  A complete history of the universe, spanning 13.8 billion years in an ultra-accessible, uncommonly illuminating, exhilarating chronicle of key events 
   
   
   
  In this thrilling history, David Baker captures the longest-possible time span—from the Big Bang to the present day—in an astonishingly concise retelling. His impressive timeline includes the "rise of complexity" in the cosmos and the creation of the first atoms; the origin of all galaxies, stars, and our solar system; and the evolution of life on Earth, from tiny single-celled organisms to human beings. 
   
   
   
  Weaving together insights across the sciences—including chemistry, physics, biology, archaeology, and anthropology—Baker answers the fundamental questions: How did time begin? Why does matter exist? What made life on Earth the way it is? He also argues that never before has life on Earth been forced to adjust to a changing climate so rapidly, nor has one species ever been responsible for such sudden change. Baker's grand view offers the clearest picture of what may come next—and the role we can still play in our planet's fate.

  Most organisations are oblivious to, or terrified about, web accessibility.
  You may be aware that 20% of your customers – people with disabilities – could be clicking away from your websites or mobile apps every day, without having bought anything or found the information they needed. You may have received complaints about accessibility problems you don't understand, with people asking for what seem like impossible fixes. Your web teams may have read the industry standard WCAG guidelines, but found them impenetrable. You probably know you could be sued if you don't do the right thing, but you don't know how far you need to go to prevent that. And apart from eliminating risk, what else is in it for your organisation?
  In this audiobook, award-winning international accessibility thought-leader Jonathan Hassell shows you how to transform your organisation to consistently and cost-efficiently create websites, mobile apps and other digital products that are usable for all of your customers.
  Inclusive Design for Organisations  gives you a clear, strategic business-aligned framework how to embed accessibility policies and processes consistently throughout your organisation, and how to measure the return on your investment.
  With insights from leading worldwide accessibility experts who have implemented these processes in their organisations, this book comes with a free library of downloadable support tools, templates, podcasts and videos to help you on your journey to accessibility maturity.
