  Since the 1950s, scientists have attempted to harness nuclear fusion—the process that creates the Sun's energy—to generate near-limitless amounts of electricity. But the fact that we still have no fusion power plants is testament to the complexities of the challenge. Now, the deepening climate crisis means that researchers around the world are in a race to create a mini-Sun here on Earth. The glittering prize is an energy source that emits no greenhouse gases and could solve energy equity and supply issues at a stroke. Sharon Ann Holgate, a former Young Professional Physicist of the Year, tells the compelling story of the ongoing scientific quest for a revolutionary new era of green-energy production.

  Break Free From What Holds You Back 
  Ever felt trapped by your own mind? Like your thoughts are quicksand pulling you deeper the more you struggle? You're not alone. 
  This audiobook speaks to anyone who knows what it's like when anxiety takes the wheel or when memories hijack your peace. It's for people who've tried "just thinking positive" and found it doesn't touch the real issues. 
  What you'll get: 
  •	Real talk about a therapy approach that doesn't promise to eliminate your difficult thoughts, but shows you something better - how to live fully even with them 
  •	A straightforward way to figure out what actually matters to you (not what you think should matter) 
  •	Specific help for OCD and PTSD that goes beyond the standard advice 
  •	Simple practices you can actually fit into your life 
  Who needs this: 
  •	If you're tired of being ruled by "what if" thoughts that spiral out of control 
  •	If traumatic experiences still color your world years later 
  •	If you've built your life around avoiding discomfort, only to find your world getting smaller 
  •	If therapy has helped but you want tools for the spaces between sessions 
  •	If you work in mental health and want fresh perspectives for your clients 
  The techniques shared here come from real clinical work with real people. They're explained in everyday language with examples that might make you think, "that's exactly how it feels." 
  Listen while driving, doing dishes, or before sleep. The beauty of these approaches is they don't require perfect focus or hours of meditation. Small shifts add up. Little moments of awareness create space for change. 
  This audiobook doesn't promise to fix you, because you're not broken. It offers a way to stop fighting yourself and start moving toward the life you want - even with uncertainty, even with difficult feelings, even with an imperfect mind.

  The Edible City

  If a city is its people, and its people are what they eat, then shouldn’t food play a larger role in our dialogue about how and where we live? The food of a metropolis is essential to its character. Native plants, proximity to farmland, the locations of supermarkets, immigration, the role chefs can and should play in society – how a city nourishes itself makes a statement about the kind of city it is.
     
  With a cornucopia of essays on comestibles, The Edible City considers how one city eats. It includes dishes on peaches and poverty, on processing plants and public gardens, on rats and bees and bad restaurant service, on schnitzel and school lunches. There are incisive studies of food-security policy, of feeding the needy and of waste, and a happy tale about a hardy fig tree.
     
  Together they form a saucy picture of how Toronto – and, by extension, every city – sustains itself, from growing basilon balconies to four-star restaurants. Dig into The Edible City and get the whole story, from field to fork.
     
  'The common theme here is connecting people through food. In the final essay, Wayne Roberts of the Toronto Food Policy Council suggests that this connection is really about empowerment, and empowering readers is exactly what The Edible City is sure to do.'
     
  – Quill and Quire
     
  'Part historical recollection, part rallying cry and part love letter to all things gustatory in our fair city, this compilation has an angle for every taste.'
