Summary

Lost Mediterranean Cities explores submerged urban landscapes in the Mediterranean, offering unique insights into history, Earth sciences, and geography. It reveals how geological events, such as sea-level changes and seismic activity, caused cities to sink, impacting human settlements. Marine archaeology uncovers architectural remains and artifacts, shedding light on daily life and cultural practices. These submerged sites provide critical lessons about resilience, adaptation, and environmental change, challenging traditional historical narratives.

 
The book examines specific case studies like Pavlopetri, Atlit-Yam, and Baia, detailing their histories, submersion causes, and archaeological discoveries. Advanced technologies, including sonar and 3D modeling, aid exploration and documentation efforts to preserve underwater cultural heritage. By combining archaeological data with geological analyses, Lost Mediterranean Cities uncovers the interplay between human societies and their environment.

    A fully updated new edition of David Attenborough’s bestselling classic. 
BIRDS. 11,000 species, the most widespread of all animals: on icebergs, in the Sahara or under the sea, at home in our gardens or flying for over a year at a time. Earthbound, we can only look and listen, enjoying their lightness, freedom and richness of plumage and song. 
David Attenborough has been watching and learning all his life. His classic book, now fully updated with the latest discoveries in ornithology, is a brilliant introduction to bird behaviours around the world: what they do and why they do it. He looks at each step in birds' lives and the problems they have to solve: learning to fly; finding food; communicating; mating and caring for nests, eggs and young; migrating; facing dangers and surviving harsh conditions. 
Sir David has no equal in helping others to learn and making it exciting. His curiosity and enjoyment are infectious. He shows the lifelong pleasure that birds around us offer, and how much we miss if unaware of them. 
Attenborough, the Sunday Times bestselling author, delves into the science of birdwatching, offering readers a comprehensive guide to understanding the natural world. His passion for zoology and ecology is palpable, making this non-fiction book a captivating read for anyone interested in nature and its history. 
For fans of David Allen Sibley (Birds of Instagram), Joshua Foer (Atlas Obscura, 2nd Edition), Steve Brusatte (The Rise and Reign of the Mammals), Martin Stevens (Sensory Ecology, Behaviour, and Evolution), and Jonnie Hughes (Earthshot).

    The nerd's ultimate guide for turning technical knowledge into compelling and effective messaging 
Every tech founder who tries to get the message out about their product knows the moment they've lost their audience. Blank stares come from the people you need most to buy into your message or understand your concepts. Without the ability to effectively explain technical concepts to a nontechnical audience, data points and all your knowledge become a hindrance instead of a relevant message. Even when you nail every technical concept in your pitch, if your messaging isn't delivered in a way that becomes relevant to the listener, they won't pick up what you're putting down. 
For two decades, MessageSpecs Consulting founder Joel Benge has been helping tech nerds ditch boring IT pitches in favor of authentic people-first messaging without getting caught in jargon. Combining classical philosophy and modern neuroscience, Be a Nerd That Talks Good guides tech nerds on how to tell their story and connect with audiences. Inspired by Aristotle's rhetoric, Joel uses his MessageSpecs heart, head, and gut model to teach you how to balance your messaging and use emotion, logic, and credibility to get noticed, be understood, and accomplish goals. 
If you're a tech nerd ready to go from oversharing and underselling your tech to communicating with confidence, Be a Nerd That Talks Good bridges the gap between deep technical knowledge and clear, effective messaging, turning those blank stares into blank checks.
