  Who should read this book? Someone on their way out the door for their first or an early career health emergency and disaster risk management (HEDRM) experience, regardless of role, or someone who is trying to support one who is, or who does it all of the time and wants to know that they are not alone 
  What does this book tell the reader? It provides the shock of jumping into the cold water of health emergency and disaster risk management (HEDRM), without the risk of drowning; it focuses on practical aspects of the experience of doing the work that guidelines and playbooks (as important as they are) do not address 
  Who else might be interested in this book? People keen to understand how HEDRM happens in the context of highly communicable diseases, or about how global public health, emergencies, aid, and development mix, or medical history... the technical and contextual curious 
  Who should NOT read this book? Anyone who is looking for gory details 
  What is the main strength of this book? It is a raw view of the experience of conducting such responses at the clinical: public health interface, with some lessons durable across emergencies 
  What is the main weakness of this book? It carries all of the biases of such experiences. There is a lot not said; the book has snapshots and cannot relate the 10,000,000 events during the year not described 
  What is new in the 2024 edition? In print and e-book, overdue editing without loss of content, a forward that reflects on the COVID-19 pandemic in the context of themes in the book, and in the print edition available on www.amazon.com, a series of essays stepping back and exploring the ways in which people interact with the threat of infectious diseases that defines our willingness and readiness to meet them

  CISM is a test of judgment, not button-pushing. This audiobook teaches you to think the way it rewards.Most CISM resources bury the one thing that actually passes the exam: the manager mindset. This course leads with it. Think of CISM as a driving licence for security leadership. It does not prove you can configure a firewall at two in the morning. It proves you can run the fleet and decide where it heads. Every lesson is explained in plain language, the way a patient mentor would over coffee, perfect for learning on your commute, at the gym, or on a walk.What you will master:• The priority ladder the exam secretly tests: governance before tools, risk before quick fixes, business before elegance - Domain 1, Information Security Governance: strategy, tone at the top, roles, and why accountability flows down while assurance flows up - Domain 2, Risk Management: likelihood times impact, qualitative vs quantitative, the four treatment options, and the formulas a manager must recognise - Domain 3, the Security Program: the most heavily weighted domain, covering people, process, technology, frameworks, metrics, and third-party risk - Domain 4, Incident Management: the response lifecycle, severity and escalation, evidence preservation, plus business continuity and disaster recovery - A survival kit finish: the ten reflexes that swing borderline questions, the distractor traps ISACA loves, and a calm exam-day planThis audiobook is for you if you are aiming for the CISM whether your exam is next month or next year, you are a technical person who needs to retrain the reflex to fix things yourself, and you want to understand how a security leader decides rather than just memorise facts. You can start studying today.Press play, and learn to be the calm, organised person in the room who understands risk and chooses the responsible answer.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. The battle for AI supremacy that began with ChatGPT is being fought by a surprisingly small cast of people. Sam Altman, the Stanford dropout who became Silicon Valley's kingmaker and survived a five-day boardroom coup. Dario Amodei, the leather craftsman's son and physicist who walked out of OpenAI over safety and founded Anthropic. Demis Hassabis, chess master at thirteen, game developer, neuroscientist - and Nobel laureate - who leads the development of Gemini. And Liang Wenfeng, born in a Guangdong farming village, who used a hedge fund fortune and ten thousand GPUs to deliver the 'DeepSeek shock.' Alongside them: Peter Steinberger, the lone developer whose OpenClaw became the fastest-growing open-source project in history before he joined OpenAI; Moonshot AI's Yang Zhilin; Baidu's Robin Li; and the tangled web of mentors, rivals, and defectors - from the OpenAI Mafia to the Nobel-winning teachers - that connects them all. Inside the five-day coup, the solving of a fifty-year scientific problem, and the day NVIDIA lost 590 billion dollars in market value: know the people behind the headlines, and the future of AI comes into three dimensions. Accessible to everyone from business readers to students. (Based on public information as of July 2026.) Also available: the companion volume 'OpenClaw & NemoClaw Explained.'

  Canada and Climate Change

  William Leiss

  • 0

  Pandemics, massive earthquakes, war, and other catastrophes inspire immediate action because their casualties and destruction are immediately visible. Climate change is an unyielding problem because its long-range dangers are hidden, and thus it is a global risk unlike anything in human experience
  		 
  The federal government recently announced aggressive climate targets for Canada. We have committed to producing net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, which will require major changes for our economy and way of life. Canadian citizens need to understand why our most distinguished climate scientists and our senior political leaders think that we must meet this target. Canada and Climate Change explains the importance of policies that will ensure we meet the net-zero emissions target. William Leiss provides a firm grasp on what climate change is and how scientists have described shifts in the earth’s climate as they have occurred over hundreds of millions of years and as they are likely to occur in the near future, especially by the end of this century.
  		 
  Leiss argues that citizens have a right to place their trust in what climate scientists tell us. Canada and Climate Change is an essential primer on where we stand on the issue of climate change in Canada and what will unfold in the years ahead.

  The Sacred Depths of Nature -...

  For many of us, the great scientific discoveries of the modern age—the Big Bang, evolution, quantum physics, relativity—point to an existence that is bleak, devoid of meaning, pointless. But in The Sacred Depths of Nature, eminent biologist Ursula Goodenough shows us that the scientific world view need not be a source of despair. Indeed, it can be a wellspring of solace and hope. 
   
   
   
  This volume reconciles the modern scientific understanding of reality with our timeless spiritual yearnings for reverence and continuity. Looking at topics such as evolution, emotions, sexuality, and death, Goodenough writes with rich, uncluttered detail about the workings of nature in general and of living creatures in particular. Her luminous clarity makes it possible for even non-scientists to appreciate that the origins of life and the universe are no less meaningful because of our increasingly scientific understanding of them. Goodenough's spiritual reflections respond to the complexity of nature with vibrant emotional intensity and a sense of reverent wonder. This new edition offers a deepened consideration of emergent properties and emergent dynamics, as well as an exploration of their role as the generators of life's complexity. Goodenough also expands upon the ethic of ecomorality in a new chapter, and incorporates new quotes, figures, and poems in her analysis.
