Summary

Modern organizations must deliver software faster, ensure platform stability, and adopt AI, all while reducing operational complexity and cost. But fragmented tooling, scaling challenges, and limited developer enablement hinder progress – driving engineering leaders to seek a cohesive strategy for efficiency, resilience, and innovation.
In this book, Dr. Mark Peters and Dr. Gautham Pallapa join forces to resolve these complexities by showing you how to build scalable platforms, operate them efficiently through automation and AI, and optimize software delivery pipelines for continuous value. The chapters cover core principles, including platform architecture, self-service enablement, and developer experience. You’ll explore proven frameworks for cultural transformation, strategic alignment, and continuous improvement, along with 10 bold predictions about the future of platform engineering to help you anticipate trends and lead through change with confidence.
By the end of this book, you’ll be able to design and implement resilient, intelligent platforms, accelerate innovation, and drive measurable business impact, positioning you and your organization as leaders in the next era of platform engineering.

    Millions of Americans suffer from back pain and try numerous remedies to ease their suffering. 
    It's unlikely that many of them have considered sex to ease that aching back. Dr. Michel Rice DC MD aims to change that. In Sexy Back, Rice presents an irreverent, often side-splitting regimen for laying back pain to rest while getting laid. 
    Rest assured—there's no hype here, just a clear explanation of common causes of back pain and a workable program for relief. Remedies involve secret tricks to instantly look and feel sexier, sexercises for your back and core and, while the tone is light and the exercises have cheerily suggestive names, the science behind them is sound and fully explained. 
    Sexy Back is a hands-on list of activities for better back health and pain-free sex. As a Sexy Back reader, you can also consult with Dr. Rice and his Sexy Back training team, receive a signed copy of Sexy Back with a personalized prescription to help you heal back pain (yours or someone else's), and receive a special price on the upcoming online sexercise video streaming program. Join the Sexy Back Club to share your personal challenges and gains on a private or community level. 
    Dr. Michel Rice treated over 15,000 back pain patients before becoming a director of Better Call Doc Clinic and the Ontario Research Medical Group. His focus on the intersection of sex and chronic back pain came to Rice from unsolicited pronouncements from dozens of single lady patients.  
    Alas, their renewed spinal health was the result of their lucky break of having a one-night stand. Nine years later came the birth of a sexy rehab program called Sexy Back.Book details

    In this incredible audiobook, we invite you to learn about the different methods of extraction and analysis of the main cannabinoids for the use of derivatives in the cannabis industry. 
    Currently, about 113 compounds have been isolated from the Cannabis sativa species, among the most important are tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). These phytocannabinoids are mostly present in the form of carboxylic acids and are located in the trichomes of this plant. 
    To identify and characterize the chemical molecules present in cannabis, it is important to know how to select the most appropriate extraction method. This technique depends on parameters such as temperature, agitation speed, process time, particle size, and distribution to achieve the concentration of the different cannabinoids. Likewise, it is necessary to implement an analytical system for the determination of cannabinoids, thus increasing the reliability of the efficacy of the formulated products, whether for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, gastronomic, or textile industry.  
    If you are interested in learning more about the latest techniques for the extraction and analysis of phytocannabinoids, we invite you to listen to this audiobook brought to you by Pharmacology University.

    Trading is the hardest way to make easy money! 
    New traders are often led to believe that trading must be easy, which is true to some extent; it has certainly never been easier to trade. Barriers to entry are low, and you have unlimited earning power. You can trade whenever and wherever you like, using any of the numerous markets that are available to choose from, and you can select a low-cost platform from among the many platforms available. But new traders soon realise that what is generally called ‘common sense’ does not work in trading; what they have been taught – that there is a right way and a wrong way – does not seem to apply to trading. Why? The answer is simple: Our brains are not naturally wired for trading, but they can be rewired. And you will find out how in this book. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced trader, reading Badass Trader can be a valuable way to learn, grow and improve your trading skills, setting you on a path to financial well-being. While both informative and practical, the book will also help to rewire your mind, stacking the odds of trading success in your favour so that you can get profitable quicker.
