The spaces teem with life: owls and blackbirds, bats and mice, butterflies and bees, all drawn by pollen-rich flowers, ponds, and nesting sites. Susie takes us through the planning and construction, and how she designed the garden to blend harmoniously with the surrounding environment.From the plantings to the structures that provide shelter and habitat, every element reflects Susie''s commitment to sustainability.

The Gardener and the Moth - Susie White
Learn how to create a garden that works both day and night for moths and butterflies, attracting stunning species and helping both flora and fauna to thrive.Moths are a crucial but forgotten pollinator, often overlooked in favour of their brighter cousin – the butterfly. But, by ignoring moths, we are missing out on gardens that could be filled with more joy, movement and biodiversity. If we could build gardens that pay both pollinators the attention they deserve, we might just be rewarded with healthier, more beautiful ecosystems…Lifelong gardener and author of Second Nature: The Story of a Naturalist’s Garden, Susie White has spent over a decade constructing a lively, abundant wildlife haven at her Northumberland home. Her garden is a sanctuary for all creatures and values life, variety and growth, of which both moths and butterflies are a crucial part. In this compact volume, she teaches us how to find plants that attract moths and butterflies, how to support these insects through their larval stages, and how to identify and study them.As with so many insects, numbers of moths and butterflies have declined dramatically in recent years. Actively creating a beautiful garden that welcomes all forms of life is a simple but joyful step to take towards protecting them.

White Folks - Timothy J. Lensmire
White Folks explores the experiences and stories of eight white people from a small farming community in northern Wisconsin. Drawing on in-depth interviews with Delores, Frank, William, Erin, Robert, Libby, and Stan, as well as on his own experiences growing up in this same rural community, Lensmire creates a portrait of white people that highlights the profound ambivalence that has characterized white thinking and feeling in relation to people of color for at least the last two hundred years. White people’s relations to people of color and their cultures are characterized not just by fear, rejection, and violence, but also by attraction, envy, and desire. There is nothing smooth about the souls of white folks.This second edition of White Folks features a new foreword—by renowned critical whiteness studies scholar David Roediger—that places the book in historical and political context. It also includes an expanded discussion by Lensmire on doing research on race with white people.

Second Life - D.F. Bailey
1978, Jonestown.909 dead—two children survive.Where are they now?In the shadow of one of history''s darkest chapters, a chilling secret awaits...Two children, survivors of the Jonestown nightmare, fled through the treacherous jungles in Guyana to escape the madness. Upon their return to America, they were granted new identities, a fresh start, and the hope of a "second life."But almost forty years later, the past resurfaces in an unexpected and ominous way. In the heart of San Francisco, crime reporter Will Finch stumbles upon an abandoned Armani jacket in an inner-city playground. Little does he know that this seemingly innocuous discovery holds a cryptic message, one that threatens to shatter the lives of Will Finch and his partner Eve Noon — and make them the next victims of the Jonestown massacre.Inspired by true events, Second Life will grip you from the very first page and refuse to let go until you reach the final, heart-pounding sentence. D.F. Bailey masterfully weaves a tale of intrigue and suspense that catapults you on a mesmerizing journey from an historic catastrophe to a prophecy of mass annihilation.Second Life — where the past awakens, and the future teeters on the precipice of darkness.Author Q & A with D. F. BaileyQ: Your title, Second Life, hints at something more than a dreary 9-to-5 existence. How does it fit into your thriller series?DFB: The title is derived from an ancient quote by Confucius: “We have two lives, and the second begins when we realize we only have one.” When I first read that sentence, I thought, now here''s a different way of looking at things. It really struck me with its insight. When you consider our brief life here on Earth, this sort of awareness can inspire people to take up a cause. For good—or for evil. So I drew my title from it since it suggests a noir murder mystery.Q: You’re known for your crime fiction series and psychological thrillers with a twist. How do they relate to the Jonestown disaster?DFB: Until 9-11 the Jonestown massacre marked the largest civilian slaughter in American history. It took place in South America, in a remote jungle in Guyana, but the victims were mostly Americans, followers of Jim Jones’s Temple which was once based in San Francisco. Some argue that the event wasn’t a massacre—that it was mass suicide—but over a third of the victims were children led to their deaths by their utterly deluded parents. The trite phrase, “They drank the Kool-Aid,” is their enduring legacy. It serves to warn us of the malignant power of religious cults.Q: And two of those children escaped?DFB: That’s the fictional premise. I wanted to explore what might happen to children who survived the disaster on November 18, 1978. That’s where Will Finch comes in. If you’ve read the first three books in the series you know that Finch is not a superhero. However, he’s smart, tough, determined. Bent, but not broken.Q: Other than Will Finch and Eve Noon, do any characters from the previous novels appear in Second Life?DFB: Absolutely. Fiona Page and Wally Gimbel are alive and kicking. And Gabe Finkleman, who was introduced in Lone Hunter, is now a rising force at the San Francisco eXpress.Q: I thought the first three books—Bone Maker, Stone Eater, and Lone Hunter—formed a trilogy. Does Second Life change your mystery and suspense series books into a quartet?DFB: No, the trilogy stands as a complete, three-part unit. Second Life is the first of what I hope will be a continuing thriller series that builds on the characters introduced in the trilogy. If you liked the trilogy, I think you’ll enjoy Second Life, too.

