What is more energy-efficient for my thermostat?
My roommate and I were debating between these two things, and both of us are convinced we are right.
He says that it’s more energy-efficient just leave the thermostat on the same temperature all the time as it saves the energy it takes the furnace to reset.
I say that it’s more efficient to adjust the temperature and turn the thermostat off when we aren’t home because then it’s not running when it’s not needed.
Which of us is right? Or are we both wrong? I’d like to know, but please cite a source if you can. Thank you!

The Energy to Teach $3.95 "Graves offers an at-once practical, philosophical, and positive framework for making our teaching days rich and rewarding rather than merely frustrating and wearying." – The Quarterly Over the course of a year you and thousands of other teachers will spendcountless hours with children and experience the full range of emotionassociated with parenting. Every day you will be second-guessed by parents, administrators, and pundits who have never taught. Standardized tests will bemandated that try to govern the teaching transactions you make with children. It’s no wonder that many teachers these days are feeling drained and it’s nosurprise that Don Graves is ready to offer his uncommon insight, unwaveringsupport, and unbounded hope for the future. "The idea for "The Energy toTeach,"" Don relates, "began with the startling contrast I notedbetween much of the fatigue in the profession and the promised energy incurriculum." This led to eighteen months of extensive interviews, witheducators and others across the country, beginning with the questions: Whatgives you energy, what takes energy away, and what, for you, is a waste oftime? Based on these interviews – plus Don’s extensive experience as a teacher andresearcher – "The Energy to Teach" offers groundbreaking insight on howhighly effective teachers deal with emotional demands, and how they gain helpand support from their colleagues and administrators. It explains what givesthem energy, how they handle energy-draining situations, and how they cope withthis never-ending emotional roller coaster. What’s more, Don offers proven-effective techniques. You’ll discover how tofind out exactly when energy is added, expended, or wasted; conserve moreenergy; build energy with colleagues; induce an energy surge when it’s urgentlyneeded; transform energy-draining situations into energy-giving events; andmuch more. Just as important, you’ll find comfort and encouragement fromsomeone who for two decades has served as a wise and compassionate mentor tothousands of educators.

The Energy of Nature $3.95 Energy is crucial for events of every kind, in this world or any other. Without energy, nothing would ever happen. Nothing would move and there would be no life. The sun wouldn’t shine, winds wouldn’t blow, rivers wouldn’t flow, trees wouldn’t grow, birds wouldn’t fly, and fish wouldn’t swim; indeed no material object, living or dead, could even exist. In spite of all this, energy is seldom considered a part of what we call "nature." In "The Energy of Nature, " E. C. Pielou explores energy’s role in nature–how and where it originates, what it does, and what becomes of it. Drawing on a wide range of scientific disciplines, from physics, chemistry, and biology to all the earth sciences, as well as on her own lifelong experience as a naturalist, Pielou opens our eyes to the myriad ways energy and its transfer affect the earth and its inhabitants. Along the way we learn how energy is delivered to the earth from the sun; how it causes weather, winds, and tides; how it shapes the earth through mountain building and erosion; how it is captured and used by living things; how it is stored in chemical bonds; how nuclear energy is released; how it heats the unseen depths of the planet and is explosively revealed in the turmoil of earthquakes and volcanoes; how energy manifests itself in magnetism and electromagnetic waves; how we harness it to fuel human societies; and much more. Filled with fascinating information and and helpful illustrations (hand drawn by the author), "The Energy of Nature" is fun, readable, and instructive. Science buffs of all ages will be delighted. "A luminous, inquiring, and thoughtful exploration of Earth’s energetics."–Jocylyn McDowell, "Discovery " |

No More Excuses $5.23 BOOK SUMMARY Every Book of the Judeo-Christian Bible is summarized in order to provide a Biblically accurate and easily read educational resource for anyone who has the desire to intelligently study and understand the Word of God. This unique quick-study cliffs note-type tool covers God’s will and plan for mankind; the people God chose to receive His Law, preserve and spread His Word, and through whose descendants a Messiah would come; the history of the world’s kings and their Empires from their beginning and up to their prophesied end; the Gospel message of the life, death, resurrection, ascension, and second coming of Jesus Christ that was told first to the Jews and then to the Gentiles by His apostles; the Church age; the future of those who either trust in God and/or His Son or reject Them; and God’s plan for man’s greatest deceiver, Satan, and for his followers. AUTOBIOGRAPHY Because God had for countless years instilled within me the belief that everyone should have the opportunity of getting to know his Creator and His plans for mankind, He encouraged me to use my editorial experience in science and languages and gave me the energy and words to prepare a summary of every Book of the Bible, over a 10-year period, for individuals who do not read the Word of God because it is too difficult for them to understand. I used a word and verse study approach, various translations of the Bible, and a summarizing procedure, which provided non-denominational cliffs-note type Biblically sound summaries for studying the most exciting and both scientifically and prophetically accurate book every written, the Judeo-Christian Bible. My prayer is that it will be used to excite, encourage, andenhance the world’s thirst and hunger for learning that there is absolute truth and that it is found only in the Judeo-Christian Bible. |

Energy Audits: A Workbook for Energy Management in Buildings $50.44 Energy efficiency is today a crucial topic in the built environment – for both designers and managers of buildings. This increased interest is driven by a combination of new regulations and directives within the EU and worldwide to combat global warming. All buildings now must now acquire and display an EPC (energy performance certificate), a rating similar to the A-G rating given to white goods. But in order to understand how to be more efficient in energy use, you need first to understand the mechanisms of both energy requirements and how energy is used in buildings. "Energy Audits: a workbook for energy management in buildings" tackles the fundamental principles of thermodynamics through day-to-day engineering concepts and helps students understand why energy losses occur and how they can be reduced. It provides the tools to measure process efficiency and sustainability in power and heating applications, helping engineers to recognize why energy losses occur and how they can be reduced utilizing familiar thermodynamic principles. The author describes the sources of energy available today; explains how energy is used in buildings – and how energy is lost – and how this can be controlled and reduced. Investments in energy efficiency are considered for a number of case studies conducted on real buildings The book explains the theory; illustrates it with case studies and worked examples; and then tests students’ understanding with tutorial problems. This is an invaluable resource for students on engineering and building courses where energy management is now a core topic. |

