Sinossi

Flood Waters Recede explores how communities can rebuild stronger after devastating floods by connecting community cooperation with sustainable engineering. As climate change intensifies and urbanization expands, the book emphasizes the importance of resilient design and community engagement in not only restoring what was lost but also creating lasting defenses against future disasters. Did you know that integrating nature-based solutions, like constructed wetlands, can significantly reduce flood impacts while enhancing local ecosystems?

 
The book highlights instances where collaborative efforts and innovative engineering have led to successful recoveries and examines failures where these elements were missing. The book argues for a shift from top-down approaches to a model that values local knowledge and promotes community ownership. It begins by introducing resilient design principles and examining case studies from various locations.

 
Sections delve into community organizing, sustainable engineering solutions, and policy frameworks that incentivize resilience.

 
Ultimately, Flood Waters Recede provides a practical guide for policymakers, engineers, and community leaders, offering actionable steps for implementing integrated rebuilding strategies and fostering disaster resilience.

The Brain Savers - How a Scrappy...

Colin T. McDonald, Bonnie...

A FULL CAST PERFORMANCE, FEATURING HOLLYWOOD ACTORS, SOUND EFFECTS, AND AN ORIGINAL SCORE!
From the authors of the New York Times bestseller, The Barefoot Spirit, and the Audie Award finalist, genre-bending audiobook of the same name, comes a story of vision and invention, failure and setbacks, mistakes and lessons. Business Audio Theatre presents a Sherwood Players Production, The Brain Savers, the true story of how a scrappy startup used technology to put the humanity of patients first and ended up changing medicine forever.
Amid the internet boom of the mid-2000s, a band of entrepreneurs stood at the intersection of medicine, technology, and business. They saw a solution to the crucial problems of emergency care, which was too often handicapped by underfunding, overscheduled specialists, archaic practices, and onerous equipment. Through pioneering telemedicine and new inventions like the portable CT scanner, the founders of Specialists on Call (S.O.C.) did more than just make emergency care better, faster, and more humane; they brought health care, which is often described as the slowest industry in America to change, into the 21st Century.
This is Dr. Colin McDonald’s story of how S.O.C. came to be. After leaving a cushy teaching position at Harvard, it took years of pursuing a single objective, then changing on a dime, to create S.O.C. In the end, what he created was a system that saved lives—and continues to save lives today.
Some of these hard-learned lessons are complex, while others are so timeless they almost sound cliché (“trust your vision and your moral compass, change when you must, just keep going”), but they are far from cliché for the founders of S.O.C. Theirs is a story of people with imagination and drive who wanted to make the world better, who trusted their ideas and each other, and who, despite everything, kept on going!

Spaced Out - A Casual Approach...

Kalpana Pot

Spaced Out is designed to give a brief overview on all of the subjects that pertain to astronomy and space sciences in a down-to-Earth way.  
It is inspired by current space news and the most asked questions from popular science communicator Kalpana Pot’s online audience.  
The subjects covered include our solar system, stars, galaxies, exoplanets, telescopes, spacetime, interstellar objects, relativity, quantum mechanics, debunking conspiracies, and the unknown.  
Each page covers one specific concept that fits into the above categories. This gives the readers a general take on rather complex topics.  
Readers are further encouraged to do their own deep-dive on the topics that interest them the most. 
The more we learn about the Universe, the more we realize how much we don’t know. Discoveries that challenge what we once thought we knew happen all the time. This book is accurate for the time of the writing, but things can always change, and that’s what’s most exciting about science in general!  
Space is for everyone. You’re never too old, too young, too uneducated, or even too busy to slow down and ponder the final frontier.
