  Critical: Why the NHS is being...

  The true, eye-opening account of how the NHS has been failed and what we can do to save it. 
  ‘The NHS is an institution. But it’s also a political football, kicked back and forth between politicians for the past 75 years. It’s a burden to some and a potent vote-winner for others. It’s a construct, framed in the media. It’s a set of ideas and a logo. It’s a workplace for many and the birthplace of almost all of us. It’s become a valued part of our society, it is extraordinarily special – and it’s being destroyed.’  
  The NHS is at crisis point. In the 75 years since it was founded on the dream of making healthcare accessible to everyone, its principles have been chipped away at and disregarded by successive political leaders. The result: an underfunded, understaffed, exhausted workforce, a decimation of patient services and the infiltration of privatisation within our public healthcare system. We are now in danger of losing what we have come to depend upon: the NHS is collapsing and a two-tier healthcare system is emerging in its place. We can stop this, but only if we do it together. 
  In her first book, Dr Julia Grace Patterson, founder of EveryDoctor and fierce advocate for the future of the NHS, lays bare the truth about the current state of our healthcare system and sets forth transformational ideas on how we could save it. A book built on a love of the NHS at its heart, Critical is a must-read for anyone who wants it to survive for another 75 years. 
  Dr Julia Grace Patterson's Critical is a best commentary on the state of the NHS, exploring its history, administration, and the social issues that have led to its current crisis. It is a non-fiction book that offers a unique perspective on the medical challenges of the 20th century. 
  For fans of Graham Smith (Abolish the Monarchy), Jolyon Maugham (Bringing Down Goliath), Isabel Hardman (Fighting for Life), Chris Bryant (Code of Conduct), and Andrew Seaton (Our NHS).

  AI is transforming software development, shifting programmers from writing code to collaborating with AI in an intent-driven workflow. Vibe coding—a prompt-first, exploratory approach where you describe what you want in natural language and let a large language model fill in the blanks—represents a radical shift in the developer's role from writing code to directing it. However, vibe coding comes with a serious caveat: Like a high-speed exploratory vehicle, it can take you off the beaten path quickly. Beyond Vibe Coding: From Coder to AI-Era Developer explores how AI-powered coding assistants like GitHub Copilot and OpenAI Codex are reshaping the way we build software, from automating routine coding tasks to influencing architecture and design decisions. 
   
  Written by Addy Osmani, this guide provides developers, tech leads, and organizations with practical strategies to integrate AI into their workflows effectively. Learn how to formulate clear goals and constraints for the AI, review AI-generated code critically, and integrate those pieces into a coherent whole. Whether you're adopting AI tools today or preparing for the future of software engineering, this book offers insights and hands-on examples to keep your skills sharp in this evolving landscape.

  Shrink the City - The 15-Minute...

  Cities define the lives of all those who call them home: where we go, how we get there, how we spend our time. But what if we rethink the ways we plan, live in, and move around our cities? What if we didn't need a car to reach the grocery store? What if we could get back the time we would have spent commuting and put it to other uses? 
   
   
   
  In this fascinating, carefully researched and reported book, longtime Financial Times journalist Natalie Whittle investigates the 15-minute city idea—its pros, cons, and its potential to revolutionize modern living. 
   
   
   
  From Paris, Melbourne, and Rotterdam to Charlotte, North Carolina, and Tempe, Arizona, cities worldwide are being guided by the 15-minute city's ideals—with varying results. By looking at these examples, Whittle considers: 
   
   
   
  ● what really happens when a city expands bike lanes and pedestrian areas—and disincentivizes long commutes 
   
   
   
  ● which approaches to building affordable housing are actually effective 
   
   
   
  ● how neighborhoods of varying wealth are affected by 15-minute city policies 
   
   
   
  This timely book serves as a call to reflect on our cities and neighborhoods—and it outfits us with insights on how to make them more sustainable, safe, and welcoming.

  About Relationships and Climate ChangeThe challenge of climate change is one of the defining issues the world is facing at the start of the 2020s. It has mobilised a whole new generation of social activists, some of whom are going to extreme lengths to confront the public and especially political leaders with the threat that climate change makes to their future and the planet as a whole.Arguments about the causes of climate change are usually underpinned by the assumption that more human beings living on the planet are inevitably bad for the environment and climate. However, a careful biblical reflection on these issues yields a more nuanced and hopeful view, and this report seeks to stimulate fresh conversations about how best to respond to Climate Change now and in the future.

  This illuminating book weaves personal stories of a multilingual upbringing with the latest scientific breakthroughs in interspecies communication to show how the skill of deep listening enhances our curiosity and empathy toward the world around us 
   
   
   
  Third Ear braids together personal narrative with scholarly inquiry to examine the power of listening to build interpersonal empathy and social transformation. A daughter of Holocaust survivors, Rosner shares stories from growing up in a home where six languages were spoken to interrogate how psychotherapy, neurolinguistics, and creativity can illuminate the complex ways we are impacted by the sounds and silences of others. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on expertise from journalists, podcasters, performers, translators, acoustic biologists, spiritual leaders, composers, and educators, this hybrid text moves fluidly along a spectrum from molecular to global to reveal how third-ear listening can be a collective means for increased understanding and connection to the natural world.
