  The question is no longer if electric vehicles will happen, or even when they'll happen, but how. Veteran automotive reporter Mike Colias takes you inside the transformation in this thoroughly reported profile of the hard pivot in the car business, a $2 trillion industry undergoing the biggest change in its 120-year history—a change that is already sending ripples across the entire global economy. 
   
   
   
  Colias documents the inevitable shift from pistons to electrons from every angle, taking you inside the boardrooms where executives battle over their EV strategies to take on Tesla and, more recently, emerging Chinese powerhouses such as BYD. He brings you to family-run car dealerships deciding if they'll sell EVs—or sell their businesses. He follows entrepreneurs along lonely stretches of road that will soon need charging stations. He talks to power-train engineers whose skills were once the beating heart of the automotive industry but who now find themselves being replaced by coders. 
   
   
   
  Inevitable is a deeply enjoyable and smart book that uses masterful storytelling to capture the expanse and dynamism of the transition to electric vehicles in profound detail, bringing to life its seismic effects on everything and everyone.

  Hidden in the Heavens - How the...

  Are we alone in the universe? It's a fundamental question for Earth-dwelling humankind. Are there other worlds like ours, out there somewhere? In Hidden in the Heavens, Jason Steffen, a former scientist on NASA's Kepler mission, describes how that mission searched for planets orbiting Sun-like stars—especially Earth-like planets circulating in Earth-like orbits. What the Kepler space telescope found, Steffen reports, contradicted centuries of theoretical and observational work and transformed our understanding of planets, planetary systems, and the stars they orbit. Kepler discovered thousands of planets orbiting distant stars—a bewildering variety of celestial bodies, including rocky planets being vaporized by the intense heat of their host star; super-Earths and sub-Neptunes; gas giants several times the size and mass of Jupiter; and planets orbiting in stellar systems that had only been imagined in science fiction. 
   
   
   
  Steffen offers a unique, inside account of the work of the Kepler science team (and the sometimes chaotic interactions among team members), mapping the progress of the mission from the launch of the rocket that carried Kepler into space to the revelations of the data that began to flow to the supercomputer back at NASA—evidence of strange new worlds unlike anything found in our own solar system.

  The Shocking Truth about Energy...

  Energy powers every aspect of modern life. From the moment we wake up and turn on the lights to the devices we use, the transportation we rely on, and the industries that fuel our economies, energy consumption is deeply embedded in our daily existence. However, few of us stop to consider the true cost of our energy habits—both visible and hidden. While energy provides convenience and economic growth, it also carries significant environmental, social, and economic consequences that often go unnoticed.  
  One of the most overlooked aspects of energy consumption is its environmental impact. The majority of the world's energy still comes from fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. Burning these fuels releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane, which contribute to climate change. Rising global temperatures lead to extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and disruptions to ecosystems. Additionally, extracting and transporting fossil fuels result in deforestation, oil spills, and water contamination, all of which further degrade the planet.  
  Beyond environmental concerns, energy consumption has a direct impact on human health. Air pollution from power plants, vehicle emissions, and industrial activities causes respiratory diseases, heart conditions, and premature deaths. Communities near coal mines or oil refineries suffer from higher rates of illness due to exposure to toxic chemicals. In developing countries, millions still rely on wood, charcoal, or kerosene for cooking and heating, leading to indoor air pollution that is responsible for millions of deaths each year.
