Sinossi

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.

    This audiobook narrated by Martin Rees and Samuel West offers a provocative and inspiring look at the future of humanity and science
    
    Humanity has reached a critical moment. Our world is unsettled and rapidly changing, and we face existential risks over the next century. Various outcomes—good and bad—are possible. Yet our approach to the future is characterized by short-term thinking, polarizing debates, alarmist rhetoric, and pessimism. In this short, exhilarating book, renowned scientist and bestselling author Martin Rees argues that humanity's prospects depend on our taking a very different approach to planning for tomorrow.
    
    The future of humanity is bound to the future of science and hinges on how successfully we harness technological advances to address our challenges. If we are to use science to solve our problems while avoiding its dystopian risks, we must think rationally, globally, collectively, and optimistically about the long term. Advances in biotechnology, cybertechnology, robotics, and artificial intelligence—if pursued and applied wisely—could empower us to boost the developing and developed world and overcome the threats humanity faces on Earth, from climate change to nuclear war. At the same time, further advances in space science will allow humans to explore the solar system and beyond with robots and AI. But there is no "Plan B" for Earth—no viable alternative within reach if we do not care for our home planet.
    
    Rich with fascinating insights into cutting-edge science and technology, this accessible book will captivate anyone who wants to understand the critical issues that will define the future of humanity on Earth and beyond.

    Twenty meters below water, the oceanographer François Sarano came face to face with a five-and-a-half-meter great white shark. Seduced by the gentle elegance of this majestic creature, Sarano experienced a profound sense of affinity with her as they swam side by side, shoulder to shoulder, eye to eye, cutting a single figure through the ocean depths. It was an experience which made him realize the depth of our ignorance of the lives of sharks, leading him to become a passionate advocate for their protection. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on the latest scientific research on the biology and ethology of sharks and their exceptional characteristics, this book aims to break through the barrier of prejudice and to pay homage to their true nature. Representing a last vestige of wildness, their populations are nevertheless under threat—like so many species, they have been hunted and exploited by humans. Sarano argues for a change of mindset in which we lose ourselves in the world of the other, so that each living entity, human and non-human, can take their rightful place in the broader global ecosystem.
