  For any sailor, in a yacht or motorboat, the passage from one place to another is relatively easy, particularly with modern navigation equipment. What can be more of a challenge (and a potential source of anxiety for skipper and crew) is the start and end of a passage – how to leave and arrive safely, particularly if it's a cramped marina or crowded anchorage. In Illustrated Seamanship, Ivar Dedekam takes you through the techniques required to achieve a safe departure and arrival. Starting with the fundamentals of ropework he then moves on to manoeuvring, berthing, making fast and then leaving. All types of berthing are covered from coming alongside, stern to, bow to, between finger pontoons and using piles and buoys. There is advice about dealing with different wind and current directions as well as using springs. Ivar then turns to anchoring and offers guidance on setting and weighing anchor in many different circumstances: under sail and under power, using one or two anchors and coping with changes in wind and tide while anchored. You probably won't experience all the scenarios that Ivar so carefully describes, but you will certainly come across quite a few. Knowing what to do when a new situation comes up could be invaluable, increasing your confidence and leading to greater enjoyment and use of your boat. With over 500 diagrams, this slim volume is a perfect reminder of frequently used techniques and could be your get-out-of-jail card when a new circumstance arises. This new edition has an improved layout and the eBook's functionality has been improved significantly.

  Rosacea - Effective Strategies...

  Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects the face, causing persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and, in some cases, pimple-like bumps. It is a common but often misunderstood disorder that can significantly impact a person’s quality of life. While the condition is not life-threatening, its unpredictable flare-ups and visible symptoms can lead to embarrassment, self-consciousness, and emotional distress. 
  One of the most challenging aspects of rosacea is its variable nature. Symptoms may appear suddenly and worsen over time if left untreated. Many individuals experience cycles of remission and exacerbation, where the skin improves temporarily before another flare-up occurs. Rosacea typically develops in adulthood, most commonly between the ages of 30 and 50, and affects both men and women. However, men are more likely to experience severe symptoms, particularly skin thickening on the nose, a condition known as rhinophyma. 
  The exact cause of rosacea remains unclear, but research suggests it results from a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors. Studies indicate that an overactive immune response, abnormalities in the skin’s blood vessels, and an increased presence of microscopic skin mites (Demodex folliculorum) may all contribute to its development. Certain triggers, such as sun exposure, spicy foods, alcohol, stress, and extreme temperatures, can exacerbate symptoms, making management crucial.

  Climate Hope - Stories of Action...

  David Geselbracht

  Climate change is a problem so enormous and complex—with threats so frightening in their implications—that many of us fend off confusion and hopelessness by simply turning away. Meanwhile, with delayed action, missed targets, and increasingly dire reports at the international level, a notion that the crisis is intractable continues to spread. And the proposed solutions can be just as daunting. They often involve jargon about gigatons of carbon and kilowatt-hours of electricity. In a deeply polarized political environment, any sense of the common purpose required to make these work seems to dissolve into denial or paralysis. With all this fear and conflict, the question must be asked: How do we find the tools and the hope we need to tackle such a wickedly difficult issue? 
   
   
   
  In Climate Hope, journalist David Geselbracht blends in-depth research, expert interviews, and on-the-ground reporting in multiple countries, revealing remarkable efforts to identify the causes and impacts of climate change—and devise crucial ways to address them. The scale of the challenge is clear in the range of fields he covers, from glaciology and climate science to law and diplomacy. But in drawing these approaches together, he shares stories of hope, awe, and wonder that encourage us to confront this long-term, world-warping phenomenon with a renewed sense of purpose and possibility.
