Sinopsis

Russian Space explores the compelling history of Russia's, and previously the Soviet Union's, contributions to space exploration. From the pioneering launch of Sputnik, the first artificial satellite, to Yuri Gagarin becoming the first human in space, the book examines the interwoven aspects of scientific breakthroughs, political ambitions, and human determination that propelled the Russian space program forward. The narrative challenges Western-centric views by highlighting the unique technological and scientific contributions from a different cultural and political perspective. The book also dives into the intense Cold War space race, detailing how competition with the United States influenced technological development and the inherent risks involved. Furthermore, it analyzes the program's resilience following the Soviet Union's collapse, emphasizing its adaptation, financial challenges, and crucial international collaborations, especially with the International Space Station. Presenting information chronologically, the book begins with the theoretical groundwork laid by Russian scientists, then delves into Soviet advancements, Cold War competition, and modern-day collaborations, using declassified documents, technical reports, and firsthand accounts to provide a balanced and nuanced perspective.

    Of all the unexploited resources in the world, seaweed is the greatest. Without it, there would be no crustaceans, nor fish. The ocean would be a desert without carbon or oxygen, and half of our atmosphere’s oxygen would be gone.  
    The most recent research tells us that seaweed is one possible solution for our future on the planet. It could feed human beings, reduce plastic pollution, absorb enough carbon to cool the atmosphere, reconstruct generative ecosystems, treat certain illnesses that are incurable today, replace land livestock farming that exhausts the environment, and give jobs to coastal populations. 
    The seaweed revolution is a hope for tomorrow!

    In Beyond the Tired: Understanding Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, readers will discover a compassionate, thorough exploration of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), or myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME)—a condition that has left millions feeling exhausted, misunderstood, and often invisible. This comprehensive book delves into the unique challenges faced by those with CFS/ME, blending scientific insights with real-life stories to shed light on one of the most complex and underdiagnosed health conditions in the modern world. 
    Unlike ordinary fatigue, chronic fatigue syndrome impacts nearly every aspect of life, causing overwhelming physical and mental exhaustion that doesn't improve with rest. This book explains how CFS manifests and why it's more than just feeling tired. It examines the primary symptoms, from post-exertional malaise to "brain fog," muscle and joint pain, and the severe impacts on the nervous, immune, and cardiovascular systems. With sensitivity and clarity, Beyond the Tired gives readers an accessible yet detailed understanding of the symptoms, allowing loved ones and those unfamiliar with the illness to gain valuable insight into the day-to-day experience of CFS/ME sufferers. 
    Whether you're a patient, a loved one, or a healthcare professional, Beyond the Tired is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to better understand chronic fatigue syndrome. This book aims to demystify CFS, bridging the gap between medical science and the lived experience of patients. Through a balanced approach that combines science with empathy, Beyond the Tired ultimately seeks to bring awareness, validation, and hope to everyone touched by this often invisible illness.

    From Impossible Burgers to lab-made sushi, two witty, plugged-in food scientists explore leading-edge AgTech for the answer to feeding a settlement on Mars—and nine billion Earthlings too 
     
     
     
    Feeding a Martian is one of the greatest challenges in the history of agriculture. Will a Red Planet menu involve cheese and ice cream made from vats of fermented yeast? Will medicine cabinets overflow with pharmaceuticals created from engineered barley grown using geothermal energy? Will the protein of choice feature a chicken breast grown in a lab? Weird, wonderful, and sometimes disgusting, figuring out "what's for dinner on Mars" is far from trivial. If we can figure out how to sustain ourselves on Mars, we will know how to do it on Earth too. In Dinner on Mars, authors Fraser and Newman show how setting the table off-planet will supercharge efforts to produce food sustainably here at home. 
     
     
     
    For futurists, sci-fi geeks, tech nuts, business leaders, and anyone interested in the future of food, Dinner on Mars puts sustainability and adaptability on the menu in the face of our climate crisis.

    When you stare into the shadows... do the shadows stare back? 
    Sasquatch! Mothman! Nessie! The Jackalope! Many cryptids are famous, but which ones are real? Search beyond blurry photos and sketchy eye-witness accounts to examine physical evidence of cryptids that shows... how we know they are real. 
    Sample passages: 
    From Chapter 1 
    "Studying cryptids sharpens the mental tools needed to cut through the thickets of misleading and incomplete evidence. The skills you’ll practice as you judge the existence of Bigfoot can be used to analyze any number of scientific, commercial, political, or philosophical claims. The study of cryptids can lead the open-minded explorer into a better understanding and appreciation of our world. 
    From Chapter 16 
    "The giant squid swims through deep, dark seas surrounded by things we’ll never see, and can’t imagine. 
    In this light, the fact that anyone would state that we’ve already discovered every large creature in the wild is a foolish claim. Just because something is unknown isn’t proof that it’s unreal. If someone tells you a certain cryptid doesn’t exist, there’s no reason to accept that as the final word. There can be no final word. Reality is still being discovered and understood, and there’s an infinite supply of the unknown to transform into the knowable."
