  Island of Woods - How Ireland...

  Forestry in Ireland has never been so contentious. Over the last century the area of Irish woodland has increased tenfold, mostly through the planting of imported conifer species; government policy is to plant more trees to supply industry and to tackle climate change, both urgent priorities. But there has been a backlash from farmers, local communities, environmentalists and EU regulators. The rate of planting has plummeted. And up to one-third of new plantations in Ireland are failed forests that should never have been planted in the first place. How did we end up in this peculiar situation?
  Island of Woods traces the history of Irish forests over the last 10,000 years. It explains why Ireland lost so much of its forest cover, before a burst of tree-planting over the last few decades. It examines the state of Irish forestry today and sketches a way forward for our woods that balances commercial, environmental and social goals – a vision of a different type of forestry that could transform the Irish landscape and re-establish a genuine tree culture in the country.
  This engaging examination of Irish woodlands relates historical events to present-day concerns and controversies, drawing out crucial themes that continue to shape the Irish landscape.

  Hubris - The Rise Fall and...

  Humans are the most intelligent beings this planet has ever produced. But how is it that we find ourselves faced with an existential crisis that threatens to overwhelm us? 
   
   
   
  Leading archaeogeneticist Johannes Krause and journalist Thomas Trappe investigate what DNA can tell us about how we got where we are and what our future might be. They show how the first humans were defeated again and again and suffered fatal setbacks, and how Homo sapiens succeeded in conquering continents, overcoming natural borders, and bringing other species under its control. But the genetic blueprint that enabled us to get to the place where we are today had one flaw: it didn't factor in planetary boundaries. Now that we are approaching those boundaries for the first time after millions of years of evolution, an urgent question arises: can we learn to live within the planetary limits, or are we doomed by our DNA to continue to expand, consume, and absorb the resources around us to the point of exhaustion, consigning ourselves and other species to extinction? 
   
   
   
  While the looming climate crisis does not augur well for humanity's capacity to adapt to the new situation in which it finds itself, we are not at the mercy of our DNA—or at least we don't have to be. But can we harness the lessons of the past to survive the present?

  In "Data Mesh: A Comprehensive Guide to Decentralized Data Architecture," readers are introduced to a transformative approach to data management that challenges conventional centralized systems. This essential guide delves into the principles and practices of Data Mesh, advocating for a paradigm shift towards a domain-oriented, decentralized data architecture. This book is meticulously designed for data architects, CTOs, data engineers, and any professionals involved in data-intensive industries who seek to overcome the limitations of traditional data management and unlock greater flexibility and scalability. 
  The guide starts with a thorough introduction to the core concepts of Data Mesh, including its four foundational pillars: domain-oriented decentralization of data ownership, data as a product, self-serve data infrastructure, and computational governance. Each section not only explains the theoretical aspects but also illustrates practical implementations through case studies and real-world scenarios, providing readers with a clear pathway to adopting Data Mesh in their organizations. 
  Further chapters are dedicated to the technical implementations of Data Mesh, detailing the technological stack and strategies required to support a scalable and efficient decentralized data architecture. The book also addresses common challenges and pitfalls, offering expert advice on navigating cultural shifts, integrating legacy systems, and maintaining data interoperability. 
  "Data Mesh: A Comprehensive Guide to Decentralized Data Architecture" also explores the future prospects of Data Mesh, including its role in leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning within a decentralized framework. It outlines how Data Mesh can drive innovation, enhance data security, and improve data compliance in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

  “This culinary cosmic outing is as creative as it is informative.” — STARRED review, Publishers Weekly
  		 
  From Impossible Burgers to lab-made sushi, two witty, plugged-in food scientists explore leading-edge AgTech for the answer to feeding a settlement on Mars — and nine billion Earthlings too
  		 
  Feeding a Martian is one of the greatest challenges in the history of agriculture. Will a Red Planet menu involve cheese and ice cream made from vats of fermented yeast? Will medicine cabinets overflow with pharmaceuticals created from engineered barley grown using geothermal energy? Will the protein of choice feature a chicken breast grown in a lab? Weird, wonderful, and sometimes disgusting, figuring out “what’s for dinner on Mars” is far from trivial. If we can figure out how to sustain ourselves on Mars, we will know how to do it on Earth too. In Dinner on Mars, authors Fraser and Newman show how setting the table off-planet will supercharge efforts to produce food sustainably here at home.   
  		 
  For futurists, sci-fi geeks, tech nuts, business leaders, and anyone interested in the future of food, Dinner on Mars puts sustainability and adaptability on the menu in the face of our climate crisis.
