Book Description
From the first cavemen to light a fire to the elusive dark energy in outer space Know It All Energy explores energy in all its forms. The Know-It-All series takes a revolutionary approach to learning about the subjects you really feel you should understand but have never gotten around to studying. Each title selects a popular topic and dissects it into the 50 most significant ideas at its heart. Each idea, no matter how complex, is explained in 300 words and one picture, all digestible in under a minute. As a phenomenon that resides everywhere and in everything, energy is best understood by example. Exploring energy shows how it cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed—and how plankton and other ancient ocean-dwelling organisms can be used to power your car. Reducing the subject to its essential areas, Know-It-All Energy charts fascinating and fundamental topics, from the nuclear fusion reactor at the heart of the sun and civilization’s discovery of our first hands-on energy source in fire almost 400,000 years ago, to the elusive dark energy which makes up most of the content of the universe.

Energy
Author: Jose Goldemberg
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199812918
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
Without a doubt, the topic of energy--from coal, oil, and nuclear to geothermal, solar and wind--is one of the most pressing across the globe. It is of paramount importance to policy makers, economists, environmentalists, and industry as they consider which technologies to invest in, how to promote use of renewable energy sources, and how to plan for dwindling reserves of non-renewable energy. In Energy: What Everyone Needs to Know®, José Goldemberg, a nuclear physicist who has been hailed by Time magazine as one of the world's top "leaders and visionaries on the environment," takes readers through the basics of the world energy system, its problems, and the technical as well as non-technical solutions to the most pressing energy problems. Addressing the issues in a Q-and-A format, Goldemberg answers such questions as: What are wind, wave, and geothermal energy? What are the problems of nuclear waste disposal? What is acid rain? What is the greenhouse gas effect? What is Carbon Capture and Storage? What are smart grids? What is the Kyoto Protocol? What is "cap and trade"? The book sheds light on the role of population growth in energy consumption, renewable energy resources, the amount of available energy reserves (and when they will run out), geopolitical issues, environmental problems, the frequency of environmental disasters, energy efficiency, new technologies, and solutions to changing consumption patterns. It will be the first place to look for information on the vital topic of energy. What Everyone Needs to Know® is a registered trademark of Oxford University Press.

Pages : 111
Book Description
The contents of this book are all based on the true story of an experience that happened to two ordinary people, a story that truly seems unbelievable. It is a story of two people who met in midlife, fell in love, and got married. Now all this seems to be pretty ordinary, but in this case, their coming together was anything but ordinary. The beginning of this marriage triggered a most unusual eventan event that changed their beliefs and lives forever. This is a story of a person whose door to the next dimension was involuntarily opened just as she was about to be married. This event not only caused her to come into contact with a great spiritual entity but also transformed her into a great medium who could contact spiritual entities who had passed from this earth into another existence. These spiritual entities could contact her with a clarity that defies explanation. The opening of this psychic door was not done by accident but had a very deliberate purpose. This purpose came with a warning and at the same time came with a call for help.
