Sinossi

"Smart Materials" explores a revolutionary class of materials engineered to respond dynamically to their environment. Imagine bridges that self-repair or clothing that adapts to temperature changes; this book reveals the science behind these advancements. It addresses pressing global issues, such as creating sustainable infrastructure with self-healing concrete and revolutionizing personalized medicine through responsive materials.

 
The book traces the evolution from traditional materials to these adaptive systems, explaining complex concepts with clarity. For example, shape-memory alloys, which revert to their original shape after deformation, are transforming medical devices. Chromogenic materials, which change color in response to stimuli, are finding applications from smart windows to camouflage.

 
"Smart Materials" progresses from fundamental principles to real-world applications, including self-healing polymers and nanotechnology, examining their potential and ethical considerations. What distinguishes this book is its accessible approach, avoiding excessive jargon while providing a balanced perspective on both the benefits and challenges of responsive materials. It's designed for a broad audience, from students and researchers to anyone intrigued by the future of materials science and technology.

Geophysics and Large-Scale...

Mark Hedges

This book bundle provides a comprehensive exploration of the dynamic systems that govern our planet and the broader universe. The book starts by examining geophysics, the study of Earth's physical properties and processes, such as seismic activity, magnetic fields, and plate tectonics, offering critical insights into the mechanisms that shape our planet's structure and behavior. It delves into how forces within Earth interact on both a global and local scale, including how geophysical phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity affect human societies. 
Expanding beyond Earth, the book also introduces string theory, an advanced framework in theoretical physics that attempts to unify the forces of nature by describing particles as vibrating strings. String theory provides a potential explanation for the fundamental structure of the universe, connecting the realms of quantum mechanics and general relativity. The principles of physics serve as the foundation for understanding these phenomena, tying together classical and modern theories to explain the behavior of matter and energy across different scales—from the Earth’s interior to the farthest reaches of space.

Still Hopeful - Lessons from a...

Maude Barlow

“Canada’s best-known voice of dissent.” — CBC
		 
“It’s time we listened to the Maude Barlows of the world.” — CNN
		 
In this timely book, Barlow counters the prevailing atmosphere of pessimism that surrounds us and offers lessons of hope that she has learned from a lifetime of activism. She has been a linchpin in three major movements in her life: second-wave feminism, the battle against free trade and globalization, and the global fight for water justice. From each of these she draws her lessons of hope, emphasizing that effective activism is not really about the goal, rather it is about building a movement and finding like-minded people to carry the load with you. Barlow knows firsthand how hard fighting for change can be. But she also knows that change does happen and that hope is the essential ingredient.
