  A fully updated new edition of David Attenborough’s bestselling classic. 
  BIRDS. 11,000 species, the most widespread of all animals: on icebergs, in the Sahara or under the sea, at home in our gardens or flying for over a year at a time. Earthbound, we can only look and listen, enjoying their lightness, freedom and richness of plumage and song. 
  David Attenborough has been watching and learning all his life. His classic book, now fully updated with the latest discoveries in ornithology, is a brilliant introduction to bird behaviours around the world: what they do and why they do it. He looks at each step in birds' lives and the problems they have to solve: learning to fly; finding food; communicating; mating and caring for nests, eggs and young; migrating; facing dangers and surviving harsh conditions. 
  Sir David has no equal in helping others to learn and making it exciting. His curiosity and enjoyment are infectious. He shows the lifelong pleasure that birds around us offer, and how much we miss if unaware of them. 
  Attenborough, the Sunday Times bestselling author, delves into the science of birdwatching, offering readers a comprehensive guide to understanding the natural world. His passion for zoology and ecology is palpable, making this non-fiction book a captivating read for anyone interested in nature and its history. 
  For fans of David Allen Sibley (Birds of Instagram), Joshua Foer (Atlas Obscura, 2nd Edition), Steve Brusatte (The Rise and Reign of the Mammals), Martin Stevens (Sensory Ecology, Behaviour, and Evolution), and Jonnie Hughes (Earthshot).

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Discover the critical importance of sleep that modern culture systematically ignores while undermining the rest your body desperately requires for health, cognition, and longevity. This essential audiobook presents the neuroscience and health research revealing sleep as the foundation of all other biological functions rather than optional downtime to be minimized. Learn why sleep deprivation produces effects comparable to intoxication while society celebrates exhaustion as proof of dedication and productivity. The narrator reveals how inadequate sleep causes weight gain, immune dysfunction, cognitive impairment, emotional instability, and increased mortality that accumulate silently until catastrophic failure. Discover the specific biological processes occurring during sleep that cannot happen while awake and why no amount of stimulants can substitute for actual rest. Understand how artificial lighting, screens, shift work, and always-on culture have created an epidemic of sleep deprivation with consequences rarely attributed to their actual cause. This audiobook examines sleep disorders, circadian biology, and the environmental factors destroying sleep quality for millions who never recognize why they feel perpetually depleted. Learn evidence-based strategies for improving sleep quality and quantity that address root causes rather than symptoms. Essential listening for anyone feeling chronically tired, experiencing health problems with mysterious origins, or seeking to understand why rest matters far more than productivity culture admits.

  The Energy Trap - Why the...

  Richard Lyon

  One of humanity's greatest modern threats involves an area of life we thought we had mastered: energy. For the last century our energy system has delivered rising prosperity, increased lifespans and largely eliminated famine. Now it is being dismantled – with confidence, with public money and with almost no scrutiny.
  In this short, sharp book, Richard Lyon – electrical engineer, petroleum engineer and energy economist – strips the energy debate back to the physics. What he finds is alarming: fossil fuels are running out, the proposed replacements can't do the job and the people in charge don't understand the science well enough to realise, much less pursue, solutions.
  The consequences could be severe, but they are not yet inevitable. In a series of lucid chapters, The Energy Trap sets out the problem and proposes a way forward – provided we are willing to stop wasting our remaining resources on energy systems that can't work and get on with building one that can.

  Machine Learning with Python -...

  It’s clear that the future is all about artificial intelligence and machine learning. We all want better recommendations, better personalization, and we want much more from our internet searches. The apps we use can see, they can hear, and they can even respond, and that is a direct result of artificial intelligence – improving the user experience and bringing much more value across every industry. 
  This brings two questions to mind, though – How do we bring those experiences to life and what’s the best computer programming language to use? 
  The obvious answer is to use Python because it is the best language for machine learning. 
  Why?  
  What makes it the best programming language? 
  Artificial intelligence projects are different from your standard software project, and that difference comes from the technology stack, from the skills that you need for artificial intelligence projects and from the real necessity for deep research. 
  You need a programming language that offers stability, flexibility, and a wide range of tools. Python gives you all this and more. From development, right through deployment to maintenance, the Python language helps us to be productive developers, confident about what we are building.

  Manifesto for the Revitalisation...

  The housing crisis in Portugal serves to illustrate a problem that has implications beyond the borders of the country, shedding light on challenges that are faced by major European and global cities. The rise in housing prices, driven by real estate speculation, the growth of tourism and the influx of foreign investment, has made it increasingly challenging for many in the population, especially the middle and lower classes, to access home ownership or renting. 
  The digitalisation of work has opened the possibility for highly qualified professionals to consider where they would like to live, regardless of the physical location of their job. Cities like Lisbon and Porto have become increasingly attractive destinations, offering a good quality of life combined with a range of professional opportunities. Nevertheless, this phenomenon has placed additional strain on the real estate market, leading to rising prices and the displacement of residents to the outskirts. 
  The housing policies that have been adopted thus far have not been as effective as might have been hoped, and in some cases may even have had the opposite effect. It seems that measures such as strict rent control, poorly targeted subsidies and the massive construction of new housing without proper urban and infrastructural planning have not solved the problem, and in some cases may have made it worse. Perhaps it would be beneficial to reconsider these approaches, acknowledging their shortcomings and adapting them to reflect the current situation. 
  It may be worth considering rehabilitating vacant buildings as a viable and sustainable solution. By restoring existing buildings, we can explore ways to increase the supply of affordable housing, revitalise run-down urban areas and preserve historical and cultural heritage to promote more inclusive and sustainable cities.
