  The most common way we come to know animals is usually by rote learning the specific features that certain kind of animals have according to a textbooks. We learn that they are mammals, birds or fish; but at school we rarely mention that they have a personality of their own and even less do we analyze whether we treat them well or badly. Have you ever wondered how animals actually feel?
  Have you thought about how they are treated in our society?
  The Voice of Animals promotes reflection through critical thinking on different issues related to animal ethics. By raising questions it paves the way to analyze the most common themes that emerge in adolescence regarding the lives of animals, both free and captive.

  'Achieving net zero will be the most amazing thing humankind has ever done.' - Bill Gates 
  In 2010, Bill Gates first came up with the term 'Innovating to Zero' to advocate a nuclear energy technology that would be safe and reliable, and have zero emissions. From its early use as a placeholder in Mesopotamian and Mayan civilizations to being ascribed value in seventh-century India, zero has today become the foundation without which modern world would crumble. In the twenty-first century, zero is taking on a completely new meaning - VISION ZERO. 
  In Innovating to Zero, Sarwant Singh sets out to explore a zero-concept world, where this vision can be used to create a sustainable future by achieving zero-emission vehicles, zero waste, zero accidents, zero defects, zero security breaches, zero carbon emissions, zero obesity and even zero diseases. From companies like Nissan, Britannia and Atos to a government organization like UK's Jet Zero Council to even a football club like Tottenham Hotspur, the book highlights the various fields where zero can play a disruptive role-be it among communities or corporates, in the context of social and business agendas, both today and in the future. 
  For readers, Singh provides a step-by-step approach to designing, developing and delivering a zero-vision strategy and a framework to achieve it, inspiring them to create a sustainable planet.

  “Mystic Matter – The Strangest Stuff in Space” is an awe-inspiring deep dive into the bizarre and bewildering materials that make up our universe. This 3-in-1 collection takes you far beyond everyday matter into the heart of cosmic mystery, exploring the strangest and most elusive elements of existence. Through Mystical Matter, you’ll unravel the secrets of dark matter, antimatter, and strange particles that challenge the very rules of classical physics. Why can’t we see dark matter? What happens when antimatter collides with matter? These questions and more are explored in ways both captivating and understandable. 
  In Cosmic Alchemy, you’ll journey through the lifecycle of stars, watching them forge the elements in massive furnaces before dying in dramatic explosions that scatter their atomic creations across the cosmos. This book illuminates how the universe transforms—from hydrogen to gold—and reveals the mystical science behind the periodic table written in the stars. 
  Finally, The Quantum Darkness plunges into the smallest scales of existence, where particles pop in and out of reality and the vacuum of space is anything but empty. You’ll encounter quantum fluctuations, strange forces, and the very limits of our scientific understanding. 
  Whether you're a casual space enthusiast or a seasoned science lover, this book provides a thrilling, accessible, and mind-expanding tour of the most puzzling phenomena in modern astrophysics. Discover how the invisible shapes the visible, how stars play alchemist, and how our universe is woven together by forces still beyond our grasp. With rich insights and vivid explanations, Mystic Matter invites you to explore a universe far stranger—and more wondrous—than fiction.

  The First History of Man

  MD John Bershof

  In the spirit of medieval writer Chaucer, all human activity lies within the artist’s scope, the History of Man Series uses medicine as a jumping off point to explore precisely that, all history, all science, all human activity since the beginning of time. The jumping off style of writing takes the reader, the listener into worlds unknown, always returning to base, only to jump off again. History of Man are stories and tales of nearly everything. 
  The First History of Man uses infection in general—bacteria, viruses, fungus, parasites, epidemics & pandemics, COVID-19—to lay the foundation for the next five books, narratives and stories that delve deeper into human infectious diseases. This first volume jumps off into accounts of the Big Bang Theory—the real one, but also the sitcom—the origin of the Universe, from atoms to DNA to us and how exactly it happened. In our journey we’ll explore Einstein and Newton who were probably aliens (he said jokingly), the Roman Empire, British history and all those wives of King Henry VIII, the why and how of the Protestant Reformation, why Pluto lost its planet status in our solar system, what exactly is the sweet spot of a solar system, all the while digging up some archeology, and even paying a visit with Dr. Livingstone, I presume. We’ll trudge from the top of Everest, the highest point on Earth, to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the lowest point on Earth, and LUA in between, the Last Universal Ancestor that gave rise to all life on Earth.
