Sinossi

Fastest Rivers explores the world's most dynamic waterways, revealing how their velocity shapes geology, ecology, and human interaction. The book examines the mechanics of river flow, highlighting the geological impacts of erosion and sediment transport, as well as the unique adaptations of aquatic ecosystems. By understanding these powerful fluvial systems, we gain insights into how rivers shape continents, transport nutrients, and provide resources essential for life.

 
The book begins with fluid mechanics and geomorphology, then progresses to detailed case studies of rivers like the Brahmaputra and Congo, known for their exceptional speeds. Chapters delve into erosion, sediment types, and aquatic life adaptations, also analyzing human impacts like dams and diversions.

 
It reveals that a river's velocity is a key determinant of its ecological and geological significance, influencing species distribution and landscape evolution. This exploration connects hydrology, ecology, and environmental science, offering a unique perspective on the forces shaping our planet.

    In the 1880s, Freud discovered cocaine and became enthusiastic about what was not yet considered a party drug. Favoring the use of cocaine in the treatment of neurasthenia, as an energizer, or as an anesthetic, Freud made a creative and fashionable use of it, heralding practices that our society knows well. Several surprising texts are gathered here on cocaine. Freud recounts the use of coca in history, particularly in South America, from where it was imported. In Cocaine Addiction and Cocaine Phobia, the inventor of psychoanalysis defended coca against its accusers as a dangerous product. Finally, in the letters to Martha Bernays, his future wife, we discover an intimate and loving Freud, telling how he escaped boring dinners thanks to his dear magic substance.

    Against Technoableism -...

    When Ashley Shew became a self-described "hard-of-hearing chemobrained amputee with Crohn's disease and tinnitus," there was no returning to "normal." Suddenly well-meaning people called her an "inspiration" while grocery shopping or viewed her as a needy recipient of technological wizardry. Most disabled people don't want what the abled assume they want—nor are they generally asked. 
     
     
     
    In vibrant prose, Shew shows how we can create better narratives and more accessible futures by drawing from the insights of the cross-disability community. To forge a more equitable world, Shew argues that we must eliminate "technoableism"—the harmful belief that technology is a "solution" for disability; that the disabled simply await being "fixed" by technological wizardry; that making society more accessible and equitable is somehow a lesser priority. 
     
     
     
    This badly needed introduction to disability expertise considers mobility devices, medical infrastructure, neurodivergence, and the relationship between disability and race. The future, Shew points out, is surely disabled—whether through changing climate, new diseases, or even through space travel. It's time we looked closely at how we all think about disability technologies and learn to envision disabilities not as liabilities, but as skill sets enabling all of us to navigate a challenging world.

    The Superluminal Universe -...

    The Superluminal Universe reveals, for the first time in English, the incredible insights of French quantum physicist Professor Régis Dutheil. Thanks to the development of particle accelerators, physicists are now able to propel particles (tachyons) at a speed close to that of light (300,000 km per second). At these extreme speeds, the laws that govern our universe no longer apply. Professor Dutheil's work has shown that the theory of relativity is not incompatible with that of tachyons, provided that we allow for the possibility of a double reality: that alongside our sub-luminous universe, which follows the law of time, is a superluminal universe. This second reality is another universe, complementary to and symmetrical with ours, governed by superluminal space-time in which light moves 300,000 km/s to infinity. 
     
     
     
    In the superluminal universe, everything is instantaneous. It is possible to conceive of a superluminal being capable of moving from one end of space to the other. This parallel universe consists only of information and consciousness: all information (past, present, future) and the consciousness of all humanity. Professor Dutheil's thesis joins the intuitions of ancient philosophers with current quantum physics to blow our current notions of time, of past and present, of the nature of consciousness, of birth and death right out of the water.
