  The revolution will not take place indoors.
  
  
  Kenyan beekeeper-turned-farmer Jess de Boer embarks upon a decade-long journey to find purpose and potential in the explosive world of regenerative agriculture.
  From honey hunting in the last remaining pockets of rainforest in southern Ethiopia, to gardening in the depths of Kenya's largest slum, Jess takes you to the arid lands of Northern Kenya where a group of pioneering farmers have begun to connect the people with the dust beneath their feet.
  This is a journey into restorative action. Confronting the challenges of our stagnant education systems, unsustainable food production techniques and the growing disconnect of our youth, de Boer merges fact and science with hard-won wisdom in this inspiring and accessible tale of proactivity and hope.

  Ways of Attending - How our...

  Attention is not just receptive, but actively creative of the world we inhabit. How we attend makes all the difference to the world we experience. And nowadays in the West we generally attend in a rather unusual way: governed by the narrowly focussed, target-driven left hemisphere of the brain.  
  Forget everything you thought you knew about the difference between the hemispheres, because it will be largely wrong. It is not what each hemisphere does – they are both involved in everything – but how it does it, that matters. And the prime difference between the brain hemispheres is the manner in which they attend. For reasons of survival we need one hemisphere (in humans and many animals, the left) to pay narrow attention to detail, to grab hold of things we need, while the other, the right, keeps an eye out for everything else. The result is that one hemisphere is good at utilising the world, the other better at understanding it.  
  Absent, present, detached, engaged, alienated, empathic, broad or narrow, sustained or piecemeal, attention has the power to alter whatever it meets. The play of attention can both create and destroy, but it never leaves its object unchanged. How you attend to something – or don’t attend to it – matters a very great deal. This book helps you to see what it is you may have been trained by our very unusual culture not to see.  
  Ways of Attending is expertly read by Mike Fraser. The cover design has been adapted from a Cajal original drawing, and used with permission of Legado Cajal (Madrid).

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Recent Stanford research reveals a troubling truth: developers using AI tools report feeling 20% more productive, yet are actually 19% slower. Even worse, AI-generated code contains 80% more security vulnerabilities than human-written code. 
   
  Transform Your Development Workflow with 52 Battle-Tested Practices 
   
  Written by Rachel Kim, a senior software engineer with 12+ years of experience, The AI-Assisted Developer is the definitive guide for professional software engineers who want to leverage GitHub Copilot, Cursor AI, ChatGPT, and Claude without compromising code quality or security standards. 
   
  This isn't another "ChatGPT tricks" tutorial. It's a systematic engineering approach that treats AI as a capable junior developer who needs clear direction and thorough review—not magic that works automatically. 
   
  What You'll Master: 
   
  • Context-First Prompt Engineering: Write prompts that generate production-ready code, not plausible-looking garbage that breaks in production 
  • Security-First Validation: Catch the subtle authentication logic errors and authorization flaws that AI consistently introduces 
  • Strategic Task Breakdown: Learn which tasks to delegate to AI and which require human architectural thinking • Comprehensive Testing Workflows: Generate meaningful unit tests, integration tests, and edge cases that actually catch bugs 
  • Legacy Code Modernization: Use AI to understand, refactor, and migrate complex systems safely 
  • Team Collaboration Standards: Scale AI practices across your organization with proven frameworks and quality gates 
   
  Perfect for: 
   
  Senior engineers who want productivity gains without skill atrophy 
  Technical leads implementing AI practices across development teams 
  Software architects balancing innovation with code quality 
  Any developer building production systems who needs to move faster without breaking things 
  The Future Belongs to Engineers Who Master AI Assistance