Energy Independence: An Insider’s View of Nuclear Energy $15.94 What will we do when the oil is gone? Fossil fuels power our modern society. We are blessed with every modern convenience imaginable. Many Americans are enjoying the "American Dream." Life for most of us is pretty good. Recently we have experienced some terrorist attacks that are designed to destroy our lives as well as our lifestyle. The attacks on 9-11 were the worst. In addition to these terrorists attacks we have experienced a disruption in our petroleum supply. This disruption in our oil supply was actually just a hiccup, yet this hiccup caused a rather dramatic increase in the price of fuel. It is frightening to note that the Arab nations who supply us with petroleum either have direct ties to terrorism or have large numbers of people within their borders who do. It is quite clear that we need another energy source. Petroleum is a limited resource. With petroleum supplies on the decrease and with terrorism and hostile feelings toward the United States on the increase, it is only a matter of time before we experience some major hardships caused by our dependence on Arabian oil. We need to start now to loosen our dependence on foreign oil. The only source of power that can free us is Nuclear Energy. Most Americans are afraid of nuclear technology and do not trust people who support this technology. Who should you trust to advise you on energy matters? Who would you trust more, a filthy rich Arab Sheik who is sympathetic to terrorist causes or a loyal American who has worked in the nuclear industry for 16 years? When I worked for the government, I had a security clearance. The U.S. government had faith in my integrity; maybe you can trust me too. No doubt, you have heard many negative things about Nuclear Energy. I would like to tell you the good things about Nuclear Energy. I think that you will discover, as I have, that the good far outweighs the bad. |

Perfect Power: How the Microgrid Revolution Will Unleash Cleaner, Greener, and More Abundant Energy $3.95 What’s the solution to the world’s growing energy problem? PERFECT POWER Electric usage is rising. Fuel costs are rocketing. Blackouts are happening more frequently. Why? Because our electrical power system–built on a vast network of resources including nuclear energy, natural gas, water, and coal–has become woefully outdated, increasingly expensive, and dangerously fragile. We need to change the current system, and we need to do it now. Written by business visionary and former Motorola chairman Robert Galvin, "Perfect Power" shows us how to create a "perfect" system that can deliver power where needed, at an astonishing reliability standard of 99.9999999 percent. By super-charging the "Six Sigma" concepts that Galvin developed as the founder and CEO at Motorola, we can Meet the energy reliability and quality needs of the Digital Age Generate new goods and services that create jobs, empower consumers, and lower energy cost Eliminate wasteful spending on our electrical infrastructure that can be used for peak power needs Facilitate local, regional, and, ultimately, national energy independence Fundamentally reduce the impact of energy on the environment Invest in the microgrid revolution Energy providers and policy makers will reinvent today’s centralized power systems and integrate them with new, efficient "microgrids." Investors and entrepreneurs will spot tomorrow’s hottest technologies. Consumers will demand change from "the powers that be." And environmentalists will take advantage of cleaner, greener energy sources available. We have the power to fulfill our energy needs, fix our old systems, forge ahead with new ideas, and fuel our dreams. It’s "Perfect Power." |

The Final Energy Crisis $3.46 This book explores the crisis in fossil fuels. Oil, gas and coal are precious resources that define modern life. Without them, mass-produced food and clothing, and international travel and cars, become rare or impossible. Yet our reliance on fossil fuels is responsible for massive environmental damage, and increasing economic and political instability. Control over oil resources has been a major factor in several wars. The price of oil is also key to world economic stability. Yet our supply of oil is limited. As with other fossil fuels, the more we burn, the more damage we do – the number one cause behind global warming is the increase in carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels.The international range of contributors to this book provide a truly global perspective on the dangers inherent in our over-consumption of oil, gas and coal. They explore detailed evidence of the imminent acceleration of fossil fuel depletion and the limits of ‘sustainability’. They outline the political background to the situation, not just among the world’s largest consumers of fossil fuel, the US and China, but also in Europe and the developing world. Considering our future economic survival, they include a detailed examination of France and Australia. Finally, they explore the extreme costs of alternatives such as nuclear power, and outline other possible lifestyles and methods. |

Hybrid Energy Storage Systems $71.38 The nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries used in most hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) provide satisfactory performance but are quite expensive. In spite of their lower energy density, lead acid batteries are much more economical, but they are prone to sulfation in HEV applications. However, sulfation can be greatly reduced by a circuit that uses an ultracapacitor in conjunction with the battery. This research presents a new cost- effective method for using these two energy storage components together in order to extend the life of the battery. This system is presently quite expensive, but it will provide much cheaper energy storage if ultracapacitor prices can be reduced to the levels predicted by some manufacturers. This work studies two different methods for implementation on a hybrid electric vehicle and presents performance data for a variety of simulations. |

Because our diets are generally lacking in high-quality nutrients we often turn to sugar and caffeine for quick energy at the expense of the health and sustained energy we could obtain from true nutrients. When the body is well nourished a person is less likely to be depressed and more likely to have adequate energy levels. Energy28 was created to deliver supplemental natural energy from whole-food and natural sources. |

Cosmology, Ecology, and the Energy of God $13.99 This book brings together process and postmodern theologians to reflect on the crucial topic of energy, asking: What are some of the connections between energy and theology? How do ideas about humanity and divinity interrelate with how we live our lives? Its contributors address energy in at least three distinct ways. First, in terms of physics, the discovery of dark energy in 1998 uncovered a mysterious force that seems to be driving the expansion of the universe. Here cosmology converges with theological reflection about the nature and origin of the universe. Second, the social and ecological contexts of energy use and the current energy crisis have theological implications insofar as they are caught up with ultimate human meanings and values. Finally, in more traditional theological terms of divine spiritual energy, we can ask how human conceptions of energy relate to divine energy in terms of creative power. |

