  Infectious diseases have long been a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with their impact felt in both developed and developing countries. These diseases are caused by harmful microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, which invade the body and disrupt normal functions. The nature of infectious diseases varies widely, from the mild common cold to severe and life-threatening conditions such as HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and COVID-19. Understanding the factors that contribute to the spread of infections, the mechanisms through which they affect the body, and the ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent them is vital for public health efforts and individual well-being. 
  The transmission of infectious diseases can occur through various routes, including direct contact with infected individuals, airborne transmission, contaminated food and water, and vector-borne transmission through insects. The ease with which infectious diseases spread makes them a persistent global concern, particularly in areas with limited access to healthcare, sanitation, and clean water. Environmental factors such as climate change, urbanization, and population movement further exacerbate the spread of diseases, often leading to epidemics and pandemics. 
  Advancements in medical science and public health have enabled significant progress in diagnosing and treating infectious diseases. Early detection through diagnostic tools such as laboratory testing and imaging allows for more targeted interventions. In addition to traditional treatments, the development of vaccines has revolutionized disease prevention, providing immunity against some of the most dangerous pathogens. However, challenges such as antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and emerging infectious diseases continue to pose threats to global health, necessitating ongoing research and innovation in both treatment and prevention strategies.

  About seventy-one per cent of the Earth's surface is water, and even on dry land we remain closely connected to aquatic life. It provides us with oxygen, food, medicine and materials. Wild waterlife infiltrates our lives in many surprising ways. Every other breath we take is filled with oxygen provided by ocean-dwelling microscopic plants. A type of seaweed provides a means to directly test whether people are infected with viruses, including Covid-19. Robotics design takes inspiration from a pike's ability to accelerate with greater g-force than a Porsche.
  Wild Waters by Susanne Masters is a celebration of the breadth of wildlife that can be found in and around our varied waterways, from oceans and rivers to rock pools and ponds. Armchair explorers can read a fascinating account of how aquatic plants and animals enrich human life. Swimmers, paddleboarders, dog walkers, families and anyone with a passion for the great outdoors can learn about local wildlife, including when and where to look for different species without causing any harm.
  
  With stunning illustrations by Alice Goodridge, Wild Waters provides a tantalising insight into the world beneath the surface.

  Transportation planners, engineers, and policymakers in the United States face the monumental task of righting the wrongs of their predecessors while charting the course for the next generation. This task requires empathy while pushing against forces in the industry that are resistant to change. How do you change a system that was never designed to be equitable? How do you change a system that continues to divide communities? 
   
   
   
  In Inclusive Transportation, transportation expert Veronica O. Davis shines a light on the inequitable and often destructive practice of transportation planning and engineering. She calls for new thinking and more diverse leadership to create transportation networks that connect people to jobs, education, opportunities, and to each other. Inclusive Transportation is a vision for change and a new era of transportation planning. Davis explains why centering people in transportation decisions requires a great shift in how transportation planners and engineers are trained, how they communicate, the kind of data they collect, and how they work as professional teams. 
   
   
   
  Davis aims to disrupt the status quo of the transportation industry. She urges transportation professionals to reflect on past injustices and elevate current practice to do the hard work that results in more than an idea and a catchphrase.
