Sinossi

In "Birds in Town & Village," W. H. Hudson presents a profound exploration of avian life interwoven with the human experience. Through a combination of meticulous observation and poetic prose, Hudson captures the intricate behaviors and characteristics of various bird species as they adapt to urban and rural environments. The book is not merely a straightforward natural history; it delves into the philosophical relationship between humans and nature, showcasing Hudson's rich literary style that combines elements of romanticism with scientific inquiry, set against the backdrop of a rapidly industrializing Britain. W. H. Hudson, a naturalist and writer born in Argentina and later residing in England, developed a deep appreciation for nature from an early age. His diverse background and early experiences in the Pampas ignited his fascination with wildlife, ultimately influencing his literary career. Hudson wrote passionately about the need to appreciate and protect the natural world, making "Birds in Town & Village" a vital contribution to both ornithology and environmental literature. Recommended for bird enthusiasts, nature lovers, and literary scholars, this work offers a unique lens through which to view the complexities of urban wildlife. Hudson's blend of science, art, and philosophical reflection invites readers to reconsider their own connections to the avian inhabitants around them.

    “A fascinating, comprehensive, and accessible exploration of life’s most fundamental questions. If you’re wondering who we are and why we’re here, this book is a great place to start.” —Mark Gober, award-winning author of An End to Upside Down Thinking and board member at the Institute of Noetic Sciences   Is our physical universe actually a virtual simulation that is thought into existence by consciousness? Noted astrophysicist and #1 bestselling author, Bernard Haisch explores the frontiers of science, consciousness, and God, revolutionizing our understanding of the universe and what’s behind it all.   Have you ever wondered why and how the world around you came to exist and whether there might be another experience awaiting you after the physical body dies? Might there actually be a God and a heaven of some sort? Without consciousness there is nothing. The hypothesis presented in this book is that our seemingly physical universe of matter and energy is a virtual simulation which is thought into existence by a universal consciousness which we call God. Authors Bernard Haisch and Marsha Sims tackle age-old metaphysical questions such as the following:    Are near-death experiences real?  What is the zero-point field?  What kind of being could God be?  Is there some place that God could have come from?  How does the Big Bang figure into this?  It there an afterlife, and what could it be like?  What is the purpose of life?  Is consciousness all there is?  Is the universe a virtual reality?  Why is hell impossible?

    How Software Fails: A Field Guide to Understanding Complex System Disasters 
    Software failures aren't accidents, they're inevitabilities. In a universe governed by probability rather than certainty, even cosmic rays from distant stars can flip bits in computer memory, causing election machines to miscount votes or video game characters to jump impossibly high. But cosmic interference is just the beginning of how our most critical systems fail in spectacular and unpredictable ways. 
    Through gripping real-world case studies, this field guide reveals the hidden laws governing complex system disasters. Discover how Knight Capital lost $460 million in 45 minutes due to a single misplaced software flag. Learn why the Therac-25 radiation machine killed patients despite passing every safety test.Understand how a 40-kilobyte configuration file crashed 8.5 million computers worldwide, grounding flights and shuttering hospitals across the globe. 
    What You'll Learn 
    Based on complexity theorist Richard Cook's groundbreaking principles, you'll discover: 
    - Why testing can never guarantee perfection, and what to do instead 
    - How "reasonable" decisions combine to create unreasonable disasters 
    - Why complex systems always run in degraded mode, and why that's actually normal 
    - How scale transforms rare impossibilities into daily certainties 
    - Why the search for "root causes" consistently leads us astray 
    But this isn't just about understanding failure, it's about building resilience. Explore practical strategies from organizations that have learned to thrive in chaos: 
    - NASA's Mars rovers that adapt and learn from component failures, operating decades beyond their planned lifetimes 
    - The internet's routing protocols that automatically heal themselves when damaged 
    - Netflix's chaos engineering that deliberately breaks their own servers to build antifragile systems 
    - The ethical frameworks for deciding what level of failure is acceptable when lives are at stake