Historical Encyclopedia of Atomic Energy $9.62 From the Manhattan Project to Chernobyl, in war and in peace, this is the only encyclopedia to cover the development of atomic energy in the 20th century. More than 450 alphabetically organized entries trace the history of atomic energy from the discovery of the explosive potential of the atom to the development of atomic energy as a force for war and for peace and the issues raised by its use. The encyclopedia has been designed and written to meet the information needs of high school students and the general public. Entries include scientific processes, terms and concepts, nuclear accidents, atomic testing, protest movements, treaties and national and international organizations, nuclear programs and facilities in many countries and biographical profiles of scientists and government leaders responsible for the development and decisions regarding atomic energy. The encyclopedia provides the most current information available on these topics. Each entry concludes with a suggested reading. The encyclopedia includes a timeline of important events in the global development of atomic energy, more than 30 photos, and a selected general bibliography. The encyclopedia covers all five phases of the development of atomic energy: (1) the discovery of the atom’s potential and the mobilization of scientists for work on an atomic weapon; (2) the race to build a bomb, which resulted in the U.S. detonation of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki; (3) the period from 1945 to 1960, in which other powers developed nuclear weapons and the United States built a hydrogen bomb; (4) the period from 1960 to 1980, which saw the development of nuclear reactors for domestic energy and concluded with the ThreeMile Island accident; and (5) the period from 1980 to the present, which sees protest movements and serious examination of the issue of atomic energy as a public good. This definitive encyclopedia fills an important gap in information on this topic in the school and public library. |

Nuclear Power and Energy Security $135.85 World energy consumption has grown dramatically over the past few decades. This growth in energy demand will be driven by large increases in both economic growth and world population coupled with rising living standards in rapidly growing countries. The last years, we routinely hear about a "renaissance" of nuclear energy. The recognition that nuclear power is vital to global energy security in the 21st century has been growing for some time. "The more we look to the future, the more we can expect countries to be considering the potential benefits that expanding nuclear power has to offer for the global environment and for economic growth," IAEA Director General Mohamed ElBaradei said in advance of a gathering of 500 nuclear power experts assembled in Moscow for the "International Conference on Fifty Years of Nuclear Power – the Next Fifty Years." But such a renaissance is not a single-valued and sure thing. Legitimate four unresolved questions remain about high relative costs; perceived adverse safety, environmental, and health effects; potential security risks stemming from proliferation; and unresolved challenges in long-term management of nuclear wastes. Failure to answer these questions adequately could imperil the nuclear revival so many have proclaimed is night. This proceeding examines the status and future of nuclear power because of a belief that this technology is an important option for the regional and the world countries to meet the future energy needs without emitting carbon dioxide and other atmospheric pollutants. The objectives, addressed to government, industry, and academic leaders, discusses the interrelated technical, economic, environmental and political challenges facing a significant increase in the global nuclear power utilization over the next half century and what might be done to overcome those challenges. |

Renewable Energy in Power Systems $75.11 Renewable Energy (RE) sources differ from conventional sources in that, generally they cannot be scheduled, they are much smaller than conventional power stations and are often connected to the electricity distribution system rather than the transmission system. The integration of such time variable ‘distributed’ or ‘embedded’ sources into electricity networks requires special consideration. This new book addresses these special issues and covers the following: The characteristics of conventional and RE generators with particular reference to the variable nature of RE from wind, solar, small hydro and marine sources over time scales ranging from seconds to months The power balance and frequency stability in a network with increasing inputs from variable sources and the technical and economic implications of increased penetration from such sources with special reference to demand side management The conversion of energy into electricity from RE sources and the type and characteristics of generators used The requirement to condition the power from RE sources and the type and mode of operation of the power electronic converters used to interface such generators to the grid The flow of power over networks supplied from conventional plus RE sources with particular reference to voltage control and protection The economics and trading of ‘green’ electricity in national and international deregulated markets The expected developments in RE technology and the future shape of power systems where the penetration from RE sources is large and where substantial operational and control benefits will be derived from extensive use of power electronic interfaces and controllers The text is designed to be intelligible to readers who have little previous knowledge of electrical engineering. The more analytical electrical aspects are relegated to an Appendix for readers who wish to gain a more in depth understanding. The book’s flexible structure makes its accessible to the general engineer or scientists but also caters for readers with a non-scientific background. Economists, planners and environmental specialists will find parts of the book informative. |

Energise: A Future for Energy Innovation $4.78 A concise, authoritative, and confrontational challenge to the accepted "wisdoms" about the future of energy, complete with post-Obama victory notes""If the world could be more thoughtful about energy supply, we could all afford to be thoughtless about our personal use of energy."" At last, this cogent, widely researched analysis of the future of energy will enable readers to distinguish fact from fiction. Rather than disputing the nature and extent of climate change, this treatise analyzes humanity’s response to it; examining why we have so far failed to deliver an intelligent response to the problem, investigating the intellectual origins of humankind’s pessimism in the face of global warming, and exploring the global, political, and economic factors constraining the development of solutions. It also puts forward the question of what framework societies should be adopting to create a future where there is energy for all, not just the affluent West. Hugely controversial and challenging, this guide to the issues surrounding global warming will create a new level of discussion on the energy issue. |

Diagnostic and treatment techniques, such as manual muscle testing, nine gamut treatments, brain balancing procedure, cross-crawl exercises, and rapid stress reduction techniques are detailed in subsequent chapters. Blocks to treatment effectiveness (neurologic disorganization, psychological reversal, and energy toxins) are discussed, as well as how to deal with them. A test and treatment points catalog specifies by way of description and photographs the various test and treatment points. The reader is assisted in precisely locating the alarm or test points used to diagnose meridian imbalance, as well as preferred treatment points used to further evaluate and alleviate imbalance within the energy system. The book closes with a look at the future of energy psychology. Clear, straightforward, and comprehensive, Energy Diagnostic and Treatment Methods will serve as a foundation as well as an important reference on this unique approach to psychotherapy. |

The Energy Balance Diet: 5 $10.96 – The protein diet bubble is about to burst Studies are reporting every month why today’s most popular diets are so bad for you — New food groups high in plant nutrition and fiber give an original and easy way to control wild carbohydrate cravings. — Expert author and a writer with a proven track record will join with medical doctors and therapists for the review team. Blood sugar and insulin can be the key to high energy, weight loss and good health. And today, the most popular diets control blood sugar and create weight loss using high-protein, low carbohydrate regimens. Unfortunately, these diets are uniformly high in fat and low in fiber and plant nutrition, which means they maintain an uneven energy balance and increase your risk of heart disease, digestive disorders, cancer, and other serious illnesses.

