  Anthropocene - A Very Short...

  The proposal that the impact of humanity on the planet has left a distinct footprint, even on the scale of geological time, has recently gained much ground. Global climate change, shifting global cycles of the weather, widespread pollution, radioactive fallout, plastic accumulation, species invasions, the mass extinction of species—these are just some of the many indicators that we will leave a lasting record in rock, the scientific basis for recognizing new time intervals in Earth's history. The Anthropocene, as the proposed new epoch has been named, is regularly in the news. 
   
   
   
  Even with such robust evidence, the proposal to formally recognize our current time as the Anthropocene remains controversial both inside and outside the scholarly world. Instead, the Anthropocene has emerged as a powerful new narrative, a concept through which age-old questions about the meaning of nature and even the nature of humanity are being revisited and radically revised. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction explains the science behind the Anthropocene and the many proposals about when to mark its beginning: the nuclear tests of the 1950s? The beginnings of agriculture? The origins of humans as a species? The Anthropocene remains a work in progress. Is 
  this the story of an unprecedented planetary disaster? Or of newfound wisdom and redemption?

  Welcome to the world of project management in the age of AI. The revolution is here, and it's time to embrace it. As project managers, we are living in a world of constant change and disruption, and AI technology is transforming the way we work. We need to adapt, evolve, and embrace the opportunities that AI technology presents.    The potential of AI technology in project management is immense. It can help us to automate repetitive tasks, streamline processes, and deliver insights that were previously inaccessible. By leveraging AI technology, project managers can unlock new growth opportunities, increase profitability, and stay ahead of the competition.    However, the rise of AI technology also presents challenges for project managers. As project managers, we need to learn how to manage complex AI projects, collaborate with AI teams, and interpret AI-generated insights. We need to develop new skills, embrace new technologies, and adopt a growth mindset to succeed in the age of AI.    The challenge of managing AI projects requires project managers to learn new skills and approaches. For example, project managers need to understand how to manage projects with AI-driven analytics, such as machine learning algorithms, and how to integrate these insights into their project plans. Additionally, project managers need to be able to manage the complexity of AI projects, which often involve large amounts of data and multiple stakeholders.    To overcome these challenges, project managers need to adopt a growth mindset and embrace new technologies. This means being willing to learn new skills, experiment with new tools, and collaborate with AI teams. Project managers also need to be able to interpret AI-generated insights and incorporate them into their project plans effectively.    In this book, we explore the challenges facing project managers in the AI revolution and the specific needs project managers have to succeed in the age of AI. We provide strategies, tools, and resources for project managers to leverage AI technology to create value-based propositions and intellectual property.    We also share case studies and examples of successful AI projects, as well as stories of project managers overcoming challenges in the AI revolution. These examples illustrate the impact of AI technology on project management and provide lessons learned to help project managers understand how to apply these strategies and insights to their own projects.    Our goal is to help project managers unlock the full potential of AI technology and take their projects and organizations to the next level. We encourage the reader to reflect on their own skills and recognize the growth potential that AI technology presents. We want to inspire and motivate project managers to embrace the challenges and opportunities of the AI revolution.    So, are you ready to step into the unknown and embrace the growth potential of your company through AI-driven project management? Let's begin this journey together and unlock the power of AI technology.

  The ultimate photographic collection of the most historic trees on the planet. 
  Uncover remarkable trees from around the world, many of which have borne witness to key moments in history or reached a scale and age that have allowed them to become a part of history themselves. 
  “[A] rich history … it contains some of the most extraordinary tales of trees through time” — The Sunday Post 
  First meet 'Methuselah’, a bristlecone pine in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, believed to be 4,900 years old. Learn about trees which have inspired great events, such as the Isaac Newton apple tree in Lincolnshire, where the famous scientist observed an apple falling from a tree (which still stands in the family garden). Other flora has withstood historic events such as in Japan, where the Hibaku jumoku still grows as a survivor tree from the Hiroshima bombing and the 9/11 Survivor Tree in New York City. 
  Many trees continue to inspire our world today including the long avenue of beech trees in Northern Ireland known as the Dark Hedges which Game of Thrones fans will instantly recognise as the road to Kings Landing, the Robin Hood’s oak in the Sherwood Forest or the J. R. R. Tolkien trees in Avebury, which inspired the Ents in The Lord of the Rings. 
  Rest a while beside the oldest trunks and witness the enthralling stories nestled within the branches of these gentle giants. 
  For fans of Gene Stone (Animalkind), Scott Christianson (Fatal Airs), Valentina D'Efilippo (The Brain), Simon Sebag Montefiore (Stalin), and Nigel Farndale (Haw-Haw).
