  Hybrid cars, and indeed, all electric vehicles are playing a rôle in the salvation of the planet’s eco-system. At least, in respect to the world supporting human life. However, hybrid cars will one day be replaced by vehicles that use no irreplaceable energy at at all, once the technology is there. It is likely that there will be at least two such power sources in the near future: electricity and hydrogen – but who knows what else will be available? 
  Hybrid and electric cars are revolutionizing the automotive landscape, offering a myriad of advantages that extend beyond the traditional internal combustion engine. One of the primary benefits is environmental sustainability. Electric cars produce zero tailpipe emissions, significantly reducing air pollution and carbon footprint. As the world grapples with climate change, the shift towards electric vehicles is a crucial step in mitigating environmental impact. 
  Furthermore, these vehicles contribute to energy efficiency. Hybrid cars combine an internal combustion engine with an electric motor, optimizing fuel consumption and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Electric cars, relying solely on electric power, boast high energy efficiency and cost savings over time. With advancements in battery technology, electric cars now offer extended ranges and faster charging times, addressing concerns about range anxiety. 
  Beyond environmental and economic advantages, hybrid and electric cars provide a smoother and quieter driving experience. The instant torque delivery in electric motors enhances acceleration, making these vehicles not only eco-friendly but also performance-oriented. As governments worldwide incentivise the adoption of cleaner technologies, the advantages of hybrid and electric cars position them as the driving force in the future of sustainable and efficient transportation.

  This beloved bestseller-over 180,000 copies sold-has helped caregivers worldwide keep themselves emotionally, psychologically, spiritually, and physically healthy in the face of the sometimes overwhelming traumas they confront every day. 
   
  A longtime trauma worker, Laura van Dernoot Lipsky offers a deep and empathetic survey of the often-unrecognized toll taken on those working to make the world a better place. We may feel tired, cynical, or numb or like we can never do enough. These, and other symptoms, affect us individually and collectively, sapping the energy and effectiveness we so desperately need if we are to benefit humankind, other living things, and the planet itself. 
   
  In Trauma Stewardship, we are called to meet these challenges in an intentional way. Lipsky offers a variety of simple and profound practices, drawn from modern psychology and a range of spiritual traditions, that enable us to look carefully at our reactions and motivations and discover new sources of energy and renewal. She includes interviews with successful trauma stewards from different walks of life and even uses New Yorker cartoons to illustrate her points. 
   
  "We can do meaningful work in a way that works for us and for those we serve," Lipsky writes. "Taking care of ourselves while taking care of others allows us to contribute to our societies with such impact that we will leave a legacy informed by our deepest wisdom and greatest gifts instead of burdened by our struggles and despair."

  Bond—James Bond. In the 80s and 90s, the debonair superspy's games failed to live up to the giddy thrills of his films. That all changed when British studio Rare unleashed GoldenEye 007 in 1997. In basements and college dorms across the world, friends bumped shoulders while shooting, knifing, exploding, and slapping each other's digital faces in the Nintendo 64 game that would redefine the modern first-person shooter genre and become the most badass party game of its generation. 
   
   
    
  But GoldenEye's success was far from a sure thing. For years of development, GoldenEye's team of rookie developers were shooting in the dark with no sense of what the N64 or its controller would be like, and the game's relentless violence horrified higher-ups at squeaky clean Nintendo. As development lagged far behind the debut of the tie-in film GoldenEye, the game nearly came out an entire Bond movie too late. 
   
   
    
  Through extensive interviews with GoldenEye's creators, writer and scholar Alyse Knorr traces the story of how this unlikely licensed game reinvigorated a franchise and a genre. Learn all the stories behind how this iconic title was developed, and why GoldenEye 007 has continued to kick the living daylights out of every other Bond game since.

  Tech Monopoly - (The MIT Press...

  In recent years, the astronomical rise of tech giants like Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft has been criticized as anticompetitive, and many have wondered if antitrust law can help protect workers and consumers. In Tech Monopoly, Herbert Hovenkamp explores competition problems in a wide range of high-tech firms—from those that sell purely digital products, such as video streaming, search, software, or email services, to others that sell more traditional "tactile" products, such as hardware, clothing, groceries, or rides. He offers a realistic look at the powers and limitations of antitrust law in tech markets with an assessment that is as comprehensive as it is accessible. 
   
   
   
  After a general introduction to antitrust law, Tech Monopoly considers how competitive harm should be assessed in these markets. Then Hovenkamp looks at the role of large digital platforms, including Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft, and considers whether their size alone is an antitrust problem or if the concern should be limited to market power. Finally, the author addresses the very difficult problem of remedies. Should we "break up" big tech, and if so, how? What kind of breakup of these firms would make users or others better off? And if breakups are not the only possible antitrust fix, are there more effective and less disruptive alternatives?
