  Decoding how moonshots are built and who gets to build them 
  Moonshots shape the future―self-driving cars, space exploration, AI at planetary scale, and beyond. The ambition has been extraordinary. But what if we haven’t been ambitious enough? 
  In Invent Now: The Next Leap in Moonshots, Dr. Salima Bhimani―former Chief Strategist for Alphabet's portfolio of Other Bets―reveals how the most transformative moonshots begin as hidden opportunities inside stalled systems, misaligned markets, and overlooked economic terrains. 
  ​​Drawing on her experience with companies such as Waymo, Wing, Google X, and DeepMind, Bhimani introduces the Third Space: a new operating lens for building moonshots capable of reshaping industries, activating new markets, and unlocking cascading value at every scale. 
  Through personal stories and lessons the book reveals practices for bold experimentation and unlocking unprecedented solutions to emerging global needs and opportunities. Along the way, listeners are invited to wrestle with how moonshots come into being―and to step into the Moonshot Dojo, a space where practice begins.

  The Future of Agriculture

  Record rain fall and extreme climates have become a common occurrence around the world. The television news shows farmers standing in front of their flooded fields; the ground too wet to harvest one season's crop, or to plant the next. Our climate is changing, but agriculture is not just the victim of climate change - it is one of the major drivers too. Our food systems are responsible for around a third of all greenhouse gases.
  
  
  
  In this book, Sarah Bearchell explores how agriculture is using targeted breeding, automation and precision inputs to produce more with less. She considers how we can reduce our impact by addressing problems in our food system, from packaging and transport to the incredible quantities of waste. As consumers, we can make small changes straight away and push for long term change in the wider system. Agriculture can become a force for good, but it needs our help.

  Every day your body must solve hundreds of hard engineering problems simultaneously, or else you’ll die. Your body enables you to see and hear. It heals you from injuries and diseases. It maintains your temperature. It makes it possible for you to wield a sledgehammer during the day and play piano sonatas at night. Every minute your body choreographs a host of complex systems that are required for you to live. 
  Join engineer Steve Laufmann and physician Howard Glicksman as they take you on an incredible journey exploring some of your body’s greatest marvels, including how your hearing and vision work, how you coordinate your movements, and — perhaps the greatest miracle of them all — how you developed from a single cell at conception. Along the way, you will discover compelling evidence that our bodies are the handiwork of a master designer and engineer.