Energy Storage: A New Approach $116.88 This book presents practical solutions to the problem of energy storage on a massive scale. This problem is especially difficult for renewable energy technologies, such as wind and solar power, that, currently, can only be utilized while the wind is blowing or while the sun is shining. If energy storage on a large scale were possible, this would solve many of our society’s problems. For example, power grids would not go down during peak usage. Power plants that run on natural gas, for example, would no longer burn natural gas during the off-hours, as what happens now. These are just two of society’s huge problems that could be solved with this new technology. This is a potentially revolutionary book, insofar as technical books can be "revolutionary." The technologies that are described have their roots in basic chemistry that engineers have been practicing for years, but this is all new material that could revolutionize the energy industry. Whether the power is generated from oil, natural gas, coal, solar, wind, or any of the other emerging sources, energy storage is something that the industry MUST learn and practice. With the world energy demand increasing, mostly due to the industrial growth in China and India, and with the West becoming increasingly more interested in fuel efficiency and "green" endeavors, energy storage is potentially a key technology in our energy future. |

Energy Efficiency Policies $7.31 The atmosphere is often regarded as a "free" element unlimited in supply and existing solely for our consumption. Yet the greenhouse effect and global warming trends have shown that the atmosphere must be treated as a valuable and finite resource. The need for active policies to promote its preservation is becoming ever more urgent. In "Energy Efficiency Policies," Victor Anderson makes a case for alternative policies which promote energy efficiency in response to the changing composition of the atmosphere and global warming. As the industrialized West consumes half the world’s energy, it is the focus of this book. Victor Anderson provides a thorough study of energy policies in the OECD. His argument centers on the need to end the greenhouse effect by making the transition from a carbon economy to one based upon renewable resources. He raises the question of the controversial progressive carbon tax, and provides case studies which include the low-cost attitude adopted by the United States and the United Kingdom’s attempt to promote energy efficiency. The book concludes with a summary of twenty possible efficiency policies. In an area that is dominated by highly specialized studies, "Energy Efficiency Policies" offers a practical, accessible, and topical guide to combatting the effects of global warming and preserving the earth’s atmosphere. |

Systems Modelling for Energy Policy $137.01 Energy is a sector where there has always been a serious modelling tradition, but with the worldwide trend away from planned economies to new market structures, the risk, uncertainties and competitive aspects which need to be incorporated pose new challenges to analyse strategic as well as economic behaviour. Systems Modelling for Energy Policy addresses the strong and apparently countervailing themes dominating energy policy in the current decade: * concerns about global warming have stimulated an intense and methodologically diverse level of analytical activity aimed ultimately at greater international co-ordination in policy and planning * simultaneously we are witnessing a worldwide trend away from planned national energy policies to new market structures To accommodate these shifts in focus, more comprehensive analytical procedures are needed to address technical challenges in handling large models whilst smaller, policy-specific behavioural models may give greater insight to the strategic challenges involved in maintaining focus on key industry restructuring issues for which past data is not available. This volume provides a comprehensive and up-to-date reference to the range of issues and modelling alternatives that a systems perspective gives to the analysis of energy policy. Practitioners, analysts and researchers will find new studies and comparative modelling insights in this book which are not easily accessed elsewhere. |

Geopathic Stress & Subtle Energy $18.94 If you suffer from tiredness, headaches, irritability, miscarriages, or chronic ill health that doesn’t respond to treatment, you may be suffering from geopathic stress. Geopathic comes from two Greek words: geo means ‘of the earth’, and pathos means ‘suffering’ or ‘disease’. The word ‘geopathic’ literally means suffering or disease of the earth. If you live and work above such an area, you are likely to have difficulty staying well, and if you get sick you will find it difficult to get well. This book looks at the theories about the causes of geopathic stress (electromagnetic, paranormal and subtle energy) and the different types of GS. It explains how GS can be detected, the various types of remedial action that can be taken and how individuals can protect themselves. This is a comprehensive look at this fascinating subject with many case studies from experts in this field. Read about the people who got better by getting their houses ‘fixed’. Understand how the author predicted on a TV programme that a man she had never met would suffer with leg or back problems, and that someone in the house probably had migraines. Read about the dog that suddenly stopped barking, the cows that were healthier and produced more milk, and the accident black spot that suddenly became safe. How did the author successfully meet the challenge to predict where people with headaches would be sitting in a lecture theatre, and how could she identify where the sick employees were sitting on three floors of an office block? You may start as a sceptic, but read this book and see what is really going on. |

Energy and the Making of Modern California $5.84 In Energy and the Making of Modern California, James C. Williams has written the definitive history of energy development and use in the Golden State. From the fuel wood that warmed its early settlers to the nuclear power plants that run the air-conditioners of its citizens today, California has shaped itself by tapping available energy resources, in the process coming to learn the capacity and constraints of technology as it affects the environment. Always a land apart, California has also become an early model for the United States and other countries in its voracious consumption of energy and its enlightened concern for the natural world. With its rich diversity of resources and its comfortable climate, California has attracted a steady stream of immigrants. As the population increased, so did its appetite for energy. A variety of resources—coal and oil, wind and solar heat, the fall of waters swollen by snowmelt— was harnessed to satisfy the growing needs of farmers and manufacturers and the ordinary inhabitants of small towns and sprawling cities. Technological progress in energy development was essential to the good life that drew people to California in the first place. But the exploitation of those natural resources also made many Californians more aware of their environment. Energy and the Making of Modern California illuminates the forces that formed the state’s culture and economy through the interplay of technology, population growth, human values, and the environment. With impeccable scholarship and a vivid abundance of detail, James C. Williams shows how California’s complex and versatile environment constantly challenged technological inventiveness, making the state’s experience with energy a rich case study that clarifies our rising concerns about how we live with the earth we live on. |

Nuclear Energy and the Environment $175.53 A renewed global interest in nuclear power is underway due to concerns about the contribution of combustion of fossil fuels to climate change and the unreliability of the supply of fossil fuels. Nuclear power is currently an important source of carbon-free, safe, and domestic energy in many countries. However, concerns about nuclear waste disposal and the proliferation of nuclear weapons have hindered its expanded use and continued development. As world demand for energy continues to rise, it is recognized that nuclear energy will be required to meet this demand in an environmentally sustainable manner. Responsible management of nuclear wastes, more efficient processes for conversion of uranium to energy, and effective and secure techniques for recycling used nuclear fuel are some of the key issues which must be addressed in order to develop sustainable nuclear energy technologies for the 21st century. This book is based on the papers presented at a recent and very successful symposium entitled Nuclear Energy and the Environment held at the 238th American Chemical Society (ACS) National Meeting in Washington, DC, August 16-20, 2009. The 3-day ACS symposium was well attended with participants from Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Sweden, Taiwan, and the USA discussing research ideas and progress in separation of actinides and fission products, green separation techniques, radiation effects, and repository chemistry. This book starts with an overview of challenges in actinide separation chemistry for advanced nuclear fuel cycles and roadmaps of new cleanup technologies by the U.S. Department of Energy. It is followed by 3 sections covering recent research and development in separations chemistry, radiation chemistry, and repository chemistry. The book documents reasons to be optimistic for the future of nuclear power and challenges facing nuclear scientists and engineers today. |

