  The Farmer’s Code takes you on a hero’s journey of self-development. It follows a path of transformation and growth to help you become your true, highest self. This journey will lead to a greater understanding of the self and a deeper connection to one’s own values and core principles, which paves the way for a long-lasting legacy.  Legacies provide a roadmap for future generations, showing those who follow your footsteps what is possible as they strive to reach their full potential. Filled with personal stories of the struggles and triumphs of one American farming family, the Code shows how legacies are about more than just personal fulfillment. They can have a profound impact on the lives of others by serving as a guiding light to those who are seeking a better way to live. Just as airline passengers are instructed to see to their own oxygen masks first in the event of an emergency before helping others, legacy building has to start with the self. When you are safe, secure, and strong, you are in a much better position to turn outward to help others. It is then that you can help address societal challenges, advance knowledge and innovation, promote social change, or support the important causes you see in your community.  The Farmer’s Code should spark aspirations, ignite passion, and encourage everyone to strive for greatness. By considering the lasting impact you can make, you will be able to live more purposefully and leave a more positive imprint on the world.

  Our understanding of dinosaur behavior has long been hampered by the inevitable lack of evidence from animals that went extinct more than sixty-five million years ago. Today, with the discovery of new specimens and the development of new and cutting-edge techniques, paleontologists are making major advances in reconstructing how dinosaurs lived and acted. Uncovering Dinosaur Behavior provides an unparalleled look at this emerging field of science, presenting the latest findings on dinosaur behavior and explaining how researchers interpret the often minimal and even conflicting information available to them. 
   
   
   
  David Hone begins by introducing listeners to the fundamentals of dinosaur biology, diversity, and evolution, and goes on to describe their behaviors, from feeding and communication to reproduction, sociality, and combat. Speculation about dinosaur behavior goes back to the earliest scientific studies of these "terrible lizards." Hone traces how pioneering science is opening a window into prehistoric life as never before, and discusses future directions of research in this thrilling and rapidly growing area of paleontology. 
   
   
   
  Written by one of the world's leading dinosaur experts, Uncovering Dinosaur Behavior is a foundational work on the subject and an invaluable reference for anyone interested in these amazing creatures.

  Vanishing Life on Earth

  The book is an abridged story of life that we see now and the life forms that 
  existed in the past. Readers can flip through pages of the planet's 
  history and explore the secrets hidden in the fossils scattered across forgotten landscapes. 
  The species we see today are only a tiny fraction of all those that 
  have ever lived on Earth. Most of the species have vanished throughout the Earth's history. 
  The author intersected at five major extinction episodes and narrated 
  selected stories of the lost world while highlighting life's journey on our plants —from tiny 
  microorganisms to massive dinosaurs, mammoths and mastodons, ultimately leading up to humans. 
  Unfortunately, we're now facing a critical moment when Earth’s biodiversity is at risk of being wiped out entirely, 
  and our planet may stop breathing one day. This prompts readers to reflect on what we have done to bring life's 
  diversity to such a vulnerable state. The author concludes the book with future perspectives on how we all can stop the next mass extinction.

  Ophthalmology - Eye Diseases and...

  Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of eye diseases and disorders. It encompasses the care of the eyes, as well as vision, including conditions that affect the ability to see clearly. As one of the most specialized fields of healthcare, ophthalmology combines elements of surgery, medical diagnosis, and therapeutic care. The eye is an intricate organ that plays a crucial role in the way humans experience the world, and ophthalmology seeks to preserve and enhance vision by addressing a wide range of eye-related conditions. 
  The role of ophthalmologists, medical doctors specialized in eye care, is pivotal in maintaining visual health and addressing the complexities of eye diseases. Ophthalmologists undergo years of specialized education and training in both medical and surgical aspects of eye care. They are responsible for providing comprehensive services, ranging from routine eye examinations to advanced surgical procedures such as cataract surgery, glaucoma treatments, and retinal surgeries. Their expertise also extends to diagnosing and managing diseases that affect the entire eye, from the cornea and lens to the retina and optic nerve. 
  Over the centuries, the field of ophthalmology has evolved considerably. Ancient civilizations, including the Egyptians and Greeks, made early attempts to understand the anatomy and function of the eye. However, it was in the 19th and 20th centuries that modern ophthalmology truly began to take shape, with the invention of essential diagnostic tools and surgical techniques. The development of the ophthalmoscope, for example, revolutionized the ability to examine the interior of the eye, leading to more accurate diagnoses. In the following decades, innovations in surgical methods, such as cataract surgery, and advances in treatments for conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration have drastically improved patient outcomes.
