  Best New Books on Space 2024 – Forbes 
  ‘Rarely is a non-fiction book about science this engaging’ – Forbes 
  Why darkness is so important – to plants, to animals, and to ourselves – and why we must protect it all costs. 
  Darkness is the first thing we know in our human existence. Safe and warm inside the bubble of the womb, we are comfortable in that embracing dark. But as soon as we are bought into the light, we learn to fear the dark. Why? 
  This book is a celebration of all things that go bump in the night and the joy that can be found when the sun goes down. As a society we have closed our curtains to the darkness, now Dani Robertson urges you to cast those curtains wide, step out of your front door and let the darkness pull you in. 
  Some 99 per cent of Western Europeans live under light polluted skies, but what is this doing to our health? Our wellbeing? Our connection to the cycles of nature? 
  Our wildlife, too, has been cast into the harsh glare of our light addiction, with devastating impacts. 
  In this book Dani shares with you the excitement and adventure she has found when everyone else is tucked up in bed. She explores constellations and cultures, enjoys environmental escapades, all whilst learning why we are addicted to light and why it is ruining our lives. She’ll show you why the darkness is so important and why we must protect it all costs. You’ll become a crusader of Darkness and an expert on what we can do to stop the onward march of light pollution (clue: it’s as easy as the flick of a switch). 
  Her life depends on darkness, and yours does too. 
  Dani Robertson's All Through The Night is a non-fiction exploration of the importance of darkness in our ecosystems. It's a journey through the wilderness of the night sky, touching on topics of astronomy, ecology, and conservation. This bestseller is a call to action for the protection of our habitats from light pollution. 
  For fans of John Lewis-Stempel (England), Katherine May (Enchantment), Robin Wall Kimmerer (Gathering Moss), Matt Haig (The Comfort Book), and Derek Gow (Birds, Beasts and Bedlam).

  "The Evolution of Software Development Methodologies: Navigating the Paths of Creation: An Overview of Software Development Methodologies," gives a comprehensive review of the tactics, procedures, and inventions that have pushed forward software development. This book explores the change in the development of software: from very structured and systematic approaches to flexible and dynamic frameworks characteristic of contemporary software development. This research book focuses on five in-depth chapters, discussing the turning points in this evolution. It starts at the origin of programming, when the fundamental concepts of computation and first coding languages emerged.  
  Then, the birth of structured models is covered with attention to the function of the Waterfall technique, creating methodical, sequential development processes. The discussion then moves on to the transition to Agile practices, where cooperative, iterative techniques transformed teams' approaches toward software projects. Hybrid models such as DevOps are also discussed in meeting some organizational objectives by combining conventional and contemporary methodologies. The new trends include AI-driven techniques and international team collaboration, where there is an extension beyond traditional frameworks.  
  Blending historical analysis, real-world applications, and futuristic viewpoints, this book caters to students, software professionals, and tech enthusiasts alike. It sheds light on the advantages, disadvantages, and breakthroughs of each methodology, thereby emphasizing how flexibility plays a critical role in a fast-changing technological environment. Whether you want to upgrade your know-how in the software development field or understand the challenges of developing software in today's fast-moving world, this book is priceless as a source of learning on the development of methodologies that power digital innovation.

  'Faced daily with my own mortality, I chose to live fabulously—each of my fifty-five years has been full of love, laughter, adventure… and feather boas.'
  Mark Ward is the founder of Haemosexual—an online support and information resource championing equality, education and better healthcare for everyone with a bleeding disorder, no matter what their sexual orientation.

An inspirational tale.' — Elkan Abrahamson, Director of Covid Enquiry Department, Jackson Lees Law Group
