alaska's Bering seacoast to Canada's Atlantic shore; the Amazon, covering almost the entirety of South America's bulge; the Congo, occupying parts of six nations in Africa's wet equatorial middle; and the island forest of New Guinea, twice the size of California. 
   
   
   
  These megaforests are vital to preserving global biodiversity, thousands of cultures, and a stable climate, as John W. Reid and Thomas E. Lovejoy argue convincingly in Ever Green. Megaforests serve an essential role in decarbonizing the atmosphere—the boreal alone holds 1.8 trillion metric tons of carbon in its deep soils and peat layers, 190 years' worth of global emissions at 2019 levels—and saving them is the most immediate and affordable large-scale solution to our planet's most formidable ongoing crisis. 
   
   
   
  Reid and Lovejoy offer practical solutions to address the biggest challenges these forests face, from vastly expanding protected areas, to supporting Indigenous forest stewards, to planning smarter road networks. In gorgeous prose that evokes the majesty of these ancient forests along with the people and animals who inhabit them, Reid and Lovejoy take us on an exhilarating global journey.

  Albert and the Whale - Albrecht...

  Philip Hoare

  In 1520, Albrecht Dürer, the most celebrated artist in Northern Europe, sailed to Zeeland to see a whale. A central figure of the Renaissance, no one had painted or drawn the world like him. Dürer drew hares and rhinoceroses in the way he painted saints and madonnas. The wing of a bird or the wing of an angel; a spider crab or a bursting star like the augury of a black hole, in Dürer's art, they were part of a connected world. Everything had meaning. 
   
   
   
  But now he was in crisis. He had lost his patron, the Holy Roman Emperor. He was moorless and filled with wanderlust. In the shape of the whale, he saw his final ambition. 
   
   
   
  Dürer was the first artist to truly employ the power of reproduction. He reinvented the way people looked at, and understood, art. Most startling and most modern of all, he painted himself, at every stage of his life. 
   
   
   
  But his art captured more than the physical world, he also captured states of mind. 
   
   
   
  Albert and the Whale explores the work of this remarkable man through a personal lens. Drawing on Philip's experience of the natural world, and of the elements that shape our contemporary lives, from suburbia to the wide open sea, Philip will enter Dürer's time machine.

  Medical Research Methods -...

  Medical research is the backbone of advancing healthcare, providing critical insights that shape clinical practices, influence public health policies, and guide the development of new treatments. The primary goal of medical research is to generate reliable and reproducible evidence that can inform decisions on diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases. By understanding the methods of medical research, healthcare professionals and researchers can better evaluate, design, and implement studies that contribute to improving patient care. 
  The importance of research in medicine cannot be overstated, as it allows for the discovery of new knowledge, the development of innovative therapies, and the evaluation of existing medical practices. Medical research has been instrumental in reducing mortality rates, improving the quality of life, and enhancing the effectiveness of treatments. Moreover, it plays a crucial role in addressing emerging health challenges, such as pandemics, chronic diseases, and antimicrobial resistance. 
  At the heart of medical research are study designs, which dictate the methodology for investigating hypotheses and answering research questions. Different types of research designs are used depending on the objectives of the study, the nature of the research question, and the available resources. These designs are broadly categorized into two types: experimental and observational. Experimental designs, such as randomized controlled trials (RCTs), involve the manipulation of variables to test the effects of an intervention, whereas observational designs, such as cohort or case-control studies, examine associations without direct manipulation. Each design has its strengths and limitations, and the choice of design depends on the specific research question, ethical considerations, and feasibility.