High Energy Cosmic Rays $157.79 Cosmic rays are an essential part of the universe. Their origin is related to many important astrophysical processes, such as star formation, stellar evolution, supernova explosions and the state of interstellar matter in the Galaxy. Cosmic Ray Physics reviews our present knowledge of cosmic rays, describing how they are born in a wide range of cosmic processes, how they are accelerated and how they interact with matter, magnetic fields and radiation during their journey across the Galaxy. The book also describes the detection of cosmic rays, and the processes which take place, both at the top and within the Eartha (TM)s atmosphere. The author also describes the very important area of the underground detection of very high energy cosmic rays and particles such as neutrinos. The book is divided into two parts, the first describing the standard model of cosmic rays and contemporary challenges, and the second part dealing with very high energy cosmic rays that cannot be detected directly in satellite and balloon experiments, and with gamma-ray and neutrino astronomy. It is in this particular aspect of the book that the greatest developments have taken place during the 5 years since the first edition was completed. Consequently, it is in the chapters cosmic ray showers, their spectrum, on high energy neutrinos, and on gamma-ray astronomy of this revised and updated 2nd edition that a considerable amount of new material has been incorporated with more minor revisions and updating taking place in the first part of the book. Students and lecturers of advanced undergraduate courses on cosmic rays and astroparticle physics as well as post graduates and researchers will continue to find this book a valuable source of learning and reference. |

Energy Keepers Energy Killers: The New Civil Rights Battle $3.95 Energy Keepers Energy Killers: The New Civil Right Battle exposes the wrongs done to the poor and minorities by environmental and political elites trying to eradicate fossil fuel production – coal, oil, and gas – supposedly to "save the world from global warming." Author Roy Innis, national chairman of the Congress of Racial Equality, shows how their wrongheaded policies price energy out of reach and violate the civil rights of all Americans, but hurt the poor and minorities worst. Innis demands an end to this "energy racism" and calls for the opening of all federal lands – which belong to the disadvantaged as much as to well-funded environmental leaders – to more energy production in a sustained campaign to increase supply and lower prices. Innis reveals the flaws in global warming hysteria and makes the stunning fact clear in his "Energy Reality" chart that so-called "alternative energy" from wind and solar power actually provided less than one-half of one percent of America’s energy needs in 2006. |

Energy for the Public: The Case for Increased Nuclear Fission Energy $4.5 The purpose of this book is to inform the public about its choices on energy issues and to help it make realistic decisions based on knowledge of science. Energy is the most prized commodity in our society. It is as basic to life as food and water. It generates the electricity that powers our homes, entertainment, businesses, and industrial plants. All transportation is dependent on energy that propels our cars, trains, airplanes, and ships. Every action–biological, mechanical, and electrical–requires energy. This book, therefore, has connections to every individual and object in the universe. The public faces difficult choices in the generation of electricity in the future. Carbon dioxide is polluting the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels. We face the issue of security for the United States and its citizens. During 2005 gasoline for vehicles skyrocketed to the highest price on record and we are importing more petroleum than ever before. Should California return to deregulation of electricity that was so disastrous in the winter of 2000-2001? This book reviews our options and makes recommendations for the energy to generate electricity and the fuels to transport people and goods. |

Wind Energy Comes of Age $11.44 Wind Energy Comes of Age is the most thorough assessment ever published of the technology, economics, and politics of generating electricity with wind. It provides an up-to-date status report on the modern wind industry worldwide. Written by Paul Gipe, one of America’s leading wind energy experts, this book chronicles wind energy’s remarkable progress from its rebirth during the 1970s through a troubled adolescence in California’s mountain passes in the 1980s to its maturation on the plains of northern Europe in the 1990s. Gipe argues in a readable and engaging style that wind is no longer an alternative source of energy. He cites improvements in the performance, reliability, and cost effectiveness of modern wind turbines to support his contention that wind energy has come of age as a commercial technology. Unlike other books on the subject, which focus on technology alone, Wind Energy Comes of Age critically examines a host of issues that will determine the future of this renewable resource, including: * Wind energy’s environmental benefits * The design of wind turbines "as if people matter" * Wind energy’s impact on people and the environment * Aesthetics and public acceptance * Wind energy’s potential * Centrally directed vs. market-oriented R & D * Wind energy’s role in electric utilities Wind Energy Comes of Age is extensively illustrated with more than 170 original line drawings, photographs, and charts. An annotated bibliography, tables of technical data, maps of wind resources, and a virtually exhaustive list of manufacturers, governmental agencies, and private organizations working with the wind further enhance the book’s value as a reference. Not since the classic works of Putnam in 1948 or Golding in 1955 has there been a book on wind energy of this scope. For those interested in the burgeoning wind energy field–engineers, researchers, environmentalists, policy specialists, and community leaders–Wind Energy Comes of Age is an essential resource. Written by Paul Gipe, one of America’s leading wind energy experts, Wind Energy Comes of Age is a comprehensive guide to the technology, economics, and politics of wind energy. Gipe has brought together information available nowhere else about American and European experience with wind energy. This landmark work is an indispensable reference source for engineers, researchers, environmentalists, planners, policy specialists, and community leaders who deal with this fast-growing field. "A pragmatism born of meticulous research and wide field experience has made Paul Gipe one of windpower’s most astute critics and most credible friends. He backs his exuberant chronicle with an insider’s knowledge of the difficult process by which wind power has finally become practical. This is one of the best accounts of the rise of a technology I’ve ever seen."–Jay Baldwin, Whole Earth Review "The wind energy field has waited a l |

