Sinossi

Tidal Barrage Potential explores the viability of tidal barrages as a source of renewable energy. It examines how these structures, harnessing tidal power, could offer a predictable alternative to fossil fuels. The book dives into the engineering principles of barrage design, the impact on marine ecosystems, and the economic viability of these projects. Readers will discover that while tidal barrages offer a steady energy source, their adoption relies on minimizing environmental disruption and ensuring economic feasibility.

 
The book uniquely integrates scientific research with practical engineering, providing a balanced assessment of the technology's potential and limitations. It begins by introducing tidal energy principles and barrage design, then progresses through construction, turbine technology, and energy storage. A significant portion addresses environmental consequences, using hydrodynamic models and ecological simulations to quantify impacts on marine life. Case studies from successful and unsuccessful projects worldwide provide valuable lessons.

 
Ultimately, the book offers policy recommendations for responsible tidal energy development.

    Your Heart Is the Size of Your Fist draws readers into the complicated, poignant, and often-overlooked daily happenings of a busy urban medical clinic for refugees.
    		 
    An Iraqi journalist whose son has been been murdered develops post-traumatic stress disorder and mourns his loss of vocation. A Congolese woman refuses antiretroviral treatment for her new HIV diagnosis, and instead places her trust in Jesus. Two conservative Muslim Iraqi women are inadvertently exposed to pornography when a doctor uses Google Images to supplement a medical discussion. By turns humorous, distressing, and moving, these stories offer insight into the people seeking a new life while navigating poverty, language barriers, and neighbours who aren’t always friendly.
    		 
    This riveting collection of true stories from Dr. Martina Scholtens is filled with hope and humour, and together make up a deeply moving portrait of how one doctor attempts to provide quality care and advocacy for patients while remaining culturally sensitive, even as she wrestles with guilt, awareness of her own privilege, the faith she was raised with, and vicarious trauma after hearing countless stories of brutality and suffering.
    		 
    In the spirit of Louise Aronson and Atul Gawande, Scholtens’ writing is based on her personal experiences and explores the transformative moments in which a clinical doctor-patient relationship becomes a profound human-human connection.

    Spirit and Science are viewed as opposing views. I have lived my life in the middle of this divide. Trained as an engineer and scientist, I was taught to trust logic, mathematics, and experimental proof.  
    Yet my personal experiences — from moments of prophecy to direct awareness of subtle energies — convinced me that there is more to reality than conventional science admits.  
    For years I tried to keep the two worlds separate: the rational and the mystical. But over time, the boundary dissolved. I realized that both perspectives describe the same universe from different vantage points.  
    My work, and this book in particular, is about restoring the unity that once existed between them. 
    The purpose of this book is not to replace science with mysticism, nor to reduce spiritual experience to chemistry or neurology. Rather, it aims to show that consciousness, energy, and matter are aspects of a single integrated system.
