Sinopse

Sun Stands Still tackles the fascinating question of whether science can explain the biblical account of Joshua's long day. It bridges Physics and Biblical Studies, exploring if atmospheric refraction could account for the perceived extended daylight.

 
The book uniquely aims to reconcile faith and science by investigating the scientific plausibility of this event, rather than dismissing it outright. One intriguing aspect explored is how light bends through atmospheric layers, potentially distorting our perception of time.

 
The book begins by establishing the historical and biblical context of the event in Joshua. It then transitions into a detailed examination of atmospheric refraction, explaining how it works and how it might have affected the perception of time during Joshua's battle. Theoretical models and meteorological principles are applied to the biblical narrative.

 
This approach allows for a balanced perspective, appealing to those interested in Science and Religion, and those engaged in Biblical Prophecy.

 
The analysis culminates in a discussion of the implications of either validating or refuting a scientific basis for the event. This exploration touches upon the ongoing debates surrounding miracles and offers a nuanced approach to navigating the intersection of scientific and religious explanations.

 
The book encourages informed skepticism and a deeper understanding of both scientific principles and religious beliefs.

Oncology - Cancer Biology and...

Ava Westwood

Oncology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of cancer. It encompasses a wide range of practices, including understanding the biology of cancer, identifying risk factors, exploring therapeutic approaches, and addressing the challenges faced by patients with cancer. The discipline is vital to improving the lives of millions of people worldwide, with ongoing research aimed at advancing our knowledge and capabilities in combating the disease. 
Cancer, a term used to describe a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell growth, has been a significant health concern for centuries. It occurs when normal cells acquire genetic mutations that enable them to grow and divide uncontrollably, forming tumors or affecting other parts of the body. Despite significant advances in medical science, cancer remains a leading cause of death, highlighting the need for continued innovation in oncology. 
The importance of oncology lies not only in the treatment of cancer but also in early detection and prevention. Through advancements in diagnostic techniques, clinicians can identify cancers at an earlier stage when treatment options are more effective, leading to better outcomes. The evolving field of oncology also involves interdisciplinary care, combining surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapies to provide personalized treatment regimens that are tailored to the individual needs of patients.

Lean Production Scale-up

Ilkka Taponen

This audiobook is an altered version of the Master’s thesis Lean Production Scale-up. How a startup can scale the manufacturing of physical product innovation by Ilkka Taponen. Approximately half of the original thesis has been removed to suit the audiobook format. The audiobook edit has been designed for an audience familiar with startups and business, meaning that large portions of the basics have been removed from the Theory chapter.Today the market entry for new ideas and entrepreneurs is easier than ever as the digital age is reshaping how business is done. Through digitalization, the business environment has become highly open and widely connected. The combinations of digital technologies like edge computing and artificial intelligence, AI, enable new business model opportunities. In this fast-changing environment, the most important thing is to learn as fast as possible what to do next and what is worth doing at all. Multiple non-fiction books like The Four Steps to the Epiphany by Steve Blank and Lean Startup by Eric Ries study the modern internet-era startup business environment.Still, one aspect has not been included in the broader public discussion. The tools presented in Lean Startup concentrate on finding the market fit as efficiently as possible but assume that the same level of uncertainties does not exist in the company's internal processes. “We wanted flying cars, instead we got 140 characters” is a famous quote by startup investor Peter Thiel. Behind the quote is the notion that there is something different and more challenging about developing physical technologies compared to online services. Manufacturing, indeed, is an underrated problem. It is much harder to take advanced technology and bring it to volume manufacturing than to design it in the first place.

The Perilous Deep - A...

Karl Bell

The story of the stories we tell about the abyss, uncanny folklore linking seafarers across time and the globe. The vast expanse, unknown depths, dangers, and mysteries of the sea have led mariners to create fantastical stories of ghosts and monsters for centuries; it is a world strange and other to the experience of land dwellers. This body of lore has served to bond nautical communities together around the world and throughout history, with international stories fusing with local tales. The Perilous Deep explores why these stories were told, how they were repeated and mutated, and what fears, anxieties, and desires they helped to express. This is a fascinating exploration of the supernatural history of the Atlantic Ocean and some of its neighboring seas, showing how seafaring peoples have developed knowledge and a sense of control over nature through myths and legends.

Margin over Mission - When...

James Kelly

In a country where health care is increasingly driven by profit, Margin over Mission exposes the dire consequences of corporate ownership in hospitals. James Kelly, an ICU nurse with over two decades of experience, narrates a gripping account of his final year at Lovelace Women's Hospital in Albuquerque, New Mexico—a year marred by preventable deaths, administrative changes, and the heartbreaking loss of a once-mission-driven institution to the clutches of Wall Street. 
 
 
 
Kelly's poignant narrative takes listeners on an emotional journey through the corridors of a hospital that once stood for community and care but became overshadowed by the relentless pursuit of profit. Through detailed anecdotes and critical analysis, Kelly reveals the stark reality of a health care system compromised by private equity, where decisions prioritize profit margins over the mission of saving lives. 
 
 
 
Kelly's unique perspective as an ICU nurse provides an insider's look into how private equity is wreaking havoc in hospitals around the country. His story is also a powerful tribute to the countless health care workers who struggle to maintain their integrity and compassion in an increasingly inhumane system that prioritizes money over people.
