Sinopse

"Robot Insects" explores the innovative field of bio-inspired robotics, focusing on the development and potential of miniature, insect-sized robots. These tiny machines hold promise for revolutionizing industries like precision agriculture, where they could efficiently pollinate crops, and medicine, by delivering targeted drug delivery directly to cells, minimizing side effects. The book examines the complex engineering required to mimic insect movements and sensory systems, highlighting the ongoing challenges of miniaturization and power management.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with an introduction to bio-inspired engineering principles and moving through materials development, key applications, and broader societal implications. Readers will discover how advancements in nanotechnology and artificial intelligence are crucial to creating functional robot insects. Importantly, the text also addresses ethical considerations and environmental impacts, prompting a dialogue on responsible innovation in this rapidly evolving field.

    SILVER WINNER OF THE 2026 NAUTILUS BOOK AWARDS 
    Recommended Read from Yale Climate Connections 
    “[Frostlines weaves] together natural history, indigenous perspective, and environmental transformation in the Arctic. The book helps bring a human story to the science of climate change.”—Parade 
    A sweeping exploration of the Arctic—and how it’s being transformed by climate change—from National Geographic writer Neil Shea 
    As warming reshapes our planet, the Arctic—a region that once seemed unchangeable, beyond the reach of modern problems—is quickly coming undone. While the old cold world can still be glimpsed in the movements of caribou, the hidden lives of wolves, and the hunting skill of an Iñupiaq elder, look closer and you’ll find a new Arctic appearing in its place. 
    In Frostlines, Neil Shea blends natural history, anthropology, and travel writing to explore how the beauty, chaos, and power of change in the far north are reflected in the lives of people and animals. He sojourns with a wolf pack on Canada’s Ellesmere Island and travels with Indigenous hunters in Alaska, Nunavut, and the Northwest Territories. He tracks dwindling caribou herds across the top of North America, searches for vanished Vikings in Greenland, and visits the front line of the new Cold War rising between Russia and Europe. What Shea finds is not one Arctic but many—all still linked by shattering cold, seasons of darkness, and a pure, inimitable light. 
    Frostlines illuminates: 
      
    How Greenland’s history has led to Trump’s interest in [or obsession with] the country todayHow Russia is using the Arctic as a testing ground for geopolitical confrontationsWhy oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge will further threaten Indigenous people and animalsWhy increased ship traffic in the Northwest Passage has profound consequences for the Inuit and global politics  
    Written with masterful prose and a spark of adventure, Frostlines is an expansive yet intimate revelation of the Arctic during a time of transformation, and a journey along the threshold of a stunning and sometimes frightening world that’s emerging right before our eyes.

    "A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom" by Andrew Dickson White is a seminal two-volume work that delves into the prolonged struggle between science and religious orthodoxy throughout Western history. White, co-founder and first president of Cornell University, provides a comprehensive account of how religious dogma frequently stood in opposition to scientific advancements, from the age of Galileo to Darwinian evolution. He posits that this clash hindered intellectual progress and societal development, but also acknowledges the instances where religion fostered the growth of scientific understanding. Through detailed historical analysis, White underscores the necessity of maintaining a clear separation between theological beliefs and empirical investigation for the unhindered progress of knowledge.

    Security has been designed for well resourced organizations, and thus falls short for 90% of organizations who lack the necessary resources to manage security at scale. Security built-in by design and by default provides a leap for these organizations. However, we must also use architectural patterns that scale to better meet the needs of these organizations. Learn more on why we are at a. critical junction to make this shift and how to consider architectural patterns that scale in product design and selection. 
    The information security industry is undergoing a major change, forced by the rise of end-to-end encryption, encryption that cannot be intercepted, transport protocol stack evolution, "zero trust networks", and distributed computing. While we understand the logical connections between these trends, there is little analysis of all of these trends in combination. Examination of all five trends uncovers opportunities that not only improve the state of information security and the general posture, but also lead to resource reductions necessary for information security to be sustainable. 
    In this exciting new book from security expert Kathleen M. Moriarty, the examination of all five trends uncovers opportunities to change the state of information security. Providing a unique perspective from the center of the debates on end-to-end encryption, Moriarty explores emerging trends in both information security and transport protocol evolution, going beyond simply pointing out today's problems to providing solutions for the future of our product space.
