  Memory flows like a river, and it is through its constant flow that we come into being.
  
  
  Twelve of our most exciting contemporary writers consider the subject of rivers and how they shape us throughout our lives, demarcating cities as well as moulding our creative consciousness.
  
  Tessa Hadley revisits Rumer Godden's The River; Jo Hamya pays homage to Virginia Woolf; Michael Malay goes nightfishing for eels along the River Severn; Marchelle Farrell revisits the tropical waterfalls of her childhood home in Trinidad; and Caleb Azumah Nelson is drawn to the Guadalquivir in Seville.
  
  Tender and astute, By the River explores the cultural, social and psychological significance of the rivers that run through our societies and our minds, bringing together writers in a celebration of water and its transformative qualities.

  What If Time Is Not What We Think? 
  What if everything you have been taught about time is wrong? What if time does not move in one steady line, the same for everyone, but instead bends, shifts, or even disappears depending on where you are in the universe? Quantum Time takes you on a fascinating journey into the strange world of quantum physics to explore one of the greatest mysteries of existence: time itself. 
  Time in Daily Life vs. the Quantum World 
  In everyday life, time feels simple. Seconds tick forward. Clocks keep us on schedule. We grow older. But in the quantum world, none of this is guaranteed. At the smallest scale of reality, time may not even exist the way we think it does. Instead, it may be something that only appears when particles interact, a fragile construct that changes depending on the universe or multiverse you are in. 
  A Radical New View of Time 
  This audiobook challenges the traditional idea that time is an absolute force. Instead, it presents a bold new view. Time may be local, appearing only through the behavior and arrangement of particles. That means different regions of the cosmos or even parallel universes could each experience time in completely different ways. In some cases, time may even loop, pause, or move backward. 
  Where Physics Meets Consciousness 
  From black holes to quantum entanglement, Quantum Time explores how the deepest mysteries of physics connect with human consciousness and reality. It asks whether the mind itself may play a role in shaping how we experience past, present, and future. 
  An Invitation to Rethink Reality 
  If you are fascinated by science, philosophy, or metaphysics, Quantum Time offers a thought-provoking journey that will forever change the way you see the ticking clock.

  On the morning of May 9, 1980, harbor pilot John Lerro was guiding a 600-foot freighter, the Summit Venture, into Tampa Bay. Directly in the ship's path was the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. Suddenly, a violent weather cell reduced visibility to zero at the precise moment when Lerro attempted to direct the 20,000-ton vessel underneath the bridge. Unable to stop or see where he was going, Lerro drove the ship into a support pier. 
   
   
   
  Skyway tells the entire story of this horrific event, from the circumstances that led up to it through the years-long legal proceedings. Bill DeYoung pieces together the harrowing moments of the collision, including the accounts of witnesses and survivors. 
   
   
   
  Among those whose lives were changed forever was Wesley MacIntire, the motorist whose truck ricocheted off the hull of the Summit Venture and sank. The lone survivor, MacIntire, like Lerro, was emotionally scarred and remained haunted by the tragedy for the rest of his life. 
   
   
   
  DeYoung offers a history of the ill-fated bridge, from its construction in 1954, through the addition of a second parallel span in 1971, to its eventual replacement. The result is a detailed portrait of the rise and fall of a Florida landmark.

  Making Mental Might - How to...

  Doctor Bernard Patten―erstwhile Memory Fellow of the New York Academy of Medicine, founder of the first memory clinic at the Neurological Institute of New York, and author of scientific papers on memory therapy and memory problems―wants to help you to a better mind, a better memory, and, consequently, a better life. 
  Memory degradation happens to everyone. Even people in good health forget where they park their cars or leave their reading glasses. Some draw a blank entering their PIN. Is the stove off? Cat fed? Door locked? Did you take your medication? Not sure? How come? These memory problems only get worse as we get older unless we employ mental exercises to improve memory now. 
  Mountains of scientific research prove that mental exercise benefits the brain as much as physical exercise benefits the body. Mental gymnastics boosts brainpower, augments memory, and (in some cases) actually increases brain size. It can help prevent dementia, mental decline, and the much-feared Alzheimer's disease. 
  Making Mental Might does not aim to increase your IQ or show you how to get smarter. It offers the proper mental training to look, sound, and perform worlds better. These techniques have helped hundreds of students at Rice University's School of Continuing Studies under Doctor Patten improve their working memory. They can do the same for you.
