Sinossi

"Robotic Prosthetic Advances" explores the remarkable progress in artificial limbs, focusing on how enhanced sensory feedback through advanced sensor integration and refined motor control systems are revolutionizing the field. Imagine a prosthetic hand capable of sensing texture or temperature; this book highlights how such tactile feedback is becoming a reality, offering amputees a more complete sensory experience. The advancements discussed aim to restore not just physical function but also a greater sense of embodiment.

 
The book details the evolution of prosthetics, starting from basic mechanical devices to today's computer-controlled systems, emphasizing the critical juncture where improved sensing and refined motor control converge. Divided into sections on sensor innovations and motor control improvements, it examines topics like pattern recognition, machine learning for adaptive control, and myoelectric systems that more accurately interpret muscle signals. It emphasizes a user-centered approach, exploring how these devices impact lives.

 
Concluding with a look at remaining challenges, "Robotic Prosthetic Advances" addresses the need for more durable materials, sophisticated neural interfaces, and affordable access. By presenting the ethical and societal implications alongside the scientific breakthroughs, it offers a balanced perspective on the future of assistive technology and its potential to blur the lines between human and machine.

    This book must not be ignored. It really is our final warning. 
    Mark Lynas delivers a vital account of the future of our earth, and our civilisation, if current rates of global warming persist. And it’s only looking worse. 
    We are living in a climate emergency. But how much worse could it get? Will civilisation collapse? Are we already past the point of no return? What kind of future can our children expect? Rigorously cataloguing the very latest climate science, Mark Lynas explores the course we have set for Earth over the next century and beyond. Degree by terrifying degree, he charts the likely consequences of global heating and the ensuing climate catastrophe.   
    At one degree – the world we are already living in – vast wildfires scorch California and Australia, while monster hurricanes devastate coastal cities. At two degrees the Arctic ice cap melts away, and coral reefs disappear from the tropics. At three, the world begins to run out of food, threatening millions with starvation. At four, large areas of the globe are too hot for human habitation, erasing entire nations and turning billions into climate refugees. At five, the planet is warmer than for 55 million years, while at six degrees a mass extinction of unparalleled proportions sweeps the planet, even raising the threat of the end of all life on Earth.  
    These escalating consequences can still be avoided, but time is running out. We must largely stop burning fossil fuels within a decade if we are to save the coral reefs and the Arctic. If we fail, then we risk crossing tipping points that could push global climate chaos out of humanity’s control.  
    This book must not be ignored. It really is our final warning. 
    Mark Lynas, in his best work yet, delves into the political and environmental policy changes necessary for our protection against these natural disasters. His compelling narrative urges the public to acknowledge the dire need for conservation and change. 
    For fans of Michael E. Mann (Our Fragile Moment), Annie Jacobsen (First Platoon), Mike Berners-Lee (A Climate of Truth), Tim Marshall (Prisoners of Geography), and Bill Gates (Source Code).
