Fox Jeremy: The Ecology of Ecologists

The Ecology of Ecologists

Harnessing Diverse Approaches for a Stronger Science

Do you want to change the world but wonder if there’s any point trying? Are you unsure what you can offer, or don’t feel that you fit the activist mould? Do you think activists can be self-righteous, even oblivious to the very people they’re trying to help? 'A wise, rich and crucial book.' George Monbiot How Not To Save the World is a book about doing good, for anyone who has looked at politics or public discourse and thought, ‘we need better than this.’ The fervour that drives us to change the world can create blind spots, where we don’t see our own behaviour, or disregard it because the cause is urgent. Realistic, candid and hopeful, How Not To Save the World is a sympathetic exploration of alternatives to righteousness, purity traps and other unhelpful habits. It shows that there are ways to work together for what matters, without alienating the people we need to convince. *** 'The stories in this book show how we can build bridges in order to work together for the world that we want.' Brian Eno 'Read it and weep, laugh, cringe... it might bring more compassion and togetherness in a broken world.' Dr. Gail Bradbrook, co-founder of Extinction Rebellion 'Anthea Lawson's provocative book provides us with deep insights into the tactical, emotional and ethical complexities of campaigning.' Sir Jonathon Porritt

Doing Good Without Annoying Everyone

How Not to Save the World

A novel assessment of the interplay between law and ecology in forest management Trees are the embodiment of existence: abundant, regenerative, irrepressible. Yet as more of the planet undergoes profound and accelerating climate change, deforestation, loss of biotic diversity, and a pitiless spread of pests and pathogens, which trees—if any—will thrive are increasingly urgent questions. Managing healthy forests remains factually uncertain, an uneasy dance between law and science. How can law facilitate or even accelerate the application of forest ecology on landscapes like our national forests? This book is a thorough exploration of that question from more than a century of intersections of law and science on the national forests. With a focus on law—as distinct from mere policy—as an agent in human relations and as a catalyst of scientific research, it makes the case that we can and must do better to solve intractable land management problems.

*** THE INSTANT TOP TEN BESTSELLER *** HIGHLY COMMENDED FOR THE 2025 WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR NATURE WRITING&nbsp;SHORTLISTED FOR THE RICHARD JEFFERIES AWARDPaul Lamb is a hedgelayer. He lives in his wagon and works to the rhythm of the seasons, a way of life that has almost vanished. From the end of summer until the birds nest in the spring, he travels the south-west corner of England, maintaining the ancient boundaries of our nation.As traditional management techniques are lost to modernisation, hedgerows and the wildlife they support have declined dramatically. Paul has devoted decades to saving and rejuvenating this important but often forgotten part of Britain's countryside.Of Thorn &amp; Briar&nbsp;is Paul's spellbinding account of living in partnership with the land, practising his craft with skill and preserving our heritage for future generations. Once you've read it, you will never look at the humble hedgerow in the same way again.'[A] beguiling book . . . this spare but elegant account is an unexpected delight, and as soothing as a walk down a tree-dappled lane at sunset' Daily Mail&nbsp;'Gentle,&nbsp;evocative&nbsp;and compelling' Patrick&nbsp;Barkham,&nbsp;The Oldie&nbsp;'This is a delightful book and one that deserves to enter the pantheon of distinguished Nature writing' Country Life&nbsp; &nbsp;

Regensburger Beiträge zur Digitalisierung des Gesundheitswesens

Die fortschreitende Digitalisierung bringt die komplexen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Pflege, Kultur und Gesellschaft durcheinander. Die Beiträger*innen zeigen, dass in der Pflege ein Kulturwandel in vollem Gange ist, der die Entwicklung einer kultursensiblen Pflege erfordert. Neben den Auswirkungen&nbsp;der neuen Technologien beleuchten sie auch die Themen Migration und&nbsp;darauf aufbauende Machtstrukturen und bieten so eine umfassende, interdisziplinäre Einführung in die modernen Herausforderungen der Pflege, die nicht nur für Wissenschaftler*innen interessant ist, sondern auch praxisbezogene Fragen aufgreift.&nbsp;

Real Dolls versprechen intime Körperlichkeit ohne lebendige Gegenüber und oszillieren zwischen technikethischen Fantasien und realem Begehren. Mark Bibbert vergleicht die Antizipation künftiger Sexroboter mit empirisch begründeten Nutzungsgefügen hyperrealistischer Sexpuppen. Intimitäts¿, Hobby¿ und Lust-Gefüge verknüpfen materielle, affektive, diskursive und biografische Elemente zu je eigenen Formen anthropomorpher Echtheit, Sex und Intimität. Eine durch den Nonhuman Turn reformulierte Situationsanalyse erschließt diese Gefüge, macht sichtbar, wo gängige Kritikmuster aktuelle Nutzungsweisen verfehlen, und formuliert eine Kritik jenseits technikethischer Determinismen.

Governing AI is about getting AI right. Building upon AI scholarship in science and technology studies, technology law, business ethics, and computer science, it documents potential risks and actual harms associated with AI, lists proposed solutions to AI-related problems around the world, and assesses their impact. The book presents a vast range of theoretical debates and empirical evidence to document how and how well technical solutions, business self-regulation, and legal regulation work. It is a call to think inside and outside the box. Technical solutions, business self-regulation, and especially legal regulation can mitigate and even eliminate some of the potential risks and actual harms arising from the development and use of AI. However, the long-term health of the relationship between technology and society depends on whether ordinary people are empowered to participate in making informed decisions to govern the future of technology - AI included.

