Summary

Signal Mirror Angles explores the science and technology behind using signal mirrors for emergency communication, emphasizing reflection angles and line-of-sight signaling. In scenarios where electronic communication is unavailable, a signal mirror can become a lifeline. The book argues that understanding the physics of reflection is crucial for maximizing the effectiveness of these devices. For example, mastering the angles needed to create a focused beam of sunlight can significantly extend the range of visual communication. 

 
The book progresses logically, beginning with the basic physics of light, then detailing reflection angles and techniques for optimizing signal visibility under different environmental conditions. It also analyzes line-of-sight considerations, including how terrain and obstructions impact long-distance signaling. Understanding how to manipulate sunlight and the geometry involved in long-distance signaling are vital skills covered.

 
This approach moves beyond simple instructions, providing a deep understanding of the scientific principles that make signal mirrors powerful tools. The book uniquely combines theoretical explanations with hands-on techniques, offering actionable knowledge for outdoor enthusiasts, survivalists, and search and rescue personnel. It emphasizes empirical evidence and logical reasoning, presenting information in a clear, concise, and verifiable manner, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to enhance their survival communication skills.

    Until the middle of the nineteenth century entropy and energy were confused with one another. The intellectual fog slowly cleared and now these words name subtle and powerful concepts. Most people think they know what energy is, but few could define entropy.This Very Short Introduction traces the emergence of entropy and energy as distinct concepts, and explains how entropy spread from thermodynamics into statistical mechanics, probability theory and data science. It explains the implications of entropy for heat pumps, solar cells, carbon capture, and liquified natural gas. Quantum mechanics and gravity open new horizons for entropy, and when combined in the quantum theory of black holes, they call into question our current understanding of material reality.
