The Dark Frontier

Unlocking the Secrets of the Deep Sea

A globally renowned happiness scientist and a top relationship researcher draw on the science of happiness, love and human connection to offer a powerful framework for feeling truly appreciated and fulfilled.'There aren't two scientists in the world I trust more to deliver research-backed, actionable recommendations on how to improve your relationships.' ANGELA DUCKWORTH, bestselling author of Grit'This book might change your life. ' ARTHUR C. BROOKS, bestselling author of The Happiness Files-----------Many people believe that if they behave the right way, say the right things, or make themselves more lovable, they will feel more loved. But this kind of reflexive thinking is fundamentally misguided, causing a disconnect that can lead to loneliness, depression and self-doubt.Sonja Lyubomirsky, the world's preeminent expert on happiness, and Harry Reis, one of the world's leading experts on relationships and connection, have studied the complexities of well-being and love in depth. In How to Feel Loved they present a radical, hopeful, and science-backed shift in how to think about love. They reveal that feeling loved isn't about making ourselves more appealing - it's about showing our full and vulnerable selves to others and encouraging our loved ones to do the same. They introduce five powerful mindsets to help us feel the love we crave:A Sharing mindset - showing our vulnerabilities and inner world, not just the polished partsA Listening-to-Learn mindset - making space to truly tune in to another, not just to take turns speakingA Radical Curiosity mindset - being genuinely interested in another and asking better questionsAn Open-Heart mindset - being kind and affirming to another for who they truly areA Multiplicity mindset - embracing the messy complexity in all of usThese mindset shifts give shape to a dynamic back-and-forth process the authors call the Relationship See-Saw, which will help readers remake their conversations in ways that enable them to deeply know those they love and become deeply known by them.It isn't enough to be loved. To be truly fulfilled, we must feel loved. This book shows us how.----------- More praise for How to Feel Loved'A gift to anyone who wants to live with more joy and connection.' DAN BUETTNER, bestselling author of The Blue Zones 'This is the book we've been waiting for! Lyubomirsky and Reis marry the best happiness science with the best relationship science to identify the five mindsets for building a life filled with love.' ELI J. FINKEL, bestselling author of The All-Or-Nothing Marriage

The Five Mindsets That Get You More of What Matters Most

How to Feel Loved

Brainjacking takes us on a journey through advertising and marketing's attempts to understand and influence our thoughts and desires, from the earliest billboards to the technologies of the future. To discover how science intersects with our desires and decisions, the book pulls together three strands that have a huge impact on our lives: advertising, how much privacy we can and should have in the new electronic world, and how to draw the line between information and influence.With Brian Clegg as your guide, this is a book that will help you unpick the insidious world of brainjacking. Expertly pulling together different strands on disparate topics including AI, Big Data, subliminal advertising and more, this essential investigation shows how new and old technology and science can be combined to influence human behaviour and beliefs.

The Science of Influence and Manipulation

Brainjacking

A blueprint for how we can collectively build a thriving world, from a leading behavioural scientistEat healthily, cut back on alcohol, quit smoking, cycle to work, fly less - we all know what we should be doing. So why aren't we?The answer is both simple and radical: the world is stacked against us. From the moment we wake up, our decisions are shaped by the shops we visit, the streets we walk, the ads we scroll through. These environments are not neutral. They are designed for our convenience and immediate gratification, and to serve the interests of four industries: tobacco, ultra-processed food, alcohol and fossil fuels.Together, these industries drive the climate crisis, from greenhouse gas emissions to deforestation, and contribute to at least one in four deaths worldwide. Yet we are told the problem is one of personal responsibility - that with more information, smarter habits or new technologies, we can change our behaviour.This book challenges those myths. Drawing on decades of cutting-edge science and compelling case studies from around the world, leading behavioural scientist Theresa Marteau explores what actually works, and why those in power keep failing to act on the evidence. From taxing sugary drinks in Mexico to redesigning streets in Paris, from restricting junk food advertising in London to electing more women to office, Marteau shows how proven interventions applied at scale could transform our health and the health of our planet.Clear-eyed and incisive, this is an inspiring blueprint for how together, citizens and governments can push back against corporate power and build a better, brighter future.

