  Historically, technological disruptions have always been met with fear and skepticism, from the Industrial Revolution to the advent of the internet. Just as mechanized farming displaced manual labor, and the web transformed commerce, AI’s presence is beginning to impact every field imaginable. However, unlike previous innovations, AI doesn’t just replace repetitive or physical tasks; it extends to cognitive functions as well. This makes the effects of AI’s integration into the workplace even more striking. Professions that once seemed immune to automation—such as law, medicine, and education—are now seeing AI-driven tools that assist or even replace human decision-making. 
  The speed at which AI is changing the workforce is staggering. The rapid adoption of AI technologies has created both opportunities and challenges. While many industries have embraced AI to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and drive innovation, others are grappling with the consequences of job displacement. The automation of manual labor, for instance, has led to job losses in sectors like manufacturing and logistics, as machines now perform tasks faster and more accurately than humans ever could. 
  Yet, the story is not entirely one of doom and gloom. AI is also fostering job creation. As businesses implement AI technologies, new industries are emerging, and jobs that didn’t exist before are becoming critical. Roles in AI development, ethics, data analysis, and cybersecurity are growing rapidly. Additionally, AI is creating hybrid jobs where workers must leverage both human creativity and machine intelligence to drive innovation.

  Population Fluctuations in Rodents

  How did rodent outbreaks in Germany help to end World War I? What caused the destructive outbreak of rodents in Oregon and California in the late 1950s, the large population outbreak of lemmings in Scandinavia in 2010, and the great abundance of field mice in Scotland in the spring of 2011? Population fluctuations, or outbreaks, of rodents constitute one of the classic problems of animal ecology, and in Population Fluctuations in Rodents, Charles J. Krebs sifts through the last eighty years of research to draw out exactly what we know about rodent outbreaks and what should be the agenda for future research.           Krebs has synthesized the research in this area, focusing mainly on the voles and lemmings of the Northern Hemisphere—his primary area of expertise—but also referring to the literature on rats and mice. He covers the patterns of changes in reproduction and mortality and the mechanisms that cause these changes—including predation, disease, food shortage, and social behavior—and discusses how landscapes can affect population changes, methodically presenting the hypotheses related to each topic before determining whether or not the data supports them. He ends on an expansive note, by turning his gaze outward and discussing how the research on rodent populations can apply to other terrestrial mammals. Geared toward advanced undergraduate students, graduate students, and practicing ecologists interested in rodent population studies, this book will also appeal to researchers seeking to manage rodent populations and to understand outbreaks in both natural and urban settings—or, conversely, to protect endangered species.

  Humans have used tools since our species arose hundreds of thousands of years ago. But our ability to send specialized tools, robotic spacecraft, into the heavens and leave our mark on the cosmos has spanned only the last 60 years. This book is a chronicle of our attempts to send these robotic travelers beyond Earth orbit, to the Moon, to other planets and their moons, to the Sun, to comets, to minor planets, to dwarf planets, and ultimately beyond the solar system. This remarkable international chronology goes from the early Cold War superpower competition to more recent and compelling scientific quests. From Sputnik to Cassini to Mars rovers and many more, this book is filled with many technical details and also stories of incredible hardships and successes of robotic space exploration.
