  There are microbiomes—communities of microbes—everywhere we can imagine: in every environment, on every surface, and in every creature, including us. They are an inevitable, if largely invisible, part of life, and understanding how our microbiome works can improve our health.In The Microbiome: What Everyone Needs to Know®, Dr. Berenice Langdon provides a foundational understanding of the microbiome and what it does—and does not—do. Tracing the history of microbiome research, up to the most recent scientific advancements, she dispels common misunderstandings to better acquaint listeners with the form and function of the human body's microbial community. In an accessible style, Dr. Langdon covers the microbiomes of the human body—from the skin to the gut-brain axis, the growing microbiome industry, the creation of the microbiome on newborns, the effects of microbiome changes, and even the possibilities for microbiome evolution into the future.In a fast-moving and oft-overhyped area of research, The Microbiome is a timely and significant contribution to the What Everyone Needs to Know® series.

  Many of us spend a great deal of our time dreaming about our next trip to the mountains, whether for a weekend getaway or our yearly vacation. We hear within that deep inexplicable pull toward the wilderness and would agree with John Muir, who said: "The mountains are calling and I must go." We sense that in the wild we are touching the edge of something that is both wonderful and mysterious. 
  In this book Erik Stensland, a professional landscape photographer based in Estes Park, Colorado, explores this longing we have for the wilderness and suggests that it is the trailhead for a journey to wholeness. Through short daily reflections on the natural world paired with his gorgeous photos from Rocky Mountain National Park, he encourages us to go deeper within ourselves and discover the healing that nature is offering.

  The quest to find a theory of quantum gravity that could potentially explain everything.
  
  
  Nearly 60 years ago, Nobel Prize-winners Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson stumbled across a mysterious hiss of faint radio static that was interfering with their observations. They had found the key to unravelling the story of the Big Bang and the origin of our universe.
  
  That signal was the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), the earliest light in the universe, released 379,000 years after the Big Bang. It contains secrets about what happened during the very first tiny increments of time, which had consequences that have rippled throughout cosmic history, leading to the universe of stars and galaxies that we live in today.
  
  This is the enthralling story of the quest to understand the CMB radiation and what it can tell us of the origins of time and space, from bubble universes to a cyclical cosmos - and possibly leading to the elusive theory of quantum gravity itself.
