Sinopse

In an era of intensifying climate change, Resilient Trees explores the remarkable survival strategies of specific tree species facing wildfires, floods, and extreme temperatures. The book highlights how understanding the genetic and physiological adaptations of these trees is vital for conservation and sustainable forestry. It reveals intriguing facts, such as the cork oak's fire-resistant bark and the bald cypress's ability to thrive in waterlogged soils, illustrating nature's ingenious solutions to environmental challenges.

 
The book provides a comprehensive analysis of wildfire-resistant, flood-tolerant, and extreme-temperature-thriving trees. Beginning with an overview of global forest challenges, it progresses through detailed examinations of species like the ponderosa pine, mangrove trees, and bristlecone pine, showcasing their unique adaptations. The evidence presented is drawn from scientific literature, field studies, and genomic analyses. This approach bridges academic research with practical applications, making it a valuable resource for ecologists, foresters, and anyone interested in the intersection of biology and climate change.

    New neuroscience research is showing us the long-term impact that reading aloud has on children, stretching all the way into adulthood. We have always known that reading aloud is an important way to bond with your baby and develop language skills. But the latest research, led by author Rekha S. Rajan, shows that individuals who were read to more frequently as children showed a healthier brain in old age. Parents reading to their own child was a valuable and important part of supporting lifelong brain development. The Read Aloud Factor gives parents and caretakers what they need to make read-alouds a regular and enjoyable part of the family routine. This innovative book shares the latest research on brain development, describes how reading aloud supports language and social-emotional development, and provides ideas for integrating STEAM practices of reading aloud with arts and technology. The scientific insight that inspired this project is distilled into accessible, actionable information for parents and educators on how to read aloud in an effective, engaging, and meaningful way. The key to the book is its accessible approach, which combines findings from the most modern research to provide new pathways for parents and caregivers to support their baby's development.

    ‘Warm, insightful . . . hilarious and at times heartbreaking! A modern-day Dickens’ Abi Morgan‘Original, funny, and heart-warming’ Lucy Searle, Homes & GardenEver wondered what really goes on behind closed doors? 
    Over more than twenty years working as a plumber, Nick has shared thousands of mugs of tea with hundreds of fascinating people. Here he gives his plumber’s-eye view of society in a series of entertaining, amusing and outrageous beneath-the-kitchen-sink dramas. 
    While fixing pipes, Nick was also looking for characters to write about. In his toolbox, in addition to spanners, he had a notebook, which wasn’t just for jotting down measurements. And ‘the secret plumber’ has some great stories to tell, about people who might just be your friends, family or neighbours. 
    There’s the frankly terrifying high-court judge, whose wife calls the shots; the divorcing woman, using him to help her build a rather bizarre botox business; and all the wonderful people he meets when his number is posted on Grindr as an LGBTQ+-friendly plumber. 
    This book is Tales of the Unexpected – in overalls. It shows London as it really is: one of the most diverse places on the planet, ranging from downright dangerous to preposterously posh. To Nick, London is a melting pot, filled with an extraordinary variety of fascinating people, who have one thing in common – they all need a plumber!
