Summary

Waterboxx Plant Aid explores a groundbreaking approach to combatting desertification and promoting sustainable agriculture in arid lands. The book highlights the Waterboxx, an engineered device designed to provide seedlings with a regulated water supply, protecting them from harsh conditions. 

 
Intriguingly, the Waterboxx collects rainwater and condensation, directly feeding the plant's roots for up to a year, which fosters root development and allows plants to access deeper water sources independently. This innovative device offers a localized, eco-friendly alternative to traditional irrigation methods. 

 
The book addresses the escalating issues of desertification and the need for sustainable agriculture. It details the Waterboxx's design, functionality, and operational principles, supported by field trial data from diverse desert environments. Case studies of successful projects demonstrate the socio-economic benefits of Waterboxx implementation. 

 
The book progresses methodically, introducing the concepts of desertification, analyzing the Waterboxx's mechanics, and examining real-world impacts, before concluding with a discussion of the Waterboxx's future potential in global reforestation efforts and environmental engineering.

Epidemiology - Tracking Diseases

Mike Crawford

Epidemiology is the scientific study of the distribution, patterns, and determinants of health and disease conditions in populations. It serves as the cornerstone of public health, enabling researchers and policymakers to understand how diseases spread, who is most at risk, and what factors contribute to health outcomes. By identifying these elements, epidemiology helps in designing and implementing effective disease prevention and control measures, ultimately improving public health and reducing the burden of illnesses. 
The significance of epidemiology lies in its ability to provide a systematic approach to studying health-related issues. Through observation, data collection, and statistical analysis, epidemiologists uncover trends in disease occurrence and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions. This discipline extends beyond infectious diseases, encompassing chronic conditions, environmental health hazards, and even social determinants of health. By examining these factors, epidemiologists can offer insights into the root causes of health disparities and develop strategies to mitigate them. 
One of the key contributions of epidemiology is its role in disease surveillance. Monitoring the spread of infectious diseases, such as influenza, tuberculosis, or COVID-19, allows health authorities to implement timely responses, including vaccinations, quarantine measures, and public health advisories. Without epidemiology, controlling outbreaks and minimizing their impact on society would be significantly more challenging.

The Heart And Heart Disease - A...

Owen Jones

Six Interesting Facts about the Heart 
1. Heart and circulatory diseases cause a quarter of all deaths in the UK, that’s more than 170,000 deaths each year – an average of 480 deaths each day or one every three minutes in the UK⁵. 
2. There are around 7.6 million people living with a heart or circulatory disease in the UK: 4 million men and 3.6 million women⁵. 
3. Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common type of heart disease. It is the most common cause of heart attack and was the single biggest killer of both men and women worldwide in 2019⁵. 
4. In the US, heart disease is the leading cause of death for men, women, and people of most racial and ethnic groups¹. One person dies every 33 seconds in the United States from cardiovascular disease¹. 
5. About 695,000 people in the United States died from heart disease in 2021—that’s 1 in every 5 deaths¹. 
6. The most common type of heart disease in the USA is coronary artery disease (CAD), in which the major blood vessels to the heart become narrow or blocked with cholesterol and fatty build-up. CAD affects 18.2 million adults, and shockingly, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that every two in ten deaths from CAD happen in people under 65 years old².

Who's a Good Dog? - And How to...

Jessica Pierce

Who's a Good Dog? is an invitation to nurture more thoughtful and balanced relationships with our canine companions. By deepening our curiosity about what our dogs are experiencing, and by working together with them, we can become more effective and compassionate caregivers. 
 
 
  
With sympathy for the challenges met by both dogs and their humans, bioethicist Jessica Pierce explores common practices of caring for dogs, including how we provide exercise, what we feed, how and why we socialize and train, and how we employ tools such as collars and leashes. She helps us both to identify potential sources of fear and anxiety in our dogs' lives and to expand practices that provide physical and emotional nourishment. Who's a Good Dog? also encourages us to think more critically about what we expect of our dogs and how these expectations can set everyone up for success or failure. Pierce offers resources to help us cultivate attentiveness and kindness, inspiring us to practice the art of noticing, of astonishment, of looking with fresh eyes at these beings we think we know so well. And more than this, she makes her findings relatable by examining facets of her relationship with Bella, the dog in her life. As Bella shows throughout, all dogs are good dogs, and we, as humans and dog guardians, could be doing a little bit better to get along with them.

Fauci - The Bernie Madoff of...

Charles Ortleb

This was the first book, the very first, to issue a warning about the biggest crisis in science and public health. The author began sounding the alarm as a newspaper publisher in the 80s. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. brought the book to the world's attention when he recommended it to his 600,000 followers on his Instagram account in April, 2020. America is now listening.
This little book is a chapter from The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epidemic Cover-up Volume Two, a book that combines the history of AIDS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome with a trenchant political analysis of the science and scientists that got everything terribly wrong.
In his bestseller, The Real Anthony Fauci, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called Charles Ortleb, "Dr. Fauci's perennial Boswell." As the publisher and editor-in-chief of New York Native, he was the first person to devote a newspaper to the coverage of AIDS, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and the careers of Robert Gallo and Anthony Fauci. Randy Shilts praised his newspaper's pioneering AIDS reporting in And the Band Played On. In Rolling Stone, David Black said New York Native deserved a Pulitzer Prize for its coverage of the epidemic.
This book is the first book to conceptualize the medical and scientific corruption of the last four decades as a medical and scientific Ponzi scheme. It is a radical new way of looking at medical and scientific fraud that has been promoted and enabled for decades. There are ten elements that the author has identified in a medical and scientific Ponzi scheme that have hidden the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome epidemic.
