Longlisted for the National Book Award 2024 'Passionate and absorbing' SUNDAY TIMES 'I learned more about the Moon by reading this book than after a lifetime of study' CHRIS HADFIELD, author of An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth'Superb: as much a feat of imagination as it is a work of globe-trotting scholarship' TELEGRAPH'Boyle's writing shines, shifting through time and space, science and sentiment; a luminous read' REBECCA WRAGG SYKES, author of Kindred 'You will never look at the Moon the same way again . . . fascinating' NEW STATESMAN'A riveting feat of science writing' ED YONG, author of An Immense World 'Engrossing' INDEPENDENT Every living being throughout history, across time and geography, has gazed up at the same moon.From the first prehistoric life that crawled onto land guided by the power of the tides, to the division of time into months and seasons for the first humans, the moon has driven the expansion and development of our world.It has inspired scientific discovery and culture from the ancient astronomers to the scientific revolution of Copernicus and Galileo, from the 1969 Apollo landings to writers and artists, and stirred an inexhaustible desire to know where we come from and how we got here.And as astronauts around the world prepare to return to the Moon - opening up new frontiers of discovery, profit and politics - Our Moon tells the dazzling story of how the Moon has shaped life as we know it, fuelled dramatic change across the globe and could be the key to humanity's future.

A Human History

Our Moon

Rocks and mountains have withstood aeons of life on our planet - gradually eroding, shifting, solidifying, and weathering. We might spend a little less time on earth, but humans are also weathering: evolving and changing as we're transformed by the shifting climates of our lives and experiences. So, what might these ancient natural forms have to teach us about resilience and change?In a stunning exploration of our own connection to these enduring forms, outdoor psychotherapist and geologist Ruth Allen takes us on a journey through deep time and ancient landscapes, showing how geology - which has formed the bedrock of her own adult life and approach to therapy - can offer us a new way of thinking about our own grief, change and boundaries. In a world shaken by physical, political, and medical disasters, Weathering argues for a deeper understanding of the ground beneath our feet to better serve ourselves and the world we live in.

Reshaping Geotechnical Engineering with Machine Learning: Theory, Applications, and Innovations explores the transformative impact of machine learning (ML) on the field of geotechnical engineering. The book begins by examining the broad applications of ML in key areas such as foundation engineering and slope stability, demonstrating how advanced algorithms can enhance predictive accuracy and decision-making. It emphasizes the importance of robust data acquisition and preprocessing techniques, which are critical for the successful implementation of ML models in geotechnical contexts. The text examines the use of machine learning for predicting soil behavior, a complex challenge in geotechnical engineering, and highlights its role in risk assessment and management. In addition, it also addresses the integration of ML with finite element modeling to improve the analysis of tunnel and underground stability. The applications of machine learning in understanding geotechnical materials further showcase the versatility of these techniques. It also covers experimental investigations, including laboratory and field studies, which provide essential data for model training and validation. Through detailed case studies, the book illustrates practical implementations of machine learning, bridging theory and real-world problem-solving.

Reshaping Geotechnical Engineering with Machine Learning

In 2018, frozen soil, collected from the bottom of the world's first deep ice core and lost for decades, reappeared in Denmark. When Paul Bierman and his team melted a piece of this material, they found preserved leaves, twigs and moss. This led them to a startling discovery: Greenland's ice sheet had melted before and was more fragile than scientists had realised.
In When the Ice Is Gone, Bierman traces the story of this finding, revealing how it changes our understanding of the Earth and its climate. He takes us to Camp Century, a U.S. military base built, where engineers drilled through mile-thick ice and into the frozen soil beneath.
Changes in Greenland reverberate around the world. Losing Greenland's ice will catalyse devastating events if we don't change course and address climate change now.

What a Greenland Ice Core Reveals About Earth's Tumultuous History and Perilous Future

Your Fears Are Melting (Iceland Love 2)

When Hearts Are Burning (Iceland Love 1)

A biologist’s firsthand account of the hunt for life beneath earth’s surface—and how new discoveries are challenging our most basic assumptions about the nature of life on Earth Life thrives in the deepest, darkest recesses of Earth’s crust—from methane seeps in the ocean floor to the highest reaches of Arctic permafrost—and it is unlike anything seen on the surface. Intraterrestrials shares what scientists are learning about these strange types of microbial life—and how research expeditions to some of the most extreme locales on the planet are broadening our understanding of what life is and how its earliest forms may have evolved. Drawing on her experiences and those of her fellow scientists working in challenging and often dangerous conditions, Karen Lloyd takes readers on an adventure from the bottom of the ocean in submersibles through the jungles of Central America to the high-altitude volcanoes of the Andes. Only discovered in recent decades, “intraterrestrials”—subsurface beings that are truly alien—are demonstrating how life can exist in boiling water, pure acid, and bleach. They enable us to peer back to the very dawn of life on Earth, disclosing deep branches on the tree of life that push the limits of what we thought possible. Some can “breathe” rocks or even electrons. Others may live for hundreds of thousands of years or longer. All of them are living in ways that are totally foreign to us surface dwellers. Blending captivating storytelling with the latest science, Intraterrestrials reveals what microbes in Earth’s deep surface biosphere can tell us about the prospects for finding life on other planets—and the future of life on our own.

Discovering the Strangest Life on Earth

The epic stories of our planet's 4.54-billion-year history are written in strata-ages-old remnants of ancient seafloors, desert dunes and riverbeds striping canyon walls and cliffsides all around us. These layers of rock help geologists piece together how our planet became the place we know and gather context for modern change.In Strata, Laura Poppick travels across the globe to show us how to decipher these primeval plotlines. Digging into four moments of transformation that shaped Earth and made our lives possible-from the first accumulations of oxygen in the atmosphere to the deep freeze of "Snowball Earth", the rise of mud on land and the dinosaurs' reign on a hothouse planet-we see how the arc of geologic time bends toward stability. Beautifully grounding and laced with awe, Strata unveils the wisdom and hope for our times these rocks can hold.

From the bestselling author of The Land Where Lemons Grow, a luminous account of Sicilian history, geography, culture and cuisine, as seen from the slopes of Etna For centuries, Mount Etna has sent lava to engulf the towns and villages, terraced fields, orchards, vineyards, and citrus groves that nestle across its slopes. But still it remains home to a quarter of Sicily's population. Why? Because Etna has always rewarded her people after every eruption with a landscape of unparalleled fertility, richness and drama. In this extraordinary new book, Helena Attlee combines travel writing with history, mythology, geology, gastronomy and horticulture to tell a unique story of life in the shadow of Sicily's most dangerous and alluring landmark. Venturing through lava-strewn fields and pistachio groves patrolled by armed guards; past dusky, basalt-built farmyards, and caves once used to store snow, Attlee gathers tales of the artists, writers, farmers, and scientists who have for centuries been drawn to this unpredictable landscape: from the early Roman, Arabic and Norman settlers, Romantic poets and Victorian geologists, to the local families who live and work there today. It is at once a compelling account of Sicily's rich and varied past, and a powerful meditation on humanity's ever-changing relationship with landscape.
