Beschreibung

Wearable Sleep Monitors explores the burgeoning field of sleep tracking technology, examining the science and practical uses of wearable devices. The book addresses whether these devices provide accurate insights into our sleep or if they are simply another example of health tech overpromise. It explains how these monitors work, assessing the validity of the data they collect and how that data can be used to improve sleep and overall health.

 
The book reveals that while wearable sleep monitors offer potentially valuable information, their accuracy can vary. It emphasizes the importance of understanding both the benefits and limitations of using sleep trackers.

 
The book synthesizes findings from research studies, comparing consumer sleep trackers against clinical gold standards like polysomnography (PSG). Readers will gain an understanding of how sleep data can be used to identify potential sleep problems and improve sleep hygiene.

 
Beginning with the fundamentals of sleep science, Wearable Sleep Monitors progresses through the technologies used in wearables, evaluations of their accuracy, and the ethical considerations of sleep data privacy. This approach allows healthcare professionals, researchers, and interested consumers to make informed decisions about using sleep trackers and interpreting their data.

The AI Mirror - How to Reclaim...

Shannon Vallor

For many, technology offers hope for the future—that promise of shared human flourishing and liberation that always seems to elude our species. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies spark this hope in a particular way. They promise a future in which human limits and frailties are finally overcome—not by us, but by our machines. Yet rather than open new futures, today's powerful AI technologies reproduce the past. Forged from oceans of our data into immensely powerful but flawed mirrors, they reflect the same errors, biases, and failures of wisdom that we strive to escape. Our new digital mirrors point backward. They show only where the data say that we have already been, never where we might venture together for the first time. 
 
 
 
To meet today's grave challenges to our species and our planet, we will need something new from AI, and from ourselves. 
 
 
 
Shannon Vallor makes a wide-ranging, prophetic, and philosophical case for what AI could be: a way to reclaim our human potential for moral and intellectual growth, rather than lose ourselves in mirrors of the past. Rejecting prophecies of doom, she encourages us to pursue technology that helps us recover our sense of the possible, and with it the confidence and courage to repair a broken world. Vallor calls us to rethink what AI is and can be, and what we want to be with it.

Restoring Eden - Unearthing the...

Elizabeth D. Hilborn

All spring, Dr. Elizabeth Hilborn watched as her family fruit farm of many years became increasingly diminished, suffering from a lack of bees. 
 
 
 
The plentiful wildlife, so abundant just weeks before, was gone. Everything was still, silent. 
 
 
 
As an environmental scientist trained to investigate disease outbreaks, she rose to the challenge. Despite facing headwinds from skeptical neighbors, environmental experts, and agricultural consultants, she'd assembled information. 
 
 
 
The chemicals found in her water samples showed beyond any doubt that not only her farm, but her greater farming community, was at risk from toxic chemicals that traveled with rain water over the land and deep within the soil. 
 
 
 
Even as a scientist, she'd been unaware of the risks to life from some common agricultural chemicals. Her goal was to protect her farm and the animals who lived there. 
 
 
 
But first she had to convince her rural neighbors of the risk to their way of life, too. 
 
 
 
A lyrical celebration of nature by a passionate citizen scientist who felt called to advocate for the land, earth, and creatures who don't have a voice, Restoring Eden ultimately offers hope that citizens can create change, that reform is possible.

Minnie - The remarkable story of...

Marianne van Velzen

The inspiring story of a feisty pioneering woman who sought freedom and adventure in the outback and became the first woman to work as an opal miner in Australia. 
 
People always asked her if she was ever afraid, living out in the desert alone with all those rough and scruffy men. But Minnie Berrington was not the faint-hearted type, and never had been. Being tough came naturally to her, growing up with three brothers and a family that went from riches to ruins. 
 
Only a slip of a girl, Minnie could match any man in stamina, perseverance and strength. She arrived in Coober Pedy when camels still brought in essential supplies, and water was so scarce that no-one washed. Together with the other miners, she braved the heat, the flies and the dust. Every day she waited for that special sound the pick made when it cracked opal. 
 
The first woman to dig her own shafts in the Australian opal fields, Minnie began her working life as a typist in London. But she and her younger brother, Victor, sought freedom and adventure in the 1920s and found plenty of it in the outback.
