Summary

Oxygen Planets explores the exciting search for life beyond Earth by focusing on exoplanets with oxygen-rich atmospheres. While oxygen is often seen as a sign of life, this book investigates how oxygen can also be created through non-biological processes, like the splitting of water molecules by starlight, emphasizing the need to understand these abiotic sources to avoid misinterpreting data. The book highlights the revolution in exoplanet characterization made possible by advanced telescopes, which allows scientists to analyze exoplanet atmospheres and assess their potential for habitability. This book emphasizes a comprehensive approach to assessing exoplanet habitability, advocating for the integration of planetary science, biology, and astrophysics. It examines the role of oxygen in Earth's history and explores various non-biological mechanisms that could lead to oxygen accumulation on other planets. By considering geological, chemical, and atmospheric factors, Oxygen Planets aims to provide a more nuanced understanding of the potential for life on exoplanets. The book begins with an overview of exoplanet detection and characterization techniques before delving into the complexities of oxygen as a biosignature. It proceeds to discuss abiotic oxygen sources and concludes by exploring the implications for future space exploration missions, focusing on how understanding abiotic sources of oxygen is crucial for assessing the habitability of planets and guiding the search for extraterrestrial life.

    Follow Hannah Dale's deeply personal journey as she returns her Lincolnshire farm to nature, celebrating the return of an astonishing variety of wildlife.
    Hannah Dale, the artist and founder of the award-winning nature-centric gift company Wrendale Designs, takes you through a year on her farm in rural Lincolnshire where, alongside her husband, she has undertaken an ambitious rewilding project. Together, they are attempting to return the land to nature and increase the number of species their land is able to support.
    A Wilding Year explores how one family have been able to embrace the beauty to be found in untidy landscapes, heralding the return of skylarks, meadow pipits, hobbies, polecats and many more species to their farm. The land was originally claimed from marshy wetlands, and leaning into the land's natural inclination to be wet has also yielded amazing ponds and pond life.
    This rewilding journey has also provided Hannah with new sources of inspiration for her paintings. A Wilding Year is both a journal and a sketchbook, in which Hannah keeps a visual record of the incredible variety of species she finds on the farm.
    This fascinating account of a year spent in nature brings to life the beauty and power of wildlife in every season.

    From an artist and TikTok creator, a critical look at the controversial app and its effect on cultural heritage, artificial intelligence, community organizing, and digital censorship. In Revolutionary Algorithms, Torey Akers approaches TikTok with a deep understanding of the app, as both a prolific creator and consumer of its content. In these essays, she interrogates how the TikTok ban and the multiple genocides happening around the world are deeply intertwined; how the app can empower creators, amplify social movements, and document abuses of power. She addresses the good, bad, and sometimes uncanny parts of maneuvering and communicating in a digital space.  As a new era of social media looms, Akers makes the case for techno-progressivism, looking toward a future where TikTok continues to connect, inspire, and create space for more intersectionality, equity, and joy.

    Twenty-five form fields. To buy one jar of peanut butter. 
    That store was paying for ads. The ads worked fine. The store didn't. 
    Chris Barin spent five years running an online food brand in Romania and took it to about EUR 700,000 a year. Almost all of the growth came from fixing what happened after the click, not from finding a cleverer ad. 
    This is what he checks first, in order. 
    Inside: 
    • Checkout and forms, and which fields are quietly costing you orders 
    • Product pages that answer the question blocking the sale 
    • Photos and descriptions that sell instead of decorate 
    • Mobile, where most of your traffic already is 
    • Page speed, because you already paid for that click 
    • Reviews, urgency, bundles and free-shipping thresholds used honestly 
    • What to measure, and what to ignore 
    He is blunt about the things that don't work. The diagnostic scores he chased for five years and what they were actually worth. Why a performance marketing agency cannot rescue a broken store. When you need a coder and when AI is enough. 
    No growth hacks, no case studies with the numbers removed. Just the order of operations for a store that is already buying traffic and cannot get its conversion rate to move. 
    Find the biggest leak. Fix that one. Then find the next. 
    Closes with a store audit and a checklist you can run this week.
