  "Essential reading for lovers of the Great outdoors" —Roger Cox, Scotsman magazine 
   
   
   
  Longlisted for the 2022 Highland Book Prize 
   
   
   
  In 2019, Jenna Watt took part in the stalking of a hind on the vast Highland estate of Corrour: part of an immersive attempt to understand the ideas that lie behind 'rewilding', and what it means emotionally and physically to participate in Scotland's deer cull. Piece by piece and chapter by chapter she unravels the story of that one day spent hunting the hind, interlaced with her discovery that her ancestors were deer stalkers, game keepers, and ghillies on a Highland estate, who once took part in increasingly controversial land practices like muirburn and species persecution. 
   
   
   
  This exploration leads her into the complex and often conflict-ridden world of the rewilding movement. 
   
   
   
  In the process, Jenna comes to better understand the meaning of 'wildness', the shifting baselines of 'rewilding', and, in a world beset by climate change and species extinction, how to cope, both as an individual and as a society, with the concept of ecological grief.

  The world's oceans are changing at a drastic pace. In response, the people who know the ocean most intimately are taking action for the sake of our shared future. Community scientists track species in California tidepools. Researchers dive into the waters around Sydney to replant kelp forests. Scientists and First Nations communities collaborate to restore clam gardens in the Pacific Northwest. 
   
   
   
  In At Every Depth, the oceanographer Tessa Hill and the science journalist Eric Simons profile these and other efforts to understand and protect marine environments, taking listeners to habitats from shallow tidepools to the deep sea. They delve into the many human connections to the ocean—how people live with and make their living from the waters—journeying to places as far-flung as coral reefs, the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, and the Arctic and Antarctic poles. At Every Depth shares the stories of people from all walks of life, including scientists, coastal community members, Indigenous people, shellfish farmers, and fisheries workers. It brings together varied viewpoints, showing how scientists' research and local and Indigenous knowledge can complement each other to inform a more sustainable future. This book offers a narrative perspective on the changing oceans, letting us see how our relationships to the oceans are changing too.

  In today's interconnected world, technology has become the backbone of our daily lives, reshaping how we communicate, work, shop, and even socialize. The digital age has brought immense progress, opening up unprecedented opportunities for individuals and businesses alike. However, with these advancements come new challenges, particularly the growing threat of cybercrime. As we rely more heavily on the internet for both personal and professional activities, the vulnerability of our digital infrastructure has become a pressing concern. 
    
  Cybersecurity is no longer a niche concern for IT professionals but a critical issue that impacts everyone. From personal data breaches to large-scale corporate hacks, the risks of cyber attacks are more real and damaging than ever. Hackers, cybercriminals, and even state-sponsored entities have the ability to infiltrate systems, steal sensitive data, and disrupt critical services. The consequences of these actions can range from financial loss to the erosion of privacy, and in some cases, even national security threats. 
    
  The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the growing adoption of artificial intelligence and cloud computing have only heightened the complexity of cybersecurity. As we continue to digitize more aspects of our lives, the attack surface—the points where cybercriminals can strike—has expanded significantly. The very technologies designed to improve our lives also provide new avenues for malicious actors to exploit. The security of everything from smartphones to medical devices, self-driving cars, and cloud storage systems is now in question.
