Sinopse

Bullet Dodging explores the surprising intersection of physics and psychology behind our ability to evade fast-moving threats. It examines how our brains and bodies work together to achieve feats of reaction, looking at both real-world scenarios and the exaggerated dodges seen in fiction. Did you know that understanding projectile motion—velocity, trajectory, and acceleration—is crucial for predicting where a threat will be? Or that cognitive biases can significantly impact your reaction time? This book uniquely bridges the gap between intuitive movement and the scientific realities governing it.

 
The book begins by laying out the fundamental physics of projectiles, including air resistance and gravity. It then delves into the psychological factors at play in threat detection, decision-making, and motor control, discussing how visual processing and cognitive biases affect our reflexes.

 
Finally, Bullet Dodging integrates these perspectives to analyze real-world cases, offering potential training methods while acknowledging the limitations of human physiology.

CLIMATE - How Wladimir Koppen...

Darcy Pattison

2026 Best STEM Book – NSTA/CBC 
2026 NSSTA Notable Social Studies Book 
“A visually evocative and mentally stimulating introduction to a climatologist.” Kirkus Reviews 
  
Before kids can understand climate change—first, they need to understand climate. 
  
As a teenager, Wladimir Köppen became interested how the landscape changed as he traveled south from St. Petersburg on the Baltic Sea in northern Russia to Crimea on the Black Sea. Explaining that changing landscape became his life’s work. 
  
In late 1800s, weather and climates were poorly understood. They needed someone to study it carefully over a long period of time. Köppen moved to Hamburg, Germany as head weatherman at the Deutsche Seewarte, the German Marine Observatory on the Baltic Sea. His job was to start one of the world’s first daily weather reports. He helped set up weather stations on the North Sea and train its staff. From around the world, he gathered other weather data. 
  
The World’s First Climate Map 
Slowly, that childhood problem of changing landscapes came into focus as he developed the world’s first climate map. They set out the five climate classifications Köppen identified (tropical, arid, temperate, continental, and polar). Köppen’s maps are still used today to help us understand the world’s ecosystems and plan for the future.