Energy Methods in Dynamics $123.16 The above examples should make clear the necessity of understanding the mechanism of vibrations and waves in order to control them in an optimal way. However vibrations and waves are governed by differential equations which require, as a rule, rather complicated mathematical methods for their analysis. The aim of this textbook is to help students acquire both a good grasp of the first principles from which the governing equations can be derived, and the adequate mathematical methods for their solving. Its distinctive features, as seen from the title, lie in the systematic and intensive use of Hamilton’s variational principle and its generalizations for deriving the governing equations of conservative and dissipative mechanical systems, and also in providing the direct variational-asymptotic analysis, whenever available, of the energy and dissipation for the solution of these equations. It will be demonstrated that many well-known methods in dynamics like those of Lindstedt-Poincare, Bogoliubov-Mitropolsky, Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM), and Whitham are derivable from this variational-asymptotic analysis. This book grew up from the lectures given by the author in the last decade at the Ruhr University Bochum, Germany. Since vibrations and waves are constituents of various disciplines (physics, mechanics, electrical engineering etc.) and cannot be handled in a single textbook, I have restricted myself mainly to vibrations and waves of mechanical nature. The material of this book can be recommended for a one year course in higher dynamics for graduate students of mechanical and civil engineering. For this circle of readers, the emphasis is made on the "constructive" methods of solution and not on the rigorous mathematical proofs of convergence. As compensation, various numerical simulations of the exact and approximate solutions are provided which demonstrate vividly the validity of the used methods. To help students become more proficient, each chapter ends with exercises, of which some can be solved effectively by using "Mathematica." The most important feature which sets this book from others in dynamics is the systematic and intensive use of Hamilton’s variational principle and its generalizations for deriving the governing equations of conservative and dissipative mechanical systems, and also in providing the direct variational-asymptotic analysis, whenever available, of the energy and dissipation for the solution of these equations. It will be demonstrated that many well-known methods in dynamics like those of Lindstedt-Poincare, Bogoliubov-Mitropolsky, Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM), and Witham follow from this variational-asymptotic analysis.The most important feature which sets this book from others in dynamics is the systematic and intensive use of Hamilton’s variational principle and its generalizations for deriving the governing equations of conservative and dissipative mechanical systems, and also in providin |

More Than Meets the Eye $20.27 When people contemplate science, they often imagine people in white lab coats in a room surrounded by impressive apparatus, presenting ideas using esoteric math or an impressive sounding jargon. The hard objectivity of science is often stressed as the power of the scientific method. There is a hint of a methodological approach to the natural world, do the proper procedures in the proper sequence and the truth shall be revealed. This is sterile and cold view clashes with the experiences that have brought many scientists to their chosen vocation, one that often seems more like an avocation. What first attracts the eye and mind is the beauty of nature, the brilliant plumage of a bird, the patterning of a butterfly’s wing, the sweet smell of a cluster of lilac flowers, the sweeping flagella of a unicellular animal. This appreciation of the beauty of the natural world extends even to things as mundane as a grass, seemingly consisting of little more than green stalks but to some showing an attraction sufficient to offer pleasure by the simple act of lying down among them. The beautiful side of nature has even been expressed by the physicist Paul Dirac’s argument that mathematical formulae must be judged by their beauty. This is what we are trying to capture here, the beauty of the natural world that has drawn us into a commitment of time and energy that defies rational explanation. We didn’t make these decisions because of the money. We’re using two artistic devices to express the innate beauty of nature, the photos of Dan Brooks and poems of Jack Maze. |

More Canada Firsts $3.95 When "Canada Firsts" became a runaway bestseller, the proof was finally in: Canadians are not in fact shy about this country’s achievements at all This book is intended to further boost that growing self-confidence with a great new selection of Canadian inventions, innovations, and distinctions. It lists an extraordinary range of achievements, and no matter how well-informed you are about Canadian history, you will be astonished at some of the facts unearthed here. For example, Canadian inventors are responsible for the artificial heart, the television "V" chip, the Robertson square-head screwdriver, the pacemaker, and Java computer language. Our scientists were the first to discover light-activated drugs, the gene for familial Alzheimer’s, and RNA. Canada trained the first female jet-fighter pilots, was the first to celebrate Labour Day, and found a Law Society. And perhaps in celebration of some other national distinction, it was a Canadian who poured the world’s first Bloody Caesar And so the list continues, through chapters on Historical Achievements, Transportation, Energy and Communication, Medicine, Science, The Environment, Education and Social Welfare, and Food. This book is a wonderful salute to the surprising number and variety of Canadian firsts and foremosts – a tonic for anyone who needs reminding of Canada’s outstanding achievements. |

Utopia: Thomas More $4.95 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: cealed from view. He absorbs the whole mind of those who gain his intimacy. There is a glory about his ideas, as about the heads of the apostles, which appears to be brightly reflected from our own fancy as we read, and to transform us into something like his resemblance. We feel ourselves in presence of the beautiful; it descends around us like a shower, but a shower that warms and fructifies, and clothes even the most barren and stony places of the soul with verdure. Hence the power and the charm of Plato. He possesses art in perfection, but possesses along with it something which transcends all art, and operates like an eternal source ef energy upon whomsoever approaches him. These qualities, which characterize all his genuine remains, are nowhere more visible than in the " Republic," which, as I have already remarked, excited in Sir Thomas More the wish to frame in imitation of it an ideal state, perfect in laws and manners, and more adapted to the notions and wants of the age in which he lived. Properly to comprehend the modern work, therefore, it will be necessary to form something like a just conception of the ancient one, which has served as the antitype not merely of the Utopia, but of the " Panchaia" ofEuhemeros, the " City of the Sun" of Campanella, the " New Atlantis" of Lord Bacon, the " Gaudentio di Lucca," attributed to Bishop Berkeley, the " Oceana" of Harrington,’ and a host of similar productions less renowned. 1 Gcettling, Pref. ad. Aristot. Polit. p. xii attributes to Harris the Oceana of Harrington, which, therefore, he had never readIn his countryman Buhle’s " History of Modern Philosophy," t. iv. pp. 424?448, he might, however, have discovered not only the real author of the work, but a very full and able analysis of its contents.

