Sinossi

Lighthouse Construction explores the fascinating engineering behind maritime lighthouses, those towering structures built to withstand the relentless power of the sea. It details the technological innovations and immense logistical challenges involved in creating these vital navigational aids. 

 
The book examines the evolution of lighthouse design, highlighting how these structures transitioned from simple bonfires to sophisticated towers with advanced optical systems. The book emphasizes the interplay between engineering innovation, environmental adaptation, and societal need. For example, constructing lighthouses on treacherous sandbanks required innovative foundation techniques, while building on rocky coasts demanded precise quarrying and fitting of granite. 

 
Through case studies of iconic lighthouses, the book illustrates the practical application of engineering principles and the heroic efforts of construction crews. Beginning with fundamental design principles, the book progresses through the evolution of light sources and the challenges of diverse environments. It culminates by examining the automation of lighthouses and their ultimate decline with modern navigation systems, reflecting on their lasting legacy as symbols of human ingenuity and maritime safety.

    The question is no longer if electric vehicles will happen, or even when they'll happen, but how. Veteran automotive reporter Mike Colias takes you inside the transformation in this thoroughly reported profile of the hard pivot in the car business, a $2 trillion industry undergoing the biggest change in its 120-year history—a change that is already sending ripples across the entire global economy. 
     
     
     
    Colias documents the inevitable shift from pistons to electrons from every angle, taking you inside the boardrooms where executives battle over their EV strategies to take on Tesla and, more recently, emerging Chinese powerhouses such as BYD. He brings you to family-run car dealerships deciding if they'll sell EVs—or sell their businesses. He follows entrepreneurs along lonely stretches of road that will soon need charging stations. He talks to power-train engineers whose skills were once the beating heart of the automotive industry but who now find themselves being replaced by coders. 
     
     
     
    Inevitable is a deeply enjoyable and smart book that uses masterful storytelling to capture the expanse and dynamism of the transition to electric vehicles in profound detail, bringing to life its seismic effects on everything and everyone.
