Summary

Deep Sea Fossils explores the fascinating realm of deep-sea paleontology, revealing how fossils preserved on the ocean floor offer invaluable insights into Earth's history. It delves into the geological processes that preserve these remains under immense pressure and the technological advancements enabling their discovery. These fossils act as crucial indicators of past ocean conditions, such as temperature and salinity, providing a unique record of life during significant environmental shifts. For example, the analysis of fossil isotopes helps reconstruct past climates.

 
The book begins with the history of deep-sea exploration, then examines key fossil sites and the organisms they reveal, from microscopic foraminifera to ancient marine reptiles. It progresses to taphonomic processes governing fossilization in the deep sea, while highlighting the importance of responsible stewardship. This comprehensive overview connects climatology, oceanography, and evolutionary biology. It demonstrates how deep-sea fossil research is relevant to climate change studies, resource exploration, and our understanding of the origins of life.

    A concise introduction to the NIST CSF 2.0The NIST CSF (Cybersecurity Framework) 2.0 is designed to protect organizations from cyber attacks. Although the CSF was developed to help US organizations involved in infrastructure to systematically organize their critical activities and ensure they remain up to date, Version 2.0 states that "The CSF is designed to be used by organizations of all sizes and sectors, including industry, government, academia, and nonprofit organizations, regardless of the maturity level of their cybersecurity programs." NIST 2.0 is an effective and flexible framework that is well-known across the US, and increasingly across the rest of the world. It also aligns closely with ISO 27001 and ISO 22301, and all three standards can operate concurrently.This audiobook will help you understand how to:- Begin implementing the NIST CSF 2.0 in your organization- Build a cybersecurity program, adapt an existing one, or review existing security practices- Integrate the NIST CSF 2.0 with other frameworks such as ISO 27001 and ISO 22301Organizations that comply with the NIST CSF 2.0, ISO 27001, and ISO 22301 demonstrate their commitment to cybersecurity to current and prospective stakeholders.

    SHORTLISTED FOR BEST NON-FICTION BOOK BY A PARLIAMENTARIAN AT THE PARLIAMENTARY BOOK AWARDS 2021'Read this book!' Caroline Lucas'My money's on Magid.' Thandie Newton"Thou shalt not ignore this book. Magid is magic!" - Jarvis Cocker 'A man so inspiring you will have no choice but to cast your hopeless lethargy asunder' - Rufus Hound A guide to being courageous and community-minded, and to disrupting and dismantling age-old power structures in work, life and politics, written by someone who has done exactly that. Let's be honest. Magid Magid's story seems an unlikely one. He's a Somali-born black Muslim refugee who became the youngest ever Lord Mayor of Sheffield and one of the last UK MEPs. Magid has made headlines nationally and internationally for his creative ways of campaigning while not conforming to tradition and being unapologetically himself.  Magid had no idea that the poster he dreamed up for a local music festival in 2018 would go viral. The poster contained the 10 commandments he tries to live by. He had no idea that this poster would come to represent a movement that has swept him to the heart of local and European establishment politics. Now, for the first time, he reveals the stories behind each of these 'commandments'; what drives him, the obstacles he overcame and what makes him hopeful.'His voice and representation are inspirational and a force to reckon with.' Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu, lawyer, activist and author'It's easy to problematise the world, but Magid has offered us answers , solutions and even the possibility of a new politics.' Jon McClure, lead singer of Reverend and The Makers'Magid's book could not be more timely. A must read for anyone who wants to change the world.' Chunky Mark, The Artist Taxi Driver
