  An award-winning natural-history writer opens the door to the nature that thrives in our yards, gardens, and parks    We all live on nature’s doorstep, but we often overlook it. From backyards to local parks, the natural places we see the most may well be the ones we know the least.     In Close to Home, biologist Thor Hanson shows how retraining our eyes reveals hidden wonders just waiting to be discovered. In Kansas City, migrating monarch butterflies flock to the local zoo. In the Pacific Northwest, fierce yellowjackets placidly sip honeydew, unseen in the treetops. In New England, a lawn gone slightly wild hosts a naturalist's life's work. And in the soil beneath our feet, remedies for everything from breast cancer to the stench of skunks lie waiting for someone’s searching shovel.     Close to Home is a hands-on natural history for any local patch of Earth. It shows that we each can contribute to science and improve the health of our planet. And even more, it proves that the wonders of nature don’t lie in some far-off land: they await us, close to home.

  The idea of engineering has been present since prehistoric times when humans started shaping important creations like lever, wheel and pulley. Every invention is reliable with the contemporary explanation of engineering manipulating basic principles of mechanics to develop useful tools and objects. 
  The word engineering has been derived from the term engineer and dates back to around recently 1325 and the word engineer in those times meant or denoted to someone who was the constructor of engines. The term engine has actually become obsolete now as it is now referred to a military machine or in a more detailed description it was a mechanical apparatus used in wars for eg: a catapult. Engine comes from an old word used in Latin ingenium which means intrinsic quality, particularly cerebral power, hereafter an ingenious creation. 
  As time passed more structures like houses, buildings and bridges which required technicalities the term what we know as civil engineering was introduced to differentiate among those who were experts in building military machines and was called military engineering. 
  The term engineering has much depth and the discipline is extremely broad and comprises a variety of more dedicated types of engineering, each with a more precise prominence on specific parts of technology, applied science and types of application.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  What is consciousness, and why does it matter? Is it a byproduct of the brain, a reflection of the cosmos, or the very fabric of reality itself? Consciousness – Where Did It Come From and Where Is It Going? takes listeners on a profound journey through the mysteries of awareness, exploring both the science and the spirit of mind. 
   
  From leading theories such as Integrated Information Theory and Global Workspace Theory, to deeper explorations of memory, dreams, the self, and even the quantum question, this audiobook illuminates the many faces of consciousness. It traces the evolution of awareness - from the earliest stirrings of life’s inner eye, to the possibility of a universal consciousness shaping the cosmos. 
   
  With clarity and depth, the chapters reveal consciousness as both a scientific puzzle and a timeless mystery. Is the self an illusion? Can dreams open gateways to hidden dimensions of mind? What role does the body play in shaping awareness? And most importantly, what might the future of consciousness hold for humanity and beyond? 
   
  Whether you are fascinated by neuroscience, intrigued by philosophy, or drawn to the spiritual dimensions of mind, this audiobook offers a sweeping exploration of one of the greatest questions of existence: Where did consciousness come from - and where is it going?

  All of us have things we want to change about ourselves. 
  All of us have goals and aspirations, and perfect versions of ourselves that we imagine. We all want to have better abs, better teeth, more confidence, and more money. 
  And every now and then, we get sick of just “wanting” those things and we endeavour to do something about it. That normally involves beginning a new training program, or it means investing money, or changing bank account. 
  We make a huge effort to make these changes, but we seldom end up getting the results we want. In fact, many people have completely given up on the hope that they can EVER change. 
  Why is that? 
  Normally, it’s because we approach our goals in the completely the wrong way. We are looking for drastic change. We want to see immediate results. 
  But that’s not how improvement really works.
