Sinopsis

How Light Bends explores the fascinating physics of refraction, explaining why light changes direction when moving between different materials like air and water. The book explains how this bending affects our everyday experiences, from the distorted view of objects underwater to the captivating display of rainbows. Readers will gain insight into Snell's Law and the index of refraction, key concepts controlling how light behaves, and how these principles underpin various optical phenomena. The book progresses from fundamental principles to real-world applications across three sections. First, it introduces the physics of refraction. Then, it dives into specific examples such as lenses, underwater vision, and mirages. Finally, it explores practical applications in fiber optics and advanced imaging. This approach bridges physics, atmospheric science, and optics, revealing how understanding refraction is vital for both explaining natural occurrences and developing advanced technologies.

    Record rain fall and extreme climates have become a common occurrence around the world. The television news shows farmers standing in front of their flooded fields; the ground too wet to harvest one season's crop, or to plant the next. Our climate is changing, but agriculture is not just the victim of climate change - it is one of the major drivers too. Our food systems are responsible for around a third of all greenhouse gases.
    
    
    
    In this book, Sarah Bearchell explores how agriculture is using targeted breeding, automation and precision inputs to produce more with less. She considers how we can reduce our impact by addressing problems in our food system, from packaging and transport to the incredible quantities of waste. As consumers, we can make small changes straight away and push for long term change in the wider system. Agriculture can become a force for good, but it needs our help.
