Blue is the most widely beloved color — but in nature, it’s the rarest hue of all. True, physics paints the sea and sky blue, but we can’t bottle this trick of the light. And blue pigment requires such complex chemistry that blue creatures, plants, and minerals are few indeed. Artists and kings have treasured blue dye like precious gold since the time of the pharoahs — and who today can help but marvel at a morpho butterfly in the rain forest or a blue jay at the window? Science journalist Kai Kupferschmidt has been enraptured by blue since childhood. In his quest to understand the mysteries of his favorite color, he takes readers on a vivid journey — from a biotech lab in Japan and a volcanic lake in Oregon to his native Germany, home of the last blue-feathered Spix’s macaws. Deep underground where blue crystals grow, and miles overhead where astronauts gaze at our “blue marble” planet — wherever he finds this alluring color, it always has a story to tell.

A groundbreaking book on feeding children with special needs — and setting them up for lifelong feeding independence! Your Baby Can Self-Feed, Too, is the inclusive guide to introducing solids. Over 25 percent of children experience challenges with this big step — both typically developing babies and those with (known or unknown) physical or neurological differences. Resources on how to help babies who face obstacles in making the move to solid foods are scarce. That’s where this book comes in. Feeding therapist Jill Rabin teams up with BLW pioneer Gill Rapley to introduce their new proprietary take on Rapley’s groundbreaking approach: adapted baby-led weaning. With ABLW, you can meet your child’s needs by: responding to his or her signs of readiness, whenever they appear, adapting food to fit his or her abilities and promote skill development, working with your therapist to provide individualized targeted support, using “bridge devices” (for example, silicone feeders) with your therapist’s guidance. Baby-led weaning transformed the parenting landscape by replacing boring purées with real, healthy food that babies can explore for themselves — while building motor skills, coordination, and confidence. Now, every baby can benefit: Your Baby Can Self-Feed, Too!

Train your mind for tranquility and focus with this fresh, secular guide to mindfulness using the Buddha's original teachings.Eric Harrison is not a Buddhist - nor is he even religious.

Harrison realized that the clearly defined steps in the sutta, even without their spiritual context, amount to a brain-training program anyone can follow. As the Buddha puts it: "The systematic four-stage training of attention is the only way to Enlightenment."Now - informed by a lifetime spent teaching tens of thousands to meditate - Harrison offers an updated, modern English translation of the sutta and lucid guidance on how to apply it. This accessible work is for anyone interested in their mind, body, and life overall - no background in Buddhism required.

When something good happens to us, we're really happy, and when something bad happens we're really unhappy. But what impact does the good or bad event have on our happiness a month later? Research shows: absolutely none. That's because happiness isn't dependent on the present moment - we all have ups and we all have downs - rather, it's the baseline hovering between the highs and lows, which is ever-changing. In Happier No Matter What, positive psychologist Tal Ben-Shahar argues that we can improve our baseline happiness, and better equip ourselves to cope with extremes.Happier No Matter What is at once a diagnostic tool, helping readers to identify the fundamental elements of happiness in their own lives, as well as a prescription, providing evidence-based methods for seeking out and making the most of those crucial components. As Ben-Shahar reveals here, our happiness is a matter of five essential components: Spiritual, Physical, Intellectual, Relational, and Emotional (SPIRE) well-being. Ben-Shahar tackles the issue of modern happiness from every angle, arming us with strategies to manage our emotions, care for our bodies, nurture our relationships, stay intellectually curious, and live mindfully - even when it feels like everything has gone wrong.As it turns out, waking up every day and thinking "I want to be happy" has been shown to decrease happiness levels. Instead, what really works is setting tangible goals that are proven to lead to that elusive feeling of joy. No matter how uncertain life gets, Happier No Matter What will help us find stable ground.

An epic and fun history spanning from the mollusks that invented swimming to the octopuses and other intelligent cephalopods of today Publisher's Note: Monarchs of the Sea was previously published in hardcover as Squid Empire. Before mammals, there were dinosaurs. And before dinosaurs, there were cephalopods--the ancestors of modern squid, octopuses, and more creatures--Earth's first truly substantial animals. Essentially inventing the act of swimming, cephalopods presided over an undersea empire for millions of years--until fish evolved jaws, and cephalopods had to step up their game or risk being eaten. To keep up, some streamlined their shells and added defensive spines, while others abandoned the shell, opening the gates to a flood of evolutionary innovations: masterful camouflage, fin-supplemented jet propulsion, and intelligence we've yet to fully measure. Monarchs of the Sea is an epic, witty history about these bizarre but beautiful creatures that ruled the seas--and still captivate us today.

Children as young as two will delight in seeking out familiar things-a blue tricycle, a hungry dog, a piggyback ride. And as kids grow up, Wimmelbooks grow with them! The first page of each book introduces a unique cast of characters who are hidden in plain sight on the pages that follow. As older children begin to seek them out, each character's storyline unfolds right before their eyes: In Cars and Things That Go, Kevin, for example, meets mishap after mishap in his shiny new sports car. Unlike most look-and-find books, Wimmelbooks are instruction-free, inviting kids to make their own way through the busy Wimmelworld, and to craft their own stories. As kids go from page to page, they interpret the scenes and, with or without your help, create stories they think fit. Wimmelbooks offer hours upon hours of fun-and an effortless introduction to literacy to boot.
