Sinopse

Fan Cools Air explores the surprisingly significant history and science behind the humble hand fan, revealing its enduring role in personal cooling across millennia. Far from being a simple object, the book argues that the hand fan represents an elegant, energy-efficient solution for climate control, dating back to ancient civilizations like Egypt and China, where fans held cultural and religious importance. The book uniquely bridges historical context with scientific analysis, enhanced with computational fluid dynamics simulations, to quantify the cooling effect.

 
The book begins by explaining the physics of evaporative cooling and convection, then transitions into a historical survey, charting the evolution of fan design and materials from simple palm leaves to intricate silk creations. Case studies illustrate how artisans adapted designs to optimize airflow, influenced by cultural exchange and trade. One intriguing insight is how fan designs from different eras reflect a deep understanding of thermodynamics and fluid dynamics, principles that are still relevant today.

 
In its concluding chapters, Fan Cools Air presents a scientific analysis of fan performance, using experimental data to support their utility. The book adopts a narrative non-fiction style, blending accessible scientific explanations with engaging historical anecdotes. It progresses from foundational physics to historical significance, then to modern applications and future potential, offering a comprehensive understanding of this often-overlooked technology and its potential for sustainable cooling.

    Ripple: An Intimate Exchange of Urgency and Hope Between An Ecologist and His Daughter is a narrative of letters written by an ecologist dad to his daughter upon her coming-of-age. Drawing upon his personal history, family anecdotes, and shared memories, Powers envisions a path for humanity's reintegration with nature, and a chance to save the life force that runs through all of us. A story of separation has long gripped the human race: that people are separate—with more advanced habitats, technologies, and values—from our natural surroundings and fellow creatures. We have been told this story for generations. But as Powers watches his daughter approach adulthood, with all of society's expectations, he knows that the story we pass down has to change. In Ripple, he tells a different tale, one of community and family, inner wisdom, and shared existence within a living planet.

    The concept of canine consent is far more than simply a buzzword in modern dog training practices. In its current form, consent is a distinctly human concept, designed by humans and for humans. Looking beyond species boundaries can help us not only consider concepts of canine consent and autonomy, but it can also help us to apply these concepts in our everyday interactions with dogs, which is fundamental for any professional working with dogs as well as for everyday dog caregivers. This canine-indexed definition of consent includes a model of five major categories: Touch/interaction-based consent, cooperative care using learned consent behaviors, activity consent, consent-based learning, and substitutive consent. These categories involve a two-way communication system, integration of salient choices, teaching consent behaviors and incorporating existing training protocols that adhere to the Humane Hierarchy of best practices, and an evaluation of dependent decision-making in extenuating circumstances. This book aims to merge the existing literature and new understandings about canine consent to paint a complete picture. It will challenge the current expectations of dogs and dog behavior in our society with an intention of considering their perspectives, experiences, and emotional needs.
