Sinopse

Supernova Energy Release explores the immense power and significance of stellar explosions, known as supernovae, in shaping the cosmos. It details how these events, whether core-collapse supernovae from massive stars or thermonuclear supernovae from white dwarfs, are pivotal in the creation and distribution of heavy elements. One intriguing fact is that the heavy elements that constitute our planet and even our bodies were forged in the intense heat and pressure of dying stars and scattered across the universe by these very explosions.

 
The book uniquely integrates observational data with cutting-edge theoretical models, offering a multi-faceted perspective on supernova physics and astrophysics. It progresses by first introducing fundamental concepts of stellar structure and evolution, then delving into the specifics of core-collapse and thermonuclear supernovae, and finally exploring the observable consequences, such as supernova remnants and their impact on galactic chemical evolution.

 
Readers will gain insights into the electromagnetism and the role of supernovae in cosmic evolution, learning how they influence the formation of new stars and planetary systems. This comprehensive study also touches on the ongoing debates within the astrophysics community, such as the mechanisms behind supernova explosions and the role of Type Ia supernovae in understanding dark energy. By presenting various viewpoints and the latest research, Supernova Energy Release equips readers with a thorough understanding of these dynamic and crucial cosmic phenomena.

H sapiens: The Last 12000 Years

Fil Munas

A COSMIC CONUNDRUM—This astonishing book follows our ascendancy from just another hominin on the open African savannah to the alpha hegemon on Earth today endangering its entire future. Along the way, humans methodically outwitted their competition with phenomenal efficiency and indifference, to emerge in the modern 21st century as the linchpin of a major mass extinction of countless other lifeforms cohabiting their planet with them. The shredding of our fragile ecosphere by massive proliferation and monopolistic overconsumption of Earth’s precious resources by a single invasive species, along with the inexorable combustion of deadly fossil fuels to acquire the energy needed to sustain their profligate and lavish lifestyle, is threatening to drive H. sapiens itself into extinction within the next 300 years. This is the true story of that improbable adventure!

Dream States - Smart Cities...

John Lorinc

WINNER OF THE 2022 WRITERS’ TRUST BALSILLIE PRIZE FOR PUBLIC POLICY
		 
Is the ‘smart city’ the utopia we’ve been waiting for?
		 
The promise of the so-called smart city has been at the forefront of urban planning and development since the early 2010s, and the tech industry that supplies smart city software and hardware is now worth hundreds of billions a year.
		 
But the ideas and approaches underpinning smart city tech raise tough and important questions about the future of urban communities, surveillance, automation, and public participation. The smart city era, moreover, belongs firmly in a longer historical narrative about cities — one defined by utopian ideologies, architectural visions, and technological fantasies.
		 
Smart streetlights, water and air quality tracking, autonomous vehicles: with examples from all over the world, including New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Portland, and Chicago, Dream States unpacks the world of smart city tech, but also situates this important shift in city-building into a broader story about why we still dream about perfect places.
		 
“John Lorinc’s incisive analysis in Dream States reminds us that the search for urban utopia is not new. Throughout the book, Lorinc underscores the fact that a gamut of urban innovations – from smart city megaprojects to e-government to pandemic preparedness tools – only provide promise when scrutinized together with the political, economic, social, and physical complexities of urban life.” – Shauna Brail, University of Toronto
		 
“Dream States: Smart Cities, Technology, and the Pursuit of Urban Utopias takes us on a fascinating journey across world cities to show how technology has shaped them in the past and how smart city technology will reshape them in the future. This book is essential reading for policy makers, researchers, and practitioners interested in understanding the opportunities and challenges of smart city technology and what it means for city building.” – Enid Slack, University of Toronto School of Cities
		 
“Utopia may be the oldest grift in the city-building business, but Dream States shows that technology is a timeless tool for turning the most ordinary of urban dreams – clean air and water, safe streets, and decent homes – into reality. As digital dilettantes try to sell us on a software overhaul, John Lorinc provides us an indispensable and flawless guide to the must-haves and never-agains of the smart city.” – Anthony Townsend, Urbanist in Residence, Cornell Tech, author of Smart Cities
