Sinossi

"Natural Navigation" unveils the forgotten art of navigating without modern instruments, offering a blend of adventure and practical earth sciences geography. This book explores how to determine your position and direction using celestial observation, natural indicators, and time calculation, skills vital to ancient mariners and explorers.

 
Did you know that understanding the movement of the sun, moon, and stars can reveal your latitude and longitude? Or that patterns in wind, terrain, and even the behavior of local wildlife offer navigational clues?

 
The text emphasizes a hands-on approach, teaching readers to interpret their surroundings and understand the interconnectedness of natural systems. Starting with fundamental principles, the book progresses through celestial navigation, interpreting natural indicators, and calculating time using the sun and stars. Each chapter builds upon the last, culminating in practical exercises and real-world scenarios that empower anyone to confidently navigate any environment, enhancing their connection with the natural world.

    Delve into the fundamental principles that govern our universe with this comprehensive three-part volume exploring the bedrock theories of physics. From the elegant mathematics of motion to the mind-bending concepts of quantum mechanics, this meticulously crafted work provides both students and enthusiasts with a deep understanding of the laws that shape our physical reality.  
    Classical Mechanics unveils the mathematical framework that describes the motion of objects from subatomic particles to celestial bodies. Journey through Newton's laws of motion and universal gravitation to the sophisticated formulations of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics. Discover how these principles not only explain everyday phenomena but also laid the groundwork for all subsequent physical theories. 
    Classical Electrodynamics illuminates the profound connection between electricity and magnetism unified by Maxwell's equations. Explore the behavior of electric and magnetic fields, electromagnetic waves, and the principles that enable modern technologies from power generation to telecommunications. Understand how these theories revolutionized our conception of physical reality and led to Einstein's special theory of relativity. 
    Concepts of Modern Physics bridges the gap between classical theories and the revolutionary ideas of 20th-century physics. Examine the quantum mechanical picture of the subatomic world, where particles exhibit wave-like properties and certainty gives way to probability. Explore special and general relativity, where time and space become relative concepts, and matter and energy reveal themselves as two aspects of the same fundamental reality. 
    This accessible yet rigorous volume features clear explanations, illustrative examples, and challenging problems that develop both intuitive understanding and mathematical facility.

    The next generation of robots will be truly social, but can we make sure that they play well in the sandbox? 
    Most robots are just tools. They do limited sets of tasks subject to constant human control. But a new type of robot is coming. These machines will operate on their own in busy, unpredictable public spaces. They'll ferry deliveries, manage emergency rooms, even grocery shop. Such systems could be truly collaborative, accomplishing tasks we don't do well without our having to stop and direct them. 
    This makes them social entities, so, as robot designers Laura Major and Julie Shah argue, whether they make our lives better or worse is a matter of whether they know how to behave. 
    What to Expect When You're Expecting Robots offers a vision for how robots can survive in the real world and how they will change our relationship to technology. From teaching them manners, to robot-proofing public spaces, to planning for their mistakes, this audiobook answers every question you didn't know you needed to ask about the robots on the way.
