Synopsis

"How Lasers Work" explores the physics behind lasers, illuminating their transformative applications across technology and medicine. It begins by establishing a foundation in light and electromagnetic radiation, progressing to explain light absorption, spontaneous emission, and stimulated emission – the key to laser function. The book emphasizes the laser's unique properties, such as monochromaticity and coherence, which enable its precision applications, like cutting through steel and repairing retinas.

 
The book details the historical development of the laser, from Einstein's theoretical concepts to Theodore Maiman's first working laser in 1960. Different types of lasers, including gas, solid-state, and semiconductor lasers, are examined in terms of construction, principles, and specific uses. A significant portion is dedicated to laser applications in medicine, communication, and industry, providing real-world examples of their impact.

 
The book uses experimental data and schematics, and connects laser physics to materials science, computer science, and environmental science. It provides a balanced treatment of theory and practice, making it valuable for both academic study and practical reference.

    Messy code is a nuisance. "Tidying" code, to make it more readable, requires breaking it up into manageable sections. In this practical guide, author Kent Beck, creator of Extreme Programming and pioneer of software patterns, suggests when and where you might apply tidyings to improve your code while keeping the overall structure of the system in mind. 
     
     
     
    Instead of trying to master tidying all at once, this book lets you try out a few examples that make sense for your problem. If you have a big function containing many lines of code, you'll learn how to logically divide it into smaller chunks. Along the way, you'll learn the theory behind software design: coupling, cohesion, discounted cash flows, and optionality. This book helps you: 
     
     
     
    ● Understand the basic theory of how software design works and the forces that act on it 
     
     
     
    ● Explore the difference between changes to a system's behavior and changes to its structure 
     
     
     
    ● Improve your programming experience by sometimes tidying first and sometimes tidying after 
     
     
     
    ● Learn how to make large changes in small, safe steps 
     
     
     
    ● Approach software design as an exercise in human relationships

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    The maneuvers of an Airbus A320 are extremely simple during normal operations. They may present minimal complexity during abnormal operations, but the aircraft is extremely easy to fly. 
    	On the other hand, there are special operations that require a higher level of attention, and these are not necessarily abnormal operations or emergencies, but rather uncommon operations, such as flights in wind shear, volcanic ash, among others. 
    	In this work, you will learn all the details of each of these special operations, which will take your understanding of A320 flight to the next level.

    Winter - The Story of a Season

    In this radiant work of creative nonfiction, internationally beloved novelist Val McDermid delivers a dazzling ode to a lost world, ruminating on a single winter in her life as she journeys into the heart of the season's ever-evolving community-based traditions 
    Val McDermid has always had a soft spot for winter: the bitter clarity of a crisp cold day, the crunch of frost on fallen leaves, and the chance to be enveloped in big jumpers and thick socks. 
    In Winter, McDermid takes us on an adventure through the season, from the frosty streets of Edinburgh to the windblown Scottish coast, from Bonfire Night and Christmas to Burns Night and Up Helly Aa. Recalling in parallel memories from her own childhood--of skating over frozen lakes and carving a "neep" (rutabaga) for Halloween to being taken to see her first real Christmas tree in the town square--McDermid offers a wise and enchanting meditation on winter and its ever-changing, sometimes ephemeral, traditions. 
    A hygge-filled journey through winter nights, McDermid reminds us that it is a time of rest, retreat and creativity, for scribbling in notebooks and settling in beside the fire. A treat for the hunkering-down, post-holiday reading season, Winter is a charming and cozy celebration of the year's idle months from one of Scotland's best-loved writers.
