Sinopse

Fastest Elevators explores the cutting-edge technology driving high-speed vertical transportation and its profound impact on modern architecture and urban planning. It delves into how advancements in elevator engineering have enabled the construction of supertall skyscrapers, reshaping our experience of vertical travel. The book highlights intriguing facts, such as the pivotal role of reliable safety brakes and electric motors in paving the way for today's sophisticated, computer-controlled elevator systems. Furthermore, it emphasizes how extremely rapid elevators minimize travel time, improve building accessibility, and enhance the viability of vertical urban environments. The book uniquely combines mechanical engineering, architectural design, and urban planning perspectives to offer a comprehensive understanding of elevator systems.

 
Beginning with fundamental principles of elevator engineering, like drive systems and safety mechanisms, it progresses to case studies of the world’s fastest elevators in iconic buildings such as the Shanghai Tower, detailing design and construction challenges. The later sections explore future innovations, including ropeless elevators and magnetic levitation systems. Fastest Elevators distinguishes itself by providing technical details, performance analyses, and engineering insights into the creation of high-speed elevators, aimed at industry professionals and technology enthusiasts alike.

    River Duddon The: A Series of...

    Located in a part of Cumbria that was once part of Lancashire, the River Duddon rises in the high fells of the Lake District and flows for 25 miles through varied scenery before disappearing into the sands between Millom and Barrow-in-Furness. Wordsworth’s series of sonnets, inspired by his walks along the river, were written over a period of years, but are arranged so as to follow its downward course from the fells to the sea. Part One of this reading consists of the 33 sonnets and postscript that were first published as a series in 1820. Later editions of Wordsworth’s works included a 34th sonnet, which is appended to Part One. Part Two contains Wordsworth’s rather eccentric notes on the sonnets, which are largely taken up by an account of the remarkable career of the Reverend ‘Wonderful’ Walker, who lived to the age of 94 after serving as curate of Seathwaite chapel for 67 years from 1735 to 1802. I have read the sonnets using a northern English accent as I believe Wordsworth may have read them himself. (Summary by Phil Benson)

    Hospice nurse Penny Terrell has walked alongside countless people in their final moments-holding hands, offering comfort, and witnessing scenes she could never explain. Moments when the dying reach out to loved ones long gone. When they smile at an unseen presence. When they speak to mothers, fathers, children, and even pets who have been absent for decades.In Not Going Alone, Penny shares these stories-not as proof or persuasion, but as a collection of experiences too beautiful to forget. From a boy who saw his sister with her favorite teddy bear, to an elderly woman greeting her mother on a birthday eighty years too late, these accounts cross boundaries of belief, culture, and age.Told with compassion and humility, these stories offer comfort to the grieving, hope to the fearful, and wonder to the curious. They remind us that death may not always be an ending-it is a moment of connection that reaches beyond the veil.If you have ever sat by a loved one's bedside and felt something you could not explain, Not Going Alone will speak to you.
