  Koray Caliskan

  The cryptocurrency world has transformed in a few short years from a niche subculture to a parallel economic universe. How do tens of thousands of financial actors make these new monies? What forces give cryptocurrencies their value—or take it away? And what does crypto's spectacular ascent reveal about the nature of money? 
   
   
   
  In this groundbreaking ethnographic analysis of crypto economies and their global markets and communities, Koray Caliskan offers an inside view of how cryptocurrencies are made and traded. He argues that cryptocurrency should be understood as "data money," a historically novel money type, created as the right to send data privately over an accounting infrastructure called blockchain. Drawing on two years of fieldwork among global cryptocurrency communities and in crypto markets, Caliskan makes visible the production principles of cryptocurrencies and explores how crypto exchanges work from within. He explains why and how we have been misunderstanding, underregulating, and improperly taxing crypto exchanges and actors. He also proposes a radically new way to make sense of new finance and its actors. An invaluable book for all listeners seeking to understand cryptocurrency, Data Money sheds new light on a profound transformation of finance and its possible future trajectories.

  Birdland: A Journey Around...

  A joyous celebration of Britain’s rich bird life 
  In Birdland, journalist and lifelong birder Jon Gower explores our intimate connection with the bird life around us. From the symphonic song of the wren to the clack of a puffin’s beak and from epic migrations to sunset murmurations, birds are commonplace miracles. No wonder they have inspired our artists, writers and songwriters. Whether rare or abundant, Jon Gower visits some of the best places in Britain to watch birds, searching for some species he has always wanted to see such as wryneck, dotterel and barred warbler. 
  But all is not well in Birdland. Gower charts the many changes to Britain’s bird life over the last 50 years, as the countryside has seemingly emptied and in many ways fallen silent. He considers the effects of the climate emergency, the decline in biodiversity and warming oceans on birdlife and looks at work being done to mitigate these developments. But above all it is a celebration of birds and their being, and a call to arms to defend them. As Great Bustards return to our plains and eagles to our mountains, Jon Gower’s book examines the future from a bird’s-eye view. 
  Jon Gower's Birdland is a prize-winning exploration of nature and ecology, focusing on endangered bird species. As a top guide in birdwatching, his memoirs read like a biography of the birds he has encountered, making this non-fiction book a must-read for animal enthusiasts. 
  For fans of Daniel Start (Wild Guide Lake District and Yorkshire Dales), John Lewis-Stempel (England), Mark Rees (The Little Book of Welsh Landmarks), Alice Roberts (The Incredible Unlikeliness of Being), and Darren Chetty (How to Disagree).

  Cleaner Mouth Longer Life - What...

  Brushing and flossing are essential components of dental health, but that is not what this book is about! According to Dr. Garcia, a clean mouth becomes “dirty” because of the things done to it or placed in it by conventional dental practices. That’s because traditional dentistry is primarily concerned with pain and appearance. No one likes an aching tooth – it often drives us to the dentist in the first place. And we all want perfectly arranged pearly whites with no gaps. These are not wrong desires, but without proper concern for the patient’s health beyond the oral cavity, long-term damage can be done to vitality and length of life. Teeth, gums, and jawbone are connected to the rest of the body through the circulatory system, the lymphatic system, the digestive system, the respiratory system, and the nervous system. That means that what happens in the mouth never stays there. The materials and procedures used to produce a great-looking smile often dump toxins, pathogens, and other stresses on the oral tissues and the rest of the body that wreak havoc in many places. As a holistic dentist, Dr. Garcia can guide you into good choices about your dental care that will not sacrifice either a good-looking smile or your overall health and longevity. As you’ll soon see, a cleaner mouth does promote a longer life!

  The Last of Its Kind - The...

  The great auk is one of the most tragic and documented examples of extinction. A flightless bird that bred primarily on the remote islands of the North Atlantic, the last of its kind were killed in Iceland in 1844. Gísli Pálsson draws on firsthand accounts from the Icelanders who hunted the last great auks to bring to life a bygone age of Victorian scientific exploration while offering vital insights into the extinction of species. 
   
   
   
  Pálsson vividly recounts how British ornithologists John Wolley and Alfred Newton set out for Iceland to collect specimens only to discover that the great auks were already gone. At the time, the Victorian world viewed extinction as an impossibility or trivialized it as a natural phenomenon. Pálsson chronicles how Wolley and Newton documented the fate of the last birds through interviews with the men who killed them, and how the naturalists' Icelandic journey opened their eyes to the disappearance of species as a subject of scientific concern—and as something that could be caused by humans. 
   
   
   
  Blending a richly evocative narrative with rare, unpublished material as well as insights from ornithology, anthropology, and Pálsson's own North Atlantic travels, The Last of Its Kind reveals how the saga of the great auk opens a window onto the human causes of mass extinction.
