Synopsis

"Wind Steals Heat" explores the science behind why the wind makes cold days feel even colder, delving into the physics of wind chill. It explains how moving air accelerates heat loss from our bodies, a crucial understanding for safety, weather forecasting, and climate modeling. Did you know that wind chill isn't just a feeling? It's a measurable rate of heat loss that directly impacts our physiology. The book uniquely combines scientific analysis with practical insights, bridging the gap between physics and health.

 
The book begins with the basic principles of heat transfer, like convection, conduction, and radiation, explaining how our bodies regulate temperature. It progresses by detailing weather experiments used to measure wind chill factors, offering insights into the methodologies and data collected. "Wind Steals Heat" further examines the practical implications, such as the risks of hypothermia and frostbite, and how wind chill data is used in weather forecasting and climate studies.

    Triumphs and disasters in the deep sea 
    This is a journey through time and water, to the bottom of the ocean and the future of our planet. 
    We do not see the ocean when we look at the water that blankets more than two thirds of our planet. We only see the entrance to it. Beyond that entrance is a world hostile to humans, yet critical to our survival. The first divers to enter that world held their breath and splashed beneath the surface, often clutching rocks to pull them down. Over centuries, they invented wooden diving bells, clumsy diving suits, and unwieldy contraptions in attempts to go deeper and stay longer. But each advance was fraught with danger, as the intruders had to survive the crushing weight of water, or the deadly physiological effects of breathing compressed air. The vertical odyssey continued when explorers squeezed into heavy steel balls dangling on cables, or slung beneath floats filled with flammable gasoline. Plunging into the narrow trenches between the tectonic plates of the Earth’s crust, they eventually reached the bottom of the ocean in the same decade that men first walked on the moon. 
    Today, as nations scramble to exploit the resources of the ocean floor, The Frontier Below recalls a story of human endeavour that took 2,000 years to travel seven miles, then investigates how we will explore the ocean in the future. 
    Meticulously researched and drawing extensively on unpublished sources and personal interviews, The Frontier Below is the untold story of the pioneers who had the right stuff, but were forgotten because they went in the wrong direction. 
    The Frontier Below by Jeff Maynard is a captivating journey through the history of maritime expeditions, the science of physiology, and the economics of resource extraction. It is a testament to human endeavour and the indomitable spirit of exploration, offering a glimpse into the future of our oceans. 
    For fans of Julian Sancton (Madhouse at the End of the Earth), Buddy Levy (Empire of Ice and Stone), Rachel Lance (In the Waves), James Bradley (Ghost Species), and Helen Czerski (Blue Machine).
