  An exploration of how the Cryogenian Period, when our planet was covered in ice for millions of years, created today's remarkable biodiversity 
   
   
    
  More than half a billion years ago, our world was completely covered by glaciers, a "Snowball Earth" that persisted for millions of years. Incredibly, this unimaginable cold led to the remarkable diversification of life on earth known as the Cambrian explosion. With a geologist's eye and a knack for storytelling, Graham Shields explores when and how such inhospitable conditions enabled animals to evolve, radiate, and diversify into our earliest ancestors. 
   
   
    
  This journey navigates the wild swings between hot and cold climates, oxygenation and asphyxiation, biological radiations and extinctions, asking how such instability relates to grander forces that brought our planet to its modern state. Shields guides listeners through evidence found in the Australian outback, Mongolia, Scotland, and other locales, revealing how geologists can trace glaciation, the atmosphere, oceans, mountain building, and more through the earth's rocks, providing a comprehensive theory of how life evolved and diversified.

  This audiobook narrated by Jennifer Woodward provides the first comprehensive account of menopause from prehistory to today
  
  Are the ways we look at menopause all wrong? Historian Susan Mattern says yes, and The Slow Moon Climbs reveals just how wrong we have been. Taking readers from the rainforests of Paraguay to the streets of Tokyo, Mattern draws on historical, scientific, and cultural research to reveal how our perceptions of menopause developed from prehistory to today. For most of human history, people had no word for menopause and did not view it as a medical condition. Rather, in traditional foraging and agrarian societies, it was a transition to another important life stage. This book, then, introduces new ways of understanding life beyond fertility.
  
  Mattern examines the fascinating "Grandmother Hypothesis"—which argues for the importance of elders in the rearing of future generations—as well as other evolutionary theories that have generated surprising insights about menopause and the place of older people in society. She looks at agricultural communities where households relied on postreproductive women for the family's survival. And she explores the emergence of menopause as a medical condition in the Western world. It was only around 1700 that people began to see menopause as a dangerous pathological disorder linked to upsetting symptoms that rendered women weak and vulnerable. Mattern argues that menopause was another syndrome, like hysterical suffocation or melancholia, that emerged or reemerged in early modern Europe in tandem with the rise of a professional medical class.
  The Slow Moon Climbs casts menopause, at last, in the positive light it deserves—not only as an essential life stage, but also as a key factor in the history of human flourishing.

  A proven framework to align teams, define clear design inputs, and accelerate product success 
   
  In product development, great ideas can get lost in translation. Teams kick off with enthusiasm, but somewhere between the first design iteration meeting and the engineering handoff, misaligned assumptions lead to costly rework, stalled timelines, and products that miss the mark.
   
  In Pierce the Design Fog, quality advocate and senior engineer Dianna Deeney reveals why 85% of companies struggle to get product development right—and how to fix it. Drawing from over 25 years in manufacturing, quality engineering, and cross-functional leadership, she shares practical methods for bridging the gap between concept development and engineering-ready designs.
   
  Using her ADEPT Team Framework and Concept Space Model, Deeney provides a repeatable process to unite diverse perspectives, surface hidden requirements, and define clear design inputs focused on user experience. This hands-on playbook for managers, engineers, and product leaders uses step-by-step guidance, real-world examples, and ready-to-use templates to engage every stakeholder from the start and turn ideas into high-quality, customer-focused design inputs.
   
  You will learn how to:
  
  Identify and avoid the "Ta-da Flop" by validating concepts before engineering begins.
  Lead efficient, collaborative meetings that produce actionable design inputs.
  Translate end user needs into prioritized, measurable requirements.
  Apply quality engineering tools to reduce design loops and speed approvals.
  Foster stronger cross-functional team alignment and earlier buy-in. 
  
   
  If you lead engineers, market products, or manage cross-functional teams, Pierce the Design Fog will change the way you start projects—with results your customers will notice.
