  From simple syntax to the most advanced technologies "Innovating the Future of Python Programming: Code, Create, Innovate: Unlocking the Potential of Python Programming," an extensive manual covering all the capabilities of Python.  
  From this vast book, you'll learn the benefits, flexibility, and how Python will decide future technological influences. It is both for beginners and advanced professionals. It starts off with a good base, that is, it introduces basic ideas of programming and critical libraries bound to prove helpful in everyday use in Python. 
  The journey then takes on sophisticated subjects such as the scope of cloud computing, processing big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. At the end of each chapter, enforcement of a step-by-step approach for mastering Python and discovering its creative possibilities is provided while one's imagination is challenged in learning new things. 
  Additionally, it will be shown how Python will be the future of technology, blockchain, quantum computing, and IoT. What drives readers to learn more than just Python itself is using it as the tool toward innovation, thus providing them with real-world examples, useful applications, and insights into the language's own development path. 
  Innovating the Future of Python Programming" - it will give you all of the tools and knowledge required to really harness the power of Python, whether writing online applications, automating procedures, or exploring artificial intelligence.

  Stress Nation provides answers to the lingering questions many people have about why they constantly feel tired, lonely, anxious, disconnected, and unwell, explaining in both humorous and poignant prose how the technology that was supposed to make our lives easier is actually one of the leading causes of chronic stress, dysregulated cortisol, and dangerously inadequate sleep. Equal parts commentary and practical guide, this book offers solutions that empower listeners to manage their stress, improve their sleep, and implement scientifically supported methods to break the cycle of device addiction. 
   
  In this book, listeners will discover:How cortisol―the Master Hormone and your body's overworked alarm system―can become dangerously imbalanced, ruin your health, and leave you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed.How Silicon Valley went for your attention instead of your well-being—and how that's warped the way we sleep, date, parent, and even think.Practical ways to unplug, reconnect, and start living like a human again—not a device-controlled zombie. 
   
  Stress Nation is both your wake-up call and game plan that delivers on its promise of a clearer mind, healthier body, and better life.

  Pseudoscience - A Very Short...

  Everyone has heard of the term "pseudoscience," typically used to describe something that looks like science, but is somehow false, misleading, or unproven. Given the virulence of contemporary disputes over the denial of climate change and anti-vaccination movements—both of which display allegations of "pseudoscience" on all sides—there is a clear need to better understand issues of scientific demarcation. 
   
   
   
  Pseudoscience: A Very Short Introduction explores the philosophical and historical attempts to address this problem of demarcation. This book argues that by understanding doctrines that are often seen as antithetical to science, we can learn a great deal about how science operated in the past and does today. This exploration raises several questions: How is the status of science shaped by political or cultural contexts? How does pseudoscience differ from scientific fraud? 
   
   
   
  Michael D. Gordin both answers these questions and guides listeners along a bewildering array of marginalized doctrines, looking at parapsychology (ESP), Lysenkoism, scientific racism, and alchemy, among others, to better understand the struggle to define what science is and is not. Pseudoscience: A Very Short Introduction provides a historical tour through many of these fringe fields in order to provide tools to think deeply about scientific controversies.

  Technologies of Human Rights...

  The speed of technological development, from cell phones to artificial intelligence, opens up exciting new opportunities for promoting human flourishing. It also raises grave risks, threatening not only personal privacy and dignity but also our collective survival. Technologies of Human Rights Representation brings together three fields of research critical to securing our future: changing technologies, human rights, and representation. For each of these fields, this book asks key questions: How can we open the black box of technological advances so that we can more fully understand their effects upon our lives? What can we do to make sure that these effects align with the values of human rights? And how does the way we talk about technology and rights—from military reports and corporate marketing to human rights reports and poetry—amplify or diminish our capacity both to understand and to control what happens next? Contributors from anthropology, communications, criminology, global studies, law, literary and cultural studies, and women and gender studies bring diverse methodological approaches to these crucial questions.

  Cryptids: How We Know They are Real

  When you stare into the shadows... do the shadows stare back? 
  Sasquatch! Mothman! Nessie! The Jackalope! Many cryptids are famous, but which ones are real? Search beyond blurry photos and sketchy eye-witness accounts to examine physical evidence of cryptids that shows... how we know they are real. 
  Sample passages: 
  From Chapter 1 
  "Studying cryptids sharpens the mental tools needed to cut through the thickets of misleading and incomplete evidence. The skills you’ll practice as you judge the existence of Bigfoot can be used to analyze any number of scientific, commercial, political, or philosophical claims. The study of cryptids can lead the open-minded explorer into a better understanding and appreciation of our world. 
  From Chapter 16 
  "The giant squid swims through deep, dark seas surrounded by things we’ll never see, and can’t imagine. 
  In this light, the fact that anyone would state that we’ve already discovered every large creature in the wild is a foolish claim. Just because something is unknown isn’t proof that it’s unreal. If someone tells you a certain cryptid doesn’t exist, there’s no reason to accept that as the final word. There can be no final word. Reality is still being discovered and understood, and there’s an infinite supply of the unknown to transform into the knowable."
