Summary

"Underground Flood Timing" delves into the critical subject of cave floods, offering insights into how these sudden and dangerous events can be predicted and managed. The book examines the hydrological processes that feed cave systems, the geological factors that influence water flow within karst landscapes, and the practical methods used for predicting floods in these unique environments. One intriguing fact is how rainfall infiltration rates combined with an understanding of karst geology are key to predicting these events. Another key insight is the shift from generalized hydrological models to site-specific assessments, recognizing the unique nature of each cave. The book takes a practical, problem-solving approach, providing cavers, scientists, and risk managers with the knowledge to assess flood risks. It starts with fundamental concepts of cave hydrology and karst geology, then examines factors influencing flood timing, such as rainfall intensity and underground drainage pathways, using case studies. Finally, it integrates these elements into a comprehensive flood prediction and mitigation strategy, offering techniques from simple gauges to advanced modeling software. This comprehensive approach makes it a valuable resource for anyone involved in cave exploration or management.

Forgiving Humanity - How the...

Peter Russell

Why has the most innovative of species become so dangerous? The answer, suggests Peter Russell, lies in humanity’s accelerating pace of development. He shows how innovation breeds further innovation—a positive feedback loop leading to exponential rates of change. But our minds cannot grasp the full implications of exponential growth. We think more in terms of linear change, leading to a blind spot on the future.
However fast the pace of change may be today, it will be even faster in the years to come, bringing ever more rapid scientific and technological advances. But ever-accelerating change also creates stress on the systems involved. The faster the change, the greater the stress, and the more likely systemic breakdown. We are heading into a future with technology beyond our dreams, but in a world that is breaking at the seams.
Russell argues there is no blame for this. Spiraling rates of development, with all their consequences, positive and negative, are the inevitable fate of any intelligent, technologically-empowered species.
How do we live with such unsettling conclusions? How can we prepare for a world that is becoming increasingly unpredictable? What does it mean for the future of humanity?
Peter Russell, the widely acclaimed author of The Global Brain and other pioneering works, earned an honors degree in theoretical physics and psychology —as well as a masters degree in computer science —at the University of Cambridge. He subsequently went to India where he explored meditation and Eastern philosophy, and was one of the first people to introduce personal development programs to corporations in the 1970s. His other books include The TM Technique, The Upanishads, Waking Up in Time, From Science to God, and Letting Go of Nothing.

Dividing Lines - How...

Deborah N. Archer

Our nation's transportation system is crumbling. But as acclaimed scholar and ACLU president Deborah Archer warns in Dividing Lines, before we can think about rebuilding and repairing, we must consider the role race has played in transportation infrastructure, from the early twentieth century and into the present day. 
 
 
 
As Archer demonstrates, the success of the Civil Rights movement and the fall of Jim Crow in the 1960s did not mean the end of segregation. With state-sanctioned racism no longer legal, officials across the country turned to transportation infrastructure to keep Americans divided. A wealthy white neighborhood could no longer be "protected" by racial covenants and segregated shops, but a multilane road, with no pedestrian crossings, could be built along its border to make it difficult for people from a lower-income community to visit. Highways could not be routed through Black neighborhoods based on the race of their residents, but those neighborhoods' lower property values—a legacy of racial exclusion—could justify their destruction. 
 
 
 
Drawing on a wealth of sources, including interviews with people who now live in the shadow of highways and other major infrastructure projects, Archer presents a sweeping, national account—from Atlanta and Houston to Indianapolis and New York City—of our persistent divisions.
