This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Welcome to a new installment of the most successful collection in America, welcome to the Aeronautical Library! In this new edition, we have decided to take a different path to how we write and transmit knowledge and experiences. This new volume is not a technical manual like the previous manuals. Still, it is an explanatory manual based on experiences lived by a group of airline professionals who today form elite crews in international airlines worldwide. They will detail their paths until they reach where they are, they will express their experiences by recommending to each reader the most agile way to achieve their professional goals. This book is focused on understanding the way to becoming part of an international flight crew, starting from the initial interview in a company, through the entire personnel selection process, the theoretical courses of the plane to fly, the specific simulator instruction, the real flight instruction, the semi-annual instruction, the annual and semi-annual checks, the day-to-day work with all the operational details and many more details to know. Throughout these pages, each reader will know the experiences lived by our team of pilots, today temporarily writers, who have dedicated their free time to making a portrait of their experiences that we will call "Stories of Success" for this manual to become an indispensable guide for any pilot who wants to achieve the dream of flying an international airline. For such dedication, we thank Marcos (Pilot Boeing 787 Latam Airlines), Maximiliano (Pilot Airbus 380 Emirates), Fernando (Pilot Airbus 320 LatamAirline) and José (PilotA330 AviancaAirlines).Ver libro
The Gospel Coaltion Award of Distinction—Christian Living Outreach Resource of the Year The digital age is in the business of commodifying our attention. The technologies of our day are determined to keep us scrolling and swiping at all costs, plugged into a feedback loop of impatience, comparison, outrage, and contempt. Blind to the dangers, we enjoy its temporary pleasures, unaware of the damage to our souls. Jay Kim's Analog Church explored the ways the digital age and its values affect the life of the church. In Analog Christian, he asks the same question of Christian discipleship. As the digital age inclines us to discontentment, fragility, and foolishness, how are followers of Jesus to respond? What is the theological basis for living in creative resistance to the forces of our day? How can Christians cultivate the contentment, resilience, and wisdom to not only survive but to thrive as we navigate the specific challenges of our age?Ver libro
In the late 1990s, astronomers made a discovery that completely changed our understanding of the universe. While studying distant supernovae to measure how fast the universe was expanding, researchers expected to see signs that the expansion was slowing down due to gravity. Instead, they found the opposite—the expansion was speeding up. This unexpected observation pointed to something completely unknown, an unseen force that counteracts gravity and drives galaxies apart at an accelerating rate. That force was given the name "dark energy." The term "dark" doesn't mean this energy is black or shadowy, but rather that it's unknown and mysterious. Scientists still don’t know what it really is, only that it seems to make up around 68 percent of the total energy in the universe. That’s a huge amount, especially considering that everything we can see—stars, planets, gas, dust—makes up less than 5 percent. The rest is made of dark matter, another unknown component, but dark energy is even more puzzling. It doesn’t clump like matter does, and it seems to be spread evenly through space. Astronomers began piecing this together by observing Type Ia supernovae, which are exploding stars that always reach roughly the same brightness. Because of that consistency, they can be used like cosmic measuring sticks. When scientists looked at supernovae that were billions of light-years away, they saw that those objects were dimmer than expected. That meant they were farther away than predicted, and the only explanation was that the universe had expanded more than anyone thought. It wasn’t just expanding—it was accelerating.Ver libro

Species Interactions is a clear, engaging introduction to how life holds together. Written for readers with no prior background, it reveals the everyday logic behind the living world—how species compete for resources, how predators and prey shape each other, and how microbes, plants, and animals form partnerships that make survival possible. This book moves from core concepts like niches, food webs, and trophic dynamics to practical views of symbiosis, microbial ecosystems, network stability, and resilience. Along the way, it shows how observation, simple experiments, and pattern recognition can turn any backyard, park, or city block into a living classroom. The result is a friendly yet rigorous guide to seeing, understanding, and caring for the connections that sustain ecosystems and our daily lives.Ver libro
Artist Norman Thelwell is best known for his cartoons depicting plump, petulant ponies and their young riders, but The Effluent Society shows another aspect of his work and character. Thelwell was passionate about the countryside and nature. During his life he became increasingly concerned about the impact of development, pollution and society's treatment of the environment. When The Effluent Society was first published in 1971, his concerns were way ahead of their time. Today, environmental and conservation issues are in the mainstream and have become a global priority. Although the cartoons focus on a serious topic there is no mistaking Thelwell's inimitable style. He used his talent and humour to convey a powerful message: the need to protect the environment. He also takes a wry look at modern life and so-called progress. Thelwell admitted that out of all his books, The Effluent Society was the one that gave him the greatest 'personal satisfaction' and, as such, the re-issue of this title is a fitting tribute to the artist.Ver libro
