    What you feed the soil, you 
    feed yourself! 
    In his riveting new book, Soil is Not A Dirty Word, Craig Castree shares 
    urgent insights into the symbiotic relationships between plants and the 
    microscopic worlds of bacteria and fungi that sustain them. This book will 
    transform the way you see the ground beneath your feet. 
    During his three-year dive down the rabbit hole to discover the shocking 
    truths hidden in soil, Castree discovered that our understanding of soil has 
    been fundamentally flawed for over 80 years. 
    While soil might not be the typical topic of conversation, it’s time it became 
    a priority. Modern agricultural practices promised increased productivity 
    but have instead led to diminishing returns. Our topsoil—the thin layer 
    that nourishes the planet—erodes at an alarming rate, and autoimmune 
    diseases rise as the soil microbiome becomes more disconnected from 
    plant and human microbiomes. 
    Soil is Not A Dirty Word goes beyond just sounding the alarm, it offers a 
    solution after solution to the problems most of us never knew we had with 
    soil. With a regenerative approach that revitalises the soil, reduces reliance 
    on chemical inputs, and restores its nutrient density, Castree’s strategies 
    promise to revolutionise edible gardening, farming, and growing food plants. 
    This isn’t just a manual for gardeners and farmers—this is a call to action for 
    anyone concerned about our planet’s future, our health, and the legacy we 
    leave for generations to come.

    Genetics - The Blueprint of Life...

    Genetics is the branch of biology that focuses on the study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics. It seeks to understand how traits are passed down from parents to offspring and how these traits are expressed in living organisms. At the core of genetics lies the concept of genes, which are segments of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) that contain the instructions for the development and functioning of organisms. These instructions guide the creation of proteins, which carry out the majority of biological functions necessary for life. 
      
    Each organism's genetic material is contained within its cells, and it is organized into structures called chromosomes. In humans, for example, there are 23 pairs of chromosomes, with one set inherited from each parent. Within these chromosomes are thousands of genes, each responsible for specific traits. These traits can range from eye color and blood type to more complex characteristics like susceptibility to certain diseases. While many traits are inherited in a predictable manner, some can be influenced by environmental factors or interactions between multiple genes. 
      
    The study of genetics dates back to the mid-1800s with the work of Gregor Mendel, who is often considered the father of modern genetics. Through his experiments with pea plants, Mendel established the basic principles of inheritance, including the ideas of dominant and recessive traits. His work laid the foundation for understanding how traits are inherited in predictable patterns, although the molecular mechanisms were not fully understood at the time.

    The study of geometry is at least 2500 years old, and it is within this field that the concept of mathematical proof—deductive reasoning from a set of axioms—first arose. To this day geometry remains a very active area of research in mathematics. 
     
     
     
    This Very Short Introduction covers the areas of mathematics falling under geometry, starting with topics such as Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries, and ranging to curved spaces, projective geometry in Renaissance art, and geometry of space-time inside a black hole. Starting from the basics, Maciej Dunajski proceeds from concrete examples (of mathematical objects like Platonic solids, or theorems like the Pythagorean theorem) to general principles. Throughout, he outlines the role geometry plays in the broader context of science and art.

    Every Last Fish - A Deep Dive...

    Slippery, wet, and strange: Fish can be easier to think of as food than as fellow animals. But what do we know about these creatures we meet on our dinner table and how they got there? But with warming oceans, diminishing fish stocks, and questions about fish farming practices, where will the fish come from? 
     
    In Every Last Fish, Rose George dives into these questions by exploring the vast industries that support our appetite for fish sticks and salmon burgers, and the colossal illegal fishing trade whose practices and standards are unmonitored and often dangerous. Journeying to the bottom of the ocean and back, she examines the machinations of this $200 billion food system―one that's growing rapidly even as fish populations disappear. 
     
    Along the way, George introduces us to the people on the front lines of fishes and fishing: fishermen, divers, marine biologists, fish fryers, and fishwives. Her journey ends at the fish counter, with guidance for listeners looking to make better choices, both for the ocean's health and their own. 
     
    Ranging from Alaska to the United Kingdom to Senegal and beyond, Every Last Fish is an unforgettable trip through the ocean's inhabitants and workers.
