Beschreibung

Self Healing Roads explores the revolutionary concept of roads that can repair themselves, focusing on smart materials and sustainable infrastructure. This technology promises to reduce road maintenance and extend pavement lifespan, addressing the escalating costs and environmental concerns associated with traditional methods. Imagine asphalt repair happening autonomously through encapsulated rejuvenators! The book dives into the science behind these self-healing mechanisms, discussing polymers and bio-based additives, and how they interact with engineering principles like crack propagation. The book uniquely combines material science, civil engineering, and economic analysis to present a holistic view of self-healing roads. It showcases how proactive approaches can not only save resources but also lessen the carbon footprint of road construction. Beginning with an overview of current infrastructure challenges, the book systematically introduces self-healing materials, explores various repair mechanisms for asphalt and concrete pavements, analyzes performance through testing and simulations, and evaluates the economic and environmental feasibility of these innovative roads.

    Former Google advertising executive, now Oxford-trained philosopher James Williams launches a plea to society and to the tech industry to help ensure that the technology we all carry with us every day does not distract us from pursuing our true goals in life. As information becomes ever more plentiful, the resource that is becoming more scarce is our attention. In this ‘attention economy’, we need to recognise the fundamental impacts of our new information environment on our lives in order to take back control. Drawing on insights ranging from Diogenes to contemporary tech leaders, Williams’s thoughtful and impassioned analysis is sure to provoke discussion and debate. Williams is the inaugural winner of the Nine Dots Prize, a new Prize for creative thinking that tackles contemporary social issues.

    Tech giants like Facebook, Amazon, and Google can collect real-time data from billions of users. For companies that design and manufacture physical products, that type of fluid, data-rich information used to be a pipe dream. Now, with the rise of cheap and powerful sensors, supercomputing, and artificial intelligence, things are changing—fast. 
     
     
     
    In Fusion Strategy, world-renowned innovation guru Vijay Govindarajan and digital strategy expert Venkat Venkataraman offer a first-of-its-kind playbook that will help industrial companies combine what they do best—create physical products—with what digitals do best—use algorithms and AI to parse expansive, interconnected datasets—to make strategic connections that would otherwise be impossible. 
     
     
     
    The laws of competitive advantage are changing, rewarding those who have the most robust, data-driven insights rather than the most valuable assets. To compete in the new digital age, companies need to use real-time data to turbocharge their products, strategies, and customer relationships. Those that don't risk falling on the wrong side of the next great digital divide. 
     
     
     
    Fusion Strategy is the way forward.

    The Outline of Science, Volume 1 was written specifically with theman-on-the-street in mind as the target audience. Coveringscientific subjects ranging from astronomy to biology to elementaryphysics in clear, concise and easily understood prose, thispopular science work is largely as relevant today as when firstpublished in 1922. Special emphasis is given to the principlesof biological adaptation and evolution, especially how they relate tothe rise of the human species from lower orders. Also included arethe basics of the (then) fairly new concept of relativity and its impacton emerging scientific theories.Since first posted at Project Gutenberg in 2006, the text ofThe Outline of Science, Volume 1 has consistently ranked in the"Top 100 EBooks" category.(Summary by James Christopher)

    "Providing a post-COP26 perspective on the climate emergency, Hothouse Earth: An Inhabitant's Guide acknowledges that it is now practically impossible to keep this side of the 1.5°C dangerous climate-change guardrail. The upshot is that we can no longer dodge the arrival of a disastrous, all-pervasive climate breakdown that will come as a hammer blow to global society and economy. Bill McGuire, Professor of Geophysical and Climate Hazards, explains the science behind the climate crisis, painting a blunt but authentic picture of the sort of world our children will grow old in, and our grandchildren grow up in, a world that we catch only glimpses of in today's blistering heatwaves, calamitous wildfires, and ruinous floods and droughts. Bleak though it is, the picture is one we must all face up to, if only to spur genuine action—even at this late stage—to stop a harrowing future from becoming a truly cataclysmic one."
