Beschreibung

Eye Strain Prevention addresses the growing concern of digital eye strain, or computer vision syndrome, in our screen-dependent world. It dives into the causes like reduced blinking and blue light exposure, highlighting how these factors contribute to symptoms such as headaches and blurred vision. A key insight is that digital eye strain isn't inevitable but preventable. For instance, did you know that the average person blinks far less while using digital devices?

 
The book progresses logically, starting with the basics of eye anatomy and physiology, then moving into the specifics of digital eye strain and its symptoms. It then provides evidence-based strategies, such as the 20-20-20 rule and ergonomic adjustments, to mitigate eye fatigue.

 
What sets this book apart is its practical approach, translating complex information into actionable steps for preventative eye care, empowering readers to maintain optimal eye health.

Carbon Paradox The: Why We Know...

Alex Southwick

We know the science. We know the stakes. And yet — the emissions keep rising. Why, in the face of overwhelming evidence, does humanity remain frozen between knowledge and action? 
In The Carbon Paradox, Alex Southwick delves into one of the most unsettling questions of our age: the psychological, cultural, and political forces that make climate change both undeniable and unchangeable. Through interviews with behavioral scientists, activists, economists, and ordinary citizens, Southwick explores the hidden mechanisms of denial, distraction, and disconnection that shape our collective inaction. 
But this is not a book of blame — it’s a mirror. By tracing the gap between what we know and what we do, The Carbon Paradox reveals the deeper truth: that change depends not on more information, but on reimagining who we are and what we value. 
Rigorously researched and profoundly human, The Carbon Paradox is both diagnosis and invitation — a call to break through paralysis and rediscover the will to act in a warming world.

Africa's Wild Dogs - A survival...

Jocelin Kagan

There are roughly 6,600 wild dogs left in Africa yet they have cast such a spell on top wildlife photographer and naturalist Jocelin Kagan that she is determined to help save them. 
If left to their own devices, they are more than capable of thriving, as this sumptuous photographic natural history shows. Jocelin has called in world experts to add their latest findings about these resourceful, graceful and highly skilled family groups.
Nomadic predators whose territories range thousands of kilometres, they hunt co-operatively, preying on small herbivores. Non-confrontational, they form complex bonds as this book reveals.
Now restricted to small populations and threatened by some shoot-to-kill policies, habitat fragmentation, diseases from domestic dogs, climate change and snares, as well as natural predation from hyenas and lions, Africa's wild dogs will be supported by all the royalties from this book.

Social Capital: Life online in...

Aoife Barry

A David and Goliath story about Ireland’s role as prime real estate for the world’s largest tech multinationals, and the considerable impact it has had on us as individuals.
At the start of the millennium, the Tech giants landed on Ireland’s shores. Dublin, once one of Europe’s poorest cities, became a beacon of Silicon Valley’s promise of progress and power. As the face of the capital was remade in the image of Big Tech, Irish society embraced technology like no other. Romantic Ireland was dead and gone: social media was here to stay.
In this provocative account, Aoife Barry explores the human cost of Ireland’s Faustian pact with Big Tech, from the local communities uprooted by Google to the traumatised moderators squirrelled in the capital’s pockets, keeping the internet safe at a terrible price. Unsettling, insightful, and wryly funny, she paints a portrait of a country addicted to the internet, refreshing the news, refreshing Twitter, scrolling and scrolling towards a feverish future. She turns an equally honest eye on her own life online, from her humble beginnings using dial-up in her parent’s kitchen to working for Ireland’s first digital-only newsroom, and asks what we bargain in exchange for life in the metaverse.
Social Capital is the coming of age story of Ireland 3.0: set against the backdrop of the tech revolution, it chronicles how we collapse the boundary between physical and virtual reality, and where we might go from here.
Barry's new book, Social Capital, is a popular science exploration into the world of computers and information technology. It's a top pick for anyone interested in the intersection of culture, economics, and the latest developments in the tech industry.
For fans of Bill Gifford (Ledyard), Britney Spears (The woman in me), Dolly Alderton (Everything I Know About Love), Bono (Surrender), and Ian H. Robertson (How Confidence Works).
