  Fernhurst Books' compact, handy guides to navigating at sea, nautical calculations and passage planning bundled together in e-book form for the first time. The perfect quick reference guides to keep on your phone or tablet, easily accessible when you are on board. They contain all the essential information for when you need it most about navigating and passage planning. The Navigation Companion covers all the navigation essentials: charts, compass, tides, standard and secondary ports, dead reckoning, estimated position, course to steer, lights, GPS, waypoints and buoyage in a highly illustrated format making it easy to understand at a glance – ideal for those moments when you need an answer, and you need it fast! The Nautical Calculation Companion is an aide memoire of those calculations frequently needed (but often forgotten) for traditional coastal and offshore navigation and other equations and formulae which can be useful afloat. Each topic has worked examples, and there are frequent diagrams to illustrate the process. The Passage Planning Companion details the timetable for developing a passage plan and goes through all the elements you should consider: port information, routeing, weather, tides, timings and safety. It then takes you through ship management on the passage: the crew briefing, roles, routines, pre-sail checks, watch keeping and much more. This will be a valued companion when planning and executing a sea voyage.

  The Scariest Planets We've Ever...

  The universe is filled with wonders, but some of its most fascinating worlds are also the most terrifying. While Earth offers stability, warmth, and an atmosphere that sustains life, countless exoplanets lie scattered across the galaxy with conditions that defy imagination. These distant worlds are not just inhospitable—they are the stuff of nightmares.  
    
  The discovery of these hostile planets has revealed just how extreme nature can be. Some are scorched by relentless heat, while others are locked in frozen desolation. Toxic gases, deadly storms, and crushing gravity make these worlds far more menacing than anything we might encounter on Earth. Exploring these terrifying planets is not just about uncovering their horrors; it’s about understanding the universe itself.  
    
  One key factor that determines a planet’s hostility is its proximity to its star. Planets that orbit too close are often scorched by intense radiation, while those too far away freeze in endless darkness. But even planets in stable orbits can become dangerous if their atmospheres are packed with poisonous chemicals or if they experience violent weather patterns. Some worlds are plagued by hurricane-force winds that rip across the surface, while others endure storms of molten glass that shred everything in their path.

  Relationship Equity - Your...

  “Humanity is the core of our business.” — Richard Walker 
   
  As the CEO of a prominent IT consulting firm, York Solutions, Richard Walker has applied the principle of Relationship Equity to achieve tremendous business success as he builds the tech talent pool and helps professionals develop their careers. Walker describes Relationship Equity as the good faith you can build by investing in relationships faithfully and steadily, with no expectation of reaping a return. 
   
  In his new book, Relationship Equity: Your Cornerstone Investment to Great Gains in Business and Life, Walker takes his readers on a journey of discovery, examining a principle with the power to revolutionize both business and personal lives. 
   
  He explains that the relationships we forge with others are of supreme importance—and when you get those right, the rest will follow. 
   
  “If you are a friend who is genuine,” he writes, “you will have genuine friends—and lo and behold— they will want to help you just as you have helped them.” 
   
  Sounds simple? It’s not. 
   
  Relationship Equity has many nuances, and Walker explores them all in Relationship Equity. To share the story of how he developed the philosophy, he escorts his readers back to the small-town world of his youth in northern England, then onward to his corporate life at the helm of a thriving American tech company. 
   
  “In our families, our businesses, our communities, our world—we need one another,” Walker writes. “We are not islands unto ourselves.” 
   
  In his new book, Walker teaches us what he and his company are doing today to pay forward the many acts of kindness that have come his way through the years. Richard Walker has made it his business to change lives for the better, and his business reflects that.
