Synopsis

Longest Tunnels explores the fascinating world of underground infrastructure, examining the engineering marvels that enable us to traverse mountains and seas. It delves into the technology, planning, and execution behind the world's most impressive tunnels, highlighting their vital role in connecting communities and driving global commerce. Did you know that modern tunnel boring machines (TBMs) have revolutionized tunnel construction, allowing for longer and more complex projects than ever before? The book emphasizes how these tunnels represent humanity's ability to overcome geographical barriers, facilitate trade, and reshape landscapes.

 
The book progresses by first introducing the principles of tunnel engineering, including geological surveying and risk management. It then moves through case studies of iconic tunnels like the Gotthard Base Tunnel, the Seikan Tunnel, and the Channel Tunnel, examining the unique challenges, innovative solutions, and lasting impact of each.

 
The study of tunnels connects to several fields, including geology, economics, and environmental science, providing insights into broader challenges of infrastructure development and sustainable engineering.

 
The book concludes with an analysis of future trends, new materials, and environmental considerations necessary for responsible development.

    Travelogues are boring, especially the ones about cycling. 
    My 30th birthday present to myself was to quit my job, set out from Seattle, and maybe cycle the world. BOOK RED begins this insane journey. When my bike started falling apart in the first two days, things weren’t looking so good. When pedaling 9 hours a day wasn’t supplying enough serotonin, things weren’t looking so good. An elated mind will smile at strangers; a diseased one will make games of passing bottles of urine, dead animals, and roadside crosses. 
    I die in the book, a few times. In fact, it's one of my favorite things to do while cycling. Though many have cycled to Mesa Verde, I detour into the Hopi’s Land of the Dead. Hallucinations of a former lover haunt at the most unsuspecting times: on a frisbee golf course, behind Germany’s Disneyland castle, and chasing rabbits at night. The songs and poems in the book hearken back to a time before the DSM, while ridiculous recipes don’t offer assurance I’m going to make it. 
    THIRTY has all the pieces of an adventure novel: how to fix things, unreal encounters, braving the unknown... yet seems to see everything the wrong way. The world it creates, the choices made, are at times absurd, but when you're in unfamiliar places and only talk to strangers, it all starts to makes sense.
