Sinopsis

Rainwater Collection Systems addresses escalating water scarcity by exploring rainwater harvesting as a sustainable water solution. This book guides readers through designing, implementing, and maintaining effective systems, emphasizing water conservation and environmental sustainability. It highlights how rainwater harvesting reduces reliance on traditional supplies, lowering energy consumption tied to water treatment, and helps mitigate stormwater runoff, offering a historical context from ancient practices to modern applications.

 
The book provides a complete understanding of rainwater harvesting, progressing from basic principles of capturing and storing rainwater to advanced filtration techniques like UV disinfection. It examines various storage options, including cisterns, and dedicates a section to system design, covering catchment area calculations and plumbing. Real-world case studies illustrate the practical application of these systems.

 
What sets this book apart is its practical focus, providing step-by-step instructions and diagrams for implementing effective rainwater harvesting solutions. Supported by environmental engineering research and hydrologic data, the book demonstrates how well-designed systems can contribute to water security and reduce environmental impact. It connects environmental science with civil engineering, public health, and sustainable development, demonstrating rainwater harvesting's impact on the environment and public health. The book addresses controversies, such as water quality concerns, presenting balanced perspectives and evidence-based solutions.

  • Aztec Astronomy and Astrology: The History of the Aztec’s Measurements of the Planets and Stars - cover

    Aztec Astronomy and Astrology:...

    Nearly 500 years after the Spanish conquered their mighty empire, the Aztecs are often remembered today for their major capital, Tenochtitlan, as well as being fierce conquerors of the Valley of Mexico who often engaged in human sacrifice rituals. Unlike the Maya, the Aztecs are not widely viewed or remembered with nuance, in part because their own leader burned extant Aztec writings and rewrote a mythologized history explaining his empire’s dominance less than a century before the Spanish arrived. Naturally, Cortes and other Spaniards depicted the Aztecs as savages greatly in need of conversion to Catholicism. While the Maya are remembered for their astronomy, numeral system, and calendar, the Aztecs have primarily been remembered in a far narrower way, despite continuing to be a source of pride to Mexicans through the centuries. 
    	For the Aztec, astronomy was not a purely scientific pursuit but intimately linked to religious, mythological, and ideological elements that were of the highest importance. The celestial realm held a sacred nature, as did the many gods and goddesses that dwelt there, so for all Mesoamerican cultures, astronomy was a fundamental part of their daily lives. Thus, astronomy was present in their calendars, religion, and even agriculture, and in close relation to astronomy, the concept of time was also an essential part of their worldview. The Aztec recorded many of the astronomical events they observed in codices and hieroglyphic inscriptions, but the main evidence of their deep astronomical knowledge comes from their calendar system. This information was then used to plan the orientation of buildings and ceremonial centers, which were aligned to sunrises or sunsets corresponding to special dates, such as solstices or equinoxes. Observational calendars were also used to schedule agricultural activities, as well as rituals, festivals, and celebrations, on an annual cycle.

    This book bundle explores one of the universe’s most mysterious and fundamental forces: gravity. In Gravity’s Ghost, uncover how this invisible force holds galaxies together and sculpts the structure of the cosmos—yet still defies complete understanding. Discover how gravity bends light, alters time, and reveals itself in the deepest corners of space. 
    In Gravity’s Hidden Partner, the story shifts toward the unknown allies that amplify gravity’s strange behavior—like dark matter and dark energy. Scientists suspect that 95% of the universe is invisible, yet these unseen forces help explain anomalies in galactic rotation and expansion. Could something even more exotic be at play behind the scenes? 
    Finally, Light’s Opponent looks at the eternal cosmic struggle between gravity and light. Learn how gravity can trap light in black holes, distort it through gravitational lensing, and stretch its path across the universe. With every discovery, we realize just how much gravity shapes not only the cosmos—but our understanding of reality itself.

    Mammals, the dominant group of warm-blooded vertebrates on Earth today, have a deep evolutionary history that stretches back over 300 million years. Their origins can be traced to the synapsids, a group of amniotes that first appeared in the late Carboniferous period. These early synapsids were distinct from reptiles and birds, possessing a single temporal fenestra, an opening in the skull that allowed for stronger jaw muscles. Over millions of years, synapsids diversified into a variety of forms, some of which gave rise to the therapsids, the direct ancestors of modern mammals. 
    During the Permian period, therapsids became the dominant terrestrial vertebrates, developing more advanced characteristics such as differentiated teeth, a more upright posture, and improved metabolic efficiency. However, the Permian-Triassic extinction event, the most severe mass extinction in Earth's history, led to a significant decline in their diversity. Those that survived continued to evolve, giving rise to cynodonts, a subgroup of therapsids that displayed increasingly mammal-like features. Cynodonts had more complex teeth, enhanced jaw mechanics, and possibly even fur, adaptations that would later define true mammals.
