Coroutines and flows are the new recommended way for developers to carry out asynchronous programming in Android using simple, modern, and testable code. This book will teach you how coroutines and flows work and how to use them in building Android applications, along with helping you to develop modern Android applications with asynchronous programming using real data.
The book begins by showing you how to create and handle Kotlin coroutines on Android. You’ll explore asynchronous programming in Kotlin, and understand how to test Kotlin coroutines. Next, you'll learn about Kotlin flows on Android, and have a closer look at using Kotlin flows by getting to grips with handling flow cancellations and exceptions and testing the flows.
By the end of this book, you'll have the skills you need to build high-quality and maintainable Android applications using coroutines and flows.

    Cannabis has been used as a medicinal plant for thousands of years. Moreover, it has been closely linked to mankind because of its multiple uses, which range from planting products to the manufacture of highly resistant materials such as textiles, paper, and ropes. In ancient times, there was great interest in its cultivation due to its magnificent properties and the diverse applications of its derivatives. 
With this audiobook, you will discover how the cannabis plant has evolved. You will also learn how generational changes in the plant's morphological and genetic characteristics brought forth the unique varieties used today in the therapeutic, recreational, or industrial fields.                                                  
You will also learn how science classifies the plant through taxonomy. A scientific discipline related to a system used to define and name groups of biological organisms based on shared morphological and genetic characteristics; thus learning the availability of the plants of this wonderful genus. You will be able to take a brief look at its genetics. This will let you understand more clearly all the possibilities available when choosing among so many varieties the most suitable one for a particular objective. 
This audiobook on the science of cannabis encompasses all the information that will facilitate your entry into the industry, by identifying ideal and developing strategies to enhance the plant's potential and of its derivatives, learning how each grower contributes to this species' evolution. Pharmacology University tells you the basic principles you should know to get the most out of the benefits of this wonderful plant.

    The information in this ebook on various aspects of using the Internet to your advantage is organised into 20 chapters of about 500-600 words each. 
I hope that it will interest those who are hoping to make money on line. In fact, the number of people trying to make (some extra) money online has skyrocketed over the last ten or twelve years, but especially since the Covid-19 lockdowns. 
Not everything can be blamed on Covid-19 though. Britain, for example, has suffered twelve years of ‘austerity’ brought in by a government that seems no longer to care about the electorate. First they blamed the banking crisis; then the influx of foreign labour; then Covid; and now Brexit and the war in the Ukraine. No doubt you have heard similar excuses where you live. Anyway, the result has been exorbitant inflation and a reduction in wages, and that has led to enterprising people trying improve their situation by working online. This book is for you. I hope that it helps.

    The great auk is one of the most tragic and documented examples of extinction. A flightless bird that bred primarily on the remote islands of the North Atlantic, the last of its kind were killed in Iceland in 1844. Gísli Pálsson draws on firsthand accounts from the Icelanders who hunted the last great auks to bring to life a bygone age of Victorian scientific exploration while offering vital insights into the extinction of species. 
 
 
 
Pálsson vividly recounts how British ornithologists John Wolley and Alfred Newton set out for Iceland to collect specimens only to discover that the great auks were already gone. At the time, the Victorian world viewed extinction as an impossibility or trivialized it as a natural phenomenon. Pálsson chronicles how Wolley and Newton documented the fate of the last birds through interviews with the men who killed them, and how the naturalists' Icelandic journey opened their eyes to the disappearance of species as a subject of scientific concern—and as something that could be caused by humans. 
 
 
 
Blending a richly evocative narrative with rare, unpublished material as well as insights from ornithology, anthropology, and Pálsson's own North Atlantic travels, The Last of Its Kind reveals how the saga of the great auk opens a window onto the human causes of mass extinction.

    '. . . there is a quiet here that doesn't exist on land, a fluid suspension that reminds me that humans were never meant to be so rigid, so fixed in place. In the sea, we are both vulnerable and free . . .'
Deep Blue is a love letter to the sea, exploring humans' deep connection with the ocean and the bliss of swimming, diving, dipping and simply being in salt water.
Join Veruska De Vita, a learner free diver and open-water swimmer, as she delves into why the ocean calls to us. Along the way she talks to those who find healing and wellness in swimming groups and cold-water immersion, scientists who study complex marine environments, elite athletes who swim super-human distances along our coasts and free divers who plumb the depths with one breath.
Water is primordial. It gives life. It represents hope and renewal. This book is not only for sea worshippers. It promises to inspire everyone to jump with joy into the waves – and offers reflections on our intimate relationship with the sea, which supports life on earth and requests that we respect it.

    Written by Santiago Barcón, who has dedicated his professional life to becoming an ever-improving professional and training others, always sharing his experiences and knowledge with great generosity.

This enjoyable and useful work is destined to become a reference book for engineers and future professionals in this field. It can be applied to all professions, regardless of the discipline in which the individual works; they will dignify them and seek to create a better world where respect for others and for oneself prevails.

The 100 pieces of advice offered in the book can be grouped into the following topics: skills and values, personal and professional development, and professional practice. In addition to explaining them, it presents real-life examples that illustrate the importance of what is stated.

All of these topics highlight the importance of not only having technical knowledge, years of experience, and constant updating, but also developing personal and professional skills on a daily basis. Being open to learning from others, recognizing the work of others, and correcting mistakes, among others, are essential.

The author encourages readers to consistently practice what is taught in the book so that it becomes deeply rooted and becomes a natural habit.
