Underground - Stories to...

Adrián Godás

The thrilling history of the extraction and economic control of the world's major minerals – from Antiquity to the present day: gold, copper, iron, lithium, rare earths, and more.
Why should you read this book? Mining is on the verge of regaining a central role on the global stage. As the world gradually shifts toward deglobalization and an indirect confrontation between the United States and China – while countries like Russia and India seek to assert their influence in this emerging multipolar landscape – mineral extraction is becoming ever more strategic. Meanwhile, humanity, faced with the grave threat of climate change, is undergoing an energy transition that demands (and will continue to demand) more metals than ever before. To understand the relevance of mining today, we must revisit its past. History reveals the crucial role that metals and mines have played in shaping nations' destinies – closely monitored, even in recent times like the Cold War, by governments and powerful corporations alike.
From the jungles of the Congo to the glaciers of the Canadian Arctic, from the California Gold Rush to high-altitude excavations in Argentina, and the tale of Spanish tungsten during the Third Reich, Underground is a gripping guided tour through an ancient yet largely misunderstood industry – often reduced to caricatures and oversimplifications in public discourse.
"Brilliant. Essential to understanding the relevance of mining today." Alberto Lavandeira, CEO of Atalaya Mining

DESCRIPTION
Computers have become an integral part of our education system. Computer Science is now not limited to just teaching definitions and commands. Instead, it helps the learners to understand and appreciate the varied uses of computers and its vast applications.
Trackpad iPRO (Ver. 4.0) series based on Windows 10 and MS Office 2019 is comprehensively designed as per the new ICSE syllabus. We believe computer education is a hands-on subject and too much of bookish knowledge can take away the pleasure of learning. All these points have been kept in mind while designing this book and to produce the content that is not only appealing but also challenging to the students.

The topics in the book have been hand picked after extensive research by a team of experts on the subject based on the utility, interest, skill, and basic and trending applications in the global market. We have designed the lessons in such a way that they can be well integrated with other subjects. Step by step approach will make it simple and easy for our students to grasp the concepts. Relevance of the topics was of prime importance throughout the compilation of the book.

Learning is done best when it’s fun-filled and activity-based. To ensure that the content intrigues the students at all times and keeps them interested throughout the course of the book, we have included interesting key features like Student Corner, Tech Funda, Clickipedia, Comp Caution, Reboot, One Touch Learn, Let’s Do It, Crack The Code, Hands-On, Fun In Lab, Teacher’s Corner, Worksheet, Test Sheet, Project, Speech Drill, Supplement Pages and Glossary.

These features will ensure better learning, assessment, and evaluation and enable children to take their knowledge beyond the classroom.

Sample questions of Orange Global Olympiad (Cyber) have been included to promote awareness about the national level competition.

We hope that the book contributes to the progressive development of computer aided education system and prepares our students for all upcoming challenges. We want the children to learn the concepts not only for the purpose of gaining knowledge but also to be able to find their applications. This will enable them to enrich the quality of their lives as well as others’.

Turing's Vision - How AI is...

Alessio Plebe, Pietro Perconti

Chat-GPT, humanoid robotics, and self-driving cars are just a few of the things that are changing our everyday lives. The rapid advancement of AI is eroding one by one all the cornerstones considered unique of human nature: language, consciousness, creativity, and moral responsibility. The book argues that the revolution we are facing is driven by Alan Turing's "vision". This vision rests on the idea that intelligence is not an intrinsic property of human beings, but is a way in which matter is functionally organized and an attribute we are naturally inclined to ascribe to certain entities. For decades we have pretended that this idea does not have the corrosive power that it actually does, perhaps more so than the Copernican and Darwinian revolutions. But now, given the achievements of new forms of computing based on deep learning and predictive coding, the most common intuitions can no longer avoid the dangerous Turing idea. 
 
The book is intended for scholars, researchers, and listeners intrigued by the intersections across disciplines interested in understanding the philosophical, ethical, and social implications of Artificial Intelligence and its impact on human nature.

Belonging in Healthcare - The...

Karen Catlin

It’s become increasingly clear that healthcare workplaces are filled with non-inclusive behavior. People who are underrepresented because of their gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and identity, disabilities, and other factors regularly face biases and challenges that hold them back from success. These include everything from harassment, dismissive behavior, and lack of credit for their contributions, to pay inequity, extra hurdles to advancement, and more. And while many organizations are looking to address these issues with top-down initiatives, there's also an important role for individuals to play in creating a more inclusive culture via everyday acts of allyship. 
In this new book, inclusive workplace expert Karen Catlin brings her popular Better Allies® approach to healthcare workplaces. 
Belonging in Healthcare provides a practical, research-based guide for how to be a better ally for coworkers who are from underrepresented groups. Filled with firsthand accounts from nurses, physicians, staff, administrators, and professors, combined with published studies, the book will help you spot situations where you can create a more inclusive workplace and everyday actions to reshape culture so everyone can thrive. 
This is the book that allies in healthcare have been searching for: an industry-specific guide to the mindsets, strategies, and changes needed to make their workplaces more equitable from the inside out.
