Sinossi

"Rainwater Collection" explores the age-old practice of rainwater harvesting as a key solution to water scarcity, sustainable agriculture, and overall environmental conservation. From ancient civilizations like the Indus Valley to modern applications, the book illustrates how capturing rainwater ensures food security and societal resilience. Intriguingly, some ancient rainwater harvesting systems rival modern techniques in their simplicity and effectiveness. The book emphasizes that, amidst increasing populations and climate change, rainwater harvesting offers a decentralized and eco-friendly alternative to depleting conventional water sources.

 
Divided into three parts, the book first examines the history of rainwater harvesting, then progresses to its agricultural applications, and concludes with modern water conservation strategies. Case studies demonstrate how rainwater harvesting can boost crop yields and reduce dependence on environmentally damaging irrigation systems. The book highlights the potential of both simple household setups and large-scale urban projects to reduce water demand and mitigate the effects of climate change.

 
It targets environmental scientists, agricultural engineers, and policymakers, offering a practical guide to understanding and implementing this vital water management strategy.

    This is a book about TRUTH—and all the ways we try to avoid it—from the bestselling author of Humans: A Brief History of How We F*cked It All Up.We live in a “post-truth” world, we’re told. But was there ever really a golden age of truth-telling? Or have people been lying, fibbing and just plain bullsh*tting since the beginning of time?Tom Phillips, editor of a leading independent fact-checking organization, deals with this question every day. In Truth, he tells the story of how we humans have spent history lying to each other—and ourselves—about everything from business to politics to plain old geography. Along the way, he chronicles the world’s oldest customer service complaint, the Great Moon Hoax of 1835 and the surprisingly dishonest career of Benjamin Franklin.Sharp, witty and with a clear-eyed view of humanity’s checkered past, Truth reveals why people lie—and how we can cut through the bullsh*t.

    Mastering Scrum Master Interviews: 200 Situational Questions and Answers 
    Practical Insights and Expert Answers for Tackling Scrum Master Role Interviews, 
    This book will make you a winner at Scrum Master role interviews by providing you with 200 carefully selected situational questions along with detailed answers. Each question will face the real-world challenges which come up in front of a Scrum Master. Questions are designed in a manner that they will encapsulate the key challenges including team dynamics, stakeholder engagement, Agile transformation, and organizational change. With comprehensive explanations, this course empowers you to understand the logic behind each answer, and therefore, you can develop your own personalized responses for the interviews. Whether it is an aspiring Scrum Master or someone looking forward to refining their interview skills, this course equips one with the insights to succeed. 
    There is no one right answer to most of these questions. The answers are given from the personal experience, but the interviewer may be coming from a different point of view based on their own problems and history. The purpose is not to memorize word for word but to grasp the logic and reasoning that the answers are based upon so that you can adapt and craft your own responses in the interview. 
    We have given you many answers so that you can choose through them and thus perhaps only recall a few from your interview but come together to give a brilliant answer. So, now, let's discuss the questions.

  • Important Astronauts Cosmonauts and Other Spaceflight Personalities - cover

    Important Astronauts Cosmonauts...

    This book is the eighth volume of “The Living in Space Series”. Each volume focuses on one particular technology of living in space. 
    This book covers the Astronauts, Cosmonauts, and other individuals who were responsible for some of the biggest space adventures to date. 
    When I was a kid growing up in the 1960s my friends and I were always listening to the latest news about the Mercury Seven and their latest adventures flying into space. 
    As of 2020 less than 600 persons have gone into space. These people have pioneered many different types of space activities and are responsible for many legends. 
    In 1985 while working for Hewlett Packard I got myself transferred to work at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas for a couple of years. It was incredible for me because I got to see the manned space flight center up close, walk inside of Space mockups, and meet many astronauts. In fact it was David Wolf—who later became an astronaut who took me up for rides in his Pitt Special Acrobatic plane (where I got really sick) which convinced me to get my own pilots license. I even applied for the astronaut corps but didn’t make it. 
    I also knew Julie Resnick who was killed in the Challenger explosion. It was very impressive attending the Challenger public funeral where President Reagan spoke. 
    As a lifelong space buff, I’m very happy to write this book series and introduce the key players here. In this book we will profile those persons who have been the star players in man’s exploration of space, and who have made major space contributions over the years.

    This binaural audio recording features the Northern Cardinal birdsong recorded in its natural habitat in Iowa’s Yellow River State Forest near a delicate babbling river stream together with other birds, insects, and ground creatures. Other birdsongs include: Eastern Whippoorwill, Song Sparrow, Gray Catbird and American Robin in background. The Northern Cardinal is an iconic passerine bird species. It has a unique red-colored plumage that is highly ornamental and makes it easily identifiable among other avian species. Its striking appearance, along with its conspicuous vocalizations, often make it the focus of scientific study.
