أنظمة الطاقة ضرورة من ضروريَّات الحياة في مجتمعاتنا المعاصرة. وتشمل أنظمة الطاقة استغلال الوقود الأولي، وتحويله، ونقله إلى نقاط الاستخدام. لكن هذا الوقود يكون في الكثير من الأحيان وقوداً أحفوريـاً؛ يُلحِق ضرراً جسيماً بالبيئة. ولهذا السبب صار تغيير أنظمة الطاقة الحالية أمراً حتميـاً إذا ما أردنا حماية كوكبنا. في هذا الكتاب، يأخذنا نِك جينكنز في رحلةٍ نستكشف خلالَها الجهود التي بذلها البشر في استغلال موارد الوقود الأحفوري. ويناقش الكتاب أيضاً آثار استخدامنا المتزايد للطاقة، والتغييرات الجذرية في تكنولوجيا الوقود، الضروريَّة لمواصلة توفير إمدادات الطاقة على نحو مستدام. ويناقش أيضاً تأثير التحوُّل إلى أنظمة طاقة منخفضة الانبعاثات الكربونية وصديقة للبيئة، قائمة على العديد من مصادر الطاقة المتجدِّدة المختلفة.

Where has our planet come from, and what lies beneath its surface? How have we come to understand its past and present environments, and what does its future look like? Thanks to scientists who study its rocks, fossils, and landscapes, we know that Earth history spans over four and a half billion years. But there is still much more to discover.

The epic stories of our planet's 4.54-billion-year history are written in strata―ages-old remnants of ancient seafloors, desert dunes, and riverbeds striping landscapes around the world. In this brilliantly original debut work, science writer Laura Poppick decodes strata to lead us on a journey through four global transformations that made our lives on Earth possible: the first accumulations of oxygen in the atmosphere; the deep freezes of "Snowball Earth"; the rise of mud on land and accompanying proliferation of plants; and the dinosaurs' reign on a hothouse planet.

Che cosa accadrebbe se un giorno ci svegliassimo e il mondo in cui viviamo ci apparisse stranamente alieno, come se fossimo stati teletrasportati in qualche pianeta remoto? Ebbene, oggi questa spaventosa ipotesi è quantomai reale. Per effetto del riscaldamento globale assistiamo sempre più spesso a eventi meteorologici estremi - inondazioni primaverili, prolungate siccità estive, ondate di calore e incendi incontrollati, violenti uragani -, ciascuno dei quali devasta gli ecosistemi e distrugge l'infrastruttura sociale.

Sixty-six million years ago an asteroid as large as Mt. Everest hit what is now the Yucatan Peninsula at a speed ten times faster than the fastest rifle bullet. Debris from the impact blew into space, re-entered the atmosphere as a swarm of shooting stars that burned the global forests and grasslands, leaving behind a thin global layer containing rock from the asteroid and from Mexico, and smoke from the fires. This layer marks one of the greatest extinctions in Earth history including not just dinosaurs, but also fish, plankton, ammonites, and plants making up about 75% of the known species.

Compulsive Body Spaces presents a spatial understanding of compulsion. Providing a compelling account of the lives of 15 people with Tourette syndrome, it demystifies the seemingly irrational, purposeless and meaningless character of this behaviour. It demonstrates how attending to the spatial circumstances under which compulsive acts, like touching, ordering, and aligning objects take place, can produce valuable new insights to complement neuroscientific, psychiatric and psychological knowledge.

Climate change: a man-made doom and gloom disastrous event on the horizon, or a false god made up by a clever devil often called Lucifer? This book offers some common sense to help you decide. The difference between a diamond and a chunk of coal is just a little "know-how." They are both pure carbon. In the last few years, man has learned how to grow diamonds in labs, not mines, but the prices are nearly the same. Sell the sizzle when you've got no facts; carbon is simply carbon.
