  In the Herbarium - The Hidden...

  Maura C. Flannery

  Collections of preserved plant specimens, known as herbaria, have existed for nearly five centuries. These pressed and labeled plants have been essential resources for scientists, allowing them to describe and differentiate species and to document and research plant changes and biodiversity over time—including changes related to climate. 
   
   
   
  Maura C. Flannery tells the history of herbaria, from the earliest collections belonging to such advocates of the technique as sixteenth-century botanist Luca Ghini, to the collections of poets, politicians, and painters, and to the digitization of these precious specimens today. She charts the growth of herbaria during the Age of Exploration, the development of classification systems to organize the collections, and herbaria's indispensable role in the tracking of climate change and molecular evolution. Herbaria also have historical, aesthetic, cultural, and ethnobotanical value—these preserved plants can be linked to the Indigenous peoples who used them, the collectors who sought them out, and the scientists who studied them. 
   
   
   
  This book testifies to the central role of herbaria in the history of plant study and to their continued value, not only to biologists but to entirely new users as well: gardeners, artists, students, and citizen-scientists.

  Australia on the Brink

  In 1996, the first independent national report on the state of Australia’s environment found that we faced serious problems. With increasing urgency, five subsequent reports declared those problems were all getting worse, each calling for immediate action to protect our future. The 2021 report determined that, ‘Overall, the state and trend of the environment of Australia are poor and deteriorating as a result of increasing pressures from climate change, habitat loss, invasive species, pollution and resource extraction,’ and warned of the dramatic impact on our health and living standards. It is now clearer than ever that the consequences of long-term inaction are upon us.Accelerating climate change and the loss of our unique biodiversity are the most obvious signs of the grim outlook for future generations of Australians. But the international trends are equally worrying, with quixotic economic systems casting doubt on the wisdom of running down our domestic production of essential goods and services in favour of a dependence on trade. It is no exaggeration to conclude that Australian society itself is at risk.In Australia on the Brink, Ian Lowe argues that the essential first steps in addressing these threats are stabilising the global climate and protecting our local biota. We must also change the emphasis of resource extraction from a damaging reliance on trade to improving our capacity to meet our own needs. This is our best – perhaps our only – chance of restoring a sense of social stability, and the equality of opportunity that was once a hallmark of this country.

  Data Privacy and Protection -...

  Data privacy refers to the right of individuals to have control over their personal information and the expectation that this data will be handled responsibly. It is about ensuring that sensitive data—such as health records, financial details, identification numbers, and online activity—is not accessed or shared without consent. This concept is not new, but it has taken on a whole new level of urgency in the digital era. With data becoming a key currency in the global economy, companies often collect more information than is necessary, and in many cases, users are unaware of what they are agreeing to when they accept privacy policies or terms of service. 
  The evolution of privacy has mirrored the advancement of technology. In the early days, privacy was mainly about physical spaces—having the right to keep personal matters behind closed doors. But now, with the explosion of digital platforms, privacy concerns have expanded into the virtual realm. This shift has brought new challenges, such as how to manage consent in online environments, what responsibilities companies have to protect user data, and how individuals can regain some control over their personal information in a landscape designed to collect and monetize it.

  Artificial Intelligence -...

  The principle of artificial intelligence has been around since the 1970s. Originally, the primary objective was for computers to make choices with no input from people. However, it never ever caught on, partially because system administrators could not find out how to utilize all the information. Even if some could understand the value in the data, it was really difficult to utilize, even for engineers. 
    
  On top of that, the challenge of extracting data from the simple databases of 3 decades ago was huge. Early AI applications would spit out reams of data, most of which wasn't sharable or adaptive to different business needs.

  The Plague explores the profound changes and enduring continuities that shaped European society in the wake of the Black Death and other crises of the 1300s. Through a series of thematic chapters, the book examines the resilience of communities, the evolution of social and economic structures, the persistence of faith, and the seeds of cultural and intellectual transformation. Far from being an age of unmitigated darkness, the fourteenth century emerges as a dynamic period of adaptation, creativity, and the quiet beginnings of the modern world.
