The Princeton Field Guide to Mesozoic Plants

'Eric Schlosser changed the way we ate' Guardian 'Irresistible . . . frighteningly convincing . . . channelling the spirits of Upton Sinclair and Rachel Carson' San Francisco Chronicle This landmark work of reportage exposed how a handful of fast-food giants came to dominate America and remake the world in their image: eroding wages, damaging consumers' health and wrecking the environment. From talking to workers at meatpacking plants with shocking safety records to revealing the tactics used to target ever-younger customers, Eric Schlosser's blend of humane storytelling and meticulous research encouraged millions to question the industrial food system, and to rethink the way they eat.

The Dark Side of the All-American Meal

Fast Food Nation

From mega-factory floors, engineering laboratories and seaports to distribution hubs, supermarkets and our own homes, embark on an eye-opening guided tour through the world of manufacturing and its transformational influence on our lives and the world around us.

How the World is Made and How We Can Do it Better

Your Life Is Manufactured

'A joy of a book - enriching, illuminating, eclectic and far from a conventional science read' Richard Webb, New Scientist Books of the Year 'Carlo Rovelli's imaginative rigour, his lively humour and his beautiful writing are inspiring' Erica Wagner One of the most inspiring thinkers of our age, the bestselling author of Seven Brief Lessons on Physics transforms the way we think about the world with his reflections on science, history and humanity In this collection of writings, the logbook of an intelligence always on the move, Carlo Rovelli follows his curiosity and invites us on a voyage through science, history, philosophy and politics. Written with his usual clarity and wit, these pieces range widely across time and space: from Newton's alchemy to Einstein's mistakes, from Nabokov's butterflies to Dante's cosmology, from travels in Africa to the consciousness of an octopus, from mind-altering psychedelic substances to the meaning of atheism. Charming, pithy and elegant, this book is the perfect gateway to the universe of one of the most influential scientists of our age.

There Are Places in the World Where Rules Are Less Important Than Kindness

'Fascinating, absorbing and educative' A. C. Grayling 'Highly original and beautifully written' Dominic Lawson A compelling insight into how our imagination works, based on the latest scientific research. People often think of imagination as something used only in creative endeavours. In fact, we use imagination constantly as we reminisce, anticipate, plan, daydream, read, create imagined worlds. The truth is we live in the here and now much less than we tend to think. Imagination isn't the exception in our daily lives; it's our default setting. Yet only now are we beginning to understand exactly how it works. From hallucination to sleepwalking, from REM sleep to delusions, neurologist Adam Zeman brilliantly guides us through the latest scientific studies in the world of the imagination. He draws on research in neuroscience, the study of human origins and child development to show how the human brain is above all else a creative, imaginative organ - and that we have evolved to share what we imagine. Our brains behave in strikingly similar ways when we observe, remember, imagine or act. Imagine looking at a cube and your eye will trace the contours of the cube as if you were actually seeing it. Yet it turns out that people differ hugely in their imaginative experience. Some people lack sensory imagery altogether - they would be unable to picture their family if asked to - but still lead fulfilling, even highly creative, lives. From how we visualise to how we understand the minds of others, from the benefits of play to mental disorders, The Shape of Things Unseen dazzles and delights. It is an essential guide to the latest discoveries about the workings of the human mind.

A New Science of Imagination

The Shape of Things Unseen

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER Discover how art can improve our health, make us happier and even help us live longer with the inspiring new book from the award-winning scientist and world-leading expert. 'Every day we are overwhelmed by advice on how to live better. Art Cure is an amazing antidote to the deluge of nonsense . . . Everyone should read this.' XAND VAN TULLEKEN, doctor and presenter 'Elegantly distils the evidence for what we have always intuitively felt; that music, literature, cinema, and art are powerful universal remedies . . . A book for our times.' GILLIAN ANDERSON, bestselling author, actress and activist DIET. SLEEP. EXERCISE. NATURE. ARTS? Many of us consider making and consuming art to be a hobby, or even a luxury. But what if arts engagement - from classical music to salsa, poetry to pop concerts, galleries to graffiti - was in fact one of our most powerful tools for unlocking health and happiness? What if art could help you live longer - and even save your life? In Art Cure, world-leading expert and award-winning scientist Professor Daisy Fancourt reveals the life-changing power of the arts, including how: <ul><li>Songs support the architectural development of children's brains.</li><li>Creative hobbies help our brains to stay resilient against dementia.</li><li>Visual art and music act just like drugs to reduce depression, stress, and pain.</li><li>Dance build new neural pathways for people with brain injuries.</li><li>Going to live music events, museums, exhibitions, and the theatre decreases our risk of future loneliness and frailty.</li><li>Engaging in the arts improves the functioning of every major organ system in the body.</li></ul> And, perhaps most importantly, how art helps us not only to survive, but to thrive and flourish. Fancourt draws on ground-breaking research in neuroscience, psychology, immunology, physiology, behavioural science and epidemiology, as well as inspiring true stories of people who have experienced radical changes in their health, to empower readers to improve their own health through the arts. Informed by the results of decades of scientific studies, Art Cure is the must-read, inspiring guide to improving your health, giving you the tools to write your own 'arts prescription'. More praise for Art Cure: 'A revelation . . . Could not be more timely, nor make a stronger, more urgent case for placing the arts at the centre of our communities.' MELYN BRAGG, broadcaster and parliamentarian 'Fascinating, comprehensive, compelling, inspiring.' DR CHRISTOPHER BAILEY, World Health Organization