The Nature of Our Cities - Nadina Galle
In the tradition of Elizabeth Kolbert and Michael Pollan, The Nature of Our Cities is a stirring exploration of how innovators from around the world are combining urban nature with emerging technologies, protecting the planet’s cities from the effects of climate change and safeguarding the health of their inhabitants.We live in an age when humanity spends 90% of its time indoors, yet the nature around us—especially in America’s cities—has never been more vital. This distancing from nature has sparked crises in mental health, longevity, and hope for the next generation, while also heightening the risks we face from historic floods, heatwaves, and wildfires. Indeed, embracing nature holds untapped potential to strengthen and fortify our cities, suburbs, and towns, providing solutions spanning flood preparation, wildfire management, and promoting longevity. As ecological engineer Dr. Nadina Galle shows in The Nature of Our Cities nature is our most critical infrastructure for tackling the climate crisis. It just needs a little help. A fellow at MIT’s Senseable City Lab and selected for Forbes’ 30 under 30 list, Galle is at the forefront of the growing movement to fuse nature and technology for urban resilience. In THE NATURE OF OUR CITIES, she embarks on a journey as fascinating as it is pressing, showing how scientists and citizens from around the world are harnessing emerging technologies to unlock the power of the natural world to save their cities, a phenomenon she calls the “Internet of Nature.” Traveling the globe, Galle examines how urban nature, long an afterthought for many, actually points the way toward a more sustainable future. She reveals how technology can help nature navigate this precarious moment with modern advances such as:Laser-mapping that identifies at-risk neighborhoods to fight deadly health disparitiesA.I.-powered robots that prevent wildfires from reaching urban areasIntelligent water gardens that protect cities from floods and hurricanesAdvanced sensors that achieve 99% tree survival in dry, hot summers Optimistic in spirit yet pragmatic in approach, Galle writes persuasively that the future of urban life depends on balancing the natural world with the technology that can help sustain it. By turns clear-eyed and lyrical, THE NATURE OF OUR CITIES marks the emergence of an invigorating, prescient new talent in nature writing.

Good Nature - Kathy Willis
‘This lucid and entertaining book presents compelling scientific evidence that proves what many of us have perhaps long suspected: nature is really good for us. I found it revelatory’ Richard Deverell, Director of Kew A revolutionary, science-based look at the ways nature can help make us healthier.Fifteen years ago, University of Oxford Professor Kathy Willis read a study that radically changed her view of our relationship to the natural world. The study revealed that hospital patients recovering from surgery improved three times faster when they looked out of their windows at trees rather than seeing walls.Since then, she has dedicated her research to proving this link between the amount of green space in our lives and our better health, mood and longevity. For the first time ever, Good Nature brings together these recent scientific findings and shares the simple changes we can all make in our lives. The book is full of surprising and practical ways that nature can improve our lives, such as: did you know that cedar enhances cancer-fighting cells in our immune system? Or that touching wood makes us feel calmer (the woodier, the knot-ier, the better)? Or that the scent of roses helps people drive more calmly and safely? Even having a pot plant by your desk can make a difference. A book with applications to everything from which way we walk to work to choosing where our kids should go to school, Good Nature brings the latest scientific research into our homes and workplaces. It shows how nature can help reduce the costs of healthcare and how, by bringing nature into our towns and cities, we can create a better, happier and healthier environment for all.

Second Front - Marc Milner
A revelatory new account of the Second World War—and how bitter competition between the Allies would shape the postwar world  In June 1944, an Allied army of British, American, and Canadian troops sought to open up a Second Front in Normandy. But they were not only fighting to bring the Second World War to an end. After decades of Anglo-American struggle for dominance, they were also contending with one another—to determine who would ascend to global hegemony once Hitler’s armies fell.  Marc Milner traces this bitter rivalry as it emerged after the First World War and evolved during the fragile peace which led to the Second. American media and domestic politics dominated the Allied powers’ military strategy, overshadowing the contributions of Britain and the remarkably critical role played by Canada in establishing this Second Front.  Culminating in the decisive Normandy campaign, Milner shows how the struggle for supremacy between Churchill and Roosevelt changed the course of the Second World War—and how their rivalry shaped our understanding of the Normandy campaign, and the war itself.
