Summary

"Hidden French Cheeses" unveils a fascinating world of endangered French cheese varieties that are at risk of disappearing due to modernization. From centuries-old monastery caves to remote mountain villages, this comprehensive exploration reveals the intricate relationship between geography, tradition, and cheese-making artistry in France. The book masterfully weaves together the stories of rare fromages that rarely venture beyond their birthplaces, examining how specific microclimates and indigenous mold species contribute to their unique characteristics.

 
The journey through France's lesser-known cheese heritage is structured in three distinct parts, beginning with a historical perspective that traces these dairy treasures from medieval monasteries to present-day artisanal producers. Through detailed profiles of forty rare cheeses, readers discover not only the technical aspects of production but also the cultural significance and traditional methods that have been preserved through generations. The final section confronts the modern challenges facing these traditional cheese-makers, highlighting conservation efforts within an increasingly industrialized food system.

 
What sets this book apart is its meticulous documentation of never-before-recorded techniques in English, supported by extensive research and interviews with multi-generation cheese-making families. While maintaining scholarly accuracy, the narrative remains engaging and accessible, serving both as a professional resource and an enlightening guide for culinary enthusiasts. The work particularly emphasizes the preservation of traditional methods, including specific aging conditions and PDO regulations, while exploring the broader context of French gastronomy and cultural heritage.

Before We Go Live - Navigating...

Stephen Flavall

‘Starting out, I made three dollars an hour; then I made four, then eight. After a year and a half of streaming full-time I was finally making minimum wage. A couple of years after that I was signed to a professional team and advertising products to my audience for $1,000 an hour.’ 
Streaming video games is now a billion-dollar industry. In 2022, Twitch alone has over 140 million active monthly users, with top players earning millions each year. But success breeds envy, and when big money’s being made, everyone wants a piece. 
In Before We Go Live, professional streamer Stephen Flavall, aka ‘jorbs’, invites the reader behind the scenes of this new frontier. 
From the boardrooms of LA to doctors' offices in the Midwest, dealing with trolls and stalkers to mingling with crypto scammers and ruthless opportunists, Before We Go Live is both a true story about the dark realities of streaming and the tale of a deep and enduring friendship. 
It’s about what happens when real life intersects with entertainment, and learning to act with kindness and humour in an online world full of prejudice and abuse. 
This audiobook edition is narrated by Ray Chase, voice of Noctis Lucis Caelum, L, and Bruno Buccellatti.

Charlie Sellars

In this radically optimistic climate change book, find yourself empowered to achieve sustainable living across every facet of your life—the personal, the professional, and the political.

“Never has decisive action on climate and environment been more important. This book will help citizens understand that while no one can do everything, everyone can do something—and offers a myriad of ways they can get started too.” —Dr. Trista Patterson, Time100 Climate Leader, 2023, and co-founder of Playing for the Planet

Charlie Sellars pulls insight from his experience as a director of sustainability at Microsoft, which has underlined its commitment to be a green business with a pledge to become carbon negative, water positive, and zero waste by 2030 while protecting ecosystems. He also serves on the governing body of the iMasons Climate Accord, an industry coalition united to decarbonize digital infrastructure.

Inside this sustainable living book, you will learn how to:
- Harness environmental science to make more sustainable decisions using the “Make It, Move It, Lose It, Use It” impact framework.
- Turn your job into a sustainability job, no matter what you do for a living.
- Unleash the power of your voice at the ballot box and in your local community.

This refreshingly optimistic environmental book for adults and recent graduates makes for a great climate change gift, like Hannah Ritchie’s Not the End of the World and Katharine Hayhoe’s Saving Us.

Nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something. It’s not too late to defeat the climate crisis, and What We Can Do will show you how.

A book that finally empowers readers to maximize their impact across every facet of their lives” —Ann Tracy, chief sustainability officer, Colgate-Palmolive

Inclusive Transportation - A...

Veronica O. Davis, Tamika L. Butler

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.

Metal Detecting - Tips...

Sophie Henner

Metal detecting involves using a metal detector, an electronic device designed to find metal objects nearby. These devices vary in form, from handheld wands to large industrial machines. The main components of a metal detector include the control box, which houses the electronic circuitry, controls, and batteries; the search coil, also known as the antenna, which senses metal objects; the shaft, which connects the search coil to the control box and is often adjustable for comfort; and sometimes a stabilizer to keep the unit steady during use. 
  
The search coil generates an electromagnetic field, and when this field encounters a metal object, it creates a disturbance. The control box processes this disturbance and sends a signal to the user, typically an audible beep or a visual display. Metal detecting is used for various purposes, including treasure hunting, where individuals search for coins, jewelry, relics, and other valuable items lost or buried; archaeology, to locate historical artifacts at dig sites; security, for scanning individuals or luggage for concealed weapons or contraband; and construction, to detect metal pipes or rebar in walls, floors, or underground. It is also a popular hobby for enthusiasts who explore parks, beaches, and other areas for interesting finds.
