  Christopher Hitchens

  On June 8, 2010, while on a book tour for his bestselling memoir, Hitch-22, Christopher Hitchens was stricken in his New York hotel room with excruciating pain in his chest and thorax. As he would later write in the first of a series of award-winning columns for Vanity Fair, he suddenly found himself being deported "from the country of the well across the stark frontier that marks off the land of malady." Over the next eighteen months, until his death in Houston on December 15, 2011, he wrote constantly and brilliantly on politics and culture, astonishing readers with his capacity for superior work even in extremis.  Throughout the course of his ordeal battling esophageal cancer, Hitchens adamantly and bravely refused the solace of religion, preferring to confront death with both eyes open. In this riveting account of his affliction, Hitchens poignantly describes the torments of illness, discusses its taboos, and explores how disease transforms experience and changes our relationship to the world around us. By turns personal and philosophical, Hitchens embraces the full panoply of human emotions as cancer invades his body and compels him to grapple with the enigma of death.Mortality is the exemplary story of one man's refusal to cower in the face of the unknown, as well as a searching look at the human predicament. Crisp and vivid, veined throughout with penetrating intelligence, Hitchens's testament is a courageous and lucid work of literature, an affirmation of the dignity and worth of man.

  Are you a web designer interested in learning more about user experience? 
  Would you like to customize your website to suit your customers' needs and optimize their user experience? 
  Are you looking to get more details on the various resources used in optimizing user experience? 
  User experience, or UX, can be defined as any interaction with a service or a product. How the user feels, navigates, and completes the desired task are considered. UX design considers every component of the interaction. This principle can be applied to anything. The purpose of UX Design is to provide users with experiences that are simple, relevant, efficient, and enjoyable. 
  Consider heading to your favorite grocery store. You want to buy something, so you stroll down the aisles (how are they spaced?), listen to music (what sort of music and why?), inspect the shelf (is it made of wood, metal, or plastic?), interact with a cashier, and then leave. Everything in this easy and insignificant procedure is based on experience. You've interacted with an entire brand, including colors, feelings, music, arrangements, workers, and so on. Everything is based on personal experience. It is the same case with user experience in web design. 
  User experience has become an essential component of web design. 
  Why? 
  It is because web designers have realized that customers and other website users prefer using seamless platforms that are easy to use and learner-friendly.  
  Is it now easy for you to understand the need to enhance your user experience design skills as a web designer or developer? 
  What are you waiting for? 
  Grab a copy of this informative book, develop the user experience skills you need, and make your customers happy!

  "Providing a post-COP26 perspective on the climate emergency, Hothouse Earth: An Inhabitant's Guide acknowledges that it is now practically impossible to keep this side of the 1.5°C dangerous climate-change guardrail. The upshot is that we can no longer dodge the arrival of a disastrous, all-pervasive climate breakdown that will come as a hammer blow to global society and economy. Bill McGuire, Professor of Geophysical and Climate Hazards, explains the science behind the climate crisis, painting a blunt but authentic picture of the sort of world our children will grow old in, and our grandchildren grow up in, a world that we catch only glimpses of in today's blistering heatwaves, calamitous wildfires, and ruinous floods and droughts. Bleak though it is, the picture is one we must all face up to, if only to spur genuine action—even at this late stage—to stop a harrowing future from becoming a truly cataclysmic one."