A Primer

Governing AI

This book examines the applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in optimising environmental management, mitigating carbon footprints, and accelerating the transition to a sustainable low-carbon economy.Progressing from discussion of fundamental concepts to specific applications of AI in various sectors, this book highlights how AI can assist companies and sectors in achieving Internationally Transferable Mitigation Outcomes (ITMO) and complying with ESG criteria. Sectors and applications discussed include e-commerce, finance, urban planning and conservation, among others. The book also addresses the ethical considerations and challenges of deploying AI technology and the need for robust regulatory frameworks.Cutting across the disciplines of technology, engineering, and social sciences, this book will interest a broad range of researchers including those focused on sustainable development, ESG and net zero transition.

FROM THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF YOU'RE NOT LISTENING Have you ever met someone and felt an immediate connection? Are there people in your life who always seem to lift your spirits, while others just as reliably drag you down? Do people actually emit vibes? Are bad habits contagious? In Why We Click, bestselling author Kate Murphy explores the emerging science of interpersonal synchrony - the most important social dynamic most people have never heard of. This seemingly magical yet science-backed phenomenon is fundamental to human connection, bonding and attachment. By subconsciously mimicking one another's movements, facial expressions and gestures - not to mention syncing our heart rates, blood pressure, pupil dilation and brainwaves - we internalize and develop empathy for one another. Weaving together science, philosophy, history, literature, pop culture and plenty of real-world examples, Murphy reveals that our emotions, moods, attitudes and subsequent behaviours can be contagious - and can have a profound impact on our health and well-being. With curiosity, concision and wit, Murphy uncovers why being 'in tune' and 'on the same wavelength' are more than just turns of phrase and offers a new way of thinking about our everyday human interactions.

Why We Click

A guide to what we have lost in the modern world, why we have lost it and how easily it is to rediscover. Harmony is a blueprint for a more balanced, sustainable world that the human race must create to survive.Long before the phrase climate change was a universal catchphrase, the Prince of Wales was studying the impact of industrialization on the environment. Now in this fascinating cross-discipline work, he calls upon his years of research and explores the way in which mankind must work to restore the delicate balance with nature that we've lost in the centuries since the industrial revolution began.In 'Harmony', the Prince of Wales draws upon a variety of elements from our modern world, and discusses how areas as diverse as architecture, farming, medicine have each abandoned the classical balances with nature that existed in pre-industrial times. From the rice farms of India to America's corn belt, 'Harmony' spans the globe, dissecting the specific practices of modern life that have put us at odds with nature and showing how these trends manifest themselves throughout the world.Contrasting current styles of architecture with traditional design, modern medicine techniques against those of the past, he paints a clear portrait of what we as a species have lost in the modern age. More than simply another treatise on global warming, 'Harmony' tells a story that presents a clear, thoughtful look at how our disassociation from nature has helped to in the greatest environmental crisis in the history of mankind.

Die Public Health Humanities verstehen Gesundheit und Krankheit als kulturell und sozial geprägte Phänomene. Sie ergänzen die empirisch orientierte Multidisziplin Public Health um geisteswissenschaftliche und künstlerische Perspektiven. Dabei fragen sie nach der Bedeutung des Künstlerischen für die Gesundheit, interessieren sich für moralische, soziale und kulturelle Dimensionen von Gesundheit und Krankheit in Kunst bzw. Medien und bieten theoretische Zugänge für gesundheitliche Analysen an. Bezugsdisziplinen sind u.a. Kunst-, Kultur- und Medienwissenschaften, Philosophie und Geschichte. Die Beiträger*innen leuchten das Spektrum unterschiedlicher Perspektiven und Zugänge der Public Health Humanities erstmals auf Deutsch aus.

Trust is the missing skill of the AI era. This book shows you how to build it. AI systems already advise our doctors, tutor our children, and drive our cars. They sound confident while being wrong, intimate without being responsible, and authoritative without being accountable. Our instincts for deciding whom to trust are no match for machines that fake understanding at scale. The question is not whether AI will reshape society. It is whether humans will remain in the driver's seat when it does. In The Trust Code, Tiffany Xingyu Wang-a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader, USPTO patent holder, and digital safety pioneer who helped build AI systems protecting over a billion users-delivers the first comprehensive framework for practicing trust as a discipline in the age of AI. Trust is not a feeling. It is a decision. And it is the most consequential one you will make. Through three movements-rethink trust, decode AI, reclaim your agency-you will learn: <ul> <li>A new language for trust-where it comes from, what it rests on, and why your instincts can mislead you-so you create common ground when everyone talks past each other</li> <li>The hidden pattern behind major technological leaps from the printing press to autonomous vehicles, and why AI is the first to break it</li> <li>The forces driving AI forward-curiosity, greed, and fear-and how to separate earned trust from demanded trust so you see clearly instead of react blindly</li> <li>Thousands of AI risks distilled into three categories you can act on-mirrors, weapons, and ghosts-freeing you to decide what to mitigate, constrain, or refuse</li> <li>With clear sight and firm boundaries, what AI makes possible as it transforms how we create, heal, and power the world, and how we can stay at the center of that promise</li> <li>C.A.L.I.B.R.A.T.E.-a nine-step practice that turns trust from a feeling you have into a judgment you make, from the boardroom to your child's screen time</li> </ul> The Trust Code is essential reading for leaders, technologists, parents, and anyone who refuses to let algorithms decide what deserves their trust. The question is no longer whether to trust AI. It is how to trust wisely.
