Sinopse

"Woodwork Essentials" presents a masterful blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern science, focusing on the critical yet often overlooked fundamentals of successful woodworking: timber selection and preparation. This comprehensive guide distinguishes itself by bridging the gap between age-old woodworking wisdom and contemporary scientific understanding, making it invaluable for both novice craftspeople and seasoned builders.

 
The book methodically progresses through three main sections: selection, preparation, and application. In the selection phase, readers learn about wood grading systems, growth rings, and grain patterns, supported by detailed photography and scientific research. The preparation section delves into both traditional and modern timber seasoning methods, offering practical guidelines for moisture content management across various climates.

 
This technical knowledge is presented through accessible language and real-world examples, making complex concepts easy to grasp. What sets this resource apart is its systematic approach to combining traditional knowledge with current scientific research, particularly in areas like moisture content calculations and species-specific properties. Rather than prescribing rigid methods, the book empowers readers with fundamental principles that can be adapted to their specific circumstances.

 
Through case studies from historical preservation projects and modern construction, readers gain practical insights into how proper timber selection and preparation directly influence project longevity and structural stability.

Ultramarine 2023 - Stories from...

Drew Rooke, Ellen Phiddian,...

Welcome to Ultramarine, which takes a deep dive into the science seeking to understand and protect our precious aquatic world. As anyone who’s rolled out of a boat in diving or snorkelling gear into deep water knows, there’s nothing as thrilling as entering the ocean and peering inside it. 
Whether in warm tropical waters or the shiver- inducing briny of temperate and lower marine environments, Earth’s oceans and seas brim with life, wonder and mystery. As 2023 ticks to a close, we wanted to showcase some of the stories that have appeared this year under the Ultramarine banner, and an e-yearbook seemed the perfect vehicle. We have published some 120 stories with a marine focus over the past 9 months; a small selection of those appears in this yearbook.

Creating Wellbeing and Building...

Sonja A. Olson

A Call to Life aims to help veterinary caregivers increase self-efficacy, decrease unnecessary suffering, and increase sustainability in their mission to support animal health around the world. The veterinary profession is powered by dedicated, bright, and selfless individuals. Unfortunately, the long-standing and dysfunctional culture in classrooms and practices around the world expects veterinary caregivers to be ready to sacrifice everything in the name of being deemed qualified and 'worthy.' 
 
 
 
Integrating real-life stories from a range of veterinary caregivers with evidence-based theory, practical activities, discussion and reflection points, and insights drawn from the author's own experiences, the book empowers veterinarians by showing that they have the ability and the control to choose a healthier way forward for themselves and their profession. It describes how to: normalize the conversation around mental and emotional health challenges in caregiving environments; discuss and collaboratively create systemic solutions that promote healthier 'ecosystems' for vets to work within; develop the skills of reframing, mindfulness, and self-care strategy implementation supporting holistic veterinary well-being; and collectively choose to shift the framework of professional conversations towards psychological safety, optimism, and purpose-driven experiences.
