Summary

Fluid Dynamics Facts explores the crucial role of fluid dynamics, particularly water transport, in biological systems, bridging the gap between physics and life sciences. It highlights how understanding water movement at the cellular and tissue levels is fundamental to comprehending nutrient delivery, waste removal, and even cell signaling. The book argues that integrating fluid dynamics principles is essential for accurately modeling biological phenomena.

 
Did you know that the principles governing water flow in rivers also apply to water transport within our bodies? Similarly, osmosis and diffusion, familiar concepts in physics, are key mechanisms in cell biology.

 
The book begins with foundational principles and progresses to the biophysics of water transport across cell membranes, examining osmosis, diffusion, and specialized transport proteins. It then delves into fluid flow within tissues, focusing on the influence of tissue architecture and cellular interactions. This approach allows readers to gradually build their understanding of complex topics.

 
The book uniquely combines theoretical models with experimental data, offering a balanced view valuable to students and researchers in biology, physics, and bioengineering.

After the Flood: Humanity’s...

Alex Southwick

The water is rising — and it’s not just the coasts that are changing. Entire nations are sinking, rivers are shifting course, and millions are already on the move. But amid the devastation, extraordinary stories of resilience are emerging. 
After the Flood takes readers to the front lines of the planet’s most pressing crisis: the global struggle to live with water in an era of unstoppable change. From the engineers building floating cities in the Netherlands to the farmers in Bangladesh reinventing agriculture on flooded land, and the Pacific Islanders fighting to preserve their homelands from beneath the waves — this is a story of ingenuity, defiance, and hope. 
Blending investigative reporting with deeply human storytelling, Alex Southwick reveals how rising seas are not only redrawing maps, but reshaping what it means to belong, to adapt, and to survive. 
After the Flood is a haunting and inspiring portrait of a world transformed by water — and the people determined to rise with it.

Condensed Matter Physics -...

Mark Hedges

Condensed matter physics is a fundamental branch of physics that explores the physical properties of solid and liquid states of matter. It seeks to understand how the collective behavior of a large number of atoms and electrons gives rise to the diverse physical properties observed in materials. This field not only provides insight into the fundamental principles governing matter but also drives technological advancements in electronics, nanotechnology, and quantum computing.
Historically, condensed matter physics evolved from solid-state physics, which primarily focused on crystalline solids and their electronic properties. The development of quantum mechanics in the early 20th century revolutionized the field, leading to an in-depth understanding of electronic band structures and the behavior of semiconductors. With time, the study expanded to include a broader range of materials, including amorphous solids, polymers, superconductors, and complex fluids. Today, condensed matter physics plays a crucial role in material science, engineering, and applied physics, shaping modern technological advancements.
One of the key aspects of condensed matter physics is the study of crystal structures and atomic interactions. The arrangement of atoms in a solid determines its electronic, thermal, and mechanical properties. Crystals are defined by periodic arrangements of atoms, forming lattice structures that can be analyzed using mathematical tools like the reciprocal lattice and Brillouin zones. In contrast, amorphous materials, such as glass, lack long-range order but still exhibit unique physical properties. The bonding mechanisms in solids—ionic, covalent, metallic, and van der Waals interactions—play a crucial role in determining the stability and functionality of materials.
