Summary

Ocean Waves explores the science behind ocean waves, tides, and currents, revealing their interconnectedness and impact on our planet. It emphasizes the importance of understanding ocean dynamics for coastal management, navigation safety, and predicting coastal hazards. For instance, the book examines how wind energy transfers to the water's surface to generate waves, and how the gravitational forces of the moon and sun influence tides.

 
This book traces the evolution of our understanding of wave mechanics, from early observations to modern mathematical models. It investigates phenomena like wave interference, rogue waves, and tsunami generation. Ocean Waves also connects to other fields such as meteorology and geology, enriching our perspective and underscoring the importance of a holistic approach to ocean studies.

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with basic wave formation principles, then moves on to the science of tides, the origins of extreme waves, and, finally, the practical implications of wave science. Supported by oceanographic survey data and historical records, it offers an integrated perspective of the latest research alongside established theories, making it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in Earth science and the dynamic nature of our oceans.

Quack Quack - The Threat of...

Joe Schwarcz

Let the one and only Dr. Joe battle pseudoscience and cast a life preserver out to all those drowning in a sea of misinformation
		 
“Ultimately, the author successfully demonstrates how claims should be queried and analyzed before they are accepted.” — Library Journal
		 
We are in a crisis. A tsunami of misinformation and disinformation is threatening to engulf evidence-based science. While quackery — loosely defined as the spread of false “knowledge,” often accompanied by various versions of “snake oil” — is not a novel phenomenon, it has never posed as great a threat to public health as today. COVID-19 has unleashed an unprecedented flurry of destructive information that has fueled vaccine hesitancy and has steered people toward unproven therapies. Conspiracy theorists have served up a distasteful menu of twisted facts that create distrust in science. 
		 
In Quack Quack, Dr. Joe Schwarcz, who has been battling flimflam for decades, focuses on the deluge of anecdotes, cherry-picked data, pseudoscientific nonsense, and seductive baseless health claims that undermine efforts to educate the public about evidence-based science. The wide scope of the topics drawn from past and present aims to cast a life preserver to people drowning in a sea of misinformation.
