Summary

In "The Call of the North," Stewart Edward White immerses readers in the rugged wilderness of the American Northwest, crafting a vivid narrative that intertwines adventure, nature, and the quest for personal revelation. Through a rich, descriptive prose style that epitomizes early 20th-century American literature, White evokes the expansive landscapes and primal beauty of the North. The novel explores themes of self-discovery and the relationship between man and nature, set against a backdrop of vibrant characters and poignant moments that reflect the transformative power of the wild. Stewart Edward White was not only a prolific author but also an ardent outdoorsman whose experiences in the backwoods significantly informed his writing. Born in 1872, White traveled extensively in the American wilderness, his fascination with the untamed elements of nature offering a profound lens through which he articulated themes of adventure and introspection. His firsthand experiences served as a catalyst for the authentic and immersive world he meticulously crafted in "The Call of the North." For anyone yearning for a gripping exploration of the natural world and the human spirit, this novel stands as a testament to the beauty of solitude and the allure of adventure. Readers will find within its pages a compelling narrative that not only entertains but also invites reflection on the enduring pull of the wild.

    Atomic Days - The Untold Story...

    Once home to the United States's largest plutonium production site, the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in Washington State is laced with 56 million gallons of radioactive waste. The threat of an explosive accident at Hanford is all too real—an event that could be more catastrophic than Chernobyl. 
 
  
 
The EPA designated Hanford the most toxic place in America; it is also the most expensive environmental clean-up job the world has ever seen, with a $677 billion price tag that keeps growing. Huge underground tanks, well past their life expectancy and full of boiling radioactive gunk, are leaking, infecting groundwater supplies and threatening the Columbia River. 
 
 
 
Whistleblowers are now speaking out, hoping their pleas can help bring attention to the dire situation at Hanford. Aside from a few feisty community groups and handful of Indigenous activists, there is very little public scrutiny of the clean-up process, which is managed by the Department of Energy and carried out by contractors with shoddy track records, like Bechtel. In the context of renewed support for atomic power as a means of combating climate change, Atomic Days provides a much-needed refutation of the myths of nuclear technology—from weapons to electricity—and shines a spotlight on the ravages of Hanford and its threat to communities, workers, and the global environment.

    Unleash the Power of Modern Web Development with Typescript

KEY FEATURES 
- This book offers hands-on examples for Typescript programming
- Advanced Typescript features such as enums, interfaces and namespaces explained
- Shares best practices for structuring TypeScript code using type annotations. Helps develop maintainable and scalable TypeScript code.

DESCRIPTION
This book provides a comprehensive guide to TypeScript, a programming language that extends JavaScript with powerful features like static typing, classes, and interfaces. The book is divided into thirteen chapters that cover everything from setting up a development environment to building an Angular app with TypeScript. 

We start with an introduction to TypeScript and its benefits and go on to explain how TypeScript can help developers write more maintainable, scalable code and catch errors before they make it to production. The book then dives into more technical topics like basic type annotations, using the TypeScript compiler, advanced features like enums and interfaces, and manipulating types. 

The book then discusses chapters on classes and control flow analysis that are particularly helpful for developers looking to build more complex applications. The book teaches by example, with numerous code examples that illustrate the main concepts and approaches towards writing TypeScript programs and codes, and finishes with a comprehensive practical example that shows step-by-step development of a modern web application using TypeScript and Angular.

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN 
- Learn how to create a new TypeScript project with default settings and configurations. 
- Discover how to incorporate basic type-annotations into your code for improved clarity and accuracy. 
- Explore the use of type-aliases, interfaces, and enums to write more organized and expressive TypeScript code. 
- Gain knowledge on building modular and error-free applications in TypeScript. 
- Discover how to leverage type-guards, classes, and other TypeScript utilities to write more robust code. 
- Learn how to work with advanced features like generics and take your TypeScript skills to the next level.

WHO IS THIS BOOK FOR?
This book is targeted towards front-end developers who are familiar with JavaScript and are interested in expanding their skillset with TypeScript. Whether you are a beginner with little to no experience or an intermediate developer looking for a reference guide, this book is designed to help you supercharge your development and enhance your tooling. With its clear and concise explanations, it's perfect for those who are new to TypeScript and looking to gain a deeper understanding of its capabilities.
