The Renovation Husbands are here to help you create rooms in your home that make you burst with pride.

Where the land meets the sea, life clings to the margins in a world of relentless change. The intertidal zone is a place of extremes - where creatures endure crashing waves, scorching sun, and the constant ebb and flow of the tides. It is a place of resilience and adaptation and home to some of the most extraordinary organisms on the planet. Blending marine biology, oceanography and evolutionary science, marine biologist Ruth Searle takes us on a journey through the deep history of the intertidal zone - from its ancient origins as the possible cradle of life to the remarkable adaptations of the species that inhabit it today. Exploring the geological forces that shape coastlines, the mechanics of tides and waves, and the evolutionary arms race that has unfolded on the shore, this book reveals how the intertidal zone has not only survived mass extinctions but has driven some of nature's most extraordinary innovations. The Intertidal Zone: Life on the Edge is a celebration of one of Earth's most dynamic ecosystems - its beauty, its mysteries, and its fragility. As climate change and human activity reshape coastlines across the planet, understanding this environment has never been more urgent.

Artificial Reefs: Refining their Role in the Environment and Local Economies represents the accumulation of over 50 years of research on artificial reefs as offered through the 12th International Conference on Artificial Reefs and Related Aquatic Habitats (CARAH) held in Colombia in Spring 2025. The edited, multi-authored chapters offer an up-to-date examination of the broadest areas of artificial reefs. These include fisheries, environmental management, survey techniques, sophisticated applications of statistical analysis, socio-economics and the role of the citizen scientist in further expanding future research efforts.A general theme throughout the volume is the consideration given to historical trends in methods and developments and changes that have occurred during the past 50 years. This book builds on the strong foundation laid by our earlier colleagues and mentors. Each chapter brings together a long and fabled history of research but, more importantly, demonstrates the progress and development that artificial research as taken with the inclusion of modern technology, sophisticated analyses, and broadened goals of artificial reef deployments.Careful consideration is given in every chapter as to the relationships artificial reefs have with the local communities with which they are proximate. The subtitle of the book thus emphasizes the modern role that artificial reefs are playing in the economy of coastal communities.This foundational material will give guidance to the next 50 years of research on artificial reefs.

The Hidden Seasons

"A fascinating detective story told with humor and joy that unravels the threads of history and legend to reveal the strange stories of Britain's hill figures." – Fiona Roberston, author of&nbsp;Stone Lands A journey through Britain’s chalklands, uncovering the stories, symbolism, and shifting meanings of the mysterious figures carved into its hills.&nbsp; Across southern England and beyond, the land bears the marks of centuries—white horses, giants, crosses, badges, even a lost panda—cut into the chalk and exposed to the sky. In The Tattooed Hills, writer Jon Woolcott travels to these remarkable sites, exploring their history and the deep cultural roots that link landscape to identity.&nbsp; Part travelogue, part cultural history, Woolcott examines how these figures—sometimes ancient, sometimes surprisingly recent—reflect the nation's collective imagination, and how their interpretations have changed over time. Once emblems of pride or remembrance, they have become mirrors of our shifting values and contradictions.&nbsp; From Iron Age hillforts to modern regimental carvings, The Tattooed Hills brings together archaeology, folklore, art, literature and music to reveal the evolving story of Britain’s chalk landscapes and the people who shaped them. Beautifully written and steeped in a sense of place, Woolcott visits many of England's Chalk figures, delving into their mysteries, including The Westbury White Horse, the Long Man of Wilmington, The Cerne Abbas Giant and the Uffington White Horse. A captivating exploration of landscape, culture, and belonging, The Tattooed Hills reveals how the Britain' chalklands connect to the past and shapes the country today.&nbsp; "Woolcott is the most splendid company on this intoxicating, immaculately researched tour of chalky weirdness." – Charles Foster"An alluring blend of travel writing, cultural history, archaeology, folklore, literature, and more." - The Bookseller"Witty, evocative, and profoundly human."– John Grindrod"If I say the book is right up there with John Higgs' Watling Street and Rob Cowen's The North Road, then you'll know what to expect and just how highly I rate what Jon has pulled off here." – John Mitchinson

