  A Question of Standing - The...

  The mission of the CIA has always been intelligence. Seventy-five years ago, in the year of its creation, the National Security Act gave the agency, uniquely in world history up to that point, a democratic mandate to pursue that mission of intelligence. It gave the CIA a special standing in the conduct of United States foreign relations. That standing diminished when successive American presidents ordered the CIA to exceed its original mission. When they tasked the agency secretly to overthrow democratic governments, the United States lost its international standing, and its command of a majority in the United Nations General Assembly. Such dubious operations, even the government's embrace of assassination and torture, did not diminish the standing of the CIA in United States public opinion. However, domestic interventions did. CIA spying on domestic protesters led to tighter congressional oversight from the 1970s on. 
   
   
   
  A Question of Standing offers a balanced narrative and perspective on recognizable episodes in the CIA's history. Famous incidents include the Bay of Pigs invasion, the War on Terror, 9/11, the weapons of mass destruction deception, the Iran estimate of 2007, the assassination of Osama bin Laden, and Fake News. The book also defends the CIA's exposure of foreign meddling in United States elections.

  Called By The Wild - The Dogs...

  The thrilling story of a pioneering conservationist working with dogs to protect wildlife from poachers.
  Conraad de Rosner is one of the first game rangers to focus on working with specially trained dogs to protect wildlife from poachers – both 'bushmeat' poachers, who use cruel snares to trap animals, and criminal syndicates killing for rhinoceros horn and capturing critically endangered pangolins, the most trafficked animal in the world.
  Con's life – constantly at risk from poachers, wildlife and even his own fellow rangers – has been saved on numerous occasions by his devoted canine companions. His first dog, Zingela, a Weimaraner, saved Con from near certain death at the hands of two fellow rangers; on another occasion, Zingela alerted Con to a concealed wounded buffalo, one of Africa's most dangerous animals, about to charge.
  When Zingela was tragically killed, hit by a car while Con was away, the only meagre consolation was that Con had kept Landa, one of the nine puppies sired by Zingela. Landa followed in his father's footsteps as the leader of the canine anti-poaching team that is still operating today. Con's story is an epic of modern-day African wildlife conservation, filled with courage, adventure and romance.

  In the Name of Sharks - 1st Edition

  Twenty meters below water, the oceanographer François Sarano came face to face with a five-and-a-half-meter great white shark. Seduced by the gentle elegance of this majestic creature, Sarano experienced a profound sense of affinity with her as they swam side by side, shoulder to shoulder, eye to eye, cutting a single figure through the ocean depths. It was an experience which made him realize the depth of our ignorance of the lives of sharks, leading him to become a passionate advocate for their protection. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on the latest scientific research on the biology and ethology of sharks and their exceptional characteristics, this book aims to break through the barrier of prejudice and to pay homage to their true nature. Representing a last vestige of wildness, their populations are nevertheless under threat—like so many species, they have been hunted and exploited by humans. Sarano argues for a change of mindset in which we lose ourselves in the world of the other, so that each living entity, human and non-human, can take their rightful place in the broader global ecosystem.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Most people have been told passive income from software doesn't exist. They're wrong—and AI just made it accessible to everyone. Codex for Agentic AI Automation is the complete guide to using OpenAI's Codex AI coding agent to build, test, deploy, and sell automation scripts that generate revenue without requiring your active presence. No computer science degree. No years of coding experience. Just clear thinking, precise prompts, and a system that turns automation ideas into commercial products. Inside this audiobook you'll learn why automation scripts beat SaaS for first-time builders—lower complexity, faster time to revenue, and zero subscription infrastructure required, how to identify and validate automation opportunities that real buyers will actually pay for, how to use Codex as an agentic coding partner to go from a natural language description to a deployable working script, how to build data collection, API integration, webhook, and scheduled job automations that run without you watching, how to write error handling and self-recovery logic that makes your scripts production-grade, how to deploy on zero-maintenance infrastructure and monitor without being involved, where to sell your scripts on platforms like Gumroad and Lemon Squeezy, and how to build a compounding portfolio of automation products that grows your income over time. This is not a book about programming theory or AI as an abstract concept. It is a practical blueprint for building a software product business in 2025 where the technical barrier has dropped far enough that the limiting factor is no longer whether you can write code—it is whether you have a clear enough idea to describe what you want built. The gap between a useful automation idea and a product that sells while you sleep has never been smaller.
