  A global exploration of the eight remaining species of bears—and the dangers they face. 
   
   
   
  Bears have always held a central place in our collective memory, from Indigenous folklore and Greek mythology to nineteenth-century fairytales and the modern toy shop. But as humans and bears come into ever-closer contact, our relationship nears a tipping point. Today, most of the eight remaining bear species are threatened with extinction. Some, such as the panda bear and the polar bear, are icons of the natural world; others, such as the spectacled bear and the sloth bear, are far less known. 
   
   
   
  In Eight Bears, journalist Gloria Dickie embarks on a globe-trotting journey to explore each bear's story, whisking listeners from the cloud forests of the Andes to the ice floes of the Arctic; from the jungles of India to the backwoods of the Rocky Mountain West. She meets with key figures on the frontlines of modern conservation efforts—the head of a rescue center for sun and moon bears freed from bile farms, a biologist known as Papa Panda, who has led China's panda-breeding efforts for almost four decades, a conservationist retraining a military radar system to detect and track polar bears near towns—to reveal the unparalleled challenges bears face as they contend with a rapidly changing climate and encroaching human populations.

  A fascinating examination of the search for life in our solar system and beyond!In this intriguing recording, Professor Emeritus Timothy Ferris— one of the world's most respected science writers— explores man's search for life elsewhere in the universe. Ferris combines new discoveries about the origins of life as we know it on Earth with recent revelations about the sun's planets and their moons. Ferris explains why many scientists are convinced that life is abundant throughout the cosmos, and he considers how one day radio telescopes may be used to connect us to an intergalactic Internet and link us to alien civilizations in the far reaches of the universe.
  In the first part— "Are We Alone?— Ferris addresses the origins of life on Earth and traces the search for life in other worlds.
  In the second part— "Is Anybody Listening?" Ferris examines the strategies that are being used to communicate with fellow travelers among the stars.

  3D printing is transforming industries worldwide, and construction is no exception. As housing shortages and high building costs continue to challenge communities, 3D-printed homes offer a promising solution. This technology enables faster, more affordable, and adaptable construction, making homeownership and safe housing accessible to more people. By automating traditional processes, 3D printing redefines what's possible in construction—reducing waste, customizing designs, and speeding up building times. This book explores the groundbreaking impact of 3D printing on housing, highlighting its potential to revolutionize construction, improve affordability, and reshape the future of urban and rural living. 
    
  3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is reshaping the construction industry by introducing innovative approaches to building homes, offices, and infrastructure. Traditionally used in manufacturing and prototyping, 3D printing has now evolved into a reliable construction method that involves layering material to create structures, walls, and entire buildings from digital models. This technology allows construction companies to bypass many of the labor-intensive processes typically associated with conventional building techniques, offering an efficient, cost-effective, and flexible approach to construction. 
    
  In 3D printing for construction, materials like concrete, mortar, and specialized compounds are extruded layer by layer, following a precise digital design that directs robotic arms or large-scale printers. These printers can operate continuously, producing walls, floors, and structural elements at a faster pace than manual construction. As a result, 3D printing not only reduces the time required to build but also significantly decreases labor costs, as fewer workers are needed on-site. Projects that once took months can now be completed in weeks or even days, depending on the scale of the building.

  No need to travel halfway round the globe to spot iconic wildlife – it's right here on our doorstep in the UK and Steve Wright, keen amateur naturalist, travels from the Isle of Man to Norfolk, to the Orkneys, Northern Ireland and everywhere in-between on his various short holiday expeditions, clutching his specific wildlife wish-list for each trip.  
  The result is an inspiring and engaging diary of his personal encounters with white-tailed eagles, otters, bottlenose dolphins, fulmars, puffins, osprey, sand lizards, even red-necked wallabies. And the characters he meets on the way. He hears snipe drumming, watches a shrew in Wales, admires pilot whales off Lewis.  
  Steve's wildlife travel diaries give excellent practical tips, such as bird-hide etiquette, how to identify birds on the wing, how to consult local wildlife rangers about what might be spotted on each outing and where to find that species.  
  But most importantly his highly-readable wildlife travels are a call to others to book themselves in to pubs and small hotels the length and breadth of Britain and follow his example, for a series of fun British wildlife safaris.
