Beschreibung

Earth's magnetic field, the magnetosphere, is a vital shield protecting our planet from harmful solar winds and cosmic radiation. Magnetosphere explores this dynamic system, revealing how it deflects charged particles from the sun, preventing atmospheric stripping and safeguarding life. This book underscores the importance of understanding the magnetosphere, especially given our increasing reliance on satellite technology vulnerable to space weather events. For example, magnetic storms can disrupt communication systems and power grids, highlighting the need for accurate space weather forecasting.

 
The book approaches the topic by first tracing the history of our understanding of Earth's magnetic field and introducing plasma physics. It then examines the magnetosphere's structure and its interaction with the solar wind, explaining phenomena like magnetic storms and substorms. By synthesizing data from ground-based observatories, satellite missions, and computer simulations, the book emphasizes the dynamic nature of the magnetosphere. Subsequent chapters analyze currents and particle populations, leading to auroral displays and radiation belt formation.

 
The book culminates by discussing space weather's impact on Earth and strategies for monitoring and predicting these events, while also drawing comparisons to other planetary magnetospheres. Magnetosphere offers a comprehensive overview for students, researchers, and anyone interested in Earth sciences and space exploration. The book's unique value lies in its integration of observational data and theoretical models, providing a cohesive picture of this complex system and its implications for our technological infrastructure and future in space.

    'Holgate guides us expertly and with a deft touch along the journey towards the holy grail of unlimited energy for all.' - JIM AL-KHALILI
    'What is nuclear fusion? In clear and accessible language, this book explains the basics and the hope for the future. A valuable addition to the Hot Science series.' - JOHN GRIBBIN
    Could the Sun hold the key to a future of clean energy?
    
    Since the 1950s, scientists have attempted to harness nuclear fusion - the process that creates the Sun's energy - to generate near-limitless amounts of electricity.
    
    But the fact that we still have no fusion power plants is testament to the complexities of the challenge. Now, the deepening climate crisis means that researchers around the world are in a race to create a mini-Sun here on Earth. The glittering prize is an energy source that emits no greenhouse gases and could solve energy equity and supply issues at a stroke.
    
    Sharon Ann Holgate, a former Young Professional Physicist of the Year, tells the compelling story of the ongoing scientific quest for a revolutionary new era of green energy production.

    The ADHD Consultation Hour ADHD...

    The first edition of the 'small ADHD consultation', published in 2014, was originally created to provide my patients with a quick overview of the broad field of ADHD symptoms in adults as summarised as possible. It was important to me to integrate accompanying disorders and therapeutic options such as medication and coaching strategies. It is not uncommon for the underlying ADHD symptoms to be masked by disorders that develop later (such as obsessive thinking, anxiety, panic attacks and addictions). Only abnormalities in childhood, such as dreaminess or motor restlessness with impulsiveness, allow conclusions to be drawn. Patients and friends were kind enough to embellish this book with their contributions, sketches, pictures and poems. The significantly expanded 3rd edition of the 'Little ADHD Consultation' is due to the increased needs and demands of my patients and the new findings concerning ADHD. New topics such as neurofeedback, medication overview, neurobiological aspects and autistic accompanying phenomena as well as legal aspects and cannabis medication have been included. I wish you many A-HA experiences with this expansion.

    This book explores the concepts of our planet Earth being a conscious entity, and all of the incredible places life has been found, around, on, and inside our planet. 
    I believe that planet Earth (also known as Gaia) is a conscious being in its own right. Many of the ancients also believed the same thing. 
    Even metaphysical philosophies like Theosophy talk about the Gaia consciousness and that there are even higher level beings like the Solar Logos. 
    There is an amazing amount of life on Earth—much of which has only been discovered in recent decades. 
    For example: did you know that life penetrates the Earth’s crust down to at least seven miles beneath the Ocean’s seabed, and possibly much deeper. 
    That life exists in Lake Vostok beneath the Antarctic Ice which hasn’t been in contact with the surface for many thousands of years? 
    There has also been new bacteria found on the International Space Station and in meteorites which have hit the Earth. 
    Life exists on our planet in many unusual and amazing places and you will be amazed at its diversity.

    Beneath our feet lies one of the most complex and essential ecosystems on Earth — a living world that sustains every breath we take and every meal we eat. Yet for decades, we’ve treated soil as mere dirt: something to be dug, paved, poisoned, and forgotten. 
    In Hope in the Humus, Alex Southwick uncovers the hidden life of the ground below us and the extraordinary potential it holds to heal the planet. Travelling from regenerative farms to city gardens and ancient forests, Southwick meets the scientists, growers, and visionaries restoring vitality to the soil — and, in doing so, rebuilding the foundations of climate stability and human wellbeing. 
    Both intimate and expansive, this is a story of renewal — of how, by tending to the smallest organisms in the dark, we might rediscover a deeper relationship with the world above. 
    Gentle, wise, and ultimately uplifting, Hope in the Humus reminds us that recovery begins where life itself began: in the soil.

    Winner of the 2020 National Outdoor Book Award for Outdoor Classic! 
     
     
     
    In this coming-of-middle-age memoir, Kim Heacox, writing in the tradition of Abbey, McPhee, and Thoreau, discovers an Alaska reborn from beneath a massive glacier, where flowers emerge from boulders, moose swim fjords, and bears cross crevasses with Homeric resolve. In such a place Heacox finds that people are reborn too, and their lives begin anew with incredible journeys, epiphanies, and successes. All in an America free of crass commercialism and overdevelopment. 
     
     
     
    Braided through the larger story are tales of gold prospectors and the cabin they built sixty years ago; John Muir and his intrepid terrier, Stickeen; and a dynamic geology professor who teaches earth science "as if every day were a geological epoch." 
     
     
     
    Nearly two million people come to Alaska every summer, some on large cruise ships, some in single kayaks—all in search of the last great wilderness, the Africa of America. It is exactly the America Heacox finds in this story of paradox, love, and loss.