No One Loved Gorillas More $28.07 "No One Loved Gorillas More" In the early hours of December 27, 1985, Diane Fossey was murdered in her cabin by an unknown attacker — "No One Loved Gorillas More" are the words inscribed on her gravestone. For 18 years, Dian had lived among the mountain gorillas of central Africa, dedicating all her energy to protecting them. Living in basic conditions at Karisoke, the research center she established below the steep ravines of a rain-shrouded volcano in Rwanda, Dian gradually became accepted by the apes she encountered and developed an extraordinary bond with them. Undeterred by the instability of the tribal and political wars raging around her, Dian struggled against poachers, Rwandan officials’ opposition, ill health, personal tragedy, and the isolation from the surroundings with indefatigable obstinacy and unstinting determination. She collected a vast amount of data and her work became the world’s primary focus for mountain gorilla conservation and research. She raised money to pay for anti-poaching measures, set up the first ranger patrols in Rwanda, and through the pages of "National Geographic" magazine and her book "Gorillas in the Mist," focused international attention on the plight of the great apes. Here, for the first time, Dian’s story is told through the letters she wrote to her friends and family, set in context by a compelling narrative. Sometimes scathing, sometimes self-pitying, frequently amusing and always fascinating, these previously unpublished letters provide a unique and intimate portrait and bring to life the rewards and setbacks of Dian’s years with the creatures who she called "the greatest of the great apes." These impressive yet shy animals arephotographed by Bob Campbell, who worked closely with Dian and captured many unique and extraordinary images. "No One Loved Gorillas More" is a powerful reminder of what Dian Fossey was fighting for. Her work not only led to a greater understanding of gorillas, but to a worldwide concern for their survival that still resonates 20 years after her death. |

Energy: Wind: The History of Wind Energy, Electricity Generation from the Wind, Types of Wind Turbines, Wind Energy Potential, $43.58 Since early recorded history, people have been harnessing the energy of the wind. In the United States in the late 19th century, settlers began using windmills to pump water for farms and ranches, and later, to generate electricity for homes and industry. Industrialism led to a gradual decline in the use of windmills. The steam engine replaced European water-pumping windmills, and in the 1930s, the Rural Electrification Administration’s programs brought inexpensive electric power to most rural areas in the US. However, industrialization also sparked the development of larger windmills, wind turbines, to generate electricity. After experiencing strong growth in the mid-1980s, the U.S. wind industry hit a plateau during the electricity restructuring period in the 1990s and then regained momentum in 1999. Industry growth has since responded positively to policy incentives. Although wind power currently provides only about 1% of U.S. electricity needs, it is growing more rapidly than any other energy source. Wind power has negligible fuel costs, but high capital costs. The estimated average cost per unit incorporates the cost of construction of the turbine and transmission facilities, borrowed funds, return to investors (including cost of risk), estimated annual production, and other components, averaged over the projected useful life of the equipment, which may be in excess of twenty years. Modern wind turbines fall into two basic groups: the horizontal-axis variety and the vertical-axis design. Utility-scale turbines range in size from 100 kilowatts to as large as several megawatts. Larger turbines are grouped together into wind farms which provide bulk power to the electrical grid. Single small turbines (below 100 kilowatts) are used for homes, telecommunications dishes, or water pumping. Small turbines are sometimes used in connection with diesel generators, batteries, and photovoltaic systems. These systems are called hybrid wind systems and are typically used in remote, off-grid locations where a connection to the utility grid is not available. A key challenge for wind energy is that electricity production depends on when winds blow rather than when consumers need power. Wind’s variability can create added expenses and complexity in balancing supply and demand on the grid. Recent studies imply that these integration costs do not become significant (5%-10% of wholesale prices) until wind turbines account for 15%-30% of the capacity in a given control area. Opposition to wind power arises for environmental, aesthetic, or aviation security reasons. New public-private partnerships have been established to address more comprehensively problems with avian (bird and bat) deaths resulting from wind farms. Some stakeholders oppose the construction of wind plants for visual reasons, especially in pristine or highly-valued areas. Wind technology has improved significantly over the past two decades, and wind energy has become increasingly |

A Smart Energy Policy: An Economist’s Rx for Balancing Cheap, Clean, and Secure Energy $38.99 While everyone wants energy that is clean, cheap, and secure, these goals often conflict: traditional fossil fuels tend to be cheaper than alternative fuels, but they are hardly clean or (in the case of oil) secure. This timely book provides an easy-to-understand explanation of the issues as well as sensible proposals for a truly sustainable energy policy. Economist James Griffin points out that current energy policies are fatally flawed and that government policies should focus on "getting the prices right" so that the prices of fossil fuels reflect their true costs to society–including greenhouse gas and security costs. By using carbon and security taxes, alternative energy forms will be able to compete on a more even playing field against fossil fuels. This will unleash advances in alternative energy and conservation technologies enabling the marketplace and consumers to find the right balance among energy sources that are cheap, clean, and secure. |

Crossing the Energy Divide: Moving from Fossil Fuel Dependence to a Clean-Energy Future $25.89 Praise for "Crossing the Energy Divide" "This book makes coherent and rigorous arguments that increasing energy efficiency is the primary driver of economic growth today and is key to managing climate change."Kandeh Yumkella, Director-General, United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) "It’s exciting to see some of the riddles of economic history solved. Energy efficiency may become the master key to future wealth "Ernst von Weizsacker, Dean, Bren School of Environmental Science and Management (ret), University of California, Santa Barbara "This important new book compels a significantly greater attention to the critical role of energy productivity in maintaining a robust economy."John A. "Skip" Laitner, Director, Economic and Social Analysis, American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) "Even if renewable energy sources can eventually sustain present living standards in industrialized countries, it will require decades for them to grow into that role. This book is by far the most realistic and helpful proposal I have seen for what can be done to cross the enormous energy gap between what we have and what we want."Dennis Meadows, Coauthor, Limits to Growth "This book is ‘mythbusters’ applied to the conventional wisdom that reducing greenhouse gas emissions will also reduce income. It should switch the debate from what it will cost to mitigate climate change to a search for policy changes to spur profitable efficiency investments in generation and use of energy services."Thomas R. Casten, Chair, Recycled Energy Development, LLC "Crossing the Energy Divide has appeared right when those of us in the energy sector need it most. Robert and Edward Ayres do an excellent job of explaining that every product and service has an energy component, and the cost of that component will determine our future quality of life."John K. Cool, P.E., C.P.E, President, PowerPlus Engineering, Inc. The Environmentally and Economically Smart Strategy for Solving the Global Energy Crisis–Starting Now If we continue our highly inefficient, dangerous energy usage, we’re headed for both economic and environmental catastrophe. However, the hard truth is that alternative fuels can’t fully replace fossil fuels for decades. What’s more, new research indicates that energy inefficiencies are retarding economic growth even more than most experts ever realized. Crossing the Energy Divide is about solving all these problems at once. The authors, two leading experts in energy and environmental economics, show how massive improvements in energy efficiency can bridge the global economy until clean renewables can fully replace fossil fuels. Robert and Edward Ayres demonstrate how we can radically reform the way we manage our existing energy systems to double the amount of "energy service" we get from every drop of fossil fuel we use. These techniques require no scientific |

