Cox P: Private Life of the Atom

Private Life of the Atom

'Highly engaging' MIKE BERNERS-LEE 'Fascinating and insightful' MARK MIODOWNIK 'A stimulating and affable overview of how major feats of engineering can help the world beat the climate crisis' NEW STATESMAN __________ We rarely think about the energy systems that prop up our existence. With hot water, lighting and digital entertainment all available at the flick of a switch, it's easy to underestimate the vast global network that makes these things possible. In Power Up engineer Yasmin Ali takes us on a journey across the globe to reveal the bigger picture, from solar farms shimmering in the desert to power stations hidden deep in the mountains. We discover where we get energy from, how it is moved and used around the world - and why we need to understand the whole system if we want to transition towards a clean, green future. Power Up is a definitive picture of the intricate world that humanity has built, and a rallying cry to face the challenges of climate change using the power at our fingertips.

A Companion for Life’s Twists & Turns

Open When…

A profound and provocative journey through the human body from the award-winning writer, broadcaster and surgeon. What does it mean to live in a body? For Gabriel Weston, there was always something missing from the anatomy she was taught at medical school. Medicine teaches us how a body functions, but it doesn't help us navigate the reality of living in one. As she became a surgeon, a mother, and ultimately a patient herself, Weston found herself grappling with the gap between scientific knowledge and unfathomable complexity of human experience. In this captivating exploration of the body, Weston dissolves the boundaries that usually divide surgeon and patient, pushing beyond the limit of what science has to tell us about who we are. Focusing on our individual organs, not just under the intense spotlight of the operating theatre, but in the central role they play in the stories of our lives, a fuller and more human picture of our bodies emerges: more fragile, frightening and miraculous than we could have imagined. Intimate, penetrating and original, Alive is an anatomy like no other, about our bodies and bonds, the richness and brevity of existence, and the thread of mortality that connect us all.

An Alternative Anatomy

Alive

A deep dive into the power and science of optimism that will change the way you think for good, by astrophysicist-turned-journalist Sumit Paul-Choudhury

Optimism, irrational though it might be, is central to the human psyche: it seems to give us an advantage both in everyday life and in the evolutionary race. What does Ernest Shackleton's Antarctic expedition have in common with the chicken that crossed the road? Or James Baldwin's campaign for civil rights with the development of AI? Or even Crossrail and George Bush's 'mission accomplished'? The Bright Side makes a vital and transformative new argument: that optimism is not only the natural state of humanity, but an essential one. Without optimism we would never have survived the unpredictable - and often hostile - world we evolved into. Yet optimism is not reserved for times of extremity. Its benefits manifest throughout our everyday lives: our relationships, careers, bodies and minds. And it will play a critical role in overcoming the challenges of the twenty-first century. In this book, astrophysicist-turned-journalist Sumit-Paul Choudhury offers practical suggestions on what it really takes to be an optimist today and, in doing so, provides a powerful manifesto for hope and a much-needed new perspective on our prospects. He shows how, by embracing action, imagination and possibility, we can find a path to the bright side, even - perhaps especially - when the future seems dark. Both realistic and revolutionary, The Bright Side is a guidebook for troubled times that will make you re-evaluate your habits and outlook.

Why Optimists Have the Power to Change the World

The Bright Side

"A wonderfully accessible overview of just how easily bias can creep into science, together with solid, practical advice on how to challenge it. A valuable resource for researchers, physicians, and policymakers."--Angela Saini, author of Superior: The Return of Race Science "Shoumita Dasgupta presents a clear, comprehensive call for genomic researchers and health care providers to learn more about and do better at mitigating bias in medicine. We are responsible for ensuring that rapidly evolving genomic technologies and therapies are equitably accessible to all."--Michelle Takemoto, Founder and Executive Director, Alliance for Genomic Justice "A thought-provoking, essential read for those in health care, research, scientific education, and policy. Dasgupta provides a solid foundation to reflect on the roots of our harmful biases in labeling humans, laying a hopeful path forward towards anti-racism, equity, and inclusivity."--Robin Bennett, Director of the Genetic Counseling Graduate Program at the University of Washington and author of The Practical Guide to the Genetic Family History "Dasgupta challenges the flawed logic of race-based medicine, making the obvious clear--that race is not written in our DNA. She masterfully uncovers how systemic biases disproportionately affect Black and Brown communities' health outcomes, calling geneticists like myself to rethink how we present and frame research we conduct. Her work pushes us to take a deeper look at our assumptions, urging a renewed commitment to equity and responsible genetics research."--Janina Jeff, population geneticist and creator and host of the award-winning podcast In Those Genes

Change can often seem like an impossible task, but this practical book will help you put it into perspective. With guidance from two experts, you''ll recognise the behaviours and thoughts that hold you back, and will develop skills to think more positively, act more calmly and feel better about yourself. A new and updated edition, this book is full of activities and experiments to explore and challenge, stories and exercises to provide perspective, and a clear framework to encourage and guide you, using the same tools employed by CBT practitioners. The authors'' friendly and supportive approach will help you learn to manage recurrences of negative thinking and behaviours, and to develop strong coping strategies. CBT incorporates the latest therapies and research, including ACT and mindfulness, and explicitly addresses problem areas like insomnia and depression. This edition includes a new chapter focusing on practical advice about making changes and the principles of T.E.A.M-CBT.

How to Change

A Practical Guide to CBT

This is a comprehensive guide to dielectric elastomer composites (DECs), which play an integral role in new electromechanically active smart-material technologies. Introducing the basic concepts behind DECs, the book is accessible to readers at all levels. It demonstrates how to implement practical problem-solving methods through nonlinear continuum mechanics and also discusses fibre-reinforced anisotropic DE composites and the electromechanically coupled behaviour of anisotropic fibre-reinforced DEs. Using practical examples throughout, it proposes models which utilise the strain energy function, nonlinear electro-elasticity, and nonlinear continuum mechanics. It presents clear guidelines for creating practical nonlinear finite element code, and introduces the reader to hyperelasticity. The book will be an accessible reference guide for students, researchers and engineers in the field of mechanical engineering, bioengineering, materials science, aeronautics, and robotics.
