Summary

"Urban Water Management" tackles the urgent issue of ensuring reliable and sustainable water supplies for growing cities amidst increasing demand and climate change. The book addresses challenges such as aging infrastructure and complex wastewater treatment processes, vital for public health and economic stability. Interestingly, many current urban water systems rely on outdated models. The book highlights that achieving true water security requires an integrated approach, combining infrastructure improvements, technological innovation, and policy reforms.

 
The book examines existing urban water supply system limitations, wastewater treatment technologies, and the integration of environmental engineering principles. Beginning with fundamental concepts like urban hydrology and water demand forecasting, it delves into water supply infrastructure specifics. Subsequent chapters explore advanced wastewater treatment technologies, including membrane bioreactors. Case studies demonstrate practical applications, culminating in integrated water resource management, emphasizing stakeholder collaboration. This comprehensive approach distinguishes the book, offering practical, evidence-based solutions for environmental engineers, urban planners, and policymakers.

    We all know someone who has been touched by cancer, but for many diagnosed with the disease, that is where the human touch stops. 
    Oncology massage brings us gentle human touch when we are feeling our most vulnerable, safely creating a longed-for sense of peace, wholeness and hope. 
    In this must-read book for any practitioner, carer or patient, Eleanor Oyston shares her story of bringing oncology massage to Australia. 
    After many years as a scientist, Eleanor went from diagnosing cancer in a lab to massaging clients with a variety of medical conditions. Very quickly, she witnessed the amazing benefits and knew she wanted to spread the word. 
    This is Eleanor's story of determination, passion, commitment and vision to give others the gift of compassionate, mindful touch. 
    'Cancer is rough. Cancer treatments are brutal. I can't tell you how much oncology massage has helped with my pain and fatigue. I feel less anxious and depressed, and it has improved the quality of the time I have left.As far as I'm concerned, oncology massage is value for money, no argument. Just don't take all the appointment slots!'

    Types of UFOs Observed in History

    My goal in this book is to show the different types of UFOs reported throughout history and today. 
    I’m not trying to prove whether these ships are real or not. I just thought that given the many thousands of sightings of UFOs there should be some commonalities between the sightings. 
    Some of the questions I want to answer include: 
    Are there any trends in these sightings? 
    Is there an evolution in the design of these vehicles over time? 
    Are there some common designs over time? 
    Also, some of the UFOs sighted are likely fakes or secret projects built by the US government. I tried to show that information too. 
    Just due to the number of stars in our galaxy I’m convinced that Aliens exist and have probably visited our planet thousands or even millions of year in the past-in addition to visiting in the present. 
    This collection of historical photos, drawings, and descriptions should provide you with a narrative as to how these sightings have changed over time.

    Follow Hannah Dale's deeply personal journey as she returns her Lincolnshire farm to nature, celebrating the return of an astonishing variety of wildlife.
    Hannah Dale, the artist and founder of the award-winning nature-centric gift company Wrendale Designs, takes you through a year on her farm in rural Lincolnshire where, alongside her husband, she has undertaken an ambitious rewilding project. Together, they are attempting to return the land to nature and increase the number of species their land is able to support.
    A Wilding Year explores how one family have been able to embrace the beauty to be found in untidy landscapes, heralding the return of skylarks, meadow pipits, hobbies, polecats and many more species to their farm. The land was originally claimed from marshy wetlands, and leaning into the land's natural inclination to be wet has also yielded amazing ponds and pond life.
    This rewilding journey has also provided Hannah with new sources of inspiration for her paintings. A Wilding Year is both a journal and a sketchbook, in which Hannah keeps a visual record of the incredible variety of species she finds on the farm.
    This fascinating account of a year spent in nature brings to life the beauty and power of wildlife in every season.
