Sinopse

Transportation Infrastructure explores the vital role of roads, bridges, and public transit in shaping urban environments. It argues that these networks are not merely physical structures but dynamic systems influencing urban development, economic opportunity, and social equity. The book highlights how strategic investments and innovative designs can foster economic growth and improve quality of life, addressing the architectural and technological elements involved in creating sustainable urban environments. One intriguing fact is how infrastructure projects impact land use patterns, influencing where people live and work. The book's approach is to integrate architectural insights and engineering principles with social and economic considerations. It progresses through three sections, beginning with fundamental principles, then delving into the specifics of roads, bridges, and public transit—considering everything from traffic management and structural engineering to system design and accessibility. Finally, it examines the broader implications on urban development and social equity, including access to employment, education, and healthcare. It uniquely combines these elements to understand infrastructure's role as a catalyst for positive social change.

The Study of Mental Health - The...

Steven Johnson

We wrote this book, Statistics for Psychology, specifically to serve as a resource for schooling and instruction. After spending several decades as a teacher of behavioural statistics, the author, who became widely known for his pedagogical prowess, intended to create a textbook that would apply the most effective classroom approaches to the written page. He did this by combining the textbook with the most effective classroom approaches. To achieve this, this book employs a variety of tactics, including timely pointing and highlighting devices, strategic reviews and reminders, a focus on the most pertinent content, and timely anticipating of the student's perspective. Additionally, Evans' technique emphasizes underlying logic and intuitive conceptions rather than sophisticated mathematical formulas and proofs, and it does so within the context of an engaging writing style. This contrasts other methods, which emphasize both of these aspects. One can say that there is a healthy balance between conceptual and computational aspects across the entirety of the object. This work is suitable for students taking their first course in behavioural statistics. After experiencing this subject, the reader will be better prepared for advanced courses and direct applications. We also provide internet links to complimentary additional supplements at www.ebookslimited.com to enhance your reading experience. Teachers of behavioural statistics and their students are the intended beneficiaries of these supplements.

More Numbers Every Day - How...

Micael Dahlen, Helge Thorbjørnsen

Your personal number detox: learn how numbers have taken control of your life—and how to get it back. How many hours of sleep did you get last week? How many steps did you walk today? How many friends do you have? It seems everywhere you go, you’re surrounded by numbers. You depend on them, so you think they’re dependable, neutral, exact. But the truth? Numbers lie. They mislead. They’re tricky, little manipulative devils. And they’re in the process of really messing things up for you. You just don’t know it yet.   Today we all strive to quantify everything: calories, likes, website traffic, and even friends. We measure ourselves against others and compare our real experiences to imagined averages. But in our rush to measure, we can lose sight of what matters. From internationally renowned economics professors Micael Dahlen and Helge Thorbjørnsen, More Numbers Every Day is a timely and powerful investigation—and warning—about the trouble numbers can bring us. With groundbreaking, empowering, sometimes frightening, and sometimes funny research, they describe how numbers creep into our heads and bodies, affecting how we think and feel. But numbers aren’t all bad. Sometimes they make us weaker, but sometimes they also make us stronger. More Numbers Every Day is more than just an exploration in to the somewhat mysterious, seemingly infinite pandemic of numbers. It’s a numerical vaccination—for a happier and more integrally healthy life.

A Fascinating Journey Through...

Martin K. Ettington

Time is a fascinating subject and one which affects our lives in many ways.  
This book covers a lot of aspects of the subject. 
First, how did measurements of time like seconds, minutes, hours, and years develop? 
Next, what is the history of timekeeping mechanisms from ancient water clocks, to mechanical mechanisms, atomic clocks, and much more. 
Lastly, what are some of the stranger aspects or anomalies of time such as premonitions, how time and space work, and possible time travel stories. 
And philosophical questions like: Does the future already exist? 
I wanted this book to be a comprehensive volume on time and so included lots of different stories and understandings about time which indicate we may not fully understand it yet.