** A NATURE, WALL STREET JOURNAL AND THE TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR ** A mind-expanding journey into our planet's least explored and most critical frontier: the ocean - and the astonishing, ancient creatures who call it home. 'An enchanting book' SUNDAY TIMES 'Magic' TOM MUSTILL, author of How to Speak Whale For hundreds of millions of years, the seas' spineless creatures were the only animals on Earth. Hidden in the ocean's vast depths, they have adapted to thrive in an evolving world. Only now are we beginning to discover their superpowers. The Ocean's Menagerie takes us down into this incredible underwater realm. From Hawaii to Indonesia to the Salish Sea, we meet coral kingdoms tougher than steel, jellyfish that glow like lanterns, and sponges harbouring potent cancer-fighting secrets. As our planet changes fast, these otherworldly marvels hold promises for our own survival - and remind us why we must protect the ocean, our most valuable and vulnerable ecosystem, while we still can. 'Vividly revelatory' WILLIAM GIBSON 'Each page is full of wonder and surprise' STEVE BRUSATTE 'Harvell writes with tangible delight' SPECTATOR 'Thank goodness for marine biologists like Drew Harvell ... Fascinating' THE TIMES

Land of the Buffalo is a captivating book about Yellowstone's iconic buffalo that features over 200 stunning photographic images by the author. This immersive journey redefines our understanding of these magnificent creatures, revealing that what we've long called "herds" are, in fact, intricate and vital family units - networks of mothers, daughters, sisters, and their young, where familiarity truly equals survival in the face of Yellowstone's harsh realities. The book offers a poignant perspective on the daily struggles and historical context that define the Yellowstone buffalo's existence. From the relentless harassment by tourists and the constant threat of wolves to the brutal realities of winter and the devastating impact of "management" culls and treaty hunting, the author, a lifelong observer, unearths the hidden hardships endured by these animals. Through a blend of insightful narrative and breathtaking photography, with a special emphasis on their survival during the unforgiving winter months, this book challenges readers to consider the world through the buffalo's eyes. It's a powerful reminder of the near extinction of these majestic creatures and a call to remember why the American buffalo, a symbol of strength and resilience, was pushed to its most devastating test.

Now in paperback, a revealing collection from the intellectual titan whose work shaped the modern world. As an economist and public intellectual, Gary S. Becker was a giant. The recipient of a Nobel Prize, a John Bates Clark Medal, and a Presidential Medal of Freedom, Becker is widely regarded as the greatest microeconomist in history. After forty years at the University of Chicago, Becker left a slew of unpublished writings that used an economic approach to human behavior, analyzing such topics as preference formation, rational indoctrination, income inequality, drugs and addiction, and the economics of family. These papers unveil the process and personality--direct, critical, curious--that made him a beloved figure in his field and beyond. The Economic Approach examines these extant works as a capstone to the Becker oeuvre--not because the works are perfect, but because they offer an illuminating, instructive glimpse into the machinations of an economist who wasn't motivated by publications. Here, and throughout his works, an inquisitive spirit remains remarkable and forever resonant.

WEIRD WALK 'A profoundly inspiring meditation upon the lost soul of Britain... I loved every word.' MATTHEW GREEN Zakia Sewell is on a quest for another Britain. Traversing the length and breadth of our island from Somerset to Scotland, she's seeking out a different story - one that lies beyond divisive national myths and symbols.In Finding Albion, Zakia uncovers an alternative spirit of Britain that is vividly alive today.

At summer's peak at Notting Hill Carnival she hears cultural echoes that passed along the slave trade routes from the Caribbean. On All Hallow's Eve she encounters the ghosts of Empire that are still haunting the nation, and in the depths of a Cornish winter she asks if today's new folk revival could unite our increasingly divided country?Finding Albion brings a hopeful story of Britain out from the shadows, giving us a deeper sense of who we are, and heralding the promise of a brighter future.
