Sinopsis

Elderly Risks explores why older adults faced disproportionately high mortality rates during the COVID-19 pandemic. It examines how age-related immune decline, known as immunosenescence, and chronic inflammation, referred to as inflammaging, increased seniors' susceptibility to severe outcomes. The book highlights the significance of comorbidities, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes, in exacerbating the effects of viral infections in this vulnerable population. Public health strategies and geriatric care improvements are emphasized as crucial for protecting older adults. Investigating the pandemic's impact, the book analyzes global health data and clinical studies. It considers how social determinants like healthcare access and socioeconomic status influenced the challenges faced by seniors. Vaccines played a pivotal role in mitigating risks, making vaccine efficacy and safety key topics. The book progresses through three parts, first introducing aging as a risk factor, then analyzing COVID-19's specific challenges for older adults, and finally focusing on the role of vaccines. Ultimately, Elderly Risks advocates for age-focused public health policies and proactive measures to enhance the resilience of older populations against future infectious disease threats. Its comprehensive approach integrates perspectives from gerontology, immunology, public health, and health policy, offering actionable insights for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and caregivers alike.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
    Coding no longer has to feel intimidating, overwhelming, or technical. A new way of building software is emerging, one that focuses on flow, creativity, and intuition instead of syntax, memorization, and complexity. That approach is called vibe coding. 
    Vibe Coding for Beginners is a practical introduction to building apps, automations, and AI-powered projects without a traditional coding background. This book is designed for absolute beginners, creatives, founders, and non-technical builders who want to create real things with code without getting stuck in tutorials, frameworks, or developer jargon. 
    Instead of teaching you how to think like a programmer, this guide teaches you how to think like a builder. You learn how to use modern AI tools, no-code and low-code platforms, and prompt-driven development to bring ideas to life quickly and confidently. 
    Inside this book, you will learn how to: 
    Understand what vibe coding is and why it works for beginners 
    Build apps and tools without learning complex syntax 
    Use AI to generate, explain, and improve code 
    Turn ideas into working projects using prompts and intuition 
    Build automations that save time and reduce manual work 
    Create simple web apps, tools, and workflows 
    Debug and improve projects without technical stress 
    Learn coding concepts naturally through building 
    Stay in flow instead of getting stuck or overwhelmed 
    Build confidence as a non-technical creator 
    This book focuses on momentum, creativity, and learning by doing. You are guided through real examples and practical projects that help you understand how modern coding actually works in the real world. Instead of perfection, the goal is progress. Instead of rules, the focus is experimentation. 
    Vibe Coding for Beginners is perfect for people who have always wanted to build but have been blocked by fear, complexity, or the belief that coding isn't for them.

    In Residual Governance, Gabrielle Hecht dives into the wastes of gold and uranium mining in South Africa to explore how communities, experts, and artists fight for infrastructural and environmental justice. Hecht outlines how mining in South Africa is a prime example of what she theorizes as residual governance—the governance of waste and discard, governance that is purposefully inefficient, and governance that treats people and places as waste and wastelands. She centers the voices of people who resist residual governance and the harms of toxic mining waste to highlight how mining's centrality to South African history reveals the links between race, capitalism, the state, and the environment. In this way, Hecht shows how the history of mining in South Africa and the resistance to residual governance and environmental degradation is a planetary story: the underlying logic of residual governance lies at the heart of contemporary global racial capitalism and is a major accelerant of the Anthropocene.

    A military historian analyzes the ingenious WWII tanks known as Hobart’s Funnies, detailing their development and their role in the D-Day campaign. When the British and Canadians landed in Normandy on June 6, 1944, they were accompanied by specialized armored vehicles designed to remove German obstacles and mines. Developed by the Royal Engineers, these tanks known as Hobart's Funnies featured a range of ingenious innovations, from carpet-laying and bridge-laying devices to a giant 290-millimeter mortar.   Examining these vehicles from technical development to combat deployment, military historian Richard C. Anderson Jr. gives a minute-by-minute account of D-Day's early hours on Sword, Juno, and Gold Beaches—the critical moments when success hinged on the assault engineers’ ability to  clear a path or breach the seawall.   Anderson also describes the events on Omaha and Utah Beaches, where U.S. troops, despite being offered these vehicles, stormed ashore without them. Through careful comparison of conditions and outcomes, Anderson assesses the vehicles’ performance and impact on D-Day's successes and failures.

    A heartfelt, honest and witty account of a young doctor's first year of practice, filled with unforgettable characters and surprising events. Dr. Mathur is thrown in the deep end by a rural Texas hospital. He arrives to find that the hospital is bankrupt and has almost no resources. He faces opposition from the other two doctors, suspicion from the people, and the challenges of being an immigrant in the Bible Belt. He is also a husband and father of two curious and lively little girls. In the course of that fateful first year, his frustrating, terrifying and often hilarious encounters in the hospital are interwoven with moving stories about his wife and children. In the ER, he treats emergencies like cardiac arrests, collapsed lungs, and impaled limbs, and at home, he works to create a calm and peaceful refuge. In the course of that momentous year, he gradually wins the confidence of the townspeople by his skills, sincerity, and compassion. He tries to spend time with his family, but often ends up rushing back to care for a patient. This poignant memoir takes the reader into a doctor's life at an intimate level. It shows that the harsh demands of a medical life can be tempered with laughter, sincerity, and humility, to create a life that is truly rewarding and inspiring.