'Consummate and thorough' - The Times'Darkly entertaining' - The SpectatorA superbly written work of narrative non-fiction by an exciting new talent, The Anti-Catastrophe League isa brilliant study of the people and their teams who are trying to save the world.Our species has a unique genius for self-imperilment. The ancient dangers - asteroids, super-volcanoes and worse - still stalk us, but the most pressing time-bombs are of our own making. Our knack for self-imperilment, though, is one side of a coin: for we are also developing a knack for ambitious solutions.The Anti-Catastrophe League, informed by the author's experience of working in the field of what is known as existential risk, tells the story of a species that is working out how to defuse several bombs at once. From ancient risks to very modern apocalypses, the book charts the imminent dangers to the human race, and introduces readers to the groups of scientists, eccentrics, diplomats and visionaries who are trying to prevent doom.The Anti-Catastrophe League is a fascinating story of the end of the world - and what we can do about it.

'Engrossing, richly informative . . . challenges us to rethink universal health benchmarks' New Yorker A new way of thinking about diversity and what really unites us, from the internationally renowned author of Burn Real diversity isn't skin deep. Over the past 100,000 years, as humans expanded into every biome on the planet, our bodies and our cultures have been fine-tuned to our local environments. Beyond the physical demands of our climate, we live our lives immersed in ideas and norms that affect what we eat, how we move and why we get sick - all of which, in turn, affect how our bodies work. As an evolutionary anthropologist conducting ground-breaking research with human populations around the globe, Herman Pontzer has come to see much more clearly how our genes and environments combine to shape our bodies and our health: for better or worse. In this book, he takes us on a tour of the human body and the surprising ways it can change in response to its environment: from the Andean groups who have developed increased lung capacity to the Sama divers who have larger spleens. He also highlights the critical ways we misinterpret biological adaptations: in healthcare, public policy and individual choices. With so much of our wellbeing and public discourse centred on human biology, a clear understanding of the distinction between socially constructed and genetic differences is more important than ever. This timely reappraisal of an overlooked science is an essential guide to our remarkable bodies.

How the groundbreaking science of body clocks can help you sleep better, feel happier and improve your overall health 'The Inner Clock explores the strange new science of why your circadian rhythms fall out of sync - and how to get them back on track to live a happier, healthier life' JAMES NESTOR, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BREATH 'Secrets to better sleep . . . Crammed with facts, figures and fascinating scientific studies' SUNDAY TIMES Your body contains a symphony of tiny timepieces, synchronised to the sun and subtle signals in your environment and behaviour. But modern insults like artificial light, contrived time zones and late-night meals can wreak havoc on your internal clocks. Armed with advances in biology and technology, a circadian renaissance is reclaiming those lost rhythms. The Inner Clock explores the emerging science and its transformative applications: How could taking a walk in the morning and going to bed at the same time each night keep your body in sync? Why are some doctors prescribing treatments at specific times of day? And how might a better understanding of our circadian rhythms improve educational outcomes, optimise sports performance, and support the longevity of our planet? Science journalist Lynne Peeples seeks out the scientists, astronauts, athletes and patients at the forefront of a growing movement. Along the way, she sleeps in a Cold War-era bunker, chases the midnight sun, spits into test tubes, and wears high-tech light sensors to decipher what makes our internal clocks tick and how we can reset them for the better. 'Peeples has new stories and surprises . . . You will find plenty of practical tips here on how to sneak an extra 'circadian snack' into your lives, reset your chronicity and live in a healthier, more timely manner' NEW SCIENTIST

