Beschreibung

Dog Scent Tracking explores the fascinating world of canine olfaction, revealing how dogs use their extraordinary sense of smell in various applications, such as search and rescue and wildlife conservation. It details the biological mechanisms behind a dog's ability to detect and track scents, including how their olfactory system evolved from their wolf ancestors. Readers will discover that a dog's nose isn't just more sensitive than a human's; it processes scent information in a fundamentally different way. The book uniquely combines the biology of canine olfaction with the science of scent dispersal, examining how environmental factors like weather and terrain affect scent tracking. By understanding these factors, handlers can optimize training methods and improve the effectiveness of detection canines. The book progresses from the anatomy and physiology of the canine olfactory system to the practical applications of scent tracking, including law enforcement, medical scent detection, and wildlife conservation.

    Let the Wildflowers Grow: One Mother's Journey through Adoption, Attachment and Borderline Personality Disorder is a beautiful story of mother-daughter love that turns to anguish in the challenges of mental health. It follows the poignant narrative of Brigitte Becker, who along with her husband and son, open their heart and home to a bright, beautiful ten-year-old from Ukraine named Anna, embarking together on a journey of adjusting this cherished young girl to the United States. 
    As mother and daughter bond in shared adventures, the family grows closer. However, signs of attachment and borderline personality disorders emerge in Anna, thrusting Brigitte, like any mother in this situation, into uncharted territory.  
    As Anna grapples with the challenge of regulating her emotions amidst the escalating battle with mental illness, nonetheless she is steadfast in her resolve to assert herself as an independent human being. Meanwhile, Brigitte seeks out every medical means of help possible. Driven by a fear of abandonment, Anna faces unstable emotional states that erupt in risky behavior. 
    In the quiet moments of reflection, as she gazes out at the wildflowers dancing in the breeze, Brigitte’s heart aches with the weight of her responses and decisions. But amidst the sadness, there’s determination, a resolve to let things happen naturally, that they will work out over time. Will they? Do they? 
    This riveting, reads-like-a-novel memoir, is for you if you are a parent of a child with mental illness and are looking for resources, support, and understanding of the unique challenges for adoptees and their families. Through her candid yet heart-wrenching writing, Brigitte gives you a real-life look into a mother’s path towards happiness and healing—as her daughter looks ahead, striving for independence amidst an uncertain future.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  Wallace D Wattles was an American author, born in 1911.  
     
    He was probably most famous for his book "The Science of Getting Rich", although he wrote several other books describing the Science of Being Well, and the Science of Being Great.  
     
    He was a man very knowledgeable about the world and the natural laws that exist, and this short book is a collection of his writings on what he termed scientific principles, or natural laws. 
     
    He first addresses the topic of Time, in "The Eternal Now", and how it is most important to think in the "now" rather than the future, or past. 
     
    He then goes on to "speak" about two natural laws of the universe, which are related - The Law of Attraction, and The Law of Cause and Effect. These are about how we attract in life what we habitually think about, and how for every effect, there is a cause. 
     
    Lastly, he goes on to discuss Quantum Physics, and how our world is put together. 
     
    The four parts end with a summary created by myself, Peter Burgess, who compiled these four topics, in which I provide a short overview of each, together with my own interpretation of an aspect of quantum physics.   
     
    These are quite technical topics and should ideally be listened to with the ebook open, in order to follow, and read the text. They may need listening to, a few times, to fully understand what he is saying, but these books contain some really useful information about how our world works, and how best to achieve what it is that you desire in life. 
     
    Definitely worth a listen.

    "Easy and enjoyable to read, without loss of scientific and philosophical depth and rigor. … The reader will find the book difficult to put down."
    
    Bernd R. Hornung, Journal of Sociocybernetics
    Conversations for skeptics
    
    How real is reality? Are our images of the world mere inventions or do they correspond to an external reality? Is it possible to know the truth?
    
    These are some of the questions that are discussed in this book by physicist and philosopher Heinz von Foerster and media studies scholar Bernhard Poerksen. Together they explore the limits of our cognitive capacities; they debate the apparent objectivity of our sensual perception and the consequences of "truth terrorism"; and they talk about the relationship between knowledge and ethics, sight and insight.
    The authors:
    Heinz von Foerster (1911–2002) completed his studies of physics in Vienna and worked at different research labs before emigrating to the United States in 1949. In 1957, at the University of Illinois, he established the Biological Computer Lab (BCL) – the cradle of the epistemology that would later cause a stir under the label of "constructivism." The focus was on analyzing the logical and methodological problems that in evitably arise when one seeks to know knowledge. He is the author of numerous books, including Understanding Understanding: Essays on Cybernetics and Cognition.
    Bernhard Poerksen is professor of media studies at the University of Tübingen with a particular research interest in the new media age. His books about systemic thinking have been translated into many languages. In 2008 he was voted "Professor of the Year" in honor of his teaching. His most recent book publications in English include From Being to Doing: The Origins of the Biology of Cognition (with Humberto Maturana), The Unleashed Scandal: The End of Control in the Digital Age (with Hanne Detel), and Digital Fever: Taming the Big Business of Disinformation.

    How To Make It In Nursing As A...

    Are you a man looking to get into nursing and do not know how to? 
    Do you wish to understand just what it takes to become a nurse in a female-dominated field? 
    If so, then you have come to the right place. 
    This book will usher you into the world of being a male nurse and thriving at it! 
    For a better part of the last decade, nursing has been considered a female domain, with men being looked at as anomalies in the field. The view that men cannot make good nurses has thus led to widespread stereotypes of men who get into the field. Men in nursing are generally often viewed with suspicion, with people even questioning their sexual orientation.  
    However, as you will learn in this book, nursing had originally been a field meant for men. During the old periods up until the 19thcentury, large-scale caregiving was a role that was meant for men. Thus, this already defeats the stereotype that men lack the necessary temperament to get into nursing. 
    Furthermore, men who get into nursing consider it the most fulfilling profession that they could choose and simply want to care for people. 
    So, perhaps you may be wondering… 
    Why is it hard for men to get into nursing? 
    What are some of the challenges male nurses face in the profession? 
    How do female nurses react to and treat their male colleagues? 
    What are male nurses doing to change the negative perception of men in the field? 
    What does the future hold for male nurses? 
    If these and many questions are bothering you, then this is the book that answers them and more, as it covers the ins and outs of becoming a male nurse and how to make the best of it.
