  For the average Joe, fishing may be considered a pretty tedious affair… 
  Long hours spent on the bank by some muddy pond in the middle of nowhere, hunched over a rod, waiting for a bite. 
  Early starts, foul weather, wriggling worms and writhing maggots are enough to turn most people off straight away. But for the staunch angler, this sweeping assumption couldn’t be further from the truth… 
  From wild conspiracies and wacky theories to absurd angling drama, the sport of fishing is more bizarre than most could ever imagine. From the ridiculous ghost story of a man-eating catfish to glorious angling embellishments, The Secret Lives Of Anglers reveals the hidden truths of this puzzling pastime.

  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
