Sinopsis

Survival Science explores the scientific foundations of essential survival skills, revealing how understanding nature's principles is key to thriving in challenging environments. The book focuses on fire-making, food sourcing, and navigation, demonstrating that survival isn't just about instinct, but about applying scientific concepts.

 
Did you know that mastering fire-making involves understanding thermodynamics, or that navigating without a compass relies on keen observation of natural indicators like the stars and wind patterns?

 
The book uniquely deconstructs survival techniques into their fundamental scientific principles, explaining the "why" behind each technique, rather than simply providing instructions. Beginning with an introduction to core scientific concepts, the book progresses through chapters dedicated to fire, food, and navigation, examining both traditional and modern techniques.

 
Ultimately, Survival Science emphasizes adaptability and ethical considerations, connecting these skills to broader fields like environmental science and anthropology.

ChatGPT talks on science for...

Paulo Dario

This book follows a series of "conversations" with these tools, mainly with "chatGPT 4.0" but also with "Bard". It's well known that chatGPT is hampered in its research up to a certain point in time and, because they are language modeling tools, they end up inventing... a lot, especially in bibliographic references. However, accessory tools are emerging that make it possible to improve and even correct this situation, tools that will certainly become much more powerful in the future, but which are already a reality. So, using all these AI tools, a book has been created that aims to be a pedagogical tool that answers a series of questions that can be asked by secondary and higher education students, or even people who are just interested in these issues, but who don't have the access or predisposition to use these types of AI tools.

The Hidden Fires - A Cairngorms...

Merryn Glover

Shortlisted for the Boardman Tasker Award for Mountain Literature 
 
 
 
Elemental, fierce, and full of wonder, the Cairngorm mountains are the high and rocky heart of Scotland. To know them would take forever, to love them demands a kind of courageous surrender. 
 
 
 
In The Hidden Fires, Merryn Glover undertakes that challenge with Nan Shepherd as companion and guiding light. Following in the footsteps and contours of The Living Mountain, she explores the same landscapes and themes as Shepherd's seminal work. This is a journey separated by time but unified by space and purpose, a conversation between two women across nearly a century that explores how entering the life of a mountain can illuminate our own. 
 
 
 
An Australian who grew up in the Himalayas, her early experiences of the Scottish hills and weather left her cold. But gradually acclimatizing and with an approach like Shepherd's, that is more mountain wandering than mountaineering, she discovers the spark that sets the hills and herself on fire. Through Glover's deepening encounter, the wild majesty and iridescence of the Cairngorms is revealed in this beautiful evocation of landscape, place, and identity.
