  Could ancient giant sharks called megalodons still exist in the deep sea? What should you do if stung by a jellyfish? Can we predict lightning strikes and how is climate change affecting hurricanes? 
   
   
   
  With humor and easy-to-understand language, marine scientist Ellen Prager and meteorologist Dave Jones use frequently asked and zany questions about the ocean and atmosphere to combat misinformation and make science engaging and understandable for all. From dangerous marine life, coral reefs, and the deep sea to lightning, hurricanes, weather forecasting, the Sun, and climate change, they reveal what's fact, what's fiction, and how to find science-based answers. This book is perfect for anyone curious about the world around them, educators, science communicators, and even scientists who want to learn about and explain topics outside their expertise.

  Dao De Jing

  Lao Laozi

  The Dao De Jing exists on the border between poetry and philosophy, embracing both mythos and logos. Its poetic form can stand alone, but it is enriched when its timeless ideas are analyzed and explained through careful scholarship. For example: “He who knows others is knowledgeable. He who knows himself is wise.” These words resemble Socrates’ account of his own quest in Plato’s Apology.
   
  Ancient philosophy, both in China and in Greece, places self-­‐ knowledge at the center of the search for wisdom. Contemporary philosophers are often misled about this way of thinking, because the self has been detached from external things and separated from nature and society. The wisdom of China and of Europe unites human existence and nature.

  Features a new "where are they now" section, with updates about lives of expedition's original climbers and updated resources based on the "Anti-Racism in the Outdoors" (ARITO) guide. 
   
   
   
  Outdoor journalist James Edward Mills's book, The Adventure Gap, is a groundbreaking volume that is equal parts adventure story, history, and inspiration as it chronicles the first American all-Black summit attempt on Denali in 2013. Mills uses this momentous expedition as a jumping-off point to explore diversity in the outdoors, from Mathew Henson who stood at the North Pole in 1909 to contemporary adventurers such as polar explorer Barbara Hillary and rock climber Kai Lightner. 
   
   
   
  This tenth anniversary edition once again shares the compelling events that unfolded during Expedition Denali's summit bid. But it also provides fresh context: A new thought-provoking afterword by Mills examines what has evolved in and around the outdoor community since that effort. He highlights progress and inspiring stories, such as Full Circle Everest, an expedition led by Phillip Henderson that put an all-Black team on top of the world's highest peak. And he points to places where we can and should all strive for higher achievement. The Adventure Gap has become an essential text in outdoor education and inspiration—a story of our times, now more relevant than ever.

  What if your next customer didn't have a pulse, preferences, or patience for poor performance? 
  In Machine Customers: The Evolution Has Begun, CX Evolutionist Katja Forbes reveals how intelligent agents, autonomous procurement systems, and logic-driven buying platforms are silently revolutionising commerce. This trillion-dollar transformation is happening now, not in some distant future. 
  Visa and Mastercard’s AI agents are shopping for customers. Walmart’s AI procurement makes million-dollar purchasing decisions in seconds without human intervention. Consumer advocate agents negotiate you out of your gym contracts. ChatGPT Agent will plan and book your holidays. These machine customers don’t respond to emotional appeals or brand storytelling. They evaluate clear information, consistent performance, and verifiable claims faster than any human ever could. 
  Every business leader should be asking the same question: "How do we stay competitive when our customers are machines?" Forbes provides the answer. Drawing on exclusive interviews with Don Scheibenreif (Gartner's leading machine customer authority) and Bruce Temkin (creator of industry-standard CX metrics), plus experts from Salesforce, Qualtrics, and other industry leaders, this book reveals the strategic playbook early adopters are using to build competitive advantages. 
  The book transforms abstract concepts into Monday-morning implementation through original frameworks: the Machine Customer Experience Strategy Map, five Machine Customer types, and step-by-step guidance for redesigning customer journeys that win both human hearts and machine logic. There are 30-60-90 day plans for leaders and advice on how to set up a machine customer experience operating system in their organisation. 
  Forbes shows leaders exactly how to make their businesses discoverable to AI agents, design machine-readable value propositions, navigate machine trust and ethics, and build algorithmic loyalty systems that lock out competitors.
