The sun is coming up, and so are new books that can keep you company on the beach or in a cool chair. Instead of diving straight into fiction, this list highlights nonfiction titles that cover food, sports, history, and more. A memoir from a key figure in the late‑1970s music scene tells the s
Researchers looked at how coffee, alcohol, medicines, and supplements interact with the body’s tiny chemical factories. These factories—metabolomes and lipidomes—produce the building blocks cells use every day. The study focused on women who had not yet reached menopause, a group often left out of b
The heavyweight fight beneath the Pyramids of Giza wasn’t supposed to be close. Oleksandr Usyk, then a 37-year-old champion with twenty-six clean victories, was expected to walk through Rico Verhoeven like many others before him. But the Dutch kickboxer turned boxer had other ideas. Verhoeven used
Four years ago, students arrived at Stanford excited about big ideas and future careers. Now, as they prepare to graduate, artificial intelligence has reshaped their experience in surprising ways.

Every summer, Yellowstone and Grand Teton parks teem with visitors—around 4. 76 million in 2025 alone—while an estimated 1, 055 grizzlies roam freely.

Recently, he posted about how he’s been trying to rebuild his routine despite overwhelming sadness. Living temporarily in a
A teenage Stephen Hawking wasn’t exactly the classroom star. In the early 1960s his father scribbled in a family journal that the boy spent more time at home than with textbooks. The father even called him lazy. What’s more surprising is that Hawking’s mom agreed—she worried her son lacked the confi
This summer, 11 U. S. cities will behave like they’ve been plugged into a different operating system. For six weeks, streets will stay clean, crowds will move smoothly, and public spaces will feel like a well-oiled machine. But this isn’t normal city life—it’s a FIFA experiment in temporary order.
A filmmaker once made a movie about a place where not much happens—at least not in the way people expect. Instead of fast chases or big shootouts, the story lingers on everyday moments: conversations over food, long drives in beat-up cars, and the slow burn of old grudges. The town itself feels stuc
