  Along California's coastline, the Pacific Ocean is rising and pressing in, imperiling both wildlife and the maritime towns and cities that millions of people call home. In California Against the Sea, Los Angeles Times coastal reporter Rosanna Xia asks: As climate chaos threatens the places we love so fiercely, will we finally grasp our collective capacity for change? 
   
   
   
  Xia, a Pulitzer Prize finalist, investigates the impacts of engineered landscapes, the market pressures of development, and the ecological activism and political scrimmages that have carved our contemporary coastline—and foretell even greater changes to our shores. From the beaches of the Mexican border up to the sheer-cliffed North Coast, the voices of Indigenous leaders, community activists, small-town mayors, urban engineers, and environmental scientists commingle. Together, they chronicle the challenges and urgency of forging a climate-wise future. Xia's investigation takes us to Imperial Beach, Los Angeles, Pacifica, Marin City, San Francisco, and beyond, weighing the rivaling arguments, agreements, compromises, and visions governing the State of California's commitment to a coast for all. Through graceful reportage, she charts how the decisions we make today will determine where we go tomorrow: headlong into natural disaster, or toward an equitable refashioning of coastal stewardship.

  Sharing the stories of 22 different animal healers and veterinarians from across eras and continents, Dr. Schott examines the always fascinating, often unexpected, and sometimes hilarious veterinary methods employed to treat all manner of creatures. From healing dogs and horses to gorillas and even dragons, at the heart lies the evolution of the human-animal bond, which has been more cyclical than linear.

They range from Palakapya, who treated fighting elephants in India almost 3,000 years ago, to Dr. Louis Camuti, who had the first feline house call practice anywhere, tending to the cats of celebrities in mid-twentieth century Manhattan
  		Whether you have a passion for animals, the history of the medical sciences, or just quirky history, this light-hearted exploration of the empathetic relationship between man and beast will entertain and delight.

  A BRIEF HISTORY OF TIME...

  A Brief History of Time is a popular science book by Stephen Hawking that aims to explain the fundamental principles of the universe in a way that’s accessible to a general audience. It covers major topics like the Big Bang, black holes, relativity, quantum mechanics, and even the possibility of time travel. Hawking uses a friendly, often humorous tone to make complex ideas easier to grasp. 
  Main themes include:From Philosophy to ScienceHawking argues that science has taken over from philosophy as the main way we understand the universe. Through experimentation and observation, science provides more precise answers to questions that were once seen as purely philosophical or religious.The Search for a Final AnswerThe ultimate goal of science, Hawking says, is to find a unified theory that explains everything—from subatomic particles to galaxies. He sees this quest as central to human curiosity, even if it might be impossible to fully complete.The Need for Humility in ScienceThroughout the book, Hawking highlights the importance of being willing to admit mistakes and consider new ideas. Many scientists, including Einstein and Hawking himself, have revised their views as new evidence came to light. 
  The book also encourages deeper engagement through essays and reflections. In short, A Brief History of Time is a key read for anyone interested in understanding the mysteries of the cosmos and how science helps us look for answers.

  Why Am I Taller? - What Happens...

  Is the human body built for Mars? NASA's studies on the International Space Station show we need to fix a few things before sending people to the Red Planet. Astronauts go into space with good vision and come back needing eyeglasses. Cognition and DNA expression could be affected for years. And then there's the discomfort of living in a tight space with crewmates, depression, and separation from the people you love. 
   
   
   
  Space doctors are on the case. You'll meet the first twin to spend a year in space, the woman who racked up three physically challenging spacewalks in between 320 days of confinement, and the cosmonaut who was temporarily stranded on space station Mir while the Soviet Union broke up underneath him. What are we learning about the human body? 
   
   
   
  As astronauts target moon missions and eventual landings on Mars, one of the major questions is how the human body will behave in "partial gravity." How does the human body change on another world, as opposed to floating freely in microgravity? What can studies on Earth and in space tell us about planetary exploration? These questions will be important to the future of space exploration and to related studies of seniors and people with reduced mobility on Earth.
