  Thank You For Voting - The...

  In this concise, lively look at the past, present, and future of voting, a journalist examines the long and continuing fight for voting equality, why so few Americans today vote, and innovative ways to educate and motivate them; included are checklists of what to do before election day to prepare to vote and encourage others. 
  Voting is a prized American right and a topic of debate from the earliest days of the country. Yet in the 2016 presidential election, about 40 percent of Americans—and half of the country’s young adults – didn’t vote. Why do so many Americans choose not to vote, and what can we do about it?  
   
  The problem, Erin Geiger Smith contends, is a lack of understanding about our electoral system and a need to make voting more accessible. Thank You for Voting is her eye-opening look at the voting process, starting with the Framers’ perspective, through the Equal Protection amendment and the Voting Rights Act, to the present and simple actions individuals can take to increase civic participation in local, state, and national elections. 
  Geiger Smith expands our knowledge about our democracy—including women’s long fight to win the vote, attempts to suppress newly enfranchised voters' impact, state prohibitions against felons voting, charges of voter fraud and voter suppression, and other vital issues. In a conversational tone, she explains topics that can confuse even the most informed voters: polling, news literacy, gerrymandering and the Electoral College. She also explores how age, race, and socioeconomic factors influence turnout. 
  Ultimately, Thank You for Voting offers hope. Geiger Smith challenges corporations to promote voting, and offers examples of how companies like Patagonia and Walmart have taken up the task in a non-partisan way. And she reveals how get-out-the-vote movements—such as television star Yara Shahidi’s voting organization, Michelle Obama’s When We All Vote campaign, and on-the-ground young activists—innovatively use technology and grassroots techniques to energize first-time voters.

  From Impossible Burgers to lab-made sushi, two witty, plugged-in food scientists explore leading-edge AgTech for the answer to feeding a settlement on Mars—and nine billion Earthlings too 
   
   
   
  Feeding a Martian is one of the greatest challenges in the history of agriculture. Will a Red Planet menu involve cheese and ice cream made from vats of fermented yeast? Will medicine cabinets overflow with pharmaceuticals created from engineered barley grown using geothermal energy? Will the protein of choice feature a chicken breast grown in a lab? Weird, wonderful, and sometimes disgusting, figuring out "what's for dinner on Mars" is far from trivial. If we can figure out how to sustain ourselves on Mars, we will know how to do it on Earth too. In Dinner on Mars, authors Fraser and Newman show how setting the table off-planet will supercharge efforts to produce food sustainably here at home. 
   
   
   
  For futurists, sci-fi geeks, tech nuts, business leaders, and anyone interested in the future of food, Dinner on Mars puts sustainability and adaptability on the menu in the face of our climate crisis.

  Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is one of the most common viral infections worldwide, affecting millions of people regardless of age, gender, or background. Despite its prevalence, HSV remains a subject surrounded by stigma, misinformation, and confusion. Many individuals living with the virus feel isolated due to the misunderstandings surrounding it, while others may struggle to manage the physical, emotional, and psychological effects of the infection. This book aims to address these challenges by providing clear, accurate, and practical information about HSV, empowering readers to understand, prevent, and manage the condition. 
  The goal of this book is not only to inform but also to foster a compassionate, stigma-free approach to living with herpes. We will explore the different types of herpes simplex viruses—HSV-1 and HSV-2—and how they impact the body. By understanding the biology of HSV and the various transmission methods, readers will be better equipped to make informed decisions about their health and relationships. 
  Prevention is key to managing herpes, and we will cover essential strategies for reducing the risk of transmission, including safe practices, medication, and lifestyle adjustments. Whether you're newly diagnosed or have been living with the virus for years, the information provided here will offer practical tools for reducing the frequency and severity of outbreaks, as well as improving quality of life.

  Endometriosis - Manage Pelvic...

  Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two chronic conditions that significantly affect the lives of women around the world. Both are often misunderstood, underdiagnosed, and associated with pelvic pain, yet they are distinct in their causes and manifestations. Understanding these conditions is crucial for improving awareness, diagnosis, and treatment options. 
  Endometriosis is a disorder in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, often causing inflammation, pain, and the formation of adhesions. This misplaced tissue can attach to organs such as the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and the outer surface of the uterus. The most common symptom of endometriosis is pelvic pain, which can vary from mild to debilitating. Women with endometriosis often experience pain during menstruation, intercourse, and bowel movements, and may also suffer from infertility. The condition affects approximately 10% of women worldwide, yet many go undiagnosed for years due to the subtlety of its symptoms and the lack of awareness among both patients and healthcare providers. 
  Adenomyosis, on the other hand, occurs when the tissue that normally lines the uterus grows into the muscular wall of the uterus. This can cause the uterus to become enlarged and tender, often resulting in heavy menstrual bleeding, cramping, and pelvic pain. Although adenomyosis shares some symptoms with endometriosis, such as pain and menstrual irregularities, it is distinct in its pathology and the way it impacts the body. Unlike endometriosis, adenomyosis is more directly related to the uterus itself, leading to a different set of challenges in terms of diagnosis and treatment.

  No need to travel halfway round the globe to spot iconic wildlife – it's right here on our doorstep in the UK and Steve Wright, keen amateur naturalist, travels from the Isle of Man to Norfolk, to the Orkneys, Northern Ireland and everywhere in-between on his various short holiday expeditions, clutching his specific wildlife wish-list for each trip.  
  The result is an inspiring and engaging diary of his personal encounters with white-tailed eagles, otters, bottlenose dolphins, fulmars, puffins, osprey, sand lizards, even red-necked wallabies. And the characters he meets on the way. He hears snipe drumming, watches a shrew in Wales, admires pilot whales off Lewis.  
  Steve's wildlife travel diaries give excellent practical tips, such as bird-hide etiquette, how to identify birds on the wing, how to consult local wildlife rangers about what might be spotted on each outing and where to find that species.  
  But most importantly his highly-readable wildlife travels are a call to others to book themselves in to pubs and small hotels the length and breadth of Britain and follow his example, for a series of fun British wildlife safaris.
