  Throughout history, humankind has marveled at the natural world, from the majesty of towering mountains to the depths of the oceans. Yet, some phenomena defy explanation, remaining elusive and enigmatic. One such phenomenon is the sonic anomaly known as Sound's Fury—a violent, inexplicable burst of sound that seems to break all the rules of nature. Its origins, causes, and implications have puzzled scientists, captivated the public, and left a trail of unanswered questions. This book delves deep into the sonic enigma, exploring its mystery and the far-reaching impact it has had on the world. 
  Sound's Fury, a term coined to describe these overwhelming sonic events, is not a fictional occurrence but a genuine, puzzling phenomenon that has been observed around the globe. The first reports came from isolated locations where communities were shaken by intense, thunderous sounds that appeared out of nowhere, yet left no visible source. It wasn't long before similar incidents began to spread across different regions, sparking intrigue, fear, and a sense of helplessness among those who experienced them. What makes this phenomenon even more baffling is the absence of any clear pattern or consistent explanation. 
  Over time, experts have tried to analyze these events from a scientific standpoint. Acousticians, geophysicists, and even space scientists have worked tirelessly to find answers. They have proposed several theories, ranging from natural phenomena like sonic booms or atmospheric anomalies to more complex, speculative causes, such as unknown seismic activities or extraterrestrial influences. Despite their best efforts, none of these explanations have fully captured the essence of Sound's Fury or provided a definitive answer.

  A guided journey through the inner workings of Earth, the cloaked mysteries of other planets in our solar system, and beyond. 
   
   
   
  Earth, from space, looks like a shimmering gem suspended in an inky, infinite expanse. But this serene image masks the magnificent and volatile interior forces that make life possible for millions of species on the surface. The placid appearances of our neighboring planets similarly belie their powers—and science fiction-worthy features, like diamond rain. The daily machinations of Earth's deep interior make the planet a habitable, yet sometimes treacherous, place to live. Drill down thousands of miles through our built environments and soil, sand, water, rock, and minerals to the outer (mainly liquid iron with nickel) and inner core, encountering intense convection, roiling metals, hidden continents, and shifting tectonic plates. Discover the effects of magnetism, rotation, and seismic activity seen and sensed in the forms of auroras, hurricanes, volcanoes, and earthquakes, among other manifestations. 
   
   
   
  Join this exciting journey to far-flung interstellar locations and the center of the Earth to learn what lies beneath our feet, and why it's the best real estate in our solar system.

  The story of life on a French olive farm continues with this moving memoir of hard work, hard luck, and waiting for the return of happiness. Carol Drinkwater and her husband, Michel, arrive at their villa in Provence in anticipation of another glorious summer. Unfortunately, they find the farm unkempt and suffering from lack of rainfall. When their gardener, Monsieur Quashia, finally shows up, he cheerfully explains the shed-building project he’s working on as a surprise for them—a surprise that will send their expenses skyrocketing. But there are bigger problems to come than wild boars tearing through fences and other everyday challenges of farming. After a terrifying accident in Monte Carlo and a hospital stay, Michel is barely functional, and Carol soon realizes she must fend for herself. Burdened with problems from a financial reversal to the threat of nearby wildfires, she will experience firsthand the uncertainties that have plagued farmers since the dawn of agriculture—and hold on to hope that in the end, nature will provide. “A storyteller of great economy and deftness.” —The Telegraph
