Summary

"Tech Recycling" addresses the growing global challenge of electronic waste, or e-waste, and explores the potential of recycling technologies to mitigate its harmful effects. The book highlights the alarming rate of electronics consumption and its direct impact on global waste streams, detailing how improper handling of e-waste can lead to environmental contamination due to hazardous materials like lead and mercury. It emphasizes the necessity of transitioning from a linear "take-make-dispose" model to a circular economy where e-waste becomes a valuable resource stream through effective waste management. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the e-waste recycling process, examining various recycling technologies such as dismantling, shredding, and smelting. It also addresses the economic and policy aspects of e-waste recycling, looking at the roles of government regulations, industry initiatives, and consumer behavior in promoting responsible recycling practices. Using case studies and data from material flow analysis, the book demonstrates the feasibility and necessity of a circular economy model for electronics, presenting a fact-based analysis of the entire e-waste recycling chain. The book unfolds in three sections, first introducing the fundamentals of e-waste, then exploring recycling technologies, and finally analyzing the economic and policy aspects. It presents information in a clear and objective manner, maintaining an optimistic tone about the potential for innovation and progress. The book is valuable for environmental scientists, policymakers, industry professionals, and environmentally conscious consumers seeking a deeper understanding of e-waste solutions.

    A "quirky, endlessly entertaining" look at the surprising history of the pigeon (Simon Winchester). 
 
 
  
Domesticated since the dawn of man, pigeons have been used as crucial communicators in war by every major historical superpower from ancient Egypt to the United States and are credited with saving thousands of lives. They have been worshipped as fertility goddesses and revered as symbols of peace. Charles Darwin relied heavily on pigeons to help formulate and support his theory of evolution. Yet today they are reviled as "rats with wings." 
 
 
  
To research this lively history of the humble pigeon, the author traveled across the United States and Europe to meet with pigeon fanciers and pigeon haters in a quest to find out how we came to misunderstand one of mankind’s most helpful and steadfast companions. Pigeons captures a Brooklyn man's quest to win the Main Event (the pigeon world's equivalent of the Kentucky Derby), as well as a convention dedicated to breeding the perfect bird. The author participates in a live pigeon shoot where entrants pay $150; he tracks down Mike Tyson, the nation's most famous pigeon lover; he spends time with Queen Elizabeth's Royal Pigeon Handler; and he sheds light on a radical "pro-pigeon underground" in New York City. In Pigeons, Andrew D. Blechman reveals for the first time the remarkable story behind this seemingly unremarkable bird.

    In From Terrain to Brain, Professor Erika Szymanski makes wine science accessible to non-experts. Rather than approach wine science as body of facts about wine, Szymanski explores how wine science can open up multiple ways of seeing, understanding, and appreciating wine. 
 
 
 
Too often, wine science is presented as a comprehensive body of knowledge that enthusiasts aiming to become experts should memorize. This book instead uses scientific research to explore wine as an endlessly rich cultural phenomenon. By foregrounding recent research and developments in wine science, From Terrain to Brain presents wine science as a work-in-progress rather than a codified body of knowledge. 
 
 
 
Each chapter takes listeners on a journey or "foray" through a topic in wine science, such as minerality, climate, microbiome, and yeast. Chapters are organized from "terrain" (geography, terroir, soil) and cell "membrane" (microbiology) through "brain" (the experience of tasting) and "drain" (sustainability). Throughout, From Terrain to Brain emphasizes that wine science, wine culture, and tradition are interconnected and places scientific research in social and historical context.
