Summary

"Vertical Farming Solutions" explores the promise of vertical farming as a key component of future food systems. It examines how these indoor farms maximize crop yields in limited spaces, potentially revolutionizing sustainable agriculture. The book highlights intriguing facts, such as the ability to precisely control growing conditions using LED lighting, climate control, and sensor technologies, and the potential to significantly reduce water consumption compared to traditional farming.

 
The book takes a multifaceted approach, starting with the science behind hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics. It then moves into the technological aspects, including automation and climate control, before analyzing the economic and social implications, such as business models and community access. This comprehensive view allows readers to understand the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats associated with vertical farming.

 
By combining empirical data with systems thinking, the book presents a balanced perspective on this emerging field. It avoids utopian fantasies while also moving past premature dismissals, offering valuable insights for policymakers, investors, entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in food security and environmental sustainability. The book progresses across chapters, building from core principles to economic impacts, providing a thorough understanding of vertical farming's potential and limitations.

    In this enlightening work,The New Yorker's longtime Middle East correspondent, Milton Viorst contends that today's Arab-American conflict is the latest round in a 1,400-year clash between Islam and Christianity. As Islamic power weakened, Ottoman Turks eventually swallowed up the entire Arab world by 1600. When the Ottoman Empire collapsed after WWI, the controversial Sykes-Picot Treaty gave the French control of Syria and Lebanon and let the British rule Iraq, Jordan, Egypt, and Palestine. Angry and frustrated at not receiving their promised self-rule, disgruntled Arabs waged an almost constant guerrilla warfare against their European overlords. Suggesting that the United States is repeating the mistakes of the past, Viorst is critical of the George W. Bush administration's Iraq policy. Paul Hecht's excellent narration of this concise Modern Library Chronicles volume clarifies the frustrations and concerns of the Arab people and effectively highlights Viorst's solutions to today's Middle Eastern conflicts. "This is an illuminating-and deeply disturbing-account of the ages-old conflict between Christian and Muslim civilizations . It is remarkable how Milton Viorst has managed to reduce a struggle so complex to such lucid prose."-Daniel Schorr, NPR Radio

    Americans knew polio as the "summer plague." In countries further North, however, the virus arrived later in the year. It was described by one writer as "the autumn ghost." 
 
 
 
Intensive care units and mechanical ventilation are the crucial foundation of modern medical care: without them, the appalling death toll of the COVID-19 pandemic would be even higher. In The Autumn Ghost, Dr. Hannah Wunsch traces the origins of these two innovations back to a polio epidemic in the autumn of 1952. Drawing together testimony from doctors, nurses, medical students, and patients, Wunsch relates a gripping tale of an epidemic that changed the world. 
 
 
 
Wunsch tells the true story of how insiders and iconoclasts came together in one overwhelmed hospital in Copenhagen to save the lives of many polio patients dying of respiratory failure. Their radical advances in care marked a turning point in the treatment of patients around the world—from the rise of life support and the creation of intensive care units to the evolution of rehabilitation medicine. 
 
 
 
The Autumn Ghost will leave listeners in awe of the courage of those who battled the polio epidemic, and grateful for the modern medical care they pioneered.

    Machine learning is fast becoming an important technique used by multiple industries, and in applications and research. But you don’t have to be part of a massive organization with an endless pot of money to get involved. 
Even beginners using the Python programming language can be a part of machine learning, and that is what this book is for. Today, the only limit to machine learning is your imagination. In this book, I provide you with an overview of machine learning and some practical work to get your hands dirty. 
Here’s what you will learn: 
·      Important machine learning concepts and applications 
·      The difference between supervised and unsupervised learning 
·      Commonly used supervised and unsupervised learning algorithms and models 
·      What libraries you will benefit from using 
·      How to visualize your data 
·      Regression and classification learning models 
·      An introduction to data science 
·      The five-step plan to becoming a data scientist 
·      Ten things that everyone needs to know about machine learning 
You’ll even get a complete hands-on project that takes you through building your own machine learning project. 
What you won't get is a lesson on using Python programming language; this book requires that you already know the basics.
