Is flying dangerous? How much do the world's cows weigh? And what makes people happy? From earth's nations and inhabitants, through the fuels and foods that energize them, to the transportation and inventions of our modern world - and how all of this affects the planet itself - in Numbers Don't Lie, Professor Vaclav Smil takes us on a fact-finding adventure, using surprising statistics and illuminating graphs to challenge lazy thinking. Packed with 'Well-I-never-knew-that' information and with fascinating and unusual examples throughout, we find out how many people it took to build the Great Pyramid, that vaccination yields the best return on investment, and why electric cars aren't as great as we think (yet). There's a wonderful mix of science, history and wit, all in bite-sized chapters on a broad range of topics. Urgent and essential, Numbers Don't Lie inspires readers to interrogate what they take to be true in these significant times. Smil is on a mission to make facts matter, because after all, numbers may not lie, but which truth do they convey?

Muir draws on interviews with the leading medical experts in the field, interlaced with her own tumultuous journey through the menopause and the personal stories of women from all walks of life, sharing their varied experiences and hard-earned wisdom.Muir also questions why the current medical establishment is getting the menopause so wrong, as she debunks the myths that surround hormone replacement therapy and exposes the sloppy science and hysterical headlines that have had a negative impact on women's health for the last twenty years.It's essential that we understand the biology of our own bodies during this critical period that will define the latter half of our lives. With the help of a panel of doctors, scientists and health experts, Muir unpacks the science behind hormones and ageing, and takes a close look at the different options available for treating both body and mind during the profound changes that take us into midlife and beyond.What she discovers is that both symptoms and treatment are far more extensive and diverse than we might expect. The menopause is the whole package, and the treatment needs to be too, with impacts as wide ranging as preventing Alzheimer's, boosting sex drive and protecting mental health.This ground-breaking guide is a social, cultural and scientific exploration into a criminally overlooked and under-discussed phenomenon that will affect one billion of us by 2025. And it is a manifesto for change, calling for equality in healthcare and an entirely new approach to women's health.

From the author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller Barking Up the Wrong Tree comes a cure-all for our increasing emotional distance and loneliness-a smart, surprising, and thoroughly entertaining guide to help build better friendships, reignite love, and get closer to others, whether you're an extrovert or introvert, socially adept or socially anxious. Can you judge a book by its cover? Is a friend in need truly a friend indeed? Does love conquer all? Is no man an island? In Plays Well With Others, Eric Barker dives into these questions, drawing on science to reveal the truth beyond the conventional wisdom about human relationships. Combining his compelling storytelling and humor, Barker explains what hostage negotiation techniques and marital arguments have in common, how an expert con-man lied his way into a twenty-year professional soccer career, and why those holding views diametrically opposed to our own actually have the potential to become our closest, most trusted friends. Leveraging the best evidence available-free of platitudes or magical thinking-Barker analyzes multiple sides of an issue before rendering his verdict. What he's uncovered is surprising, counterintuitive, and timely-and will change the way you interact in the world and with those around you just when you need it most.

Přestože korálové útesy pokrývají sotva 1 % oceánského dna, odhaduje se, že jsou domovem zhruba 25 % všech druhů podmořského života. Bohužel tato barvitá podmořská města postupně vymírají. Klimatická změna a rostoucí teploty oceánů ničí pestrobarevné řasy, které činí korálové útesy tak překrásnými. Korály se pomalu mění na vybledlé kostry. Smrtících hrozeb je ale víc, jako například znečištění vod, v mnoha jeho odpudivých podobách, a nadměrný rybolov. To vše narušuje křehkou rovnováhu korálových ekosystémů. Vědci z mnoha oblastí přírodních věd a výzkumníci zabývající se ekologickým významem a komplexitou korálů proto začali spolupracovat na řešení problémů, které sužují tyto ekosystémy. Vaším úkolem je ujmout se kormidla vědeckého plavidla a vyplout vstříc záchraně korálů. Najměte co nejlepší posádku, vyčistěte oceán a navraťte korálovým útesům zašlou slávu. Ve hře Zachraňte korály se z vás stanou výzkumníci a zachránci oceánů. Budete brázdit vody lodí, najímat posádku a prozkoumávat korálové útesy, které se pokusíte obnovit. Aby se vám tento úkol podařil, musíte chytře nakládat s dostupnými zdroji a energií, zbavit oceán znečištění a splnit co nejvíce misí. Jenže občas musíte také zpomalit a dobít baterky - jak ty vaše, tak hlavně ty na vaší lodi. Bez nich se totiž daleko nedostanete. V každém tahu se rozhodnete mezi akcemi NABÍJENÍ a PLAVBA. Pokud si vyberete NABÍJENÍ, získáte odměny z počítadla VB . Pokud se rozhodnete pro PLAVBU, budete umísťovat umělé útesy, pohybovat lodí, hrát karty misí a provádět různé akce. Hra bude probíhat po předem neurčený počet kol. Jakmile některý hráč překročí 45 VB, nastane konec hry. Hráči odehrají ještě jedno kolo a přejdou k závěrečnému bodování. Hráč s nejvyšším počtem VB po závěrečném bodování se stane vítězem hry. Umístěte umělé útesy a plujte mezi ostrovy ve snaze zachránit oceán! Nejměte experty a využijte plný potenciál posádky!

