The Back Story on Spine Care - A...

Dr. Drew Bednar

“A tour de force of spine care from a master spine surgeon who has literally seen it all over the course of a four-decade career! This book is a must-read that is accessible to both the layperson and healthcare professionals. I found it both enjoyable and informative.” — Dr. Andrew J. Schoenfeld, Harvard Medical School professor and Spine editor in chief
		 
A practical and occasionally provocative look at the state of spinal surgical care
		 
Just a few decades ago most spine surgery was literally a gamble: maybe you’d get better and maybe you wouldn’t. Today we have the knowledge, understanding, and technology to predictably relieve pain and neurological deficits like never before — yet many patients are still getting subpar care.  
		 
Foundational knowledge of surgical spine care isn’t spreading to the medical community, let alone to patients, whose quality of life hangs in the balance. With The Back Story on Spine Care, orthopedic specialist Dr. Drew Bednar presents case studies that illuminate the common issues plaguing patients — and their treatment — today.
		 
Back problems are among the most common health issues, and with Dr. Bednar’s insights, knowledge, and practical tips, medical professionals can provide care that leads to healthier backs and happier lives.

All Tomorrow's Futures -...

Benjamin Greenaway, Stephen...

Welcome to a journey through speculative fictions, where the possibilities of tomorrow are explored like never before. In a new collaborative approach, renowned experts, armed with their deep knowledge of justice, energy, digital money, longevity and learning, join forces with talented authors to weave narratives that transcend the future that you may currently believe is inevitable.
Situated in 'real-life' between accelerationism and scepticism, this volume of disruptions serves as a thought-provoking look into the potential consequences of scientific progress, technological development and societal evolution.
"What a wonderful and inspiring alternative to the so-called 'world-building' of today's science fiction industry. Here are some real lessons on how to speculate in ways that may actually open new potentials for human flourishing." Douglas Rushkoff, Team Human.
"This book offers an essential collaboration between domain experts, writers, and editors, fusing foresight and technological exploration to offer narratives both visionary and eerily plausible." Dr Helen Marshall, Director, WhatIF Lab, Queensland University.

"The stories and commentaries make us take a long hard look at the world we have ahead of us, knowing that the problems aren't with AI, climate, money, health, or knowledge. Rather, they come from our relationships with them. The lessons are aplenty, but more importantly, there is hope." Yen Ooi, 2023 Hugo Awards finalist and Director, London Science Fiction Research Community.
"This clever collection of speculative stories explores the possible futures that await us. Through a series of narratives that weave together technological, ethical and societal futures, we are also gifted great analysis and commentary from experts in their fields." Tracey Fellows, Futurist, Author of 'The Future Of You'.

Gardening - Greenhouses...

Maria Garrets

This book consists of 3 titles:
Greenhouse: Greenhouse gardening offers numerous benefits beyond extending the growing season. It provides a controlled environment that protects plants from pests, diseases, and extreme weather conditions, creating an ideal microclimate for optimal growth. With precise control over temperature, humidity, and light levels, gardeners can cultivate a wide range of plants that might not thrive in their local climate otherwise. Greenhouses also allow for efficient use of space, enabling vertical gardening, hydroponic systems, and other innovative cultivation techniques. Additionally, greenhouse gardening promotes sustainability by reducing water consumption, minimizing the need for chemical pesticides, and enabling year-round production of fresh, locally grown produce.
Horticulture: Horticulture encompasses a wide range of disciplines, including plant biology, genetics, soil science, entomology, plant pathology, and environmental science. It involves understanding the specific needs of different plant species, such as their preferred growing conditions, nutritional requirements, and pest and disease management strategies.
Irrigation Systems: An irrigation system is a method used to supply water to crops or landscapes in a controlled manner, typically to assist with crop growth or maintain landscapes. There are various types of irrigation systems, including drip irrigation, sprinkler systems, and flood irrigation, each with its own advantages and applications.

Chemically Imbalanced - Everyday...

Joseph E. Davis

Everyday suffering—those conditions or feelings brought on by trying circumstances that arise in everyone’s lives—is something that humans have grappled with for millennia. But the last decades have seen a drastic change in the way we approach it. In the past, a person going through a time of difficulty might keep a journal or see a therapist, but now the psychological has been replaced by the biological: instead of treating the heart, soul, and mind, we take a pill to treat the brain.

Chemically Imbalanced is a field report on how ordinary people dealing with common problems explain their suffering, how they’re increasingly turning to the thin and mechanistic language of the “body/brain,” and what these encounters might tell us. Drawing on interviews with people dealing with struggles such as underperformance in school or work, grief after the end of a relationship, or disappointment with how their life is unfolding, Joseph E. Davis reveals the profound revolution in consciousness that is underway. We now see suffering as an imbalance in the brain that needs to be fixed, usually through chemical means. This has rippled into our social and cultural conversations, and it has affected how we, as a society, imagine ourselves and envision what constitutes a good life. Davis warns that what we envision as a neurological revolution, in which suffering is a mechanistic problem, has troubling and entrapping consequences. And he makes the case that by turning away from an interpretive, meaning-making view of ourselves, we thwart our chances to enrich our souls and learn important truths about ourselves and the social conditions under which we live.
