Summary

"Space Time" explores the crucial question of how humanity will perceive and measure time as we become an interplanetary species. The book examines the limitations of Earth-centric timekeeping and the necessity for a universal time system that accounts for relativistic effects. It argues that as space exploration advances, particularly with long-duration spaceflights, a shared and scientifically accurate method for coordinating activities and maintaining a sense of time is essential.For example, the differing daily cycles on Mars compared to Earth highlight the practical challenges of using traditional timekeeping methods in space. The book progresses from the historical context of timekeeping to the complexities of interplanetary time, including the mechanics of time dilation during high-speed space travel. It delves into potential solutions like atomic clocks and pulsar-based timekeeping. "Space Time" uniquely emphasizes the human element, considering the psychological and cultural impacts of redefining our fundamental understanding of time, not just the technical aspects. The book draws upon research in physics, astronomy, and engineering, with data from space missions to illustrate the practical challenges of timekeeping in space.

    What is cancer? What causes it, and why do some people get it, while others don’t?  
    And with so much conflicting information now available – who can we really trust for sensible medical advice anyway?

    In The Cancer Roadmap, breast cancer surgeon and three-time cancer patient Dr Liz O’Riordan confronts the big cancer truths (and myths), offering clear, evidence-based answers. She breaks down the latest research to give the facts you need to make informed treatment decisions that are right for you or your loved one. 
    She gives definitive answers to common questions such as:Is it your fault you got cancer?Do you need to stop drinking alcohol?Can you cure cancer by changing your diet?Does alternative medicine work better than chemo? 
    Dr Liz also suggests meaningful, practical steps to reduce the risk of future recurrence, even when the odds feel stacked against you. 
    Let her guide you through your cancer journey with confidence and clarity, and give you the best chance of your cure.

    Our society has a technology problem. Many want to disconnect from screens but can't help themselves. These days we spend more time online than ever. Some turn to self-help measures to limit their usage, yet repeatedly fail, while parents feel particularly powerless to help their children. Unwired: Gaining Control over Addictive Technologies shows us a way out. Rather than blaming users, the book shatters the illusion that we autonomously choose how to spend our time online. It shifts the moral responsibility and accountability for solutions to corporations. Drawing lessons from the tobacco and food industries, the book demonstrates why government regulation is necessary to curb technology addiction. It describes a grassroots movement already in action across courts and legislative halls. Groundbreaking and urgent, Unwired provides a blueprint to develop this movement for change, to one that will allow us to finally gain control.
