  Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) have transformed the way we interact with digital environments, offering immersive experiences that blend the real and virtual worlds. While both technologies enhance perception, they do so in fundamentally different ways. AR overlays digital elements onto the real world, enriching reality with interactive, computer-generated enhancements. VR, on the other hand, creates fully immersive digital environments, transporting users into a completely virtual space where physical surroundings disappear. 
  The evolution of AR and VR has been a fascinating journey, driven by advancements in computing power, graphics rendering, and sensor technology. Early experiments in virtual reality can be traced back to the 1960s, with devices like the Sensorama and the first head-mounted displays. However, it wasn’t until the 2010s that VR technology became widely accessible, thanks to companies like Oculus, HTC, and Sony. AR’s development followed a different trajectory, gaining mainstream attention with mobile applications like Pokémon GO and smart glasses designed for enterprise use. 
  One of the key distinctions between AR and VR is their method of user interaction. AR enhances real-world experiences without replacing them, allowing users to see both physical and digital elements simultaneously. This has led to widespread adoption in fields such as retail, education, and healthcare. VR, in contrast, immerses users in entirely synthetic environments, making it ideal for gaming, training simulations, and remote collaboration. The level of immersion is influenced by factors such as display resolution, field of view, motion tracking, and haptic feedback, all of which contribute to a sense of presence within a virtual space.

  The Tombstone of Early Ohio   Southeast Ohio's Little Cities of Black Diamonds was a rugged region in the 1800s. Nowhere was this truer than in Corning and Rendville, mining towns reminiscent of the Wild West era. Gun duels, scandals, lynchings, and murders plagued these places, as intrepid European immigrants and tenacious Black miners relied on raw grit to survive rowdy saloons and perilous coal mines. These impoverished workers also took bold stands against affluent mine operators, leading to intense clashes with the Ohio National Guard./ Author and former Green Beret Jobie Siemer reveals stories of formidable union conflicts and the unyielding resilience of miners whose faith was a beacon in a chaotic struggle to restore order to Sunday Creek./

  Cars are killing people and making the planet uninhabitable. Crashes take the lives of more than a million people each year. Air pollution linked to motor vehicles contributes to even more untimely deaths. Highways and unsafe streets have devastated cities, yet traffic congestion still swallows up countless hours. And carbon emissions from transportation are a key driver of climate change, which threatens to make the world unlivable. Why do we still worship at the altar of the car? How can we find alternatives that are healthier for the planet and ourselves? 
    
  This book exposes how "Big Car"—the complex of companies in the automobile, oil, insurance, media, and concrete industries that promote and entrench car dependence—has pursued profit at the expense of the common good. David Obst explores how Big Car gained almost immeasurable influence over our lives, weighing the benefits and the costs of reliance on private automobiles. He details how industry covered up the harms of lead additives, fought against seatbelts, and continues to fund climate-change denialism. Obst considers the future of mobility, surveying how cities are experimenting with forms of transportation that offer alternatives to the dominance of cars. Provocative and comprehensive, Saving Ourselves from Big Car is a wake-up call for us to change how we use cars before it's too late.
