Synopsis

Tidal Wave Impact offers a comprehensive exploration of how tidal waves shape coastal regions, influence climates, and transform habitats. Diving into the geophysical dynamics, the book highlights the importance of understanding tidal wave mechanics, detailing how the gravitational forces of the moon and sun, ocean bathymetry, and coastal geomorphology impact these natural phenomena. It further investigates ecological ramifications, examining how tidal waters create unique, specialized intertidal habitats and influence water quality.

 
The book emphasizes the increasing pressures faced by coastal regions due to rising sea levels and climate change, which intensify the impact of tidal waves. It argues that understanding tidal wave dynamics and their ecological effects is essential for effective coastal management, informing infrastructure design, land-use planning, and adaptive strategies. Through case studies of salt marshes, mangrove forests, and sandy beaches, Tidal Wave Impact synthesizes findings and explores practical applications, such as coastal defenses and early warning systems.

 
Integrating ecological and engineering perspectives, the book begins with foundational concepts of tidal wave generation and propagation, progressing through detailed case studies and culminating in practical applications for coastal management. It distinguishes itself by providing insights into the ecological resilience of coastal habitats and engineering solutions for coastal protection, making it a valuable resource for scientists, policymakers, and coastal communities.

Evolutionary Intelligence - How...

W. Russell Neuman

It is natural for us to fear artificial intelligence. But does Siri really want to kill us? Perhaps we are falling into the trap of projecting human traits onto the machines we might build. In Evolutionary Intelligence, Neuman offers a surprisingly positive vision in which computational intelligence compensates for the well-recognized limits of human judgment, improves decision making, and actually increases our agency. Neuman takes the listener on an exciting, fast-paced ride, all the while making a convincing case about a revolution in computationally augmented human intelligence. 
 
 
 
Neuman argues that, just as the wheel made us mobile and machines made us stronger, the migration of artificial intelligence from room-sized computers to laptops to our watches, smart glasses, and even smart contact lenses will transform day-to-day human decision making. If intelligence is the capacity to match means with ends, then augmented intelligence can offer the ability to adapt to changing environments as we face the ultimate challenge of long-term survival. Tapping into a global interest in technology's potential impacts on society, economics, and culture, Evolutionary Intelligence demonstrates that our future depends on our ability to computationally compensate for the limitations of a human cognitive system that has only recently graduated from hunting and gathering.
