Synopsis

Bloop Sound Source explores the mystery behind the ultra-low frequency underwater sound detected by NOAA in 1997. By combining acoustic analysis with insights from marine biology and glaciology, the book suggests the Bloop may have originated from a massive icequake – the breakage of Antarctic ice shelves. This interdisciplinary approach highlights how seemingly isolated sounds can reveal significant geophysical events.

 
The book progresses logically, first introducing the Bloop's discovery and characteristics. It then delves into underwater acoustics, potential biological sources, and glaciological processes, carefully explaining the science without overwhelming the reader. One intriguing fact explored is how sound travels in the ocean and how hydrophones capture these noises. By correlating the Bloop's timing and location with ice-shelf activity and seismic data, the book builds a compelling case for its glaciological origins, emphasizing the role of ice shelves in our climate system.

 
Ultimately, Bloop Sound Source demonstrates how acoustic monitoring in polar environments can help us understand the impacts of climate change. This unique study not only solves a scientific puzzle but also underscores the importance of protecting our planet's fragile polar regions.

    Classical mechanics is the foundation of physics, describing the motion of objects under the influence of forces. It is based on Newtonian principles and provides the groundwork for various fields such as engineering, astronomy, and applied sciences. This chapter introduces the fundamental concepts, historical context, and different approaches to classical mechanics. 
    Classical mechanics originated with the pioneering work of Galileo Galilei and Sir Isaac Newton. Galileo’s studies of motion laid the foundation for Newton’s laws, which were later formalized in Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (1687). These laws revolutionized the understanding of motion and force, enabling precise predictions of mechanical systems. Before Newton, the Aristotelian view dominated, which incorrectly stated that objects require a continuous force to remain in motion. Newton’s insights replaced this with the concept of inertia, fundamentally changing physics. 
    At its core, classical mechanics describes the relationship between forces, motion, and energy. It assumes that time and space are absolute and independent entities. Unlike quantum mechanics and relativity, which describe extreme conditions, classical mechanics applies to everyday objects moving at speeds much lower than the speed of light. The field is traditionally divided into several branches, including kinematics, which studies motion without considering forces, and dynamics, which examines forces and their effects.

    What if neurodiverse individuals, including those dealing with autism, could find an integrated approach — in one place — that actually worked? What if they didn’t have to embark on a costly Diagnosis Odyssey, only to end up frustrated and no closer to a solution than when they started?  Pediatric neurologist Mark Mintz, MD will show you that it doesn’t have to be this way — because he has found a new path that has been transforming health care and producing better outcomes for his patients.  Wrong and inefficient treatment, over-reliance of medications, Byzantine healthcare bureaucracies and antiquated reimbursement systems disconnected from the actual value of care are affecting outcomes. Dr. Mintz will show you the problems with the system, some of which you know about, some of which may surprise you. He will take you to the bottom line and prove why cheaper doesn’t mean less expensive, and show you how a multi-disciplinary approach, inviting many perspectives to each case, actually streamline care and serves patients better. Working with the vast knowledge of his team consisting of professionals who specialize in both the medical and behavior side of diagnosis and treatment, he will show you how they were able to create an integrated system, stop the Diagnosis Odyssey in its tracks and bring real help to children, adults and their families.  Join Dr. Mintz on this journey through the healthcare “system” and meet the patients it has ill-served , only to be rescued by him and his team of caregivers. His head-and-heart approach will leave parents of children with autism and other neurological conditions realizing that, no matter their previous experiences, there is still hope.

    For years, executive Martin Fiore has been advising leaders from a wide range of industries about technological trends that are reshaping the world of business, from artificial intelligence and the rise of autonomous systems to human/machine convergence. Now, in Humanity Reimagined, Fiore explores how these trends are disrupting industries, changing the world of work, transforming the economy, and creating both threats and opportunities for leaders at all levels, from entrepreneurs nurturing start-up businesses to C-suite leaders at the world’s biggest corporations.  
    Fiore’s main focus is on what we can do to ensure that the forces of change now sweeping the planet will protect and enhance the most cherished qualities of human life rather than undermining them. He offers thoughtful recommendations for addressing many of the big issues that today’s transformational technologies are raising, from the threats to privacy posed by misuse of big data to the infiltration of autonomous systems by racial and gender bias. Most important, Fiore provides advice on how to prepare for an unpredictable future that business leaders, policy makers, and individuals forging their careers will find both practical and inspiring.  
    “Fiore combines perceptive forecasting of change with an understanding of how the world and public already has shifted, making a compelling case that making the best of the future demands improving upon the leadership of the past.”—BookLife Reviews 
    “For those looking for a glimpse at the future, this book isn’t a bad place to start. An encouraging, unflinching look at the tech changes to come.”—Kirkus Reviews

    An engineering professor reveals how math and reasoning apply in the real world with a “fascinating” collection of problems and puzzles (Library Journal). 
     
    A Choice Outstanding Academic Title of the Year 
     
    Although we seldom think of it, our lives are played out in a world of numbers. Such common activities as throwing baseballs, skipping rope, growing flowers, playing football, measuring savings accounts, and many others are inherently mathematical. So are more speculative problems that are simply fun to ponder in themselves—such as the best way to score Olympic events. 
     
    Here Robert Banks presents a wide range of musings, both practical and entertaining, that have intrigued him and others: How tall can one grow? Why do we get stuck in traffic? Which football player would have a better chance of breaking away—a small, speedy wide receiver or a huge, slow linebacker? Can California water shortages be alleviated by towing icebergs from Antarctica? What is the fastest the 100-meter dash will ever be run? 
     
    The book’s twenty-four concise chapters, each centered on a real-world phenomenon, show how math and simple reasoning together may produce elegant models that explain everything from the federal debt to the proper technique for ski-jumping.
