    From Wolf to Supermutt and...

    When Erika adopted Mila, she naively believed that, like instant soup, she wouldn't have to go through the process of cooking all the ingredients from scratch. She wouldn't have to house train, obedience train or intensely socialise a mature dog. Mila quickly proved how misguided she was! Her favourite pastime was zealously chewing Persian rugs while the living room became her personal toilet. Alternatively, when asked to sit, lie down, or come, she'd throw herself on her back in submission and refuse to move. Thunder and fireworks sent her rushing around in a mindless panic, while the sight of other dogs turned her into a screaming banshee. Does this sound familiar?
    Introducing From Wolf to Supermutt and Everything In Between, a book to guide you and your dog to happiness and harmony. Predominantly written with information based on research studies, the book also includes anecdotes based on Erika's own experience to give it the personal factor. Erika's portrayal of all things canine begins with their evolution and domestication, the fundamental processes that triggered our ongoing relationship with dogs. Additionally, the book banishes a few myths, and explores the significance of nature vs nurture, including the importance of genetics, breeding and socialisation. Understanding how our dogs think and learn, knowing the source of canine behaviour problems, including the impact of detrimental and positive training methods, we can pre-empt many behaviour problems and positively shape our dogs into happy hounds.

    Egyptian Science – Innovations and Discoveries of the Ancient World (3 in 1) offers a captivating dive into the scientific brilliance of ancient Egypt, revealing how a civilization often known for its mysticism was also a beacon of practical knowledge and invention. This collection highlights the remarkable advancements made by Egyptian scholars, physicians, engineers, and astronomers—centuries before many of these concepts reached the rest of the world. 
    The first section explores medicine and anatomy, showcasing how ancient Egyptian doctors performed surgeries, treated wounds, and understood diseases with a surprisingly systematic approach. Medical texts, herbal remedies, and anatomical observations formed the foundation of a health system deeply intertwined with both empirical knowledge and spiritual beliefs. 
    In the second section, readers uncover the mathematical and engineering feats that made the construction of monumental structures like pyramids and temples possible. Discover how Egyptians used geometry, surveying tools, and complex planning techniques to design precise buildings and manage the Nile’s life-giving floods. Their grasp of weights, measurements, and balance was essential to everything from agriculture to architecture. 
    The final section reveals the Egyptians' advanced understanding of astronomy and timekeeping. They charted celestial movements, created solar calendars, and aligned structures with astronomical events. Whether for agricultural cycles, religious ceremonies, or royal rituals, their scientific innovations were closely tied to their spiritual worldview. This volume shows how ancient Egypt’s legacy is not only in stone but also in knowledge that shaped civilizations to come.

    TOM BRADY 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
      
    CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
      
    Tom Brady is a celebrated American football quarterback with a career spanning 23 seasons. He played for the New England Patriots (2000-2019) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2020-2022). Brady is considered one of the greatest NFL players of all time and has set numerous records. Brady has 7 Super Bowl wins and 5 Super Bowl MVP awards, both records. He has also won 3 NFL Most Valuable Player awards. He is the all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns, and has won more games than any other quarterback in NFL history. He has been named to the NFL's All-Decade teams for both the 2000s and 2010s. 
      
    CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
      
    Tom Brady's college career at the University of Michigan saw him complete 395 of 638 passes for 4,773 yards and 30 touchdowns. His time at Michigan included a redshirt year in 1995, and he played from 1996 to 1999. 
      
    In 2015, the NFL published a 243-page report about the deflation of footballs used in the AFC Championship Game, concluding that Brady was likely aware of the intentional deflation. Brady was suspended for four games by the NFL due to his involvement. 
      
    A sportswriter revealed that the NFL falsified data and hid information that would have cleared Brady and the Patriots of wrongdoing in the "Deflategate" scandal. It was also noted that 11 of 12 Patriot footballs were not outside the predicted range of the Ideal Gas Law. 
      
    NFL executives reportedly did not know about the Ideal Gas Law, which explains how air pressure in a football can change in certain environments. NFL general counsel Jeff Pash ordered that the records of all PSI data gathered from the 2015 season be deleted.