'Fascinating, insightful, lucidly and entertainingly written' A. C. GRAYLING, author of The History of Philosophy 'Extraordinary, eye-opening, startlingly original' CASS R. SUNSTEIN, co-author of Nudge 'Filled with insightful findings, this book shows that ideological extremism and polarization are not just problems to fret about but puzzles that can be studied and understood' STEVEN PINKER, author of The Better Angels of Our Nature How do our brains shape the ideologies we choose? And could our most cherished beliefs ultimately harm our brains and bodies? In The Ideological Brain, Dr Leor Zmigrod argues that when we believe passionately and extremely in an ideology, it is not only our political opinions that are changed - our entire brain can be transformed too. Drawing on cutting-edge research, Zmigrod reveals how rigid belief systems transform the way we think, act and interact with others, making us less sensitive, less adaptable and less free. Guiding you through innovative experiments, Zmigrod uncovers the deep and surprising connections between your political beliefs and the biology of your brain, exposing why some of us are more likely to gravitate towards rigid ideologies than others. She reveals the complex interplay between the psychological, neurobiological and social factors affecting our ideological choices, and carves a hopeful way forward, explaining how we can keep our minds open and free in the face of extreme ideologies. Eye-opening, provocative, and unforgettable, The Ideological Brain is a groundbreaking book that challenges you to resist black-and-white thinking and reassess your closest convictions. 'Lucid, eloquent, timely' ADAM PHILLIPS, author of Missing Out 'Deeply fascinating and beautifully written' JULIA EBNER, author of Going Dark 'One of the most brain-frying books I have read in an incredibly long time.' JOHN BURN-MURDOCH, chief data reporter, Financial Times

The Ideological Brain

Longlisted for the 2025 Financial Times &amp; Schroders Business Book of the Year Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award 2025 Shortlisted for Foyles Non Fiction Book of the Year 2025 A New York Times Bestseller An eye-opening account of the tech arms race shaping out planet, from an award-winning journalist and AI insider to the world of Sam Altman and OpenAI When longtime AI expert and journalist Karen Hao first began covering OpenAI in 2019, she thought they were the good guys. Founded as a nonprofit with safety enshrined as its core mission, it was meant, its leader Sam Altman told us, to act as a check against more purely market forces. But the core truth of this massively disruptive sector is that it requires an unprecedented amount of proprietary resources: the 'compute' power of scarce high-end chips, the sheer volume of data that needs to be amassed at scale, the humans on the ground 'cleaning it up' for sweatshop wages throughout the Global South, and a truly alarming spike in the need for energy and water underlying everything. We have entered a new, ominous age of empire with OpenAI setting a breakneck pace, as a small group of the most valuable companies in human history try to chase it down. In exhilarating prose and with unparalleled access to those closest to Sam Altman, Hao recounts the meteoric rise of OpenAI and shows us the sinister impact that this industry is having on society.

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF PROFESSOR STEWART'S CABINET OF MATHEMATICAL CURIOSITIES 'Britain's most brilliant and prolific populariser of maths' ALEX BELLOS What is the maximum land you can enclose inside a given border? What is the minimum number of colours you can use to colour in a map so that no region shares a shade? And how do you calculate the shortest route between two cities? These questions may not sound related, but they have this in common: they all explore extremes: shortest lines, greatest areas, fewest colours. They have also given rise to some of the most important areas of mathematical study and have resulted in a myriad of applications - from the legend of Dido's founding of the city of Carthage to contemporary satellite navigation systems. From soap bubbles to the cosmos, Britain's most beloved mathematician tells the fascinating stories of the people and ideas pushing the very bounds of mathematics - and the discoveries that have changed our lives.

Reaching for the Extreme

'Visionary and exhilarating ... A work of astonishing scope and imagination' TIM COULSON 'The book we need right now ... Essential reading' TOM ELLIS 'A brilliantly crafted, sweeping exposition with profound insights' TIM WHITE Imagine a future where we grow houses rather than build them. Where smartphones are living, clothing has opinions, and all human knowledge fits into a speck of DNA. A world where disease is a thing of the past, and the human lifespan is dramatically extended. To achieve this, says Adrian Woolfson - founder of the genome writing company Genyro - we must transform biology into a predictive, programmable engineering material. That means decoding the generative grammar of DNA: the language of life itself. It may then be possible to author genomes - and, if we choose, even rewrite our own. We are at the cusp of a technological revolution, driven by the convergence of artificial intelligence and synthetic biology. Currently at the scribbling phase - writing the genomes of viruses, bacteria and yeast - we will eventually author the genomes of extinct and never-before-realised species. Life will become computable, detached from its past, and no longer bound by Darwinian evolution. While offering extraordinary opportunities, this power also carries great risk and it is vital for everyone to understand what the future might hold. Genome writing can help preserve the planet, but may also undermine human nature and disrupt ecosystems. In this bold and visionary account, Woolfson provides a guide to how this might all be achieved and how we should navigate this astonishing new world, offering a moral compass to help us do so safely, wisely and ethically.
