  Trees have much to offer as soul friends, and their millennia of growth and loss provide deep wisdom, if we know how to pay attention. The Spiritual Wisdom of Trees encourages us to revel in the beauty and wonder of trees as they increase our capacity to bear witness to loss and grief. Integrating science and spirituality, coauthors Beth Norcross and Leah Rampy explore the knowledge held within the living world of trees and planted within each of us. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on extensive experience in both forest ecology and spirituality, Norcross and Rampy invite us into a deep mutual relationship with trees, whose wisdom provides comfort, resilience, guidance, and hope. Living amid the uncertainty of climate chaos and biodiversity loss, we experience loneliness, anxiety, grief, and fear. Such times call us to a fuller spiritual presence, richer connections to the world around us, and a deeper knowing that all are held within a sacred web of life. 
   
   
   
  Pulling from the Center for Spirituality in Nature organization's coursework, Norcross and Rampy offer us guidance and practices based on their experiences leading walks, retreats, and pilgrimages for over two decades. When we learn the ecology of the forest and how to be present in nature, our eyes are opened to the awe and wonder of our world, deepening our sense of sacred oneness.

  Data Equals - Democratic...

  An expansive vision for data equality that goes beyond algorithmic fairness. 
   
  When we gave algorithms power over our world, we hoped that the apparent neutrality of machine thinking would create a more egalitarian age. Yet we are more divided than ever, staring down threats to democracy itself. In Data Equals, Colin Koopman argues that data technologies fail us so often because we built them around a deficient notion of equality. 
   
  It is not enough, Koopman explains, that algorithms engage everyone’s data with the same measuring stick. The data themselves are all too often structured in ways that obscure and exacerbate stratifying distinctions. Koopman contends that we must also work to ensure that those people subject to computational assessment enter data systems on equal terms. Part philosophical argument, part practical guide (replete with case studies from education technology), Data Equals offers novel methods for realizing democratic equality in a digital age.

  We wrote this book, Statistics for Psychology, specifically to serve as a resource for schooling and instruction. After spending several decades as a teacher of behavioural statistics, the author, who became widely known for his pedagogical prowess, intended to create a textbook that would apply the most effective classroom approaches to the written page. He did this by combining the textbook with the most effective classroom approaches. To achieve this, this book employs a variety of tactics, including timely pointing and highlighting devices, strategic reviews and reminders, a focus on the most pertinent content, and timely anticipating of the student's perspective. Additionally, Evans' technique emphasizes underlying logic and intuitive conceptions rather than sophisticated mathematical formulas and proofs, and it does so within the context of an engaging writing style. This contrasts other methods, which emphasize both of these aspects. One can say that there is a healthy balance between conceptual and computational aspects across the entirety of the object. This work is suitable for students taking their first course in behavioural statistics. After experiencing this subject, the reader will be better prepared for advanced courses and direct applications. We also provide internet links to complimentary additional supplements at www.ebookslimited.com to enhance your reading experience. Teachers of behavioural statistics and their students are the intended beneficiaries of these supplements.

  What Does God Think about Technology?
  From smartphones to self-driving cars to space travel, new technologies can inspire us. But the breakneck pace of change can also frighten us. So how do Christians walk by faith through the innovations of Silicon Valley? And how does God relate to our most powerful innovators?
  To build a biblical theology of technology, journalist and tech optimist Tony Reinke examines nine key texts from Scripture to show how the world's discoveries are divinely orchestrated. Ultimately, what we believe about God determines how we respond to human invention. With the help of several theologians and inventors throughout history, Reinke dispels twelve common myths in the church and offers fourteen ethical convictions to help Christians live by faith in the age of big tech.
