Beschreibung

Lightning Strikes offers an in-depth exploration of lightning, a powerful and captivating atmospheric phenomenon. The book demystifies this electrical discharge by examining the science behind its formation, intensity, and the methods scientists use to study it. Readers will gain insights into how charge separation occurs within clouds, leading to different types of lightning strikes, and understand the crucial roles of stepped leaders and return strokes in the process. Interestingly, the frequency and intensity of lightning can also serve as indicators of climate change, highlighting its broader significance in Earth sciences. 

 
The book takes an interdisciplinary approach, integrating physics, atmospheric science, and Earth sciences to provide a holistic understanding. It progresses from fundamental concepts of atmospheric electricity to detailed analyses of lightning types and electrical properties. This comprehensive exploration connects lightning to severe weather phenomena, climatology, and even electrical engineering, showcasing the real-world applications of lightning research. 

 
By balancing detailed explanations of the underlying physics with real-world case studies, Lightning Strikes provides a unique and accessible perspective for anyone interested in weather, physics, or Earth sciences.

    Have you ever been told that your pain is imaginary? That feeling better just takes yoga, CBD oil, and the blood of a unicorn on a full moon? That's the reality of the more than 190 million people suffering the excruciating condition known as endometriosis. This disease affecting one in ten cis women and uncounted numbers of others is chronically overlooked, underfunded, and misunderstood—and improperly treated across the medical system. Discrimination and medical gaslighting are rife in endo care, often leaving patients worse off. 
     
     
     
    Journalist Tracey Lindeman knows it all too well. Decades of suffering from endometriosis propelled the creation of BLEED—part memoir, part investigative journalism, and all scathing indictment of how the medical system fails patients. Through extensive interviews and research, BLEED tracks the modern endo experience to the origins of medicine and how the system gained its power by marginalizing women. Using an intersectional lens, BLEED dives into how the system perpetuates misogyny, racism, classism, ageism, transphobia, fatphobia, and other prejudices to this day. 
     
     
     
    BLEED isn't a self-help book. It's an evidence file and an eye-opening, enraging book. It will validate those who have been gaslit, mistreated, or ignored by medicine and spur listeners to fight for nothing short of revolution.

    Health care reform efforts are difficult to achieve and have been historically undermined by their narrow scope. In The Present Illness, Martin F. Shapiro, MD, PhD, MPH, weaves together history, sociology, extensive research, and his own experiences as a physician to explore the broad range of afflictions impairing US health care and explains why we won't be able to fix the system without making significant changes across society. With a sharp eye and ready humor, Shapiro dissects the ways all groups participating—clinicians and their organizations, medical schools and their faculty, hospitals and clinical corporations, scientists and the National Institutes of Health, insurers and manufacturers, governments and their policies, and also patients and the public—shape and reinforce a dysfunctional system. Shapiro identifies three major problems stymieing reform: commodification of care; values, expectations, unmet needs, attitudes, and personal limitations of participants; and toxic relationships and communication among these groups.Shapiro lays out a sweeping agenda of concrete actions to address the many factors contributing to the system's failings. Highlighting the interconnectedness of both the problems and potential solutions, he warns that piecemeal reform efforts will continue to be undermined by those who believe they have something to gain from the status quo. Although overhauling our health care system is daunting, Shapiro nonetheless concludes that we must push forward with a far more comprehensive effort in all sectors of health care and throughout society to create a system that is humane, effective, and just.
