  "No Way Down is both a gripping read and a clear-eyed investigation of the hubris, politics, and bad luck that brought on one of the worst disasters in modern mountaineering history." —Michael Kodas, author of High Crimes: The Fate of Everest in an Age of Greed 
   
   
   
  "Graham Bowley's No Way Down does a great job of putting you on the mountain. It is a refreshingly unadorned account of the true brutality of climbing K2, where heroes emerge and egos are stripped down, and the only thing achieving immortality is the cold ruthless mountain." —Norman Ollestad, author of Crazy for the Storm 
   
   
   
  In the tradition of Into Thin Air and Touching the Void, No Way Down by New York Times reporter Graham Bowley is the harrowing account of the worst mountain climbing disaster on K2, second to Everest in height . . . but second to no peak in terms of danger. From tragic deaths to unbelievable stories of heroism and survival, No Way Down is an amazing feat of storytelling and adventure writing, and, in the words of explorer and author Sir Ranulph Fiennes, "the closest you can come to being on the summit of K2 on that fateful day."

  The Control of Nature is John McPhee's bestselling account of places where people are locked in combat with nature. Taking us deep into these contested territories, McPhee details the strategies and tactics through which people attempt to control nature. Most striking is his depiction of the main contestants: nature in complex and awesome guises, and those attempting to wrest control from her—stubborn, sometimes foolhardy, more often ingenious, and always arresting characters.

  The Physics of Everyday Things -...

  Motion is a fundamental aspect of the physical world, affecting everything we do and experience. From walking down the street to driving a car, the principles of motion are always at work. In physics, understanding the forces that cause and influence motion is essential to understanding how objects behave in the world around us. This chapter will explore Newton's laws of motion and the application of forces in our daily lives, helping to make sense of the movements and actions that shape our experiences. 
  At the heart of motion is Newton's First Law, also known as the Law of Inertia. This law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force. Essentially, things like to keep doing what they’re doing. For instance, a car coasting down the highway will continue moving unless the brakes are applied, or friction slows it down. This simple concept explains why, when you're in a car that suddenly stops, you feel as if you're still moving forward—your body wants to keep going, even though the car has halted. The application of this principle is not limited to vehicles but can be observed in everyday activities, like pushing a shopping cart or standing still on a bus that starts to move. 
  Newton's Second Law, the Law of Acceleration, takes it further. It tells us that the force applied to an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration (F = ma). This means that heavier objects require more force to accelerate, while lighter objects can be moved more easily. When you push a sled across the snow, the amount of effort you need depends on how much the sled weighs and how fast you want it to move. This relationship helps explain why it’s harder to get a heavy truck moving than a small bicycle. Understanding this law helps us calculate everything from how much effort it takes to lift an object to how quickly a rocket can launch into space.

  Fashion After Fifty - A Guide to...

  The trouble with being over fifty is that everything starts to change. By sixty, gravity has started to pull hard and by seventy there is an urgent need to cover up some of the wobbly bits. The female ageing process has not been helped by society’s worship of youth and airbrushed beauty. Yet despite the youth-obsessed society of which the fashion industry is only one reflection, women continue to need to feel good about themselves, to nurture their self-confidence; to re-educate themselves about what works and why, to seek new doyennes of style and to retain beauty that is attainable past the first blush of youth.
  In this timely new edition of her tongue-in-cheek look at the fashion world, Kaaren Hale gives us her take on the industry and how to confidently find your own style in an ever-changing and confusing landscape.The women of her generation are the product of the conservative Fifties, the Swinging Sixties, the boom-boom Eighties and sober Nineties. They have enjoyed many heydays and aren’t ready to give up just yet. So why is it that the fashion industry, with few exceptions, directs all its ideas to the very young?
  Although the lack of style mentors and fashion choices is disheartening, women do not have to fill their wardrobes with dreary clothes, insensitive to the high-spirited girl inside them who still craves fashion adventure. They may not have Donna Karan to guide them personally through the minefield of middle age, but they can learn from their peers who already know how to do it – and enjoy the ride. This is a book for a generation of women that has done it all, seen it all and still wants to look – and feel – good.
