Sinossi

Lava Field Burns explores the often-underestimated dangers present in volcanic zones, focusing on extreme heat and ground instability. It highlights how seemingly safe areas can conceal scalding temperatures and unstable terrain, posing significant risks to travelers and researchers.

 
Did you know that geothermal areas can maintain subsurface temperatures high enough to cause severe burns, even when the surface appears solid? Or that seemingly stable lava formations can unexpectedly collapse? This book uniquely combines scientific insights with practical advice, drawing on earth science and geography to examine case studies from volcanic regions worldwide. It meticulously progresses, first by introducing fundamental concepts of heat transfer and ground stability, then breaking down geothermal activity and geological hazards, and finally discussing risk assessment and mitigation strategies.

 
By analyzing historical accounts, scientific research, and thermal imaging data, Lava Field Burns equips its audience with the knowledge needed to minimize risks and ensure safer exploration. It aims to foster a deeper understanding of volcanic hazards, promoting informed decision-making and better safety protocols for anyone venturing into these dynamic landscapes.

    The Titanic. The Britannic. The Olympic. They are some of the most famous ships in history, but for the wrong reasons. 
     
     
     
    The Olympic Class liners were conceived as the largest, grandest ships ever to set sail. Of the three ships built, the first only lost the record for being the largest because she was beaten by the second, and they were both beaten by the third. The class was meant to secure the White Star Line's reputation as the greatest shipping company on earth. Instead, with the loss of both the Titanic and the Britannic in their first year of service, it guaranteed White Star's infamy. 
     
     
     
    This unique book tells the extraordinary story of these three extraordinary ships from the bottom up, starting with their conception and construction (and later their modification) and following their very different careers. Behind the technical details of these magnificent ships lies a tragic human story—not just of the lives lost aboard the Titanic and Britannic, but of the designers pushing the limits beyond what was actually possible, engineers unable to prepare for every twist of fate, and ship owners and crew who truly believed a ship could be unsinkable.

    1.8 million people are directly affected by psychiatry in France. 350,000 are in hospital. For every 1,000 inhabitants, there is one compulsory hospitalization. Yet this system, which generates social exclusion and stigmatization, dominates. Admitted at the age of 16, Christelle Rosar was hospitalized for twenty years. They tied her down, injected her with drugs, and kept her in a vegetative state. She saw patients who remained in hospital from adolescence until their death, and others who gradually suffered the side effects of the treatments. Now free, she tells us about her struggles to regain her independence and her place in society, and denounces the abuses and failings of the French psychiatric system, which is particularly violent.

    How different from animals are we really? 
     
     
     
    Are humans the only creatures who love, laugh, cry, possess morals, and wage war? In The Beast Within, scientific researcher and ethologist Jessica Serra upends the assumptions that underpin our very human hypothesis that we possess a superior place in the hierarchy of organisms on Earth. How did we come to think of our animality as standing in opposition to our humanity—and does this reasoning have a scientific basis? 
     
     
     
    Through the fascinating discoveries made by ethologists, anthropologists, and archeologists, Serra deciphers our behaviors in light of their animal roots and demystifies ideas about how different animals are from humans. She compares human behaviors with those exhibited by other species in chapters spanning topics as varied as sex, morality, emotions, intelligence, and family. Exploring the evolution of various animal species, as well as the evolution of historical ideas about humanity and animality, Serra theorizes that human behaviors and motivations may hold more in common with those of animals than we think. These explorations of scientific findings encourage us to reconsider how much we have truly removed ourselves from "the beast within."
