Book excerpt: Climate change demands a change in how we envision, prioritize, and implement conservation and management of natural resources. Addressing threats posed by climate change cannot be simply an afterthought or an addendum, but must be integrated into the very framework of how we conceive of and conduct conservation and management. In Climate Savvy, climate change experts Lara Hansen and Jennifer Hoffman offer 18 chapters that consider the implications of climate change for key resource management issues of our time—invasive species, corridors and connectivity, ecological restoration, pollution, and many others. How will strategies need to change to facilitate adaptation to a new climate regime? What steps can we take to promote resilience? Based on collaboration with a wide range of scientists, conservation leaders, and practitioners, the authors present general ideas as well as practical steps and strategies that can help cope with this new reality. While climate change poses real threats, it also provides a chance for creative new thinking. Climate Savvy offers a wide-ranging exploration of how scientists, managers, and policymakers can use the challenge of climate change as an opportunity to build a more holistic and effective philosophy that embraces the inherent uncertainty and variability of the natural world to work toward a more robust future.

In The Savvy Woman's Guide to Financial Freedom she gets to the heart of why you might be having problems and, lIke straight-talking American expert, Suze Orman, she comes up solutions whatever your situation. Think about it ... How many times have you said to yourself, 'This is the year when I finally get to grips with my finances'? But somehow time slips away and twelve months later you are no better off. How many times have you decided to stick to a budget only to see events get in the way and your good intentions frustrated? Do you have a nagging sense that you're not in charge of your money and that your future financial well-being is beyond your control? Even worse, in these challenging economic times, are you so stressed about money that you cannot even begin to see a way out of your situation? Whether you're figuring out how to squeeze enough money from the family budget to save for a much-needed holiday, finally preparing to tackle years of lifestyle debt, or taking a leap of faith and starting your own business, The Savvy Woman's Guide to Financial Freedom is brimful of down-to-earth and encouraging advice, and practical user-friendly methods, to show you how to get where you want to go. By following Susan Hayes's guidance you could find that it takes as little as an hour a week to check your financial well-being, to make sure you are on track to accomplish your goals and to achieve ongoing peace of mind about money. Corkwoman Susan Hayes has had a life-long love affair with business (as a little girl she held board meetings with her teddy bears) and went on to get a BSC in Financial Maths and Economics from NUI Galway. She is managing director of the international financial training company Hayes Culleton. Because of her can-do approach to resolving even the stickiest economic questions in her many media appearances (RTÉ, TV3, Today FM, 4FM, Sunday Independent) she has become known as the Positive Economist.

Book excerpt: A new eye-opener on how we can make better decisions—by the author of Gut Feelings In this age of big data we often trust that expert analysis—whether it’s about next year’s stock market or a person’s risk of getting cancer—is accurate. But, as risk expert Gerd Gigerenzer reveals in his latest book, Risk Savvy, most of us, including doctors, lawyers, and financial advisors, often misunderstand statistics, leaving us misinformed and vulnerable to exploitation. Yet there’s hope. In Risk Savvy, Gigerenzer gives us an essential guide to the science of good decision making, showing how ordinary people can make better decisions for their money, their health, and their families. Here, Gigerenzer delivers the surprising conclusion that the best results often come from considering less information and listening to your gut.
