Sinopse

Wind Ships explores the exciting resurgence of wind-assisted propulsion (WAPS) in the maritime industry, offering a path towards sustainable shipping. It examines how modern cargo ships can harness wind power to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and minimize the environmental impact of global trade. One intriguing insight is the potential for significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, improving air quality in port cities. The book uniquely balances technological feasibility, environmental benefits, and economic viability, presenting a comprehensive view for industry professionals and environmental advocates alike.

 
The book investigates various WAPS designs, from rotor sails to kite sails, and analyzes their performance through real-world case studies. It quantifies emissions reductions and assesses the economic factors driving WAPS adoption, offering a framework for evaluating return on investment.

 
By starting with the fundamental principles of wind-assisted propulsion, dedicating chapters to specific WAPS designs, and culminating with an analysis of economic factors, the book provides a clear progression of information.

 
The book argues that wind-assisted propulsion is a viable component of a sustainable future by demonstrating how innovative engineering and advanced materials are transforming wind power into a competitive alternative to conventional fuel sources.

Why? The Purpose of the Universe

Philip Goff

Why are we here? What's the point of existence? On the "big questions" of meaning and purpose, Western thought has been dominated by the dichotomy of traditional religion and secular atheism. In this pioneering work, Philip Goff argues that it is time to move on from both God and atheism. Through an exploration of contemporary cosmology and cutting-edge philosophical research on consciousness, Goff argues for cosmic purpose: the idea that the universe is directed towards certain goals, such as the emergence of life. 
 
 
 
In contrast to religious thinkers, Goff argues that the traditional God is a bad explanation of cosmic purpose. Instead, he explores a range of alternative possibilities for accounting for cosmic purpose, from the speculation that we live in a computer simulation to the hypothesis that the universe itself is a conscious mind. Goff scrutinizes these options with analytical rigor, laying the foundations for a new paradigm of philosophical inquiry into the middle ground between God and atheism. Ultimately, Goff outlines a way of living in hope that cosmic purpose is still unfolding, involving political engagement and a non-literalist interpretation of traditional religion.

The Shocking Truth about Online...

Zoey Fraisers

In today’s digital world, privacy is no longer a given—it’s something we must actively fight to protect. Every time we browse the web, use social media, or make online purchases, we leave behind a trail of personal data. This data is collected, analyzed, and often sold without our knowledge. Many people believe that if they have “nothing to hide,” they have nothing to worry about. However, this misconception ignores the real risks of online privacy erosion.
Companies, governments, and cybercriminals are constantly gathering information about individuals, using it for targeted advertising, surveillance, and even fraud. The websites you visit, the products you search for, and even the time you spend on a page are all tracked to create a detailed profile of who you are. This data is used to manipulate consumer behavior, influence political opinions, and, in some cases, restrict freedoms. Governments argue that surveillance is necessary for national security, but history has shown that mass data collection can lead to severe privacy violations and even oppression.
Beyond corporations and governments, cybercriminals exploit the vast amount of personal information available online. Data breaches have become more frequent, exposing millions of users to identity theft, fraud, and financial losses. Social engineering scams take advantage of publicly available data, making it easier for criminals to deceive and manipulate individuals. The more our private information is exposed, the more vulnerable we become to digital threats.

Theatres of Memory: Industrial...

Loh Kah Seng, Alex Tan Tiong...

Most of the old factories are long gone and many workers have retired. Combining history, memory and heritage, Theatres of Memory: Industrial Heritage of 20th Century Singapore takes a stroll through Singapore’s industrial past. From Jurong to Redhill and Kallang, the book uncovers the many hands that enabled the island’s transformation from a colonial entrepôt to an industrial nation. 
 
Along the way, we will meet the pioneers of industry—government officials and production workers, men and women, Singaporeans and foreigners. We will hear laughter on the assembly line, descend into the quiet dark of the night shift, and relive the products once made in Singapore, from Rollei cameras and Acma refrigerators to carbonated soft drinks and Bata shoes.
