Sinopse

"Aquaponics Explained" offers a comprehensive exploration of an innovative farming method that combines fish cultivation with hydroponic plant growing in a closed-loop ecosystem. This revolutionary approach promises to use 90% less water than traditional farming while producing both fresh fish and organic vegetables in a self-sustaining system.

 
The book masterfully breaks down complex biological processes into digestible concepts, making it accessible for both beginners and experienced practitioners. The guide progresses logically through three main sections, beginning with fundamental principles like the nitrogen cycle and water chemistry, then advancing to practical implementation with detailed construction guides and maintenance protocols, and finally exploring advanced techniques for commercial scaling and climate-specific adaptations.

 
What sets this book apart is its evidence-based approach, drawing from peer-reviewed research and real-world case studies across various climates and operational scales. Particularly valuable for both hobby gardeners and agricultural entrepreneurs, the book addresses crucial aspects of system optimization, including fish species selection, plant combinations, and environmental control methods.

 
It takes a balanced approach to current debates in the field while providing practical tools for success, from basic system design to financial planning for commercial operations. The inclusion of detailed diagrams, step-by-step procedures, and monitoring protocols makes this an indispensable resource for anyone interested in sustainable food production.

The Back Story on Spine Care - A...

Dr. Drew Bednar

A practical and occasionally provocative look at the state of spinal surgical care 
 
 
 
Just a few decades ago most spine surgery was literally a gamble: maybe you'd get better and maybe you wouldn't. Today we have the knowledge, understanding, and technology to predictably relieve pain and neurological deficits like never before—yet many patients are still getting subpar care. 
 
 
 
Foundational knowledge of surgical spine care isn't spreading to the medical community, let alone to patients, whose quality of life hangs in the balance. With The Back Story on Spine Care, orthopedic specialist Dr. Drew Bednar presents case studies that illuminate the common issues plaguing patients—and their treatment—today. 
 
 
 
Back problems are among the most common health issues, and with Dr. Bednar's insights, knowledge, and practical tips, medical professionals can provide care that leads to healthier backs and happier lives.

Search for Exoplanets The: The...

Editors Charles River

While modern technology has helped astronomers view the furthest reaches of the Solar System, it has also allowed scientists to start discovering planets orbiting distant stars. To make it easier to assess the relative mass and size of the new planets being discovered, scientists give these measurements as multiples of those properties for either Jupiter or Earth. In other words, if the planet is the same mass as Jupiter, then this measure would be listed as 1.0 MJ. If it were three times the mass of Earth, then it would be listed as 3.0 MEarth. The sizes of exoplanets are frequently given by expressing their radii as multiples of Jupiter’s radius or as multiples of Earth’s radius, RJ and REarth, respectively.
Of course, given the immense distances involved, detecting exoplanets has always been hard, even to this day. The variations of light that might be evidence of an exoplanet can be caused by other phenomena, and separating the false positives from the actual detections is part of the rigor required by modern planet hunters. For example, in July 1988, a Canadian team led by astronomers Bruce Campbell, Gordon Walker, and Stephenson Yang discovered persistent indications that a planet orbited the primary star in the Gamma Cephei system, 44.98 light-years (13.79 parsecs) from the Earth. Though the technique they used was successfully employed in many subsequent discoveries, the quality of their data was insufficient for others to verify as unequivocally the result of an extrasolar planet. For reasons of poor data quality, the claimed discovery of Gamma Cephei Ab was retracted in 1992.
The first confirmed discovery of an exoplanet involved a system that surprised most planet hunters. While most astronomers had been looking to find planets orbiting stars in the main sequence (between infancy and old age) or in their old age (giant phase), the first confirmed planets were found to orbit a dead star.

Right Down + Circle - Tony...

Cole Nowicki

An exuberant, incisive look at how Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater transformed a culture
		 
Going from a hobby toy for surfers to an Olympic sport, skateboarding has had a tumultuous history. Today, professional skateboarders land endorsement deals with Nike and Adidas, while popular television series like HBO’s Betty tell the stories of diverse crews of skaters living in New York City. So how did a fledgling subculture rise from its near-death knell in the ’90s to become ubiquitous today? It was simply a matter of finding the right messenger.
		 
In 1999, the bestselling video game Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater was released, and a new generation was exposed to skateboarding culture right in their very own homes. Kids and adults alike could now spend hours playing as actual skateboarders, learning the vernacular, listening to the music skateboarders loved, and having fun onscreen before trying to skate IRL in the driveway.
		 
Right, Down + Circle explores how a video game starring the most famous pro skater in the world brought skateboarding culture — and its ever-shifting markers of music, subversion, and coolness — to the masses and ultimately transformed the culture it borrowed from in the process.

Time Waves - How To Spot Them...

Michael Mathiesen

What if time isn’t a straight line—but a wave you can ride?
In Time Waves, Michael Mathiesen invites readers on a mind-bending journey through the quantum surf of reality itself. Blending cutting-edge physics, mythic resonance, and visionary storytelling, this book challenges everything we think we know about time, consciousness, and our place in the universe.
Drawing inspiration from quantum mechanics, gravitational wave theory, Jungian archetypes, and the poetic elegance of wave interference, Mathiesen proposes a radical new framework: time is not a passive backdrop to our lives—it’s an active, dynamic field of energy, pulsing with rhythms we can learn to detect, interpret, and even harness.
Spot the Patterns. Feel the Pull. Catch the Wave.
Whether you're a physicist, philosopher, seeker, or surfer of ideas, Time Waves offers a toolkit for navigating the unseen forces shaping our lives. Through vivid metaphors, scientific rigor, and speculative leaps, Mathiesen explores:
The anatomy of a time wave—how resonance, amplitude, and phase shifts mirror our lived experience.
Interference patterns of destiny—why some moments feel “meant to be” and others spiral into chaos.
The surfer’s mindset—how intuition, timing, and flow state align with quantum principles.
Atomic clocks and cosmic choreography—a visionary proposal to ESA and NASA to detect time waves via the LISA mission.
Mythology meets physics—from Hermes to Hawking, how ancient symbols echo modern science.
