  Planting Our World

  It all begins and ends with plants. From the chance to live on this planet to the pleasure of listening to the sound of a violin—every story begins with a plant. 
   
   
   
  We animals account for a paltry 0.3% of the planet's biomass while plants add up to 85%. It is obvious that every story on this planet has a plant as its protagonist. Our world is a green world; Earth is the planet of plants. And when, with just a little training, we are able to look at the world without seeing it solely as humanity's playground, we cannot help but notice the ubiquity of plants. They are everywhere and their stories are inevitably wound up with ours. Not to see this plan, or even worse, to ignore its existence, is one of the most serious threats to the survival of our species. 
   
   
   
  Neurobiologist Stefano Mancuso is back with a book to tell us about the greenprint of our world. He does it through unforgettable stories starring plants; stories combining an inimitable narrative style and remarkable scientific rigor. From the story of the red spruce that gave Stradivarius the wood for his fourteen violins, to the Kauri tree stump, kept alive for decades by the interconnected root system of nearby trees. From the story of the slipperiness of the banana skin to the plant that solved the "crime of the century," the Lindbergh kidnapping, by way of wooden ladder rungs.

  Personal Privacy in the Age of...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  For two decades, privacy has remained at the center of public debate, with repeated reports of cyber privacy violations highlighting the urgent need for clearer regulation. Yet fundamental questions persist: What is privacy? Where does the private sphere end and the public begin? How does privacy relate to freedom, autonomy, and liberty? How should individual rights be balanced against the public’s right to know in an era of pervasive information and communication technologies (ICTs)? 
  In this audiobook, Yair Oppenheim reviews existing definitions of personal privacy and distills their core components. He proposes dividing privacy into two categories: deep personal privacy and general personal privacy. By shifting the discussion toward deep and general personal privacy information, he draws a clear boundary around deep personal privacy when analyzing the impact of ICTs. 
  Oppenheim argues that until the age of ICTs, deep personal privacy was largely inaccessible and therefore not culture-dependent, unlike general personal privacy, which has always varied across cultures. While ICTs affect both types, their most profound impact lies in enabling, for the first time in history, the exposure of deep personal privacy. This sphere, he contends, is a fundamental human need, essential not only for individuals but also for society as a whole. 
  Dr. Yair Oppenheim holds degrees in mathematics, computer science, business, and cyber security, and earned his Ph.D. from Tel Aviv University’s Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas. He has managed IT and information systems for multinational corporations including Delta-Galil, GE Healthcare, and Teva Pharmaceuticals.
