Sinossi

Tide Trap Stranding explores the increasing dangers of coastal exploration due to climate change, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events. This book, bridging Earth Sciences, Geography, and Environment, highlights how traditional risk assessments are failing. It investigates the heightened risks of coastal erosion, where shorelines are receding at alarming rates, and the growing frequency of tidal surges, posing threats to both human safety and coastal infrastructure.

 
The book presents a historical context, tracing human interaction with coastlines, and offers a foundation in geomorphology, oceanography, and climatology. Through case studies of past coastal disasters, the book analyzes factors contributing to dangerous situations, such as underestimated erosion rates and the impact of infrastructure. It champions adaptive strategies, integrating real-time data and predictive modeling, to enhance coastal resilience.

 
The book progresses from fundamental concepts to case studies, predictive models, and concludes with practical recommendations for policymakers and explorers.

Spelunky

Derek Yu

When Derek Yu released Spelunky for free in 2008, his roguelike-inspired platformer took the indie game community by storm with its combination of classic platform mechanics, extreme difficulty, and random level generation. Four years later, Spelunky's HD remake went on to become PC Gamer's Game of the Year and earn perfect scores from Polygon and Eurogamer. But how is a "perfect" game made? 
 
  
 
Spelunky is Boss Fight's first autobiographical book: the story of a game's creation as told by its creator. Using his own game as a vehicle, Derek Yu discusses such wide-ranging topics as randomization, challenge, indifferent game worlds, player feedback, development team dynamics, and what's required to actually finish a game. Grab some ropes, a mattock, and your favorite pug—this book is going to dig deep.

Impact of New Technologies on...

Siddhartha Paul Tiwari

Biography of the Author - Siddhartha Paul Tiwari
Siddhartha Paul Tiwari is an educator and a technologist. Currently, he is employed by Google Asia Pacific, Singapore. Prior to that, he was responsible for global learning and development at Google, based in Tokyo. His achievements include innovative educational techniques, the development of new graduate and postgraduate course curricula, digital intervention strategies, and the use of information and communication technologies in education. As the teaching environment has rapidly changed, Tiwari has been working tirelessly to integrate new technologies into university curricula and to help academia adjust to these changes.
An Overview of the Book
We already see the impact of emerging technologies on our lives and the economy in many different ways, particularly when it comes to the way we live our lives and the way we work. Due to this, there is fierce competition among companies across the globe in order to ensure that they are able to benefit from the new technological developments. Globally, the United States and Asia are emerging as the two global leaders in this area. Over the years, there has been a significant change in the landscape of emerging technologies since Alan Turing first asked in the 1950s if machines could think like humans. Emerging technologies will enhance economic growth and efficiency in the future. It is possible to greatly improve decision-making when large amounts of data are analysed by improving efficiency. It is likely that new products and services, new markets, and new industries will be created as a result, which will in turn boost consumer demand and generate new revenue streams. On the other hand, emerging technologies may also have a profound effect on society and the economy.

The Apple II Age - How the...

Laine Nooney

Skip the iPhone, the iPod, and the Macintosh. If you want to understand how Apple Inc. became an industry behemoth, look no further than the 1977 Apple II. Designed by the engineer Steve Wozniak and hustled into the marketplace by his Apple cofounder Steve Jobs, the Apple II became one of the most prominent personal computers of this dawning industry. 
 
 
  
The Apple II was a versatile piece of hardware, but its most compelling story isn't found in the feat of its engineering, the personalities of Apple's founders, or the way it set the stage for the company's multibillion-dollar future. Instead, historian Laine Nooney shows, what made the Apple II iconic was its software. In software, we discover the material reasons people bought computers. The story of personal computing in the United States is not about the evolution of hackers—it's about the rise of everyday users. 
 
 
  
Recounting a constellation of software creation stories, Nooney offers a new understanding of how the hobbyists' microcomputers of the 1970s became the personal computer we know today. The Apple II Age offers an unprecedented look at the people, the industry, and the money that built the microcomputing milieu—and why so much of it converged around the pioneering Apple II.

From Outer Space to Inner Space...

Dr. Edgar Mitchell

The sixth man who walked on the moon shares his journey to the stars, into the mind, and beyond.
In February 1971, as Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell hurtled Earthward through space, he was engulfed by a profound sense of universal connectedness. He intuitively sensed that his presence and that of the planet in the window were all part of a deliberate, universal process, and that the glittering cosmos itself was, in some way, conscious. The experience was so overwhelming, Mitchell knew his life would never be the same.
For the next thirty-five years, he embarked on another journey, an inward exploration of the ineffable mystery of human consciousness and being. Mitchell left NASA to form the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS). There he initiated research in areas of study previously neglected by mainstream science and constructed a theory that could explain not only the mysteries of consciousness, but also the psychic event—what spiritualists call a “miracle” and scientists dismiss altogether.
Mitchell also created a new dyadic model of reality, revealing a self-aware universe not predetermined by the laws of physics, preordained by deities, or infinitely malleable. While human actions are generally subject to the laws of physics, these laws are also influenced by the mind.
From Outer Space to Inner Space traces two remarkable journeys—one through space and one through the mind. Together they fundamentally alter the way we understand the miracle and mystery of being, and ultimately reveal humankind’s role in its own destiny.
Previously published as The Way of the Explorer, this edition includes a new foreword by Avi Loeb, an afterword by Dean Radin, and a postscript chapter by the author.
