  What appeals to you about beekeeping? Is it the prospect of producing your own honey and having the delicious natural product fresh on your breakfast table every morning? Or is it the fascination for the organism "bee", which stands out as a masterpiece of evolution? Perhaps it is a mixture of both.
  
  When you hold this book in your hands, you have an exciting journey ahead of you! Perhaps the first bees are already buzzing in your garden and flying from the hive to collect plentiful honey. Or maybe you're just toying with the idea of eventually acquiring a colony.
  
  This book provides you with a solid basic knowledge about beekeeping and the tasks involved, about honey extraction and processing, and ultimately, of course, about the honey bee.

  Kobuk the Destroyer - And Other...

  Alex Davies

  An exuberant exploration of why the stuff we use (mostly) works—and a celebration of the unsung engineers who ensure it does. 
    
  When a manufacturer offers a 10,000-mile warranty on a car or slaps a “bear-resistant” label on a camping cooler, what do we know about how trustworthy that promise is, and how it’s backed up? For the cooler, it’s Kobuk the Destroyer, the fiercest member of the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee’s panel of product-testing bears: Gifted at cracking locks and foiling manufacturers, Kobuk and his fellow bears play a crucial role in keeping us (and our snacks) safe. For everything else—as journalist Alex Davies reveals in this freewheeling tour of the hidden work that keeps the modern world going, safely and dependably—we have test engineers, who imagine how anything and everything could go wrong, and fight back.  
    
  From echo-proof chambers to Formula 1 wind tunnels to airplane hangars turned torture labs, Davies takes readers behind the scenes of a workforce that combats contingency with equal parts analytical rigor and wild imagination. Armed with sixty-foot cannons that fire frozen chickens into jet engines, rocket sleds so fast they knock fillings out of teeth, and Lazy Susans for tasting hundreds of cups of tea a day, test engineers break it so you can buy it. 
    
  But failure is a stubborn opponent: The tsunami will overtop the dam, the chatbot will give bad advice, the bear will eat your sandwich. Test engineers don’t just prevent disaster; they limit its fallout and make peace with its reality by balancing risk against reward. In an age of climate crisis, run-amok tech, and eroding trust in public institutions, knowing how they do it—and how we might do the same—is more valuable than ever before.  
    
  Brimming with humor and insight, Kobuk the Destroyer is a celebration of human ingenuity and a deeply human story about uncertainty, resilience, and the art of making a fragile world a little more reliable. 
    
  "[H]ighly entertaining. … Kobuk the Destroyer will teach you to anticipate problems and protect your plans … just like the professionals do—or else!"—Janelle Shane, author of You Look Like a Thing and I Love You

  The Age of Abundance - AI and...

  Leandro Maya

  What happens to society when machines can do almost everything, and most people no longer need to work? 
  The Age of Abundance is not a book about robots taking jobs. It is a book about what comes after. Drawing on economics, history, and decades of experience at the intersection of finance and technology, Leandro Maya argues that humanity is approaching a transformation unlike anything in recorded history, one that promises extraordinary wealth and devastating disruption in equal measure. 
  At the center of this transformation are two problems that no one is talking about. The ladder problem: automation is eliminating the entry-level positions that have always served as the first rung of career development, cutting off the path before millions of people ever get to climb it. And the purpose problem: when work becomes optional, what gives life meaning? 
  Neither blindly optimistic nor needlessly alarming, The Age of Abundance charts a more honest and more human path through the economic revolution already underway, one that finance professionals, business leaders, and curious minds cannot afford to ignore.

Over the next two years, John raised the kit, whom he nicknamed "BK," and prepared him for release back into the wild. During that time, John and BK developed a special and unique bond, which John documented in a daily diary. That diary became the basis for Bringing Up Beaver, a lively and engaging account of one human's relationship with a wild animal.Bringing Up Beaver is more than just a feel-good story about human encounters with nature. Full of fascinating observations about beaver behavior and biology, Bringing Up Beaver also documents the unique challenges and obstacles to be faced and overcome in rehabbing a wild beaver kit. Populating the story are plenty of other wild creatures that John encountered in the course of his rehab, including other beavers—one of whom became BK's mate—as well as hawks, owls, mink, and weasels. For anyone who has been charmed by a beaver's smile or enjoyed books like Fox and I and Eager, Bringing Up Beaver is a must-listen that will give us a new perspective on the wildlife and nature that exists all around us.
