  A journey like no other.
  Acclaimed nature writer Neil Ansell has suffered from progressive hearing loss his whole life. As his world is becoming ever more silent, he suddenly hears something quite unexpected – the haunting call of the great northern diver. It is this extraordinary experience which makes him realise that there might still be remarkable sounds in nature within his reach – if he can only find himself in the right place at the right time.
  This moving book charts Neil's mission to hear rare and elusive creatures that he had not previously encountered. This journey takes him from the mountaintops and islands of the Scottish Highlands to the marshes of England and the hills of Wales. Many of these species are in grave danger of extinction, so the future Neil faces, devoid of their distinctive calls, is one we all must fight to prevent.

  Lainie Chait was diagnosed with epilepsy in 1991 at the age of 19. At the time of diagnosis, there were three roads to go down - avoidance, acceptance or rebellion.  Avoidance was her first choice. Falling in the shower, brain jerks and muscle twitches when she was 14 was the beginning of something 'not quite right' about her early teenage years. She hid these symptoms from family and friends for three years in the hope that they were just ‘growing pains’.As she started reaching the age of independence (18 in Australia) and started to drink, stay up late and go out partying, these ‘growing pains’ turned into a seizure condition that could no longer be ignored.  Eventually doctors, diagnoses and medicines were brought into the equation.She tried acceptance but at the time it wasn’t the right fit, as the very thought of taming down her young, fun life and replace it with medicine, early nights and mature personal decisions was just too hard to fathom. Rebellion then became her main focus and she achieved this by partying, staying up late and ignoring the triggers. This mindset carried with it an enormous amount of embarrassment and shame.  She constantly felt like a failure after each of the 250+ Grand Mal seizures she endured over 25 years.  But she wasn’t just rebelling against a diagnosis; she was rebelling against a system that has the capacity to make you feel better but at a price that also keeps you in a place of perpetual illness.  She needed to know why she had epilepsy and the only way she was going to find this out was to take herself off all the meds and research it, live it, feel it, document and manage it for herself.She did this much to the horror of her doctors, friends and family.  She went on a journey to get to know her brain and what makes it tick and glitch. The journey was about finding out just how much control she did and didn’t have over her seizures.Electro Girl is Lainie Chait's story of resilience, growth and self advocacy.

  Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting systems, networks, and programs from digital attacks that aim to access, change, or destroy sensitive information, extort money from users, or interrupt normal business processes. In the modern digital world, where every aspect of personal life, business, and government is connected through information technology, the importance of cybersecurity has grown exponentially. 
  This comprehensive exploration of cybersecurity provides a deep understanding of the concepts, technologies, practices, and challenges in the field. It covers the history and evolution of cybersecurity, common types of cyber threats (such as malware, phishing, ransomware, and DDoS attacks), critical cybersecurity principles (like confidentiality, integrity, and availability), and the various domains involved, including network security, application security, information security, and operational security. 
  It further examines cybersecurity frameworks and standards, risk management strategies, the role of cryptography, security policies, and incident response procedures. Real-world case studies are analyzed to highlight the consequences of cyber-attacks and the lessons learned. The final sections address cybersecurity in emerging technologies (like AI, IoT, and cloud computing), international regulations, and the future of global cybersecurity. 
  This guide is ideal for students, professionals, and anyone interested in understanding the mechanisms, tools, and importance of defending digital infrastructure in the 21st century.

  "Advanced Java: From Beginner to Professional: Navigating the World of Java," is a textbook where any person aspiring to do Java programming can get very good master over the Java language. This book carries everything the Java programming learner needs to know or where an experienced programmer would require, all the way through from simple grammar to powerful programming techniques, but addresses every topic in the subject, right from setting it up and basic grammar on to very sophisticated coding. 
  It is a nice, clear overview of the Java ecosystem that starts off with a very solid foundation when it walks readers through key ideas like classes, inheritance, object-oriented programming, and encapsulation. 
  The book then develops into complex topics such as Java's collections framework, exception handling, multithreaded programs, and streams. This will ensure that all readers are equipped with effective, high-performance code to write. Every chapter follows a helpful task and many coding examples that will encourage readers to gain practical experience and repetition to reinforce the learning. 
  They will learn Java's Stream A-P-I, function programming, lambdas, method references, and functional interfaces. These are necessary if the reader wants clear and current Java code. And these skills will help an aspirant work as a professional developer since the focus here is on solving problems, which will involve use cases for Java in practice projects. 
  At the end of it all, the reader will be confident in and equipped with enough know-how to take up realistic applications, write robust programs that can be relied upon, and significantly contribute to the realm of software development. If you want to learn one of the world's toughest yet most versatile programming languages, "Advanced Java" is your bible.

  I Never Walk the Halls Alone

  Donna, an experienced nurse, is a master storyteller. Nurses help so many people during tragedy and heartache. Walking down hospital halls can be a frightening heart-breaking experience. Yet, some degree of hope and comfort can be found through sharing life-changing true experiences from friends, patients, and family.  A Christian perspective is given as scripture is creatively threaded throughout the chapters.  Consider the gems of our private collection of personal stories that can only be enjoyed if shared. Grandma will simplify the understanding of salvation with apple pie, in "Salvation by the Slice." Meet Louie in the ICU, an underground miner who survived an accident and encountered God in the most amazing way. Enjoy the way God orchestrates life when He is "My Paul Harvey God." Perhaps in  your life the word coincidence will be transformed into God-incidence. Ponder the power available to all who pray as you examine "Quality Connections."Scripture often states God's "Expectations and Promises" are connected. The topics of honor, giving, forgiving, and love saturated with obedience are helpful reminders of what we do well and what we may consider improving. The rich messages of "The Whatever Principle" will be familiar to so many. The chapters, "God's Gear" and "Enemy Tactics" shine a new perspective on those who choose to threaten or tarnish a persons reputation. And the chapter, "Are you Looking for a Sign" shares one of my favorite memories of a family of strong faith in the face of a loved one's death. Come seeking and you're sure to find;A blessing for your heart and mind,Some comfort for your pain.Listen to these words and I will tellstories that can make you well.God's grace will fall like rain.Lay down your heartaches and your fears.Accept His love. Let Him draw near.Your life will never be the same!Donna
