Synopsis

Floating City Concepts explores the groundbreaking idea of water-based urban living as a response to climate change and overpopulation. The book examines the feasibility of floating cities, highlighting how these innovative structures could provide a sustainable solution to rising sea levels and land scarcity. It delves into the technological and engineering challenges of building stable, self-sufficient floating communities, while also considering the socio-economic factors that influence their adoption and governance. Readers will gain insights into how integrating cutting-edge marine engineering with comprehensive urban planning can create resilient urban environments. The book emphasizes the importance of environmental sustainability and social equity in floating city development. It showcases the potential of these cities to harmonize with aquatic environments, drawing on historical precedents of human settlements on water. Floating City Concepts progresses from an introduction to the core concept, through engineering and urban planning considerations, to practical applications across different geographical and socio-economic contexts. The evidence is based on a synthesis of academic research, engineering reports, and climate change models.

    Discover the secret method used to build the world . . . 
     
     
     
    For millennia, humans have used one simple method to solve problems. Whether it's planting crops, building skyscrapers, developing photographs, or designing the first microchip, all creators follow the same steps to engineer progress. But this powerful method, the "engineering method", is an all but hidden process that few of us have heard of—let alone understand—but that influences every aspect of our lives. 
     
     
     
    Bill Hammack, a Carl Sagan Award–winning professor of engineering and viral "The Engineer Guy" on YouTube, has a lifelong passion for the things we make, and how we make them. Now, for the first time, he reveals the invisible method behind every invention and takes us on a whirlwind tour of how humans built the world we know today. From the grand stone arches of medieval cathedrals to the mundane modern soda can, Hammack explains the golden rule of thumb that underlies every new building technique, every technological advancement, and every creative solution that leads us one step closer to a better, more functional world. Spanning centuries and cultures, Hammack offers a fascinating perspective on how humans engineer solutions in a world full of problems.
