Synopsis

"Fire-Safe Wood" explores the science and technology behind enhancing wood's fire resistance, transforming it into a viable and safe building material. It challenges the perception of wood as inherently risky by delving into innovative fire-retardant treatments.

 
Did you know that understanding the chemical processes of wood combustion is crucial for developing effective prevention strategies? Or that advancements allow wood to potentially meet, and even exceed, the fire-safety standards of other materials?

 
The book progresses logically, starting with the principles of fire science and wood combustion, then moves to categorizing various fire-retardant treatments by their effectiveness, durability, and environmental impact. Finally, it examines practical construction considerations, including design guidelines and real-world case studies.

 
This approach offers a comprehensive understanding of how treated wood can be safely integrated into modern construction.

  • From Outer Space to Inner Space - An Apollo Astronaut's Journey Through the Material and Mystical Worlds - cover

    From Outer Space to Inner Space...

    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.

    Harrowing journeys of animals and plants—fleeing skyrocketing temperatures—reported from the frontlines of the greatest migration of species since the Ice Age. 
     
     
     
    As humans accelerate global warming while laying waste to the environment, animals and plants must flee to the margins: on scattered nature reserves, between major highways, or among urban sprawl. And when even these places become too hot and inhospitable, wildlife is left with only one path to survival: an often-formidable journey toward the poles as they race to find a new home in a warming world. Tropical zones lose their inhabitants, beavers settle in Alaska, and gigantic shoals of fish disappear—just to reappear along foreign coastlines. 
     
     
     
    Award-winning environmental journalist Benjamin von Brackel traces these awe-inspiring journeys and celebrates the remarkable resilience of species around the world. But the lengths these plants and animals must go to avoid extinction are as alarming as they are inspirational: Sea animals—like fish—move on average forty-five miles a decade to cooler regions, while land animals—like beavers and butterflies—move eleven miles. As even the poles of the Earth heat up, we're left with a stark and irreversible choice: Halt the climate emergency now, or face a massive die-off of species, who are increasingly left with nowhere else to go.
