  In this book, Eve O. Schaub, humorist and stunt memoirist extraordinaire, tackles her most difficult challenge to date: garbage. Convincing her husband and two daughters to go along with her, Schaub attempts the seemingly impossible: living in the modern world without creating any trash at all—for an entire year and, as it turns out, during a pandemic. In the process, Schaub learns some startling things: that modern recycling is broken and single stream recycling is a lie, that flushable wipes aren’t flushable and compostables aren’t compostable, and that plastic drives climate change, fosters racism, and is poisoning the environment and our bodies at alarming rates, as microplastics are being found everywhere, from the top of Mount Everest to the placenta of unborn babies. If you’ve ever thought twice about that plastic straw in your drink, you’re gonna wanna read this book.

  Discover the Future of Data 
  We live in a world overflowing with information. Every second, new data is created from our phones, computers, cars, and even household appliances. But the old tools we use to understand this data are falling behind. Quantum Analytics takes you on a journey into a new way of thinking, where strange but powerful ideas from quantum theory help us see patterns, make smarter choices, and understand complex problems. 
  From Classical to Quantum Thinking 
  Classical analytics depends on clear, simple answers. But the world isn’t simple anymore. Quantum ideas such as superposition, entanglement, and uncertainty allow us to hold many possibilities at once, see hidden connections, and even understand how our focus can change outcomes. Instead of being limited to straight-line logic, we learn to explore data as a living, changing web of information. 
  Tools for Real-World Challenges 
  This audiobook shows how quantum thinking can solve problems in business, science, medicine, and daily life. From managing traffic in busy cities to protecting personal privacy with quantum encryption, from modeling the spread of disease to building smarter machine learning systems, the applications are endless. Quantum analytics is not just about new machines. It is about a new mindset that helps us work with uncertainty instead of fearing it. 
  Why This Book Matters 
  You do not need to be a scientist to understand or use these ideas. Quantum Analytics makes complex ideas simple and clear, inviting you to see the world in new ways. You will discover how quantum theory reshapes decision-making, security, and even creativity. This audiobook is about more than data. It is about thinking differently, asking deeper questions, and opening doors to possibilities that classical methods miss. 
  Take this journey into the heart of quantum thinking and see how it can transform the way you understand information, make choices, and imagine the future.

  Exobiology - Life Beyond Earth

  The origins of life on Earth remain one of the most profound scientific mysteries. While no definitive answer exists, several compelling theories attempt to explain how life first emerged from non-living matter. Understanding these origins is crucial to the study of exobiology, as it provides insight into how life might arise elsewhere in the universe. 
  One widely accepted hypothesis is abiogenesis, which suggests that life arose from simple organic compounds through natural chemical processes. The famous Miller-Urey experiment in 1953 demonstrated that amino acids, the building blocks of life, could form under conditions similar to those of early Earth. These experiments, combined with discoveries of organic molecules in space, suggest that life’s precursors may have been abundant in the early solar system. 
  The conditions on early Earth were vastly different from today. Around 4 billion years ago, the planet was a harsh, volcanic world with a thick atmosphere composed of methane, ammonia, hydrogen, and water vapor. Lightning, ultraviolet radiation, and hydrothermal vents may have provided the necessary energy to drive complex chemical reactions, leading to the formation of self-replicating molecules like RNA. The RNA world hypothesis proposes that RNA, due to its ability to both store genetic information and catalyze chemical reactions, was a key player in the transition from simple molecules to living cells.

  Secularity and Science - What...

  Do scientists see conflict between science and faith? Which cultural factors shape the attitudes of scientists toward religion? Can scientists help show us a way to build collaboration between scientific and religious communities, if such collaborations are even possible? 
   
    
   
  To answer these questions and more, the authors of Secularity and Science: What Scientists Around the World Really Think About Religion completed the most comprehensive international study of scientists' attitudes toward religion ever undertaken, surveying more than 20,000 scientists and conducting in-depth interviews with over 600 of them. From this wealth of data, the authors extract the real story of the relationship between science and religion in the lives of scientists around the world. The book makes four key claims: there are more religious scientists than we might think; religion and science overlap in scientific work; scientists—even atheist scientists—see spirituality in science; and finally, the idea that religion and science must conflict is primarily an invention of the West. Secularity and Science leaves inaccurate assumptions about science and religion behind, offering a new, more nuanced understanding of how science and religion interact and how they can be integrated for the common good.

  Cities are living, breathing organisms composed not of concrete and steel, but of human stories, interactions, relationships, and collective dreams. Beyond their physical infrastructure, urban environments are complex social ecosystems where diverse human experiences intersect, collide, and transform—creating a dynamic tapestry of cultural expression, social negotiation, and collective identity. This comprehensive exploration delves into the intricate social and cultural landscapes that breathe life into urban spaces, examining how human connections, cultural practices, and sociological patterns shape the very essence of metropolitan experience. 
  The narrative of urban social dynamics is a profound journey through the human experience of collective living, where individual stories weave together to create the rich, complex fabric of city life. By exploring the social structures, cultural interactions, and sociological mechanisms that define urban environments, this book uncovers the nuanced ways in which people create meaning, build communities, and negotiate identities within the dense, diverse landscapes of modern cities. Readers will traverse the intricate terrain of urban sociology, discovering how social networks, cultural practices, economic dynamics, and human relationships transform physical spaces into living, evolving communities—revealing cities not as static geographical locations, but as dynamic, ever-changing repositories of human potential, conflict, creativity, and collective aspiration.
