  Today there is no place on Earth that does not harbor invasive exotic species. Invasive plants and animals can be found on every continent, including Antarctica, and within all waterbodies, including all oceans. In our increasingly connected world, with speedy commercial and recreational travel and the global movement of biological matter for food, invasive species are showing up at such a fast rate that there is no way to accurately count how many currently exist or how many are likely to emerge in the coming decades. Monitoring these species and controlling their spread is essential, as we increasingly understand the negative impacts they pose: their threat to our health; the toll they take on our commercial production; and the threat they pose to native ecosystems. 
   
   
   
  This Very Short Introduction provides a clear definition of an invasive species, and considers the myriad ways they are moved around the globe, and the ecological, social, and economic impacts they often impose. Exploring the way Earth's biodiversity is being affected by global change, Julie Lockwood also discusses policy and management approaches to combating the ill-effects of invasive species, and how invasive species fit within the broader context of environmental change.

  You hear 'dopamine' in every headline, get told cortisol is ruining your life, and quietly wonder if anyone actually knows what these molecules do. You want the real science, told by someone who can explain it without a lecture hall or a supplement pitch.
  
  Press play and you get seven commute-sized chapters, one per molecule, each built on a single vivid analogy you will never unlearn. Dopamine turns out to be your brain's wanting compass, not its pleasure button. Oxytocin is the handshake chemical with a darker tribal side. Cortisol is a morning alarm clock that only becomes a villain when nobody switches it off. Adrenaline, serotonin, endorphins and melatonin each get their own wow moment, the kind you repeat at dinner.
  
  By the last chapter, the headlines make sense, your own moods make more sense, and brain chemistry feels like a story you can follow. Start with dopamine on your next commute.
