Summary

Adolescence Fuels Growth highlights the critical link between nutrition during teenage years and lifelong bone health, emphasizing the importance of achieving peak bone mass to reduce osteoporosis risk later in life. The book explores how milk consumption and dairy products, rich in calcium and vitamin D, significantly contribute to bone density during this crucial developmental stage. 

 
Did you know that adolescence is a pivotal time where insufficient nutrient intake can have detrimental, lasting effects on bone structure? The information presented challenges common misconceptions about dietary needs in adolescence and offers evidence-based guidance. 

 
The book explains complex bone biology, including bone remodeling and mineralization, in accessible language. It unfolds by first introducing bone physiology basics and nutritional requirements; then it analyzes milk and dairy as nutrient sources; next, it tackles intake challenges, before finally providing actionable advice for healthy bone development.

 
By adopting a fact-based and analytical approach, Adolescence Fuels Growth offers valuable insights for parents, educators, and healthcare professionals alike, helping them understand the importance of skeletal health and promoting optimal bone development during this critical period.

Stranded - Finding Nature in...

Maddalena Bearzi, Carl Safina

Marooned in LA by the pandemic, a marine biologist rediscovers the delights and wonders of the natural world in her own backyard. 
 
 
 
Conservationist and marine biologist Maddalena Bearzi made her career studying the wild creatures of the deep, but when COVID-19 made landfall on the California coast this seafaring scientist found herself shuttered up ashore, her wide blue world constricted by pandemic lockdown. Never good at sitting idle, she despaired at the confines of her Los Angeles flat—until she began to find wonder in the wilderness of her own backyard. 
 
 
 
Stranded charts Bearzi's discovery of both rapture and resilience in the unsung wildlife of urban LA. With a green thumb and a canine sidekick, she finds as much to marvel at in her garden's singing blackbirds, night-blooming cacti, and industrious wasps as in the whales, dolphins, and sea lions at the center of her maritime adventures. Discovering in the quotidian an antidote to the grief occasioned by captivity and climate chaos, Bearzi reveals how each of us can take heart, find courage, and discover inspiration in the thrumming systems of life that surround us. With a scientist's precision and a poet's instinct, she invites us to look at, listen to, and revel in the everyday grandeur of the natural world—and to embrace, with urgency, our responsibility to sustain it.

Androids - The Team that Built...

Chet Haase

The fascinating inside story of how the Android operating system came to be. 
 
 
 
In 2004, Android was two people who wanted to build camera software but couldn't get investors interested. Today, Android is a large team at Google, delivering an operating system (including camera software) to over 3 billion devices worldwide. This is the inside story, told by the people who made it happen. 
 
 
 
Androids: The Team that Built the Android Operating System is a first-hand chronological account of how the startup began, how the team came together, and how they all built an operating system from the kernel level to its applications, and everything in between. It describes the tenuous beginnings of this ambitious project as a tiny startup, then as a small acquisition by Google that took on an industry with strong, entrenched competition. Author Chet Haase joined the Android team at Google in May 2010 and later recorded conversations with team members to preserve the early days of Android's history leading to the launch of 1.0. This engaging and accessible book captures the developers' stories in their own voices to answer the question: How did Android succeed?

The Future of Technology -...

Craig Dames

Technology has undergone a remarkable transformation over the past century, reshaping the way humans live, work, and connect. From the invention of the telephone and the light bulb to the rise of smartphones and artificial intelligence, the evolution of modern technology has been defined by rapid innovation and constant reinvention. Each era has built upon the breakthroughs of the previous one, creating a chain of progress that continues to accelerate today.
The shift from analog to digital marked a major turning point in technological history. Analog systems, such as early telecommunication devices and vinyl records, relied on continuous signals to transmit information. The digital revolution replaced these with binary systems, allowing data to be stored, processed, and transmitted with unprecedented efficiency. This change laid the groundwork for computers, the internet, and countless digital devices that are now part of everyday life. What once required entire rooms of equipment can now be done with the swipe of a finger on a pocket-sized smartphone.
Key milestones have shaped the modern technological landscape. The invention of the microprocessor in the 1970s allowed for the development of personal computers, which soon evolved into powerful tools for both work and leisure. The rise of the internet in the 1990s connected people and information across the globe, shrinking the world into a digital village. In the 2000s, mobile technology and wireless networks enabled a level of connectivity that few could have imagined a generation earlier. These advances have made information accessible to billions and created new platforms for communication, education, and commerce.
