Sinopse

What Is Space Based Solar Power
 
The notion of space-based solar power refers to the gathering of solar energy in outer space by solar power satellites (SPS) and the subsequent transmission of that energy to Earth. Outside of the atmosphere, sunlight is able to shine for longer periods of time and is brighter overall. Solar power systems that are stationed in space are able to transform sunlight into another kind of energy that is then able to be sent via the atmosphere to receivers located on the surface of the earth. Those who are looking for answers on a massive scale to problems like anthropogenic climate change or the depletion of fossil fuels may find it appealing.

    When Ashley Shew became a self-described "hard-of-hearing chemobrained amputee with Crohn's disease and tinnitus," there was no returning to "normal." Suddenly well-meaning people called her an "inspiration" while grocery shopping or viewed her as a needy recipient of technological wizardry. Most disabled people don't want what the abled assume they want—nor are they generally asked. 
     
     
     
    In vibrant prose, Shew shows how we can create better narratives and more accessible futures by drawing from the insights of the cross-disability community. To forge a more equitable world, Shew argues that we must eliminate "technoableism"—the harmful belief that technology is a "solution" for disability; that the disabled simply await being "fixed" by technological wizardry; that making society more accessible and equitable is somehow a lesser priority. 
     
     
     
    This badly needed introduction to disability expertise considers mobility devices, medical infrastructure, neurodivergence, and the relationship between disability and race. The future, Shew points out, is surely disabled—whether through changing climate, new diseases, or even through space travel. It's time we looked closely at how we all think about disability technologies and learn to envision disabilities not as liabilities, but as skill sets enabling all of us to navigate a challenging world.

    If your body still lives in the past even though your mind knows you're safe, then keep reading...
     
    
     
    You've tried talking about it. You've tried thinking your way through it. But trauma doesn't live in your thoughts—it lives in your nervous system.
     
    Your body is still keeping score, even when you're trying to move on.
     
    Traditional therapy asks you to understand your trauma. Polyvagal Theory teaches you to release it. Not through more talking, but through understanding the language your nervous system has been screaming in all along.
     
    This isn't about reliving your past. It's about rewiring your present.
     
    
     
    You'll discover:
    
    Why your body reacts before your mind can catch up
    How your vagus nerve controls your sense of safety
    The science behind why you freeze, flee, or fight
    How to shift from survival mode to thriving mode
    Why "just calm down" has never worked for you
    The missing piece in traditional trauma therapy
    
     
    Healing trauma isn't about being strong enough to push through it.
     
    It's about being wise enough to work with your body's natural systems. Your nervous system isn't broken—it's been protecting you. Now it's time to teach it that the danger has passed.

    Running After Paradise - Hope...

    Brazil’s Atlantic Forest is a paradise to many. In Southern Bahia, surfers, billionaires, travelers, and hippies mingle with environmentalists, family farmers, quilombolas (descendants of formerly enslaved people), and nativos, or “locals.” Each of these groups has connections to the unique environment, culture, and character of this region as their home, their source of a livelihood, or perhaps their vacation escape. And while these connections sometimes converge, at other times they clash. 
    The pressures on this tropical forest are palpable, and people’s responses to these pressures are also varied. What was once the state’s economic mainstay, cacao production, is only now beginning to make a comeback after a disease decimated the crops of large and small farmers alike. Tourism, another economic hope, is susceptible to economic crises and pandemics. And the threat of a massive state-led infrastructure project involving mining, a railroad, and an international port has loomed over the region for well over a decade. 
    Southern Bahia is at a crossroads: develop a sustainable, forest-based economy or risk losing the identity and soul of this place forevermore. Through the lives of environmentalists, farmers, quilombolas, and nativos—people who are in and of this place—this book brings the people alive who are grappling with this dilemma. 
    Anthropologist Colleen M. Scanlan Lyons brings the eye of a storyteller to present this complex struggle, weaving in her own challenges of balancing family and fieldwork alongside the stories of the people who live in this dynamic region. Intertwined tales, friendships, and hope emerge as people both struggle to sustain their lives in a biodiversity hotspot and strive to create their paradise. 
    For those interested, this book is also available in e-book and physical print formats, which contain the table of contents, maps, acknowledgements, pictures of the people and stories featured, footnotes, references, and an index.

    An eye- (and ear-) opening investigation into how the cacophony of our ever-noisier world affects our health, our well-being, and our planet. 
     
     
     
    Early-morning jackhammering from construction down the block. The dull roar of jet overflights. Your officemate's phone conversations. Noise is everywhere, disrupting our sleep, ratcheting up our stress, destroying our concentration—yet it's a problem that many of us shrug off once the immediate annoyance passes. In Clamor, Chris Berdik reveals noise as one of the most pervasive, yet underacknowledged, pollutants in our daily lives, the harms of which extend far beyond our hearing, from our children's learning outcomes to our longevity to the natural world around us. 
     
     
     
    We systemically neglect life's sonic dimension at our peril—not only driving up the racket but failing to harness sound's great potential. Berdik introduces us to the researchers, rock stars, architects, and many others who are finding surprising ways to make our world sound not only less bad, but better. Rising above the ever-increasing din, Clamor is an urgent—and ultimately inspiring—call to reconsider our relationship to our world's soundscapes.
