Sinopse

"Artificial Gravity" explores the compelling need for simulated gravity in space travel and habitation, addressing the detrimental effects of weightlessness on astronaut health, such as bone density loss and muscle atrophy. The book examines various methods for creating artificial gravity, focusing on rotating structures and linear acceleration. It explains how centripetal force in rotating habitats can mimic gravity and analyzes the challenges of sustained acceleration for interplanetary travel, making complex physics accessible to a broad audience.

 
The book progresses systematically, beginning with a review of gravity research and the biological impacts of microgravity. Later chapters delve into the physics of rotation, linear acceleration, and physiological considerations, evaluating the body's response to these artificial environments. It uniquely connects physics, engineering, medicine, and space exploration to provide a comprehensive understanding of artificial gravity's potential, including space tourism and settlements on other planets.

    Urban living has long been viewed as the pinnacle of opportunity and progress. Cities are often painted as vibrant hubs of culture, innovation, and success—a place where dreams come true and ambition finds its footing. The allure of bright lights, bustling streets, and endless possibilities pulls millions into these sprawling metropolises every year. For many, the promise of better jobs, richer experiences, and greater connections is enough to leave behind quieter, simpler lives elsewhere.   
      
    Yet, beneath the glittering facade lies a reality few are prepared for. Urban living often comes with hidden costs, both financial and emotional, that can turn this dream into a relentless grind. The very elements that make cities attractive—crowds, energy, and activity—can also become sources of stress, isolation, and disconnection. The fast pace of city life may thrill at first, but it often demands sacrifices that go unnoticed until they take their toll.  
      
    Financial strain is one of the first realities to hit those who flock to urban centers. The cost of housing, food, transportation, and entertainment skyrockets in the city, leaving little room for savings or long-term planning. Even those earning higher-than-average wages may find themselves living paycheck to paycheck, barely keeping up with the rising costs of urban living. This creates a paradox: while cities offer opportunities for upward mobility, they often make it harder to get ahead.

    'My mother was an oak treemy dad a garage mechanicMy father was a field of wheatmy mother the Prime MinisterMy mother was an innkeeperand my father a lonely cactus…'
    Suzannah Evans' new pamphlet introduces us to Green, half human, half angry nature spirit. Green serves as a stunt double for our own rage and complicity in nature's destruction. He shows us nature's delights so we may mourn their loss more deeply.
    'In this delicious mini-biography of the mythic figure, Suzannah Evans has conjured up a Green Man – now modishly monikered 'Green' – who is witness, listener, accountant, cheerleader, of all and every aspect of nature. An inveterate listicle maker, he can't help but nag us until our attention is drawn back inexorably to the wonder of the world; it's nightmares too. Whether he is supervising extinctions, lavender farming, or picking up plastic litter on the beach, Green is unabashedly a fun, wry and playful personality to spend some time with.' Rishi Dastidar
    'Green is a contemporary secular canticle, where matter and living beings are in mischievous, polyphonic dialogue. Channelled through this beyond-human figure, it presents a decentred ecology where "Green isn't rooting for anyone" – but where we must find a way to befriend 'him', without turning him into a 'man'. Earth is lively and re-enchanted, in Green's contemporary and accessible animism. We are invited to accept the majesty of llama memes alongside the 'death drop' of species extinction. Fuck you, Green says to the wasps, stinging him all over, I still love you. A gentle, passionate, good-natured plea, for even the stickiest, ickiest, grossest creatures to be named in Green's – and humanity's – affections.' Caleb Parkin
