Summary

Jet Streams explores the profound influence of these high-altitude winds on our daily weather and global climate. It explains how jet streams form due to atmospheric pressure, temperature differences, and the Coriolis effect, covering both the Polar and Subtropical Jet Streams and their seasonal variations. One intriguing aspect is how disruptions in the Polar Jet Stream can trigger extreme weather, like unleashing Arctic air into lower latitudes, causing severe winter storms.

 
The book argues that jet streams actively shape our climate through meandering paths called Rossby waves, leading to prolonged droughts or intense rainfall. It explains that scientists use weather satellites and computer simulations to study jet streams. Progressing from basic atmospheric principles to jet stream variability and its link to climate change, the book highlights the interdisciplinary connections between meteorology, oceanography, and geography, examining how landforms influence jet stream patterns.

 
The book adopts an accessible approach suitable for students, researchers, and weather enthusiasts, presenting complex scientific concepts in a clear manner. It concludes with a discussion on how climate change might impact jet stream behavior, potentially altering their strength and stability, with significant consequences for global weather patterns.

    We can all agree—birds are terrible. They're stupid and won't shut up. 
 
 
 
Featuring fifty of the absolute worst birds to fly the earth, Kracht identifies each of their most terrible qualities, details exactly why they suck, and shows you why. Including all-new, all-worst fowl, such as: the absolute waste of feathers Cruddy Turdstone (Ruddy Turnstone), the utter a-hole Blank Staring-Eyes Flycrapper (Black Paradise Flycatcher), the outright loser Dowdy Woodfucker (Downy Woodpecker), and many more! 
 
 
 
Even the author's previous bird takedown guides are no preparation for this hilariously harrowing collection of squawking, conceited, trash-eating, and even murderous idiots. The horror. The horror . . . 
 
 
 
LOVE BIRDS? HATE BIRDS?: For those who hate birds and for bird lovers everywhere with a sense of humor, this handbook is equal parts profane and funny, and—let's face it—true. 
 
 
 
ENTERTAINING AND EDUCATIONAL: This uproarious guide to all things wings includes tips for bird identification, musings on the avian population and classification, and more. Plus, each entry is accompanied by facts about a bird's (annoying) call, its (dumb) migratory pattern, its (downright tacky) markings, and more.

    The slow violence being inflicted on our environment—through everything from carbon emissions to plastic pollution—also represents an impending public health catastrophe. Yet standard health care practices are more concerned with short-term outcomes than long-term sustainability. Every resource used to deliver medical care, from IV tubes to antibiotics to electricity, has a significant environmental impact. This raises an urgent ethical dilemma: in striving to improve the health outcomes of individual patients, are we damaging human health on a global scale? 
 
 
  
In Dying Green, award-winning educator Christine Vatovec offers an engaging study that asks us to consider the broader environmental sustainability of health care. Through a comparative analysis of the care provided to terminally ill patients in a conventional cancer ward, a palliative care unit, and an acute-care hospice facility, she shows how decisions made at a patient's bedside govern the environmental footprint of the healthcare industry. Likewise, Dying Green offers insights on the many opportunities that exist for reducing the ecological impacts of medical practices in general, while also enhancing care for the dying in particular. By envisioning a more sustainable approach to care, this book offers a way forward that is better for both patients and the planet.

    The explosion of generative AI has sparked a wave of case studies showing how quickly and profoundly it is transforming businesses. Yet most of these use cases still apply the technology to enhancing existing systems. This book makes the case for why business leaders must revisit the fundamentals of generative AI and look beyond short-term, tactical gains. Tools like ChatGPT mark just the beginning of Context Aware AI―systems that grasp both the content and intent of unstructured human input. Drawing on real-world examples and academic research, we demonstrate how Context Aware AI can enhance organizational interactions, unlock new forms of collaboration, and usher in the era of the AI-Centered Enterprise. By augmenting baseline Large Language Models (LLMs) with techniques like prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), knowledge graphs, and notably agentic systems, organizations can build customized tools that adapt to individual users’ thinking patterns and the collaborative workflows they are a part of. We present a practical framework―the 3Cs: Calibrate, Clarify, Channelize, to help leaders navigate this radical shift across multiple levels of organizations.

    Your doctor said it's incurable. Now what? 
When physicians told Dr. Aaron Hartman his adopted daughter would remain a vegetable, he faced every parent's nightmare. Born with devastating brain damage after prenatal drug exposure, Anna wasn't supposed to see, walk or speak. Her diagnosis of cerebral palsy was pronounced “uncurable.” The medical system offered only surgeries, feeding tubes and lowered expectations. 
But his daughter Anna had other plans. 
UnCURABLE: From Hopeless Diagnosis to Defying All Odds reveals the hidden revolution in functional medicine that helped Anna beat impossible odds—and shows how you can access these same breakthroughs. Inside, you'll discover:Why 80% of chronic conditions have overlooked root causes (and how to find yours)The three pillars that account for 80% of healing, without expensive treatmentsHow to navigate medical gaslighting and become your own advocateThe “Triangle of Health” system used by elite athletes, now accessible to everyoneWhy medical error is the third leading cause of death (and how to protect yourself)How your diet can heal disease through targeted nutrition protocolsHolistic approaches to curing diseases that conventional medicine overlooks 
From reversing autoimmune conditions to recovering from mystery illnesses, Dr. Hartman's patients prove daily that “uncurable” doesn't mean “untreatable.” Written by a traditionally trained medical doctor who might be expected to dismiss alternative medicine, UnCURABLE provides a firsthand, medically sound path for those seeking solutions when conventional medicine falls short. 
This isn't another alternative medicine book. It's your blueprint for working with science—not against it—to unlock your body's remarkable capacity to heal.

    Rural Wrongs tells a shocking story about how the hunting bans enacted in England, Wales and Scotland some 20 years ago have proved to be a disaster for animal welfare. Instead of making life better for the fox, the brown hare and the red deer, they have often made life worse. As Lord Moore says in his foreword: "Rural Wrongs is the first serious work of its kind. It is a vivid and heartfelt tale about what happens to animal and human landscapes when people meddle in them for the wrong reasons. It should serve as a handbook for all those seeking to show why bad law must be replaced by rules that truly address animal welfare."
