Autowala P: Energy Policy, Consumer
Behavior, and Solar Photovoltaic System

Energy Policy, Consumer Behavior, and Solar Photovoltaic Systems in the United States

'Book of the Year' as chosen by The Conversation'Disconcerting . . . a disturbing and important book' NEW SCIENTIST'Smart and wonderfully readable' NEW YORK TIMESThe bad science and sinister ideas behind Silicon Valley's foolish obsession with immortality, AI paradise and limitless growth.Tech billionaires have decided that they should determine our futures for us. According to Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Sam Altman and more, the only good future for humanity is one powered by technology: trillions of humans living in space, functionally immortal, served by superintelligent AIs.In More Everything Forever, scientist and writer Adam Becker investigates these wildly implausible and often profoundly immoral visions of tomorrow to reveal why, in reality, there is no good evidence that they will, or should, come to pass. The giants of Silicon Valley claim that their ideas are based on science, but the truth is darker: they come from a jumbled mix of shallow futurism and racist pseudoscience. And behind these fanciful visions of space colonies and digital immortality is a cynical power grab, at the expense of essential work spent on solving real problems like the climate crisis.More Everything Forever exposes the powerful myths that dominate Silicon Valley, challenging us to see how foolish, and dangerous, these visions of the future are.

More Everything Forever

A groundbreaking new framework for business leaders and policymakers In Passionomics, Raja Rajamannar introduces an original intellectual framework that equips CEOs, CMOs, strategists, boards, and policymakers with a new lens for driving growth, innovation, and enduring customer loyalty. Where behavioral economics examines how individuals make decisions, Passionomics reveals how collective passion - the synchronized intensity of millions of people acting in concert - moves markets, reshapes industries, and creates extraordinary value for the organizations and institutions that learn to harness it. Rajamannar makes the case through vivid, real-world phenomena every leader recognizes but few have truly decoded: the economic waves generated by a Taylor Swift tour, the industry-wide momentum of Formula 1, the societal mobilization of the FIFA World Cup and the Olympic Games. These are not anecdotes. They are windows into a dynamic that, once understood, becomes a deliberate strategic advantage - one that transforms how companies build brands, design products, earn loyalty, and compete, and how policymakers shape economies, cities, and public life. Business leaders and policymakers will discover: <ul> <li>A new strategic framework - Passionomics - that explains how collective intensity operates as a distinct and powerful dynamic separate from individual behavior</li> <li>Why passion is a renewable source of innovation, loyalty, and growth - and why the organizations and institutions that ignore it are leaving extraordinary value on the table</li> <li>How to recognize, cultivate, and harness collective passion inside organizations, brands, entire categories, and public institutions</li> <li>Case studies from sports, entertainment, culture, and commerce that reveal the architecture of passion-driven growth</li> <li>A practical lens for boards, CEOs, CMOs, senior leaders, and policymakers who want to move beyond conventional playbooks and unlock step-change performance</li> </ul> Passionomics is essential reading for business leaders and policymakers who sense that something critical is missing from the standard strategic toolkit - and who want a rigorous, original framework for building companies, brands, institutions, and economies that win in ways others cannot replicate.

The case for nuclear energy as the foundation of the AI revolution - and our future In The Smiling Atom: How We Learned to Love Nuclear Energy, and Why You Should, Too, physicist-entrepreneur Stefano Buono and journalist Peter Vanham argue that the AI-driven "fourth industrial revolution" depends on a nuclear energy renaissance. Combining science, history, business strategy, and personal narrative, their dual perspective reframes nuclear technology as a future-facing solution for clean energy, medical innovation, and broad-based prosperity. The Smiling Atom weaves two distinct threads: Buono's scientific journey from a decade of research at CERN with Nobel laureate Carlo Rubbia to founding pharmaceutical startup Advanced Accelerator Applications, sold to Novartis for $3.9 billion, and now leading next-generation reactor company newcleo; alongside Vanham's evolution from a nuclear-skeptic to informed believer. Together they deliver technical authority and narrative credibility. Readers will also discover: <ul> <li>How nuclear energy can be a solution to the massive and growing power demands of artificial intelligence infrastructure - without driving up prices for everyone else</li> <li>The science of nuclear waste transmutation and next-generation reactor designs that address longstanding safety and environmental concerns</li> <li>Buono's path from CERN physicist to founding a pharmaceutical startup sold to Novartis for $3.9 billion</li> <li>How well-known anti-nuclear movements in Europe and North America shaped public opinion and why that consensus is now shifting across society - and especially Gen Z</li> <li>The role nuclear medicine plays in healthcare innovation and why energy and medical applications share common scientific foundations</li> </ul> Written for business, finance, policy, climate, and technology audiences in Europe and the United States, The Smiling Atom offers a persuasive, evidence-based argument for readers seeking to understand why nuclear energy has reemerged as central to economic growth, clean power, and technological progress.

World Scientific Lecture Notes In Economics And Policy

This book attempts to understand the operation and properties of 'market economies'. We do this by carefully examining, refining and in some cases extending the major theorems that Microeconomics has established in response to the Walrasian conjecture. We critically evaluate theorems and results, that assert the existence, uniqueness, stability, optimality and empirical relevance of Walrasian equilibrium states. As a result of our work, we attempt to comment on the wisdom of recommending that socio-economic systems operate as a collection of deregulated competitive markets.

Contributions to Economics

This book is of interest to economists working in applied demand analysis, marketing professionals studying product substitution and complementarity, and policymakers evaluating the effects of taxes, subsidies, and regulatory interventions on consumer behavior. Applying the analytical framework on the internal structure of consumption, this book explores how different categories of consumer spending interact and how these relationships shape the broader structure of consumption.The analyses focus on timely and policy-relevant issues, including the distributional impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, inflation, the implementation of safe drinking water standards (with particular attention to low-income households), and the potential effects of carbon taxes on consumer expenditures.A key strength of the framework lies in its ability to derive comprehensive arrays of own- and cross-price elasticities from household expenditure survey data—even in the absence of direct price information.

Plate Heat Exchanger Enhancement Techniques: in Support of the Energy Transition and a Circular Economy provides fundamental knowledge on the applications of the plate heat exchanger (PHE) and how it can be optimized to make energy conversion more efficient. In addition, it introduces relevant studies that explain the heat transfer mechanism of the PHE, its design, and how developing more compact and evolved heat exchangers contributes to a sustainable, cleaner, and more energy-efficient future. Researchers, scientists, engineers, professionals, and students working in nanotechnology, materials science, and sustainability will find this volume valuable to their work.
