  Read by the author.  
  Data is not about number crunching. It’s about ideas. And when used properly (read: ethically), it is the problem solver of our time. 
  Yet many savvy people seem to be in data denial: they don’t think they need to understand data, or it’s too complicated, or worse, using it is somehow unethical. Yet as data and AI (just an accelerated way to put data to work) move to the center of professional and civic life, every professional and citizen needs to harness this power. 
  In The Little Book of Data, each chapter illustrates one of the core principles of solving problems with data by featuring an expert who has solved a big problem with data—from the entrepreneur creating a “loneliness score” to the epidemiologist trying to save lives by finding disease “hotspots.” 
  The stories are told in a fast-moving, vivid, sometimes comic style, and cover a wide frame of reference from adtech to climate tech, the bubonic plague, tiny submarines, genomics, railroads, bond ratings, and meat grading. (That’s right. Meat.) 
  Along the way Evans injects lessons from his own career journey and offers practical thought-starters for readers to apply to their own organizations. 
  By reading The Little Book of Data, you will achieve the fluency to apply your data superpowers to your own mission and challenges—and you will have fun along the way. 
  You will be, in other words, a data person.

  Of Ice and Men - How We've Used...

  An exploration of humanity’s relationship with ice since the dawn of civilization, Of Ice and Men reminds us that only by understanding this unique substance can we save the ice on our planet—and perhaps ourselves. 
   
  Ice tells a story. It writes it in rock. It lays it down, snowfall by snowfall at the ends of the earth where we may read it like the rings on a tree. It tells our planet’s geological and climatological tale. 
   
  Ice tells another story too: a story about us. It is a tale packed with swash-buckling adventure and improbable invention, peopled with driven, eccentric, often brilliant characters. It tells how our species has used ice to reshape the world according to our needs and our desires: how we have survived it, harvested it, traded it, bent science to our will to make it—and how in doing so we have created globe-spanning infrastructures that are entirely dependent upon it. 
   
  And even after we have done all that, we take ice so much for granted that we barely notice it. 
   
  Ice has supercharged the modern world. It has allowed us to feed ourselves and cure ourselves in ways unimaginable two hundred years ago. It has enabled the global population to rise from less than 1 billion to nearly 7½ billion—which just happens to cover the same period of time as humanity has harvested, manufactured, and distributed ice on an industrial scale. 
   
  And yet the roots of our fascination with ice and its properties run much deeper than the recent past.

  How the Universe Works Without...

  The Universe Explained

  You know what is out there. You have heard about black holes, the Big Bang and galaxies by the billion. What nobody explained is how any of it actually runs, and every time you tried to find out, the equations showed up and the wonder left.
  
  This audiobook takes one big idea per chapter, gravity, light, time, matter and energy, the stretching of space itself, the puzzle of dark matter and dark energy, and the long-term fate of everything, and pins each one to a single everyday comparison you can hold in your head while you drive or walk. Every chapter also pauses for a short 'how we know this' moment, so you hear the actual evidence rather than just the claim. There is not a single formula in the whole thing.
  
  By the end you will understand why the Sun shines, why galaxies do not fly apart, why looking at the night sky is looking into the past, and why the universe's future is a genuinely open question. Press play and let the pieces click into place.

  The Spain the tourists did not see in 1910: the marshes of the Guadalquivir, the sierra, the birds and the men who lived off them. Chapman spent thirty years shooting and observing in Spain and wrote the book with a naturalist's precision and a sportsman's memory. This edition adds sixty plates of Spanish painting, among them works by Genaro Pérez Villaamil, Rafael Romero Barros and José Domínguez Bécquer, alongside thirteen illustrations restored and coloured for this volume.
