  The Hell Bomb by Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist William L. Laurence is a sobering, meticulously detailed account of the dawn of the hydrogen bomb era. Written in the early 1950s, this scientific and political examination offers a front-row perspective on one of the most terrifying technological advancements in human history. Drawing on firsthand experiences from his time at Los Alamos and exclusive interviews with leading figures such as Hans A. Bethe, Laurence unpacks the terrifying potential of thermonuclear fusion and its unparalleled destructive power. 
  More than just a scientific treatise, The Hell Bomb wrestles with the ethical dilemmas and geopolitical consequences of nuclear armament in a rapidly changing post–World War II world. Laurence urges the public to confront the moral weight of such weapons and consider the path humanity must choose as it stands on the brink of unimaginable devastation. 
  Narrated with gravity and insight by Nathan Edwards, this audiobook remains a critical historical document and a powerful warning from the nuclear age's front lines.

  In this 2023 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, New York Times contributor Margaret Renkl suggests that we make an “untidy” garden that will nurture our soul and the natural world. She encourages us to fall in love with the natural companions in our lives: the spiders, the hummingbirds, crickets, and raccoons, and all the other species who are living right beside us. When we fall in love with them, we can't help but want to save them. Renkl suggests stepping out of our small world of computer screens, smartphones and TVs to step into the larger natural world, which is everywhere, just outside our front door.   
  Margaret Renkl is the author of:Late Migrations: A Natural History of Love and Loss (Milkweed Editions 2019)Graceland, At Last: Notes on Hope and Heartache from the American South. (Milkweed Editions 2021)The Comfort of Crows: A Backyard Year (Spiegel and Grau 2023)
