Synopsis

Rapid Ice Formation explores the science and practical challenges of sudden ice development in extreme cold environments, a phenomenon impacting travel, rescue operations, and cold-weather engineering. It highlights the factors contributing to rapid ice formation, such as supercooling and nucleation, which can quickly turn calm waters into perilous ice sheets. Understanding these processes is crucial for effective risk management in polar regions and during cold-weather disasters, as rapid icing can severely impede transportation and emergency response efforts.

 
The book examines the environmental conditions that lead to rapid ice formation, the effects of ice accumulation on vehicle performance and navigation, and the challenges faced by search and rescue teams. It uses real-world examples and case studies to illustrate key concepts and provides guidance for risk assessment, mitigation strategies, and equipment selection.

 
By combining scientific analysis with practical advice, Rapid Ice Formation offers actionable strategies for enhancing safety and operational effectiveness in freezing conditions, making it a valuable resource for professionals working or traveling in cold regions. The book progresses logically, first establishing the scientific principles behind rapid ice formation, then moving to practical implications for travel and rescue, and concluding with guidelines for risk assessment and mitigation. This approach ensures readers gain a comprehensive understanding of the dangers and how to navigate them.

    Before there was Steve Jobs, there was Norman Bel Geddes.  
    A ninth-grade dropout who found himself at the center of the worlds of industry, advertising, theater, and even gaming, Bel Geddes designed everything from the first all-weather stadium, to Manhattan’s most exclusive nightclub, to Futurama, the prescient 1939 exhibit that envisioned how America would look in the not-too-distant 1960s.  
    In The Man Who Designed the Future, B. A. Szerlip reveals precisely how central Bel Geddes was to the history of American innovation. He presided over a moment in which theater became immersive, function merged with form, and people became consumers. A polymath with humble Midwestern origins, Bel Geddes was a visionary whose career would launch him into social circles with the Algonquin roundtable members, stars of stage and screen, and titans of industry. 
    Light on its feet but absolutely authoritative, this first major biography of Norman Bel Geddes is a must for anyone who wants to know how America came to look the way it did.

    Preface by the Monk Coen. ”In this book, Pedro Costa makes an important analysis - an anamnesis of altered states of consciousness, and gives us guidelines, recipes, suggestions so that we can perceive our moods and develop the ability to deal with them. We will need patience a lot - in order to have physical, mental and social health. 
    We can identify the enemies of patience. Not only we can, but we should. Let us define them as the main causes of our daily unrest. First, the people. Second, time. Third, the situations. The fourth can be understood as the union of the first three: chaos, or ”people with no time in difficult situations”. Normally, when we lose patience completely we fall into this last stage of impatience. It`s this combination of factors that disturbs our peace. In this book, we describe a method so you always remember the ”good allies” of patience. A way to improve your life. It`s the ”4S” rule, a shortcut to memorizing it. Thus, the four allies of patience are: Silence, Sight, Smile and Sure. Easy, right? We`ll go into detail about this method and each of the four allies as well as the enemies of a complete change to a better life. We must also observe that the more we focus on the present, the more likely we are to find the allies of patience. The authors P. COSTA and G. COSTA bring a two-fold vision from different areas. First a broad approach of patience by medical science, linked to mindfulness, and on the other hand an approach by anthropology, closely related to the totality of the human being, including all of its dimensions.

    In Canopy of Titans, Paul Koberstein and Jessica Applegate examine the global importance of the Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest that stretches from Northern California to Alaska. Their urgent and authoritative account sets out the threats facing a vital environmental resource, and celebrates the beauty and complexity of one of the world's great forests. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on years of on-the-ground reporting, Koberstein and Applegate pull back the curtain on policies of governmental bodies that have seriously diminished the rainforest's capacity to store carbon, and uncover industry practices that have led to the destruction of swaths of a major ecological resource. Additionally, using an environmental justice perspective, Canopy of Titans shines a light on the Indigenous communities that have lived in the rainforest for millennia, and the impact forest policies have had on their lives.
