  When it comes to food safety and germs, there are as many common questions as there are misconceptions. And yet there has never been a book that clearly examines the science behind these important issues—until now. In Did You Just Eat That? food scientists Paul Dawson and Brian Sheldon take listeners into the lab to show, for example, how they determine the amount of bacteria that gets transferred by sharing utensils or how many microbes live on restaurant menus. The authors list their materials and methods (in case you want to replicate the experiments), guide us through their results, and offer in-depth explanations of good hygiene and microbiology. Written with candid humor, this fascinating book will reveal surprising answers to the most frequently debated—and also the weirdest—questions about food and germs, sure to satisfy anyone who has ever wondered: should I really eat that?

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  Before humanity. Before Earth. Before memory itself… there was creation. 
  Space Effect is the beginning of the Danger All-in-One saga — a cosmic origin story about consciousness, creation, love, and the birth of existence itself. 
  Alex awakens in a reality untouched by civilization, where thought shapes matter and emotion gives form to worlds. As existence expands, he creates laws, symbols, music, language, and life itself alongside Gaga — the first companion born from division, balance, and connection. 
  Together they shape the foundations of a universe still learning what it means to exist. 
  But creation comes with consequence. 
  As worlds evolve and intelligence spreads across the stars, Alex begins to understand that even a godlike creator cannot fully control what is born from freedom. 
  Blending philosophical science fiction, emotional storytelling, cosmic wonder, and the mystery of consciousness, Space Effect begins the journey that will eventually become the Danger All-in-One universe. 
  This audiobook is narrated using AI-assisted digital voice narration with cinematic sound design.

  A vibrant account of how measurement has invisibly shaped our world, from ancient civilizations to the modern day. 
   
   
   
  From the cubit to the kilogram, the humble inch to the speed of light, measurement is a powerful tool that humans invented to make sense of the world. In this revelatory work of science and social history, James Vincent dives into its hidden world, taking listeners from ancient Egypt, where measuring the annual depth of the Nile was an essential task, to the intellectual origins of the metric system in the French Revolution, and from the surprisingly animated rivalry between metric and imperial, to our current age of the "quantified self." At every turn, Vincent is keenly attuned to the political consequences of measurement, exploring how it has also been used as a tool for oppression and control. 
   
   
   
  Beyond Measure reveals how measurement is not only deeply entwined with our experience of the world, but also how its history encompasses and shapes the human quest for knowledge.
