Sinossi

Vertical Farming Future explores how technology can transform food production through indoor and controlled environment agriculture (CEA). It examines the principles and advancements of vertical farming, a key component of sustainable agriculture, and its potential to revolutionize how we grow food. One intriguing aspect is the optimization of plant growth via precise environmental control, which impacts crop yields and quality. The book also highlights the diverse technologies, such as LED lighting and hydroponics, that are making vertical farms efficient and sustainable.

 
The book traces CEA's evolution from early greenhouses to modern vertical farms, addressing the urgent need for sustainable food systems. It presents a balanced view, arguing that vertical farming is not a singular solution but a vital tool alongside traditional methods to enhance food security. Beginning with plant physiology, the book progresses through vertical farming technologies, economic viability, environmental impacts, and future trends. It analyzes hydroponic, aeroponic, and aquaponic systems; energy consumption; labor costs; and the reduction of water usage and pesticide application.

 
Vertical Farming Future adopts a holistic approach, considering the technological, economic, social, and environmental dimensions of vertical farming. It’s designed for anyone interested in the future of food, including students, researchers, and policymakers, offering practical knowledge about the design, operation, and sustainability of vertical farms. The book addresses ongoing debates, presenting different perspectives to encourage informed opinions on agricultural technology and the future of food.

    Our society has a technology problem. Many want to disconnect from screens but can't help themselves. These days we spend more time online than ever. Some turn to self-help measures to limit their usage, yet repeatedly fail, while parents feel particularly powerless to help their children. Unwired: Gaining Control over Addictive Technologies shows us a way out. Rather than blaming users, the book shatters the illusion that we autonomously choose how to spend our time online. It shifts the moral responsibility and accountability for solutions to corporations. Drawing lessons from the tobacco and food industries, the book demonstrates why government regulation is necessary to curb technology addiction. It describes a grassroots movement already in action across courts and legislative halls. Groundbreaking and urgent, Unwired provides a blueprint to develop this movement for change, to one that will allow us to finally gain control.

    The most common way we come to know animals is usually by rote learning the specific features that certain kind of animals have according to a textbooks. We learn that they are mammals, birds or fish; but at school we rarely mention that they have a personality of their own and even less do we analyze whether we treat them well or badly. Have you ever wondered how animals actually feel?
    Have you thought about how they are treated in our society?
    The Voice of Animals promotes reflection through critical thinking on different issues related to animal ethics. By raising questions it paves the way to analyze the most common themes that emerge in adolescence regarding the lives of animals, both free and captive.

    A Life Lived Chronically: Memoir of a DES Daughter is a compelling and emotionally resonant memoir written by Claire R. Silverstone-Bright, brought to life through the narration of Kimberly Rog and published by Panda Publishing Agency UK. 
    Long before her birth, Claire’s life was already influenced by diethylstilbestrol (DES), a drug once widely prescribed to pregnant women and promoted as a safeguard against miscarriage. What was once considered a medical advancement was later linked to serious and lasting health effects for daughters exposed to it in the womb. 
    In this powerful audiobook, Claire shares her personal journey as a DES daughter—growing up with chronic illness, facing repeated medical procedures, and living under constant medical observation. Her story goes beyond physical struggles, delving into themes of identity, strength, and perseverance. 
    Far more than a traditional medical memoir, A Life Lived Chronically examines the wider emotional and social implications of inheriting a medical condition shaped by past decisions. With insight drawn from her background in criminology and justice, Claire critically explores the systems of authority, healthcare, and silence that allowed DES to impact generations of women without their knowledge or consent. 
    Blending intimate storytelling with thoughtful analysis, this audiobook offers a meaningful reflection on trust in medicine, the consequences of unchecked scientific progress, and the importance of giving voice to overlooked experiences. 
    Honest, insightful, and deeply moving, A Life Lived Chronically: Memoir of a DES Daughter stands as both a story of resilience and a call to recognize the hidden legacy carried by DES daughters across the world.
