  What is cancer? What causes it, and why do some people get it, while others don’t?  
  And with so much conflicting information now available – who can we really trust for sensible medical advice anyway?  
  ‘We wholeheartedly recommend The Cancer Roadmap’ The Bone Cancer Research Trust 
  ‘This book is essential, both a courageous no-nonsense companion and a comforting balm.’ Donna Ashworth 
  We all want certainty and hope for ourselves or those we love after a cancer diagnosis, but what we really need is honesty and truth. 
  In The Cancer Roadmap, breast cancer surgeon and three-time cancer patient Dr Liz O’Riordan confronts the big cancer truths (and myths), offering clear, evidence-based answers. She breaks down the latest research to give the facts you need to make informed treatment decisions that are right for you or your loved one. 
  She gives definitive answers to common questions such as:Is it your fault you got cancer?Do you need to stop drinking alcohol?Can you cure cancer by changing your diet?Does alternative medicine work better than chemo? 
  Dr Liz also suggests meaningful, practical steps to reduce the risk of future recurrence, even when the odds feel stacked against you. 
  Let her guide you through your cancer journey with confidence and clarity, and give you the best chance of your cure. 
  For fans of Kelly A. Turner (Radical Hope), James R. Doty (Mind Magic), Jane Mclelland (How to Starve Cancer ...without starving yourself), Deborah James (How to Live When You Could Be Dead), and Helen Bullen (Agnes, Bea, Cancer and Me).

  From the renowned author of A Year in the Maine Woods, the intimate, thoughtful reflections of a lifetime spent observing the natural world. 
   
  For forty years, Bernd Heinrich has been ensconced in the woods of the northern, or boreal, forest, a vast sea of spruce, fir, and larch in the mountains of western Maine. All life confronts vast and occasionally rapid environmental changes, as one day, and one season, is to the next a completely different environment. Heinrich's narrative illuminates the complete experience of his seasonal life―with the ups and downs of not just the leaves and snow, but also the problems, solutions, and frustrations of unblinking immersion in nature. He observes the "common uncommon" of spiders, ants, chestnut trees, porcupines, owls, and mice as his story branches out into five themes: Being, Becoming, Interbeing, Remembering, and Returning. The Common Uncommon is a narrative of small surprises in nature, some delightful and some―brought on by climate change―devastating, all seen through the sharp eye of a world–renowned naturalist.

  Life Earth and Politics - Ideas...

  Science, not speculative philosophy, is the only guide, however imperfect, to the nature of existence. Science culture uses and supports science. The social brain experiences free will and needs religious faith. Empathy is a choice based on intuition. We need a better scientific understanding of dogma and chauvinism, and this book explores these issues. It also describes the Crisis of the Anthropocene, described in under a hundred pages, is a wakeup that needs to overcome ignorance and naïve optimism, and reach our deepest emotions. Topics include climate change, biodiversity, pollutants, population, and political causes behind the collapse. This book also presents data from Internationalcomparisons.org that demonstrates that the US is neither advanced nor a democracy and has failed to deal with guns, reproductive rights, taxation, social welfare, fiscal discipline, and other issues. Even with these already significant problems Americans must face, there is even more: Trumpism and Putinism are existential threats to American freedom and democracy. This book presents a framework for others to act in the time of these issues.

  Demystify AI Decisions and Master Interpretability and Explainability Today
  Book Description
  Interpretability in AI/ML refers to the ability to understand and explain how a model arrives at its predictions. It ensures that humans can follow the model's reasoning, making it easier to debug, validate, and trust.
  Interpretability and Explainability in AI Using Python takes you on a structured journey through interpretability and explainability techniques for both white-box and black-box models.
  You’ll start with foundational concepts in interpretable machine learning, exploring different model types and their transparency levels. As you progress, you’ll dive into post-hoc methods, feature effect analysis, anchors, and counterfactuals—powerful tools to decode complex models. The book also covers explainability in deep learning, including Neural Networks, Transformers, and Large Language Models (LLMs), equipping you with strategies to uncover decision-making patterns in AI systems.
  Through hands-on Python examples, you’ll learn how to apply these techniques in real-world scenarios. By the end, you’ll be well-versed in choosing the right interpretability methods, implementing them efficiently, and ensuring AI models align with ethical and regulatory standards—giving you a competitive edge in the evolving AI landscape.
