  Have you been wondering about the big issues dominating the news? Is climate change a massive threat or not? What is really going on with immigration? More importantly, how did American politics become so divided and hostile?  What if we approached American social, cultural and political problems from a purely rational perspective? What if we focus on functional systems instead of division? Careful analysis of readily available data can help us discover patterns and uncover the real issues. An engineering perspective allows us to focus on what needs to be fixed rather than ideological divisions.  
     Finally, one of America's top engineers has brought these topics and others together in a thought-provoking book. This book is rooted in history, facts, and logic, and it lays out solutions to America's problems. A book focused to get Americans talking to one another again, so we can rise to the occasion and solve today's problems together.  
      William Taggart has over thirty years as a professional engineer in industry. He has travelled the world, building some of industry’s biggest projects and solving some of their thorniest problems. Now, he has applied analytical skills developed in industry, coupled with his natural inquisitiveness and thirst for creative solutions, to the problems of modern-day American politics. Seeking answers to questions many of us have been asking, he has focused his keen mind on researching these, and other big issues. He invites everyone to think about what America really needs.

  Over the Seawall - Tsunamis...

  Stephen Robert Miller

  In March 2011, people in a coastal Japanese city stood atop a seawall watching the approach of the tsunami that would kill them. They believed—naively—that the huge concrete barrier would save them. Instead they perished, betrayed by the very thing built to protect them. Erratic weather, blistering drought, rising seas, and ecosystem collapse now affect every inch of the globe. Increasingly, we no longer look to stop climate change, choosing instead to adapt to it. 
   
   
   
  Never have so many undertaken such a widespread, hurried attempt to remake the world. Predictably, our hubris has led to unintended—and sometimes disastrous—consequences. Academics call it maladaptation; in simple terms, it's about solutions that backfire. Over the Seawall tells us the stories behind these unintended consequences and the fixes that can do more harm than good. From seawalls in coastal Japan, to the reengineered waters in the Ganges River Delta, to the artificial ribbon of water supporting both farms and urban centers in parched Arizona, Stephen Robert Miller traces the histories of engineering marvels that were once deemed too smart and too big to fail. In each he takes us into the land and culture, seeking out locals and experts to better understand how complicated, grandiose schemes led instead to failure, and to find answers to the technologic holes we've dug ourselves into.
