Sinopse

Mysterious Lost Objects explores the intriguing world of items vanished from history, examining their impact on our understanding of the past. From lost treasures to vanished inventions and missing artifacts, the book investigates the circumstances surrounding their disappearance and the void they've left in our collective knowledge. One might be surprised to learn about the Amber Room, a chamber of unparalleled beauty that disappeared during World War II, or the secrets behind Damascus steel, a metalworking technique lost to time. These disappearances prompt us to question established narratives and re-evaluate historical assumptions.

 
The book delves into three core themes, starting with lost treasures like Confederate gold, then shifting to vanished inventions such as Greek Fire, and finally analyzing missing artifacts like the Ark of the Covenant. Each section explores the historical context, known whereabouts, and theories surrounding their disappearances. By drawing upon historical sources, archaeological findings, and technological analyses, Mysterious Lost Objects offers a unique lens through which to examine human history and highlights the enduring fascination with things that are missing.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful general-purpose technology that is reshaping the modern economy, but misperceptions about AI stand in the way of harnessing it for the betterment of humanity. In Thrive, Ravi Bapna and Anindya Ghose counter the backlash by showcasing how AI is positively influencing the aspects of our daily lives that we care about most: our health and wellness, relationships, education, the workplace, and domestic life. In the process the authors help explain the underlying technology and give people the agency they need to shape the debate around how we should regulate AI to maximize its benefits and minimize its risks. 
     
     
     
    Bringing over two decades of experience with cutting-edge research, consulting, executive coaching, and advising to bear on the subject, Bapna and Ghose demystify the technology of AI itself. They offer a novel "House of AI" framework that encompasses traditional analytics, generative AI, and fair and ethical deployment of AI. Using examples from everyday life, they showcase how the modern AI-powered ecosystem fundamentally improves the emotional, physical, and material well-being of regular people across the globe. Thrive's mission is to educate the public about AI, shape realistic expectations, and foster informed discussions about a fast-emerging AI-shaped society.

    Still struggling to help your ADHD child? 
    Do you see any or many of these signs and symptoms of ADHD in your child? 
    - Loses important things 
    - Disorganized 
    - Distracted 
    - No follow-through 
    - Avoids mental effort 
    - Doesn't listen 
    - Inattentive 
    - Careless 
    - Spacey 
    - Forgetful 
    - Poor focus 
    If you’re seeing more than a handful of these characteristics, you can’t ignore them.  
    These behaviors indicate a child who is not fully present and not able to embrace the joy available in life. With these behaviors, often they find it impossible to interact in a cooperative, productive, and fulfilling way with other people. They don’t do as well in school, and this affects their future career possibilities. 
    When your child acts up with the symptoms of ADHD, it can put you right on your “last nerve,” and you want a solution. But you’re also recognizing that simply giving your child a pill every day may not be the best or most responsible thing to do. 
    Sure, you can get specialized testing and simply “get a pill” 
    OR 
    You can be a real parent and learn the true MEANING of their behavior, as well as what you can do to help. 
    There IS a Solution to Help a Child with ADHD without Medication 
    I’m here to tell you that there IS a solution for the symptoms you’re seeing in your child. And we’re not talking about controlling or minimizing the symptoms of ADHD. That’s not nearly enough. 
    We’re talking about a real transformation where your child becomes truly happy, fulfilled, responsible, and, well, a human being again - almost always without the use of medications, which have a serious list of possible long-term side effects 
    You can do this, so let's get started.

    During twenty-five years, Javier Vaquero has traveled the world accompanied by three guide dogs: Keo, Foxi and Axel. This book is the story of that shared life. 
    It is not a manual or a technical document. It is a real story written from the inside, with everything that it means to depend on an animal to move through the world with freedom: the learning process, the trust built step by step, the extraordinary and painful moments, and that feeling that only those who have lived it can understand: that when you walk alongside your guide dog you are not a blind person. You flow. 
    My Four-Legged Eyes is written for those who are thinking about taking the step and want to know what to really expect. For those who live with a guide dog user and want to understand their world. For those who love animals and know that the relationship between a human being and their dog can be something that has no easy name in any language. And for anyone who has ever lost someone who occupied a place that no one else can fill. 
    A story about blindness, about freedom, and about three dogs who were much more than a pair of eyes

    Being a foster parent is hard. Journey through Scripture with a mom who gets it, and find encouragement, direction, and hope for your calling. 
     
    Though the words foster care are not in the Bible, the call for God's people to care for the vulnerable is clear throughout all of Scripture. Foster parents--filled with faith and love and purpose--follow this call into caring for vulnerable kids and families. Too often, these same foster parents find themselves feeling overwhelmed, confused, and emptied--in need of being refreshed and encouraged for the day to come.  
     
    With sixty devotions written especially for foster parents by a foster parent, Filled offers life-giving promises and hope-filled truths specific to the unique joys and challenges faced by those who open their homes and hearts to kids.  
     
    Each reading includes: 
     
    ● a Scripture passage that provides encouragement, teaching, or guidance 
    ● an explanation of the biblical text 
    ● a real-life anecdote from the author's experience as a foster parent 
    ● suggestions for continued reading
