Sinopsis

Lightning Facts explores the powerful world of lightning, delving into the science behind its formation, its destructive potential, and its geographical distribution. Understanding lightning is crucial, especially with increasing extreme weather events. The book highlights how lightning, a dramatic display of atmospheric electricity, originates from charge separation within storm clouds.

 
Did you know that there are different types of lightning, such as cloud-to-ground and cloud-to-cloud, each with its own formation mechanism? This book examines the topic across three core themes: atmospheric physics, destructive impact, and geographical distribution.

 
Beginning with the fundamentals of atmospheric electricity, the book progresses by looking at different types of lightning and analyzing the effects of lightning strikes. A dedicated section maps global lightning patterns, identifying regions with the highest strike densities. Readers will gain a deeper appreciation of our planet's dynamics and the importance of lightning protection.

Biomimetics - How Lessons From...

Brian Clegg

An exploration of the transformative ways in which nature has inspired the technological advancement of humankind. 
 
Biomimetics literally means emulating biology - and in a broader sense the term covers technological advances where the original inspiration came from nature. The Earth is a vast laboratory where the mechanisms of natural selection have enabled evolutionary solutions to be developed to a wide range of problems. 
 
Science writer Brian Clegg looks at how humans have piggybacked on natural experimentation, redeploying a solution to create things that make our lives easier. He looks at how the hooks on burdock seeds inspired the creation of Velcro, how the stickiness of the feet of geckos and frogs has been used to create gripping surfaces, such as tyre treads, and how even the most basic optical enhancement in the form of spectacles is itself a form of biomimetics.

The Bruised Reed

Richard Sibbes

Richard Sibbes was a Puritan pastor and theologian in the 17th century. His best known work, The Bruised Reed, is based on a Scripture verse from Matt. 12:20: "A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory." Sibbes uses this text to respond to the despondent thoughts and fears that many Christians have. He draws a picture of Christ's gentleness and mercy for the Christians who feel themselves small and weak. The Bruised Reed is full of an amazing amount of soul-comfort. I cannot recommend it highly enough, especially to Christians struggling with depression, regret, or fear.The publishers' foreword quotes Dr. Martyn Lloyd Jones, who said:"I shall never cease to be grateful to . . . Richard Sibbes who was balm to my soul at a period in my life when I was overworked and badly overtired, and therefore subject in an unusual manner to the onslaughts of the devil. In that state and condition . . . what you need is some gentle, tender treatment for your soul. I found at that time that Richard Sibbes, who was known in London in the early seventeenth century as 'the heavenly Doctor Sibbes', was an unfailing remedy. His books The Bruised Reed and The Soul's Conflict quietened, soothed, comforted, encouraged and healed me."(Introduction by rosea)
