Summary

Infrared Imaging Science reveals how invisible infrared radiation is used in medical diagnostics and security. The book explains how thermal cameras capture temperature variations to detect medical issues like inflammation or even early-stage tumors, offering a non-invasive diagnostic tool. It also explores the use of infrared imaging in security, detailing how thermal cameras enhance surveillance and detect concealed objects, particularly in low-light conditions.

 
Beginning with the physics of infrared radiation, the book explains concepts like blackbody radiation, emissivity, and transmissivity. It then progresses to the application of thermography in medicine, followed by security applications for surveillance and threat detection. This approach connects theoretical underpinnings with practical implementations, providing a comprehensive overview for students, medical professionals, and security personnel.

 
The book uniquely correlates the physics of infrared radiation with real-world applications, addressing challenges and opportunities within the field. It incorporates case studies and experimental data to support its arguments, offering insights into image processing techniques. By addressing ongoing debates, such as the effectiveness of thermography for breast cancer screening, the book provides a balanced perspective on this versatile technology.

    There are books that speak plainly, and then there are those that conceal their truths behind veils of symbol and secrecy. An Open Entrance to the Closed Palace of the King belongs to the latter—a text written not for the casual reader, but for the seeker, the alchemist, the one who dares to unlock nature’s deepest mysteries. 
    Attributed to the enigmatic adept Eirenaeus Philalethes, this work stands as a beacon in the vast sea of alchemical wisdom. It does not merely outline a path; it challenges the reader to walk it, to decipher its cryptic instructions, and to undertake the great work that transforms both matter and spirit. Here, the philosopher’s stone is more than legend—it is a living reality, hidden in plain sight for those who have eyes to see. 
    Through allegory, paradox, and careful instruction, Philalethes invites the worthy to step beyond superficial knowledge and into the sacred chamber of true alchemical wisdom. Yet, as he warns, this entrance is not open to all. It is guarded by discipline, patience, and an unwavering desire for truth. To those who would enter with arrogance or greed, the door remains firmly shut. 
    Let this preface serve as both encouragement and caution. To read this book is not enough; one must contemplate it, live its lessons, and—above all—persist in the great work. For those who seek in earnest, the palace doors will unlock, revealing treasures far beyond gold or silver. 
    The entrance is before you. Will you dare to step inside? 
    Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz.

    There are many types of cars, or automobiles, as some people like to call them. There are the ‘family’ types that facilitate our daily lives, and get us to work and the shops; then there are the work-horses, the vans, lorries and trucks, named after the animals that they replaced; and the dream cars... the Lamborghinis, Maseratis, Rolls-Royces and the like. However, a new class has arrived too – the hybrid  
    The conception of modern hybrid vehicles with their twin engines received a rather dubious first hearing by the automotive industry and the public. The cost was incredible, and the weight of two engines in one vehicle sounded unfeasible. We all know how that has turned out, but do you know how long mankind has actually been using hybrids? 
    It will probably surprise you to learn that hybrid vehicles were among the very first cars produced in the Nineteenth Century. However, they were not powerful, and mighty oil was looking for a niche. Oil, in the forms of petrol and diesel eventually shoved hybrids aside, and set the path for the automotive industry for 150 years. 
    As for auto accessories, it is in mankind’s nature to customise anywhere he spends a lot of time, such as the home, the workplace and, yes, even the car. We hang things from the rear view mirror, put items on the rear windscreen shelf, and add our favourite accessories to the dashboard. It has ever been thus. 
    I hope that you will find the information in this booklet helpful, useful and even profitable. It is relevant to the topics just mentioned, and organised into eighteen chapters of about five to six hundred words each. 
    I am certain that it will interest people who love cars and technology, and auto accessories. 
    As an added bonus, I am granting you permission to use the content on your own website or in your own blogs and newsletter, although you should rewrite them in your own words first.

    Before the podcast and the smartphone, there was the cassette tape and the Walkman — two devices that, although not considered much today, were revolutionary. They were recordable, rewritable, spliceable, compact, and mobile. For the first time, they allowed you to move through the world and listen to a voice speaking only to you. These cassette tapes brought us together, pulled us apart, and forever changed how we say those three simple words, ‘I love you.’ In five episodes from around the world, Mixtape explores the impact the cassette had and continues to have today.
