Sinopse

Mouse Trap Snaps explores the surprising history and mechanical ingenuity behind the ubiquitous 1894 mousetrap spring. More than just a pest control device, this simple invention offers a window into the history of technology and our ongoing efforts to manage rodent populations. The book uniquely blends historical context with mechanical engineering principles, revealing how this seemingly mundane object reflects broader social and environmental challenges. Did you know the rise of cities in the late 19th century significantly increased rodent problems, creating a need for more effective traps? The book also highlights how the spring's design showcases clever application of force and material science.

 
The book begins by examining the historical need for improved pest control, then moves into the evolution of trapping devices. It dissects the 1894 mousetrap spring's mechanics and materials, and explores design variations and adaptations. Archival research and patent documentation ground the analysis, while engineering principles help explain the trap's function. The book offers a unique perspective on the environmental impact and ethical considerations of pest management.

    This bundle has 2 titles, which will all help you become a better marketer. The titles are: 
    Affiliate Marketing - Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing strategy in which businesses reward individuals, known as affiliates, for driving traffic or sales to their products or services. This model benefits both the merchant and the affiliate: the merchant gains exposure and potential sales, while the affiliate earns commissions based on their promotional efforts. Unlike traditional advertising, affiliate marketing offers affiliates the opportunity to earn income without creating their own products or services, making it an attractive and accessible business model. 
    Digital Niche Marketing - By tailoring campaigns to resonate with these unique groups, brands can foster stronger connections, drive higher engagement, and establish themselves as trusted experts within a particular domain. This approach helps brands stand out in an oversaturated digital environment, where audiences are increasingly selective about what content they engage with and trust.

    Is the human body built for Mars? NASA's studies on the International Space Station show we need to fix a few things before sending people to the Red Planet. Astronauts go into space with good vision and come back needing eyeglasses. Cognition and DNA expression could be affected for years. And then there's the discomfort of living in a tight space with crewmates, depression, and separation from the people you love. 
     
     
     
    Space doctors are on the case. You'll meet the first twin to spend a year in space, the woman who racked up three physically challenging spacewalks in between 320 days of confinement, and the cosmonaut who was temporarily stranded on space station Mir while the Soviet Union broke up underneath him. What are we learning about the human body? 
     
     
     
    As astronauts target moon missions and eventual landings on Mars, one of the major questions is how the human body will behave in "partial gravity." How does the human body change on another world, as opposed to floating freely in microgravity? What can studies on Earth and in space tell us about planetary exploration? These questions will be important to the future of space exploration and to related studies of seniors and people with reduced mobility on Earth.

    Take a trip beyond this Earth to explore the myths of The Mandalorian and uncover the anatomy of the newest space western in the Star Wars Universe. Star Wars dominates the film world. The combined box office revenue of the Star Wars movies equates to over $10 billion, making it the second highest-grossing film franchise of all time. But this franchise is no blaster from the past. Its fantastically successful films have now been followed by multiple television series set in that same galaxy far, far away. The franchise’s flagship television series, and likely the firmest fan favorite for some time to come, is The Mandalorian. Tracing the tale of the titular bounty hunter, traveling across the furthest reaches of that mythic galaxy, The Mandalorian has been greatly praised and highly acclaimed for creating characters with gravitas and originality, worlds with depth and impact, resulting in some of the best Star Wars content ever. Even though it’s set in deep space, The Mandalorian has as much in common with Western movies as it does with science fiction. Saloons. Bandits. “Gun” duels. Bounty hunters. Outlaws with a price on their heads. Space exploration as a “final frontier.” And a wild hero who doesn’t quite belong in a lawless part of the Galaxy after the fall of Empire. The Science of The Mandalorian takes you on a badass journey with a mysterious, lone gunfighter in the outer reaches of the galaxy, where your beskar armor will protect you from many things, but not the sight of a small, green, carnivorous humanoid with big black eyes and mysterious powers. This is the way.

    In today’s world, the majority of asset-intensive organizations are still stuck with complex, rigid, and sometimes antiquated technology solutions that simply cannot step up to evolving challenges and an ever-changing market. Why do the world’s most important industries—ones that billions of people rely on for essential human needs—operate with approaches that run the risk of making them extremely inefficient and brittle? 
    What if it didn’t have to be that way? 
    Imagine a world where companies can move successfully into the future, where these brittle solutions are replaced with a flexible, simple approach that also delivers enterprise-grade capabilities. This book introduces asset operations management (AOM), an operating principle founded on the belief that asset-intensive organizations have much to gain by adopting new approaches to data, collaboration, and communication—all supported by modern, consumer-grade technology experiences. 
    The best-of-breed organizations in asset-intensive industries have been changing the way their businesses run for years, and they’re reaping the rewards. The rest of the pack is struggling to keep up in the new paradigm—one where asset operations is central to operating efficiency and organizational resilience. 
    ***All proceeds from this book are donated to fund industry association memberships and certifications for Maintenance and Reliability professionals to help up-level their careers and thus our industries as a whole.***
