Summary

Hydroplanes explores the resurgence of water-based aviation, focusing on hybrid aircraft that use water takeoff to boost efficiency and cut environmental impact. The book dives into the science and technology behind these designs, arguing they're a practical solution for regional transportation. Interestingly, combining advanced materials with innovative hull designs allows modern hydroplanes to achieve a balance of range, payload, and fuel efficiency that rivals traditional aircraft in specific scenarios. 

 
The book progresses logically, starting with the scientific principles of water-based flight, like hull design and aerodynamics, before moving into the latest advancements in materials and propulsion, including hybrid-electric systems. It also highlights existing hydroplane operations to demonstrate their economic viability. This approach offers a holistic view, examining not just the technology, but also the environmental, economic, and regulatory hurdles to widespread hydroplane adoption, connecting aviation technology to environmental science and economics.

    The story of the stories we tell about the abyss, uncanny folklore linking seafarers across time and the globe. The vast expanse, unknown depths, dangers, and mysteries of the sea have led mariners to create fantastical stories of ghosts and monsters for centuries; it is a world strange and other to the experience of land dwellers. This body of lore has served to bond nautical communities together around the world and throughout history, with international stories fusing with local tales. The Perilous Deep explores why these stories were told, how they were repeated and mutated, and what fears, anxieties, and desires they helped to express. This is a fascinating exploration of the supernatural history of the Atlantic Ocean and some of its neighboring seas, showing how seafaring peoples have developed knowledge and a sense of control over nature through myths and legends.

  • The Language of Climate Politics - Fossil-Fuel Propaganda and How to Fight It - cover

    The Language of Climate Politics...

    In an illuminating analysis, Dr. Genevieve Guenther shows that the climate debate is not, in fact, neatly polarized, with Republicans obstructing climate action and Democrats advancing climate solutions. Partisans on the right and the left often repeat the same fossil-fuel talking points, and this repetition produces a centrist consensus upholding the status quo, even as global heating accelerates. 
 
 
 
Weaving this analysis through fascinating critical histories of the terms that dominate the language of climate politics—the words we, alarmist, cost, growth, "India and China," innovation, and resilience—Dr. Guenther shows how this consensus is established. Fossil-fuel interests weaponize the discourses of science, economics, and activism, co-opting and twisting climate language to help greenwash their plans for ongoing extraction. But all too often climate scientists, economists, and even advocates will unwittingly echo the false and dangerous assumptions of their supposed political opponents. This apparent agreement between foes, filtered through the news media, not only influences our commonsense yet mistaken views about the climate crisis but also enables powerful decisionmakers to justify the corporate and policy actions that threaten us all. Revealing this dynamic, Guenther shows how to transform it.
