Sinopse

In "The Problem of Increasing Human Energy with Special References to the Harnessing of the Sun's Energy," Nikola Tesla presents a bold manifesto on the potential of renewable energy paradigms. Written in the early 20th century, the book weaves together Tesla's fervent beliefs in the power of innovation and sustainability, interlacing scientific philosophy with a visionary perspective on energy consumption. Employing a lucid yet compelling prose style, Tesla argues for the urgent need to explore solar energy as a cornerstone for future human advancement, showcasing his deep understanding of physics and the mechanics of energy conversion amidst the burgeoning industrial age. Nikola Tesla, a Serbian-American inventor and electrical engineer, is celebrated not only for his pivotal contributions to the development of alternating current but also for his persistent advocacy for sustainable energy solutions. His personal experiences with the limitations of fossil fuels and a deep connection to harnessing the forces of nature propelled him to explore solar energy's untapped potential, as depicted in this seminal work. Tesla's visionary outlook is grounded in his scientific acumen and a profound belief in humanity's ability to transcend current limitations through ingenuity. This book is a must-read for those interested in the intersection of science, technology, and sustainability. Tesla's insights are remarkably prescient, addressing many concerns that resonate today, making it an essential text for environmental scholars, energy policy advocates, and anyone passionate about the future of renewable energy.

    From the euphoria of the gridiron, to the depths of stress, isolation and depression - and back again. 
     
    For as long as he can remember, BJ Daniels ate, slept and breathed football. He became a star quarterback at the University of South Florida and went on to play professionally in the NFL, winning the Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks in 2013. 
     
    In many ways, it seemed like BJ was living every athlete's dream. However, he also saw first-hand the lows that accompany being a football player at the highest level. The mental health struggles both he and his teammates faced – often in silence – have inspired a new passion and purpose in him: to share his story, from setbacks to success, and encourage others to face their wellbeing head-on. 
     
    Here, with raw vulnerability, through his own lived experience, BJ explores the importance of resilience, mindset, dedication, passion and perseverance – all of which can help you to rise above your circumstances. 
     
    This audiobook embodies BJ’s mission to "Leave No One Behind", and shows us that, beyond all our obstacles, there’s a life worth living.

    This book contains these titles: 
    - The Rise of Social Media: The rise of social media has reshaped the way people connect, communicate, and consume information. Over the past two decades, digital platforms have evolved from niche online communities to global networks that influence nearly every aspect of modern life. Social media is no longer just a tool for staying in touch with friends and family—it has become a powerful force in politics, business, entertainment, and culture. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, understanding the impact of these platforms is essential.  
    - The Rise of Remote Work: The COVID-19 pandemic marked a turning point in how the world approaches work. Overnight, offices across the globe emptied as organizations scrambled to adapt to a new reality: remote work. What began as an emergency measure to ensure continuity during a global crisis evolved into a massive experiment that reshaped traditional workplace norms. For many, the home became an office, kitchen tables transformed into desks, and digital platforms like Zoom and Microsoft Teams replaced conference rooms.  
    - The Fall of the Berlin Wall: The Berlin Wall stands as one of the most defining symbols of the Cold War, a stark reminder of the ideological divide that shaped global politics in the second half of the 20th century. For nearly three decades, it separated families, friends, and a nation, embodying the tension between the communist East and the capitalist West. Its fall on November 9, 1989, marked the beginning of the end of the Cold War and set the stage for German reunification, forever altering the political landscape of Europe and the world.

    Obesity is becoming one of the preeminent public health concerns, with prevalence increasing throughout the world.
    Covering many aspects of contemporary obesity research, this timely book by some of the leading experts in the field explores issues relating to the biology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of obesity, including childhood obesity. The work is attuned to the needs of those living with obesity, with a chapter devoted to
    the harm caused by weight stigma and false narratives around lifestyle choices.
    'Obesity, the other pandemic of the 21st century' reviews the available evidence to prove that obesity should be considered not just as a key contributor towards other comorbidities, but as a disease by itself. Importantly, the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on obesity is addressed, which raised the complexity and severity of the obesity and should be a call to action for the prevention and early treatment of this disease. This book has been developed by World Obesity Federation collaborators, and is aimed at healthcare practitioners, academics, policymakers, students, patients living with obesity and all those impacted by the issue.
    The research covered in these pages goes some way towards proving that obesity is quickly becoming 'the other pandemic' of the 21st century. Much like any major pandemic, the consequence of inaction is truly alarming.
