  An unprecedentedly intimate portrait of an emperor penguin colony in Antarctica, by a Bafta Award-winning BBC director of photography who observed these extraordinary birds for a year.  This is the ultimate gift for any penguin or nature lover. 
   
  For 337 consecutive days, Lindsay McCrae followed 4,000 emperor penguins amid the singular beauty of Antarctica, chronicling their remarkable year-long journey of life, death, and birth. McCrae was there as the director of photography for the acclaimed BBC series Dynasties (narrated by Sir David Attenborough), for which he won a 2019 Bafta Award. Even in the depths of the Antarctic winter—the harshest environment on earth—McCrae witnessed the most intimate moments of these beloved animals as they sought survival with temperatures reaching 60 degrees below zero. 
  An unforgettable narrative account that is poised to become a classic of nature writing, My Penguin Year takes readers into the world of the emperor penguin as no book has before. Emperors are the world’s largest penguins, and they play the game of life on the highest difficulty level, breeding in pairs on sea ice during the Antarctic winter. After mating, the female penguin lays her egg, and then disappears, not to return for months. The male penguin will starve himself for more than 100 days, incubating the egg in his pouch, while the female heads off in search of food. Finally, the female returns, and, recognizing her original mate by the sound of his call, is reunited with the father and their newly-hatched chick. 
  Highlights: 
  A decision to save penguins’ lives. McCrae details the difficult decision to break documentary protocol and intervene to save a band of penguins who had become trapped in an icy ravine, sure to die without human intervention. 
  Becoming a new father while on the ice. While filming the lifecycle of the penguins, McCrae himself became a father. He did not see his son until the child was seven months old. 
  The emperors’ uncertain future. The emperors breed on frozen sea ice. As ocean temperatures rise, their rookeries are endangered—and so too is this extraordinary species. Indeed in April 2019, the New York Times reported that “The Antarctic’s second-largest colony of emperor penguins collapsed … with more than 10,000 chicks lost, and the population has not recovered.” 
  One year in the wild Antarctic. McCrae’s narrative is also wonderfully evokes an extraordinary natural place, from the rare vantage point of someone who has spent every season there. 
  Wonderfully compelling, filled with surprising depth, insight, and warmth, My Penguin Year is essential listening for animal lovers, amateur naturalists, and fans of true-life adventure tales as well as H is for Hawk and The Shepherd’s Life.

  Before I Begin: A Manifesto on Humanity's Reckoning and the End of the World is not just another book about apocalypse. It is a bold philosophical and scientific exploration of the greatest threats humanity has ever faced—and the hidden patterns that link our past extinctions to the dangers of today. 
  From the cataclysmic asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs to the looming possibility of nuclear war, from supervolcanoes and gamma-ray bursts to engineered viruses and runaway artificial intelligence, this manifesto examines how fragile our existence truly is. But beyond the science of survival, it confronts the uncomfortable truth: that corruption, inequality, and the failures of the global system may be the gravest threats of all. 
  In powerful, provocative prose, Hatem Helmi weaves together history, philosophy, and cutting-edge science to reveal a vision of humanity standing on the edge of transformation. Will we collapse into chaos, or will we seize the chance to build a more just and resilient world? 
  For readers of Yuval Noah Harari, Stephen Hawking, and Jared Diamond, this book is both a warning and a manifesto—a call to awaken, to question, and to act before it is too late. 
  This is not the end. It is the beginning of a reckoning.

  Why Am I Taller? - What Happens...

  Is the human body built for Mars? NASA's studies on the International Space Station show we need to fix a few things before sending people to the Red Planet. Astronauts go into space with good vision and come back needing eyeglasses. Cognition and DNA expression could be affected for years. And then there's the discomfort of living in a tight space with crewmates, depression, and separation from the people you love. 
   
   
   
  Space doctors are on the case. You'll meet the first twin to spend a year in space, the woman who racked up three physically challenging spacewalks in between 320 days of confinement, and the cosmonaut who was temporarily stranded on space station Mir while the Soviet Union broke up underneath him. What are we learning about the human body? 
   
   
   
  As astronauts target moon missions and eventual landings on Mars, one of the major questions is how the human body will behave in "partial gravity." How does the human body change on another world, as opposed to floating freely in microgravity? What can studies on Earth and in space tell us about planetary exploration? These questions will be important to the future of space exploration and to related studies of seniors and people with reduced mobility on Earth.
