Who is Conscious? - A Guide to...

Marian Stamp Dawkins

Consciousness is the most fascinating but tantalizingly difficult topic in biology. Although many people now believe that mammals, birds, and possibly all vertebrates are conscious, there are also claims that many other animals such as crabs and insects may be conscious too. Such claims, if true, would have major implications for what we eat, how we control pests, and for our relationship with the animal world. Now, more than ever, it is important to question the evidence and ask: what do we really know about animal consciousness? 
Who is Conscious? is an adventure into animal minds. It is a guide into the conscious experiences of animals with no words to tell us what they might be thinking or feeling. It proposes some simple questions to help us decide which evidence to believe. It looks at recent evidence for consciousness in various animal species and asks how well it stands up to being challenged. It describes research on human consciousness and asks whether we should conclude that non-humans are conscious too.

Coding for Beginners - A...

Alexander Cane

You've probably read the phrase "anyone can learn how to code" many times before you landed this book. 
While setting goals high is great, realistically speaking, coding isn't the most beginner-friendly skill to learn. 
In fact, the resources available online usually make learning how to code sound too easy, but you'll soon find out that the book, tutorial or any other guide assumes you already know the basics and have the semblance of coding skills. By the time you figure this out, you're midway through a book you don't understand and just wasted your precious time. 
This book was written specifically to: 
Give beginners a road map to follow, after choosing the type of project they want to do 
Make the content as straightforward as possible for kids, teens and non-tech adults to understand 
How to Get the Most out of this Book 
For starters, don't skip between chapters. You might get your light-bulb moment as you read through the first chapter, but make sure you understand all your options before deciding on one particular coding project.
