Sinopsis

Mud Brick Revival highlights the resurgence of adobe construction as a sustainable and economically sound alternative for modern homebuilding. It argues for the environmental advantages, structural integrity, and economic feasibility of using mud brick, or adobe, as a primary building material. The book explores the potential of earthen materials to meet contemporary housing needs, drawing on historical precedents and modern engineering principles. Adobe's breathability and thermal mass contribute to energy-efficient housing, making homes more comfortable.

 
The book systematically progresses through key areas, beginning with the history and evolution of mud brick techniques across various cultures. It then examines the environmental benefits of adobe, comparing its carbon footprint to conventional materials. Case studies from around the world showcase innovative designs and engineering, followed by an analysis of the economic aspects, including material costs and long-term energy savings. This offers a practical, solutions-oriented guide for architects, builders, and homeowners interested in environmentally conscious building and sustainable homes.

    Illness is not simply a matter of biology. Our thoughts, conscious or otherwise, can make us feel pain or become unwell. If you experienced side effects from your Covid vaccine, the chances are that these were caused by your belief that you would experience them. When a nurse tells you 'this is going to hurt', it generally does - but perhaps it shouldn't. 
     
    In this revelatory study, neuroscientist Helen Pilcher explores the hidden impact of the 'nocebo effect' - the placebo's evil twin. Medical studies have proven the nocebo effect to cause pain, nausea, paralysis, seizures, and even blindness. The nocebo effect impacts how we grow sick and grow old, explains why people who don't have food allergies have dietary intolerances, and why adults and teenagers are equally susceptible to catching tics through social media. 
     
    From Havana Syndrome to hex deaths, chronic pain and mystery illnesses, this book explains what happens when illness, psychology and society meet - and shows us what we can do to become less ill and more well.

    In the 1960's, California's Yosemite Valley was the center of the rock-climbing universe. Young nonconformists—many of them the finest rock climbers in the world—channeled their energy toward the largely untouched walls and cracks. Soon climbers from around the globe were coming to Camp 4—gathering spot for the creators of the Golden Age of Yosemite climbing—to see what all the fuss was about. 
     
     
     
    Climber and author Steve Roper spent most of ten years living in the Yosemite Valley with its intriguing inhabitants. Camp 4 is his take on the era's top climbers and the influences behind their achievements. The text is full of stories both hilarious and revealing about the likes of bolt-disdaining Royal Robbins; fun-loving, big-wall expert Warren Harding; free-climber Frank Sacherer; multi-talented Chuck Pratt; master craftsman Yvon Chouinard; and ill-fated Mark Powell. Roper also tips his hat to the elder statesmen of the 1930s and 1940s who pioneered early, important climbs in the valley. 
     
     
     
    Camp 4 looks at the most significant climbs, and the most riveting controversies of a legendary era. Camp 4 is the definitive history of Yosemite climbing during this period.
