  Bestselling author Colm O’Regan is a worrier. A professional one. Caution is his watchword. Risk aversion is his love language. Now Colm is grappling with the biggest worry of all: the whole ‘planet being on fire’ thing and how exactly we can help. 
  Don’t worry, this isn’t a book telling you how to live off the grid and make your own planet-friendly soap from woodlice (that’s the sequel). Instead, Climate Worrier is about the journey, about trying (and often failing) to be part of the solution to the big issues, while not despairing at the endless hypocrisies that come from also being part of the problem. It’s about trying to be become the greenest version of yourself; about joining the ranks of those who give a shit and do a bit. 
  So if you’ve fretted about: 
  - using your diesel car to get closer to nature, 
  - eating your ethical food off a plastic plate, 
  - existing 
  and have a general feeling we’re all doing too little, too late, Climate Worrier is the book for you. 
  In Climate Worrier, O'Regan offers a humorous and relatable take on the struggles of trying to live an environmentally friendly lifestyle. His essays on the topic are both enlightening and entertaining, making this book a top pick for environmentalists and conservationists alike. 
  For fans of Emer Mclysaght (Oh My God, What a Complete Aisling), and Britney Spears (The woman in me).

  By many expert mathematicians, group theory is often addressed as a central part of mathematics. It finds its origins in geometry, since geometry describes groups in a detailed manner. The theory of polynomial equations also describes the procedure and principals of associating a finite group with any polynomial equation. This association is done in such a way that makes the group to encode information that can be used to solve the equations. This equation theory was developed by Galois. Finite group theory faced a number of changes in near past times as a result of classification of finite simple groups. The most important theorem when practicing group theory is theorem by Jordan holder. This theorem shows how any finite group is a combination of multiple finite simple groups. 
  Group theory is a term that is mainly used fields related to mathematics such as algebraic calculations. In abstract algebra, groups are referred as algebraic structures. Other terms of algebraic theories, such as rings, fields and vector spaces are also seen as group. Of course with some additional operations and axioms, mathematicians accept them as a group. The methods and procedures of group theory effect many parts and concepts of mathematics as well as algebra on a large scale. Linear algebraic groups and lie groups are two main branches or say categories of group theory that have advanced enough to be considered as a subject in their own perspectives. 
  Not only mathematics, group theory also finds its roots in various physical systems, especially in crystals and hydrogen atom. They might be modeled by symmetry groups. Thus it can be said that group theory possess close relations with representation theory. Principals and ideas of group theory are practically applied in the fields of physic, material science and chemistry of course. Group theory is also considered as a central key in the studies and practices of cryptography. In 2000s, more than 10000 pages were published in the time span of 1960 to 1980. These publications were a collaborative effort in order to culminating the result as a complete classification of infinite simple groups. For the practitioners and learners of mathematics or even physics the theory of groups has a great importance. Not all aspects of this theory are used in mathematics or physics. But there are some ideas and principals that help a lot as you advance to higher level mathematics, it is very same with the physics. Full application of this wide theory is not possible on a single subject anyhow. However it is partially applied in both cases, and still leaves a great influence.

  Quantum Superposition: The Power of Meow is an invitation to step out of fear, habit, and unconscious living—and into the only place where real change is possible: the present moment. 
  Blending timeless spiritual wisdom with modern quantum ideas, this audiobook explores the powerful concept of superposition—the idea that many possibilities exist at once until a choice is made. In science, observation collapses possibility into reality. In life, awareness does the same. Each moment you become conscious, you choose who you are becoming. 
  Using the playful and profound metaphor of Schrödinger’s cat, this audiobook gently reminds you that your life, like the cat in the box, holds many potential outcomes at the same time. You are not stuck. You are not broken. You are standing in a field of possibility, and your awareness determines which path becomes real. 
  Through simple language, grounded insight, and practical reflection, you’ll learn how to live in the now, release the emotional weight of the past, and stop reacting on autopilot. You’ll discover how beliefs shape reality, how intention creates momentum, and how conscious observation allows you to rewrite your inner story without force or struggle. 
  This audiobook is not about forcing positivity or escaping reality. It’s about learning how to pause, observe, and choose from clarity rather than fear. You’ll be guided toward becoming the witness instead of the reactor, the creator instead of the victim, and the calm center instead of the storm. 
  Whether you are seeking healing, clarity, spiritual grounding, or a deeper understanding of your own power, Quantum Superposition: The Power of Meow offers a steady, reassuring voice that meets you exactly where you are—and shows you how to begin again. 
  The present moment is not small. 
  It is where everything changes. 
  And it is always available to you—right now.

  'Translated into English for the first time after a hugely successful 2022 reissue in Japan, this classic text, which features prominently in Wim Wenders’ film Perfect Days, takes us on a “beautiful, pensive” journey through trees in Japan.'--Caroline Sanderson, The Bookseller 
  A Japanese classic, Tree invites us to foster peace in our lives by connecting with trees. 
  Cherry blossom, hinoki, ezo spruce. Persimmon, maple, cypress. The trees of Japan are wondrous emblems of beauty that cast a spell on those who venture to its unique landscape. 
  As a child, Aya Kōda realized they were more than mere objects of beauty. Gifted a sapling by her father, she discovered that we depend on trees as much as they do on us. Markers of time passing, they clear the air and regenerate our earth – while we are responsible to care for their future. 
  Following her travels around Japan, as she witnesses landslides, lumber and forests of falling ash, Tree is a beautiful series of essays that contemplate the most distinctive and eternal features of our natural world. A modern classic translated for the first time, Kōda’s voice echoes down the generations, to remind us that trees hold a mirror to what we cherish on earth, and what we choose to leave behind. 
  Featured in Wim Winders’ Oscar-nominated film Perfect Days and now in English for the first time, translated from Japanese by Charlotte Goff.

  "I have known, and loved, and studied many cats, but my knowledge of her (Pretty Lady, a cat) alone would convince me that cats love people--in their dignified, reserved way, and when they feel that their love is not wasted; that they reason, and that they seldom act from impulse." 
   
  The thoughts of Helen Winslow, a thoughtful and articulate cat friend, about the cats in her life. (Summary by Karen Merline)
