Summary

Magnet Powered Trains explores the revolutionary potential of magnetic levitation (Maglev) technology to reshape rail transport. This book examines how Maglev trains, which eliminate friction by floating above the tracks, can achieve unprecedented speeds and efficiency. The core concept lies in using electromagnetic forces to lift, propel, and guide trains, paving the way for a smoother, faster, and more environmentally friendly mode of transportation. For example, existing commercial Maglev lines have demonstrated the viability of this technology, reaching speeds exceeding 300 mph.

 
The book begins with the fundamental physics of electromagnetism, then progresses to a historical overview of Maglev development and the engineering challenges, such as track design and power requirements. A key focus is comparing Electrodynamic Suspension (EDS) and Electromagnetic Suspension (EMS) systems.

 
The book uniquely addresses the real-world issues of Maglev implementation beyond theoretical aspects, analyzing economic considerations like capital costs and potential return on investment. It culminates in a comparative analysis of Maglev versus conventional high-speed rail, weighing factors like energy consumption and noise pollution, while also exploring future applications in urban and long-distance travel.
Available since: 03/12/2025.

    Not long ago, J. Matthew Sleeth had a fantastic life and a great job as chief of the medical staff at a large hospital. He was living the American dream—until he saw an increasing number of his patients suffering from cancer, asthma, and other chronic diseases. He began to suspect that the Earth and its inhabitants were in deep trouble. Turning to Jesus for guidance, Sleeth discovered how the scriptural lessons of personal responsibility, simplicity, and stewardship could be applied to modern life. The Sleeths have since sold their big home and given away more than half of what they once owned. In Serve God, Save the Planet, Sleeth shares the joy of adopting a less materialistic, healthier lifestyle, stronger relationships, and richer spiritual lives. With the storytelling ease of James Herriot and the logical clarity of C. S. Lewis, Sleeth lays out the rationale for environmentally responsible life changes and a how-to guide for making those changes.“Creation is groaning. And Matthew Sleeth has responded. Serve God, Save the Planet is not an alarmist call of despair, but a hopeful invitation to re-imagine the way we live. Sleeth’s words have the urgency of an ER crisis coupled with the deep faith that the Church is ready to join God in healing the wounded world.”--Shane Claiborne, activist and author of The Irresistible Revolution.

    In Harnessing Disruption, Sarah E. Kreps—a national security expert and military veteran—offers a fresh, clear-eyed framework for understanding the social and political dynamics that shape technological change. From nuclear weapons to AI, cryptocurrency, and social media, breakthrough innovations rarely arrive without backlash. Disruption is not collapse. History shows it is part of a recurring pattern.With unmatched insight and authority, Kreps traces a five-stage cycle that technologies follow: emergence, early warnings, crisis, agenda-setting, and institutional response. Drawing on decades of research and real-world policy experience, she argues that disruption is neither inherently dangerous nor inherently self-correcting. Rather, it's a process we can steer, if we learn to see the signs and act decisively.Harnessing Disruption challenges fatalistic narratives that cast AI and other technologies as uncontrollable forces. It makes the case for cautious optimism: that institutions can adapt, societies can recalibrate, and technologies can be governed in ways that protect both innovation and the public good. Timely, incisive, and grounded in both historical precedent and contemporary case studies, this book provides the tools for anyone to understand where we are in the cycle of disruption and how to shape what comes next.

    A compelling story of one family's determination to save their grumpy old horse against all odds. 
The Baker family bought Denver to be a family horse, and he took care of their children for several years as well as he could. So when, in a freak trailer accident, Denver injured himself badly, the family was upset. 
Denver's girl, Tessa, was devastated.  
Sadly, his injury was difficult to diagnose, and once they finally figured out what was wrong, it was so rare that it didn't really have an established treatment. The vets suggested the Bakers put him down, since he was old, and frankly, not so great. He hadn't been expnsive, and the experimental treatment they thought might save him was risky, long term, and expensive.  
The Baker family decided to take a gamble on their beloved horse anyway.  
The decision changed all their lives, and it blessed them in ways they never expected. Join Denver and Bridget as they tell the story from dual POVs. It will break your heart, but it will heal it again and then some.
