Sinopsis

Orbital Station Breach explores the high-stakes world of space station emergency protocols, focusing on what happens during a decompression event. The increasing number of long-duration space missions makes understanding these critical responses vital; the book highlights the physics of decompression, its impact on astronaut physiology, and the operational procedures in place to mitigate disaster. You'll discover how a hull breach can drastically change air pressure and temperature, and the immediate effects on astronauts, such as hypoxia and barotrauma. The book examines near-miss events and accidents, dissecting the responses of crew and ground control while comparing the protocols used by space agencies like NASA, ESA, and Roscosmos. It emphasizes the need for continuous evaluation and adaptation of emergency protocols, considering the unique challenges of different station designs and mission profiles. Through a blend of incident reports, technical documents, training manuals, and simulations, Orbital Station Breach offers a comprehensive look at improving training, equipment design, and decision-making under extreme pressure.

    This isn't a book filled with dry timelines or technical blueprints of the digital revolution. Instead, it's a firsthand journey—my journey—through one of the most astonishing transformations in human history: the rise of personal computing and the dawn of the digital age. 
    I was born in November 1955, at a time when the word “computer” was barely whispered outside of military labs and universities. My earliest memories include a bulky black-and-white television with rabbit-ear antennas, broadcasting a single channel. That flickering screen was my first encounter with electronic media—a far cry from the high-definition, touch-responsive world we live in now. 
    Over the decades, my path as an engineer and software developer placed me squarely in the midst of this technological upheaval. I didn’t just watch the future arrive—I helped build it, one line of code and one innovation at a time. 
    This book is a personal time capsule—a chronicle of what it was really like to live through the shift from analog to digital, from typewriters to tablets, from rotary phones to the infinite power in our pockets today. If you're a younger reader curious about how we got here, or someone who remembers the glow of vacuum tubes and the clack of punch cards, I invite you to walk with me through the decades. 
    You may be surprised by how far we’ve come—and how much we’ve forgotten along the way. 
    Many of the chapters are identified with the years or periods of time where these changes occurred.

    Perfect - Feeling Judged on...

    Social media is replete with images of 'perfection'. But many are unrealistic and contribute to a pervasive sense of never being good enough: not thin enough; not pretty enough; not cool enough. Try too hard and you risk being condemned for being ‘attention-seeking’, don't try hard enough and you're slacking. 
     
    Rosalind Gill challenges polarized perspectives that see young women as either passive victims of social media or as savvy digital natives. She argues the real picture is far more ambivalent. Getting likes and followers and feeling connected to friends feels fantastic, but posting material and worrying about 'haters' causes significant anxieties. 
     
    Gill uses young women's own words to show how they feel watched all the time; worry about getting things wrong; and struggle to live up to an ideal of being 'perfect' yet at the same time ‘real’. It's the wake-up call we all need.

    Third Ear braids together personal narrative with scholarly inquiry to examine the power of listening to build interpersonal empathy and social transformation. A daughter of Holocaust survivors, Rosner shares stories from growing up in a home where six languages were spoken to interrogate how psychotherapy, neurolinguistics, and creativity can illuminate the complex ways we are impacted by the sounds and silences of others. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on expertise from journalists, podcasters, performers, translators, acoustic biologists, spiritual leaders, composers, and educators, this hybrid text moves fluidly along a spectrum from molecular to global to reveal how third-ear listening can be a collective means for increased understanding and connection to the natural world.