How Four Industries Are Making Us Sick, and How We Can Reclaim Control

Pushback

A bold, hopeful argument for using our oceans to meet the worldwide need for food, renewable energy, and economic well-being without sacrificing the health of the planet As the world struggles to feed humanity, fuel economies and trade, and fulfill global energy needs, companies and governments are rushing to the vast blue expanse that covers two-thirds of our planet. But should we let them? A Sea of Wealth makes the provocative case for why we must harness the ocean—and demonstrates how we can do so wisely. Blending the latest science with engaging personal stories from a lifetime spent in and around the ocean, Ben Halpern takes readers around the globe to explore five key resources in the rapidly emerging blue economy: food, energy, transport, minerals, and carbon. He carefully considers what each has to offer, their environmental risks, and how they compare to land-based alternatives, while wrestling with his own feelings about using the sea. The danger is that industry and government will push too fast, too far into the ocean. Yet these expanding uses could provide environmental solutions at a planetary scale. A timely book by one of the world’s most influential environmental scientists, A Sea of Wealth tackles the question of whether we should halt or encourage the exploitation of our oceans and their untold resources—the answers may surprise you.

Exploring Applications with Geospatial Insights

Remote Sensing, Big Data, and GeoAI

Menschliche Selbstüberschätzung zeigt sich im anhaltenden Glauben an unbegrenztes Wachstum und in der Verdrängung der Folgen menschlicher Eingriffe in das Klimasystem. Selbst bei globalen Nullemissionen lassen Erdsystemmodelle weitere Klimaveränderungen erwarten, da CO¿ im komplexen Zusammenspiel von Atmosphäre, Ozeanen und Land nur langsam abgebaut wird. Gleichzeitig bleiben zentrale Prozesse – etwa bei atmosphärischen Telekonnektionsmustern und in der Ozeanzirkulation – mit Unsicherheiten behaftet.
Wachstums- und Konsumorientierung erschweren die Entwicklung nachhaltiger Lebensweisen, während geopolitische Konflikte Klimafragen zunehmend in den Hintergrund drängen. Der Übergang zu nichtfossiler Energie ist im Gange, bringt jedoch erhebliche soziale Spannungen mit sich. Ohne mehr Verteilungsgerechtigkeit und die globale Ausrichtung auf einen ökologischen Umbau droht dieser Wandel zu scheitern.
Dieses Buch stellt verbreitete Narrative zur Klimakrise kritisch zur Diskussion und macht ihre wissenschaftliche, gesellschaftliche und politische Komplexität sichtbar. Es zeigt, dass die Krise aus dem alltäglichen Handeln von Milliarden Menschen entsteht – und dass tragfähige Lösungen tiefgreifende ökonomische Veränderungen erfordern. Zugleich wird deutlich: Dauerhafte politische Rivalität steht im Widerspruch zu den globalen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit. Nur durch Kooperation und ein neues Verständnis von Verantwortung lässt sich eine lebenswerte Zukunft sichern.

How Life Thrives in Impossible Places

Super Natural

An engaging and informative cultural history of glasses that explores their origins, stigmas, future in technology, and more. Eyeglasses have become so commonplace we hardly think about them-unless we can't find them. Yet glasses have been controversial throughout history. Roger Bacon pioneered using lenses to see and then spent a decade in a medieval prison for advocating that he could "fix" God's creations by improving our eyesight. Even today, people take off their glasses before having their picture taken, despite how necessary they are. A Four-Eyed World: How Glasses Changed the Way We See is the first book to investigate the experience of wearing glasses and contacts and their role in culture. David King Dunaway encourages readers to take a look at how they literally see the world through what they wear. He explores everything from the history of deficient eyesight and how glasses are made to portrayals of those who wear glasses in media, the stigma surrounding them, and the future of augmented and virtual reality glasses, highlighting how glasses have shaped, and continue to shape, who we are. Interwoven is Dunaway's own experience of spending a week without his glasses, which he has used since childhood, to see the world around him and his newfound appreciation for his visual aids. This is the story of how we see the world and how our ability to see things has evolved, ultimately asking: How have two cloudy, quarter-sized discs of crystal or glass originally riveted together become so essential to human existence? Shakespeare famously said eyes are windows to the soul, but what about people who see only by covering theirs with glasses? Readers will find out together through this fascinating and insightful cultural history of one of humanity's greatest inventions.
