Sinossi

Aerodynamics In Cars unveils how car design strategically harnesses airflow to minimize drag and maximize downforce, boosting speed and efficiency. It explores the crucial link between a car's shape and performance, explaining how aerodynamic principles are applied in automotive engineering. For example, the book details how seemingly minor design choices, like the curvature of a hood or the shape of a rear spoiler, profoundly affect drag, which directly impacts fuel consumption. Another key area is downforce generation, crucial for enhancing grip and stability, particularly at high speeds. The book systematically progresses from fundamental aerodynamic principles to specific components like front splitters and diffusers, analyzing their design considerations and impact on overall vehicle performance. Case studies illustrating real-world applications are included. Grounded in established principles and supported by wind tunnel testing and CFD simulations, the book uniquely focuses on practical design considerations and trade-offs, bridging the gap between theory and real-world application.

Artificial Intelligence - Ai...

Christian Farsley

AI systems are designed and programmed to mimic human thought and behavior, making artificial intelligence an integral part of our daily lives. This technology impacts a wide range of services and experiences. 
  
For many, the most visible benefits of AI are seen in new gadgets and features, such as voice-activated assistants and facial recognition for unlocking devices. However, AI is also set to revolutionize other areas, such as healthcare. For example, hospitals in India are testing software that analyzes retinal images to detect diabetic retinopathy, a condition that is often diagnosed too late to prevent vision loss. In autonomous driving, AI helps vehicles understand and navigate their environments. AI is already embedded in many applications, from search algorithms to bionic limbs for the disabled.

Urban Poverty and Inequality -...

Lyric Vale

Urban poverty is a pervasive issue that affects millions of people living in cities worldwide. As cities continue to grow at an unprecedented rate, the number of urban poor continues to rise, with large portions of the population living in conditions of extreme deprivation. The term "urban poverty" refers to the situation where individuals and families in urban areas experience a lack of access to basic resources, such as adequate housing, healthcare, education, and employment opportunities. Despite being situated in areas of economic activity and growth, urban poor populations face numerous challenges that contribute to their ongoing struggle for survival and upward mobility.
The growth of cities and urban centers has been accompanied by an increasing divide between the wealthy and the poor. While urban areas are often seen as hubs of opportunity, economic growth, and development, they also tend to highlight social and economic inequalities. Rapid urbanization, coupled with limited resources, leads to overcrowded slums, informal settlements, and a lack of infrastructure in many parts of cities. In such environments, the poor face challenges such as high unemployment rates, limited access to education, and poor healthcare services. These conditions create a cycle of poverty that is difficult to escape.
In addition, the urban poor are often excluded from key economic and social systems that would help alleviate their poverty. The concentration of wealth in urban centers disproportionately benefits the middle and upper classes, while marginalized communities remain on the periphery, unable to fully participate in the economic, political, and social life of the city. This growing inequality between different social classes exacerbates poverty and leaves the urban poor trapped in a cycle of disadvantage.

Otter Country - An Unexpected...

Miriam Darlington

A plan formed in my mind. I would explore the places in this land that hid my grail. I would spend a whole year or longer, if that's what it took, wading through marshes, hiding between mossy rocks, paddling down rivers, and swimming in sea lochs; recording my journey through the seasons as I searched for wild otters. 
 
 
 
Mysterious, graceful, and ever-clever, otters have captivated our imaginations, despite the fact that few people have encountered one in the wild. In Otter Country, celebrated nature writer Miriam Darlington captures the fascination she's had for these playful animals since childhood, and chronicles her immersive journey into their watery world. 
 
 
 
Over the course of a single year, Darlington takes listeners on a winding expedition in pursuit of these elusive creatures—from her home in Devon, England, and through the wilds of Scotland, Wales, the Lake District, and the countryside of Cornwall. As she's drawn deeper into wilder habitats, trekking through changing landscapes, seasons, and weather, Darlington meets biologists, conservationists, fishing and hunting enthusiasts, and poets—enriching her understanding, admiration, and awe of the wild otter. With each encounter, she reveals the scientific, environmental, and cultural importance of this creature and the places it calls home.
