Summary

Cloud Types explores the fascinating world of cloud formations, linking them to weather prediction and climate change. It emphasizes that understanding clouds is crucial, as they act both as indicators and drivers of atmospheric conditions. For instance, cloud cover affects Earth's temperature by reflecting sunlight and trapping heat, impacting global warming. The book reveals how cloud observation, once the backbone of weather forecasting, continues to inform modern climate models.

 
The book guides readers through cloud classification, associating types like cirrus, cumulus, and stratus with specific weather conditions, and then examines their role in climate change. By integrating cloud studies with environmental science, Cloud Types offers a unique perspective, moving beyond simple identification to broader implications for our changing climate. This approach makes the book valuable for anyone interested in the interplay between weather patterns and Earth's climate.

 
The book progresses from basic cloud identification to advanced research, supported by satellite imagery and ground-based observations.
Available since: 03/10/2025.

    From author, culinary expert, and Top Chef judge Gail Simmons comes a fun, informative, and trailblazing guide to a rarely explored side of hospitality: how to be a great guest. This program is read by the author.Countless influential voices have written books about hosting, offering tips for what to cook, how to set the perfect table, mix the best drinks and create the most welcoming vibes. But hospitality, by definition, involves at least two people; where is the advice for guests?Culinary expert and perennial Top Chef judge Gail Simmons is something of a professional on the subject. As a tastemaker and lifestyle authority, she is invited to countless social events running the gamut from world-class fine dining and international affairs to neighborhood potlucks. Through it all, she knows that for any gathering to be a success, guests must rise to the occasion and actively embrace their role.In Guesting, Gail unpacks the reciprocal nature of this relationship and explores the sometimes-tricky choreography that governs its dance. She also shares her essential tenets of guesting, and proven strategies for navigating any social situation (yes, even assigned seating). From dinner parties to weddings, religious observances to restaurants, Guesting guides listeners through all types of “get-togethers” with confidence and grace. It also connects the vital role guesting plays in our wellbeing and the integrity of our collective culture, at a moment when technology and the temptation for short-term comfort have diminished our inherent need to create—and maintain—human relationships.And since any good guest knows that bringing something to the table is always the right move, Gail shares ideas and recipes for thoughtful store-bought contributions, homemade food gifts, and favorite dishes to share with a crowd. Whether you’re visiting an old friend, going out for dinner, or attending a milestone celebration, Gail has the answers and inspiration to help you become the consummate guest.A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books

    In this 1997 conversation with Michael and Justine Toms, Alice Walker says “Something was lost when we took to heart traditional religious stories in which God is separate from nature. And something precious is regained when we honor our intrinsic sense of awe and worship toward nature, and our deep desire for connection with both nature and our human community.” 
    Walker is the author of many books including the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Color Purple (Simon & Schuster 1982) and Anything We Love Can Be Saved (Random House 1997). 
    Topics explored in this dialogue include: 
    •	The real nature of human nature 
    •	A new look at the stories of Adam and Eve, Sarah and Hagar 
    •	Why religious stories can be dangerous, and food should be free 
    •	Church life in the deep South 
    •	The story of one of Walker1s ancestors in slavery 
    •	A compassionate perspective on Winnie Mandela 
    •	Fidel Castro as champion of the Cuban people 
    •	Prison labor in the U.S. and China
