    A Waterstones Best Book of 2024: Nature Writing 
The untold story of rural Britain revealed through its artefacts 
'A really lovely, fascinating book. I dived straight into this clever, joyous, celebration of nature, history, and – of course – the countryside.' Charles Spencer, author of The White Ship 
For most of human history, we were rural folk.  
Our daily lives were bound up with working the land, living within the rhythm of the seasons. We poured our energies into growing food, tending to animals and watching the weather. Family, friends and neighbours were often one and the same. Life revolved around the village and its key spaces and places – the church, the green, the school and the marketplace. 
And yet rural life is oddly invisible our historical records. The daily routine of the peasant, the farmer or the craftsperson could never compete with the glamour of city life, war and royal drama. Lives went unrecorded, stories untold. 
There is, though, one way in which we can learn about our rural past. The things we have left behind provide a connection that no document can match; physical artefacts are touchstones that breathe life into its history. From farming tools to children’s toys, domestic objects and strange curios, the everyday items of the past reveal fascinating insights into an often-forgotten way of life. Birth, death, celebration, work, crime, play, medicine, beliefs, diet and our relationship with nature can all be read from these remnants of our past. 
From ancient artefacts to modern-day memorabilia, this startling book weaves a rich tapestry from the fragments of our rural past. 
In her non-fiction book A Brief History of the Countryside in 100 Objects, Sally Coulthard explores the social and cultural dynamics of rural life in Europe. The book, steeped in anthropology and environmental conservation, emphasises the importance of regional studies and the protection of our environment. 
For fans of Jane Cooper (The Lost Flock), Charles King (Every Valley), Lee Alan Dugatkin (Mr. Jefferson and the Giant Moose), James Rebanks (The Shepherd's View), and Clara Parkes (Vanishing Fleece).

    Thermodynamics is the branch of physics that deals with heat, work, and energy transfer. It provides fundamental principles that govern the behavior of physical systems, from microscopic particles to large-scale industrial processes. Understanding thermodynamics is crucial for fields such as engineering, chemistry, and physics, as it helps explain how energy is conserved, transformed, and dissipated. 
One of the fundamental aspects of thermodynamics is the concept of a thermodynamic system, which refers to a specific region of space or a set of substances that are being studied. Systems can be classified as open, closed, or isolated, depending on their ability to exchange energy and matter with their surroundings. An open system allows both energy and matter to flow in and out, while a closed system permits energy transfer but not matter exchange. An isolated system, in contrast, does not exchange either energy or matter with its surroundings. 
Thermodynamic properties are categorized as extensive or intensive. Extensive properties, such as mass, volume, and total energy, depend on the amount of substance present. Intensive properties, like temperature, pressure, and density, do not depend on system size and are uniform throughout a system in equilibrium.
