Beschreibung

"Buried Nuclear Waste" presents a comprehensive exploration of one of the most critical challenges facing modern energy production: the safe, long-term management of radioactive materials. The book expertly weaves together three fundamental aspects of nuclear waste management: containment technologies, regulatory frameworks, and environmental impact assessment, providing readers with a thorough understanding of how these elements interact in creating effective waste management solutions.Drawing from six decades of industry experience, the book guides readers through both the technical and policy aspects of nuclear waste management, making complex concepts accessible through clear explanations and practical examples. From vitrification processes to multi-barrier containment systems, it examines current storage technologies while analyzing successful and problematic management approaches through detailed case studies.The text particularly excels in demonstrating how physics, environmental science, and public policy intersect in waste management decisions. The book's systematic progression from immediate containment challenges to long-term storage solutions sets it apart from more politically focused treatments of the subject.By incorporating evidence from Department of Energy reports, international atomic energy agency studies, and geological surveys, it provides a balanced, scientific perspective on crucial debates such as deep geological storage versus above-ground monitoring. This approach makes it an invaluable resource for environmental scientists, energy policymakers, and informed citizens seeking to understand the complexities of nuclear waste management.

    We will all be patients sooner or later. And when we go to the doctor, when we're hurting, we tend to think in terms of cause and condemnation. We often look for relief not only from physical symptoms but also from our self-blame. We want from our doctors kindness under any of its many names: empathy, caring, compassion, humanity. We look for safety and forgiveness. But we forget that doctors, too, are often in need of forgiveness—from their patients and from themselves. No doctor enters the medical profession expecting to be unkind or to make mistakes, but because of the complexity of our current medical system and because doctors are human, they often find themselves acting much less kindly than they would like to. Drawing on his work as a primary care physician and a behavioral scientist, Michael Stein artfully examines the often conflicting goals of patients and their doctors. In those differences, Stein recognizes that kindness should not be a patient’s forbidden or unrealistic expectation. This book leaves us with new knowledge of and insights into what we might hope for, and what might go wrong, or right, in the most intimate clinical moments.

    In Hack to the Future: How World Governments Relentlessly Pursue and Domesticate Hackers, veteran information security professional Emily Crose delivers a deep dive into the history of the United States government's nuanced relationship with hacker culture and the role the latter has played in the former's domestic policy and geopolitics. In the book, you'll learn about significant events that have changed the way the hacking community has been perceived by the public, the state, and other hackers. 
     
     
     
    The author explains how the US government managed to weaponize a subculture widely seen as misanthropic and awkward into a lever of geopolitical power. You'll also discover how the release of the Morris worm and the Melissa virus changed the way hackers were seen and treated in the United States; how different government agencies, including the National Security Agency and NASA, treated—and were treated by—domestic hackers; and how hacking went from being an exclusive hobby for socially awkward nerds to a substantial lever of geopolitical power in just a few decades. 
     
     
     
    Perfect for anyone with an interest in hacking, tech, infosec, and geopolitics, Hack to the Future is a must-listen for those who seek to better their understanding of the history of hacking culture and how we got to where we are today.

    Despite our clever linguistic abilities, humans are spectacularly ill-equipped to comprehend what's happening in the universe. The Complete Guide to Absolutely Everything (Abridged) tells the story of how we came to suppress our monkey minds and perceive the true nature of reality. 
     
     
     
    Geneticist Adam Rutherford and mathematician Hannah Fry guide listeners through time and space, through our bodies and brains, showing how emotions shape our view of reality, how our minds tell us lies, and why a mostly bald and curious ape decided to begin poking at the fabric of the universe. 
     
     
     
    Rutherford and Fry shine as science sleuths, wrestling with some truly head-scratching questions: Where did time come from? Do we have free will? Does my dog love me? Hilarious sidebars present memorable scientific oddities: for example, hypnotized snails, human-sized ants, and the average time it takes most animals to evacuate their bladders. 
     
     
     
    Both rigorous and playful, The Complete Guide to Absolutely Everything (Abridged) is a celebration of the weirdness of the cosmos, the strangeness of humans, and the joys and follies of scientific discovery.