Co je to náboženství? Proč někteří lidé věří v Boha, zatímco jiní ne? Která náboženství sdílí společnou historii, tradice a příběhy, a která jsou naopak neslučitelná? Co přichází po smrti?

From New York Times-bestselling, three-time National Book Award finalist Gail Godwin, a consideration of what makes for a life well lived—for readers of Oliver Sacks’s Gratitude and Deborah Levy’s Cost of Living.I can''t see a way out of this. Things will not necessarily get better. This is my life, but I may not get to do what I want in it.Ingmar Bergman once said that an artist should always have one work between himself and death. When renowned author Gail Godwin tripped and broke her neck while watering the dogwood tree in her garden at age eighty-five, a lifetime of writing and publishing behind her and a half-finished novel in tow, Bergman’s idea quickly unfurled in front of her, forcing her to confront a creative life interrupted. In Getting to Know Death, Godwin shares what spoke to her while in a desperate place. Remembering those she has loved and survived, including a brother and father lost to suicide, and finding meaning in the encounters she has with other patients as she heals, she takes stock of a life toward the end of its long graceful arc, finding her path through the words she has written and the people she has loved. At once beautiful, biting, precise, poetic, and propulsive, Getting to Know Death is her own reckoning with the meaning of a life, the forms of passion that guide it, and how the stories we hold can shape our memories and preserve our selves as we write our own endings

In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, wrestling with self-sabotage, finding a job, throwing a socially disastrous Rod-Stewart themed house party, getting drunk, getting dumped, realising that Ivan from the corner shop is the only man you've ever been able to rely on, and finding that that your mates are always there at the end of every messy night out.

A practical, heartfelt guide to the art of truly knowing another person in order to foster deeper connections at home, at work, and throughout our lives-from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Road to Character and The Second MountainIf you are going to care for someone, you must first understand them. If you''re going to hire, marry, or befriend someone, you have to be able to see them. If you are going to work closely with someone, you have to be able to make them feel recognized and valued. As David Brooks observes, "The older I get, the more I come to the certainty that there is one skill at the center of any healthy family, company, classroom, community or nation: the ability to see each other, to know other people, to make them feel valued, heard and understood."And yet we humans don''t do this well. All around us are people who feel invisible, unseen, misunderstood. In How to Know a Person, Brooks sets out to help us to do better, posing questions that are essential for all of us. If you want to know a person, what kind of attention should you cast on them? What kind of conversations should you have? What parts of a person''s story should you pay attention to?Driven by his trademark sense of curiosity, Brooks draws from the fields of psychology and neuroscience, and from the worlds of theatre, history, and education, to present a welcoming, hopeful, integrated approach to human connection. How to Know a Person helps readers become more understanding and considerate towards others; it helps readers find the joy that comes from being seen. Along the way it offers a possible remedy for a society that is riven by fragmentation, hostility, and misperception.The act of seeing another person, Brooks argues, is a profoundly creative act: How can we look somebody in the eye and see something large in them, and in turn, see something larger in ourselves? How to Know a Person is for anyone searching for connection, seeking to understand and yearning to be understood.

This tribute to her life and work firmly establishes her as one of the most important photographers of her time.
