Sinossi

Hydropower Essentials explores the multifaceted world of hydropower, a critical renewable energy source that balances sustainable development with environmental considerations. The book delves into the engineering aspects of dams and turbines and examines hydropower's role in the global energy landscape. While hydropower offers a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels, the text emphasizes the need for a comprehensive understanding of its environmental consequences, such as reservoir emissions, which can contribute to greenhouse gases, and the effects on aquatic ecosystems.

 
The book systematically progresses from the basic principles of hydropower, including the conversion of potential and kinetic energy, to a detailed examination of various hydropower technologies like pumped storage and run-of-river systems. It uniquely integrates environmental impact assessments with technological overviews, addressing controversies like community displacement and ecosystem alteration head-on.

 
By exploring emerging trends such as small-scale hydropower and advanced turbine designs, Hydropower Essentials provides a balanced view of hydropower's present and future, making it valuable for anyone interested in sustainable energy solutions.

    The award-winning journalist Lisa Margonelli, national bestselling author of Oil on the Brain: Petroleum's Long, Strange Trip to Your Tank, investigates the environmental and economic impact termites inflict on human societies in this fascinating examination of one of nature's most misunderstood insects. Are we more like termites than we ever imagined? In Underbug, the award-winning journalist Lisa Margonelli introduces us to the enigmatic creatures that collectively outweigh human beings ten to one and consume $40 billion worth of valuable stuff annually?and yet, in Margonelli's telling, seem weirdly familiar. Over the course of a decade-long obsession with the little bugs, Margonelli pokes around termite mounds and high-tech research facilities, closely watching biologists, roboticists, and geneticists. Her globe-trotting journey veers into uncharted territory, from evolutionary theory to Edwardian science literature to the military industrial complex. What begins as a natural history of the termite becomes a personal exploration of the unnatural future we're building, with darker observations on power, technology, historical trauma, and the limits of human cognition. Whether in Namibia or Cambridge, Arizona or Australia, Margonelli turns up astounding facts and raises provocative questions. Is a termite an individual or a unit of a superorganism? Can we harness the termite's properties to change the world? If we build termite-like swarming robots, will they inevitably destroy us? Is it possible to think without having a mind? Underbug burrows into these questions and many others?unearthing disquieting answers about the world's most underrated insect and what it means to be human.

    In the summer of 2022, Lee Berger lost 50 pounds in order to wriggle though impossibly small openings in the Rising Star cave complex in South Africa—spaces where his team has been unearthing the remains of Homo naledi, a proto-human likely to have coexisted with Homo sapiens some 250,000 years ago. The lead researcher on the site, still Berger had never made his way into the dark, cramped, dangerous underground spaces where many of the naledi fossils had been found. Now he was ready to do so. Once inside the cave, Berger made shocking new discoveries that expand our understanding of this early hominid—discoveries that stand to alter our fundamental understanding of what makes us human. So what does it all mean? Join Berger on the adventure of a lifetime as he explores the Rising Star cave system and begins the complicated process of explaining these extraordinary finds—finds that force a rethinking of human evolution, and discoveries that Berger calls "the Rosetta stone of the human mind."
