  What is the future of food? A radical look at how the food we eat affects the humans we are. 
  Read by Woody Harrelson. 
  Farmacy was founded by Camilla Fayed in 2016 with the mission to serve transformational food that offers a different future. Moved by the conviction that food can speak to every major crisis facing humanity, Farmacy collaborates with an array of initiatives that support food system transformation, radical human health and the cultivation of personal sovereignty. Manifesto on the Future of Food is the first title by Farmacy Publishing. 
  Farmacy demands a food revolution. With our bodies ailing and our mental health straining, humanity needs a radically different way of eating and farming. Tracing a path from the health of the soil to the health of human beings, Farmacy highlights how food is the connecting agent between our mental, physical and planetary wellbeing. 
  This audio edition of Farmacy’s Manifesto on the Future of Food is a collaboration between researchers, artists and writers, analysing the interconnected topics of soil ecology, industrial agriculture, the medicinal qualities of food, the gut-brain axis and regeneration, charting a bold path towards the renewal of our civilisation. 
  Profits from the sale of this audiobook go to the Farmacy Foundation, which invests in farms and educational initiatives that regenerate soil and empower people to transform their health.

  The work we do doesn’t define our worth. Imagine a world where justice includes space for rest and leisure, away from the relentless grind created by capitalism, white supremacy, and other oppressive forces. For centuries, these systems have exploited bodies for production, leading to destruction and harm by denying the inherent divinity in every human being. But now, people are waking up to this manipulation, and they’re starting to prioritize rest and healing. 
  America was built on the labor of Black and Indigenous people, whose right to rest was denied. The capitalist system grew out of violence and the theft of labor on plantations. These oppressive systems view human bodies as property, not as divine beings. We've been conditioned to believe we must work endlessly or risk falling into poverty. But there’s more beyond this narrow view.

  Computing has become an integral part of modern society, shaping various industries, scientific research, and everyday life. At its core, computing involves the use of computers and algorithms to process data, solve problems, and automate tasks. This chapter provides an overview of computing and the fundamental principles of computational thinking, which form the foundation for problem-solving in the digital age. 
  Computing encompasses both hardware and software components. Hardware refers to the physical devices, such as processors, memory units, and input/output devices, that perform computational tasks. Software, on the other hand, consists of programs and algorithms that instruct hardware on how to process information. The evolution of computing has led to significant advancements, from early mechanical calculators to modern high-performance computing systems capable of handling vast amounts of data. 
  Computational thinking is a problem-solving approach that involves breaking down complex problems into manageable parts, recognizing patterns, and developing step-by-step solutions. It consists of several key principles, including decomposition, abstraction, pattern recognition, and algorithm design. Decomposition involves dividing a problem into smaller, more manageable sub-problems. Abstraction focuses on identifying relevant details while ignoring unnecessary complexity. Pattern recognition allows problem solvers to identify similarities between different problems, enabling efficient solutions. Algorithm design involves creating a set of well-defined steps to achieve a specific outcome.

  Cosmic rays are an intriguing aspect of astrophysics, originating from various sources in the universe, such as supernovae, pulsars, and even black holes. They consist of charged particles accelerated to incredible energies, often far beyond what our most powerful particle accelerators on Earth can achieve. These particles, when they collide with the Earth's atmosphere, create secondary particles in a cascade of interactions, leading to a fascinating array of phenomena. 
    
  Studying cosmic rays provides valuable insights into the universe's most extreme environments and processes. They offer clues about the composition of cosmic objects, the nature of dark matter, and the magnetic fields permeating space. Moreover, understanding cosmic rays is crucial for space exploration, as they pose radiation hazards to astronauts and spacecraft. 
    
  Researchers use ground-based detectors, high-altitude balloons, and even satellites to study cosmic rays from different vantage points. By analyzing the energy spectrum, arrival directions, and particle types, scientists aim to unlock the mysteries surrounding these enigmatic messengers from the cosmos.