Conflict Resolution of the Boruca Hydro-Energy Project: Renewable Energy Production in Costa Rica $46.39 Conflict Resolution of the Boruca Hydro-Energy Project is a case study that aims to profile best practices for sustainable development, indigenous human rights, and conflict resolution. In 2003, a joint project was developed between the United Nations University of Peace and the International Peace and Conflict Resolution program at Arcadia University to study the Boruca hydroelectrical conflict in Costa Rica. The aim was to bring together theory and practice and to reveal the link between peace and conflict resolution and sustainable development. Through partnerships with the Kan Tan Ecological Project and the indigenous communities in the region, and field studies to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and local Civil Society Organizations, faculty and students utilized the mediation framework to identify the needs and interests of the primary conflict stakeholders. Conflict Resolution of the Boruca Hydro-Energy Project represents the culmination of this fieldwork and tests the mediation framework as suitable model for the resolution of environmental conflicts in Latin America. The Boruca project, proposed in the 1970s by the state-run corporation Instituto Costarricense De Electridad (ICE), will build a dam in the Boruca Canyon, changing the flow of the Terraba River and creating an artificial lake of 25.000 hectares. The largest of its kind in Central America, this project will generate approximately 1,500 megawatts and increase Costa Rica’s energy production capability by as much as 50%. For ICE, not only will the project satisfy national electrical demand, it will also stimulate economic growth, assist in the development of new technological corridors and new tourism projects, increase employment opportunities, and improve the quality of life for indigenous peoples living in Boruca area. For the indigenous population, however, the project represents a violation of their fundamental human rights since it will force the relocation of 2,000 to 3,000 indigenous peoples, flood areas of archeological and cultural significance to them, and affect their livelihood due to the resulting changes in the biodiversity. They also fear the social and environmental impacts of more tourism in the area. The increasingly dysfunctional communication between the Boruca people and ICE over the past 30 years has led to a breakdown of trust and a stalling of the project’s development. Conflict Resolution of the Boruca Hydro-Energy Project follows these conflicts and the process by which the government-owned utility tried to find common ground between all stakeholders. Ultimately, it tests the mediation framework as an appropriate approach to the resolution of development conflicts, exploring the transferability of this approach to other countries in Latin America. This case study provides unique insights into Latin American environmental and development politics and will be of interest to any student, faculty, or policymaker looking to assess the mediation fra |

Energy-Aware System Design: Algorithms and Architectures $154.88 Power consumption becomes the most important design goal in a wide range of electronic systems. There are two driving forces towards this trend: continuing device scaling and ever increasing demand of higher computing power. First, device scaling continues to satisfy Moore’s law via a conventional way of scaling (More Moore) and a new way of exploiting the vertical integration (More than Moore). Second, mobile and IT convergence requires more computing power on the silicon chip than ever. Cell phones are now evolving towards mobile PC. PCs and data centers are becoming commodities in house and a must in industry. Both supply enabled by device scaling and demand triggered by the convergence trend realize more computation on chip (via multi-core, integration of diverse functionalities on mobile SoCs, etc.) and finally more power consumption incurring power-related issues and constraints. Energy-Aware System Design: Algorithms and Architectures provides state-of-the-art ideas for low power design methods from circuit, architecture to software level and offers design case studies in three fast growing areas of mobile storage, biomedical and security. Important topics and features: – Describes very recent advanced issues and methods for energy-aware design at each design level from circuit and architecture to algorithm level, and also covering important blocks including low power main memory subsystem and on-chip network at architecture level – Explains efficient power conversion and delivery which is becoming important as heterogeneous power sources are adopted for digital and non-digital parts – Investigates 3D die stacking emphasizing temperature awareness for better perspective on energy efficiency – Presents three practical energy-aware design case studies; novel storage device (e.g., solid state disk), biomedical electronics (e.g., cochlear and retina implants), and wireless surveillance camera systems. Researchers and engineers in the field of hardware and software design will find this book an excellent starting point to catch up with the state-of-the-art ideas of low power design. |

Energy Revolution: Policies for a Sustainable Future $4 The transformation from a carbon-based world economy to one based on high efficiency and renewables is a necessary step if human society is to achieve sustainability. But while scientists and researchers have made significant advances in energy efficiency and renewable technologies in recent years, consumers have yet to see dramatic changes in the marketplace–due in large part to government policies and programs that favor the use of fossil fuels."Energy Revolution" examines the policy options for mitigating or removing the entrenched advantages held by fossil fuels and speeding the transition to a more sustainable energy future, one based on improved efficiency and a shift to renewable sources such as solar, wind, and bioenergy. The book: examines today’s energy patterns and trends and their consequencesdescribes the barriers to a more sustainable energy future and how those barriers can be overcomeprovides ten case studies of integrated strategies that have been effective in different parts of the worldexamines international policies and institutions and recommends ways they could be improvedreviews global trends that suggest that the transition to renewables and increased efficiency is underway and is achievableEnergy policy represents a linchpin for achieving a broader transition to a more sustainable economy. "Energy Revolution" offers a unique focus on policies and programs, and on the lessons provided by recent experience. It represents a key statement of the available options for reforming energy policy that have proven to be successful, and is an essential work for policymakers, researchers, and anyone concerned with energy and sustainability issues. |

How did she get inside my head?” You will find explanations for things that you didn’t know you needed to have explained. You will read about Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACoAs) and codependency; if you’ve never heard of them before, you will come to understand what they have to do with you. And even if you do know what it means to be an ACoA and/or codependent, this book will offer some new perspectives on those issues.

It may have been because their parents didn’t meet their needs, so they didn’t know how to meet yours. One of your parents may have been an alcoholic or addict. (The term “addict” is used to describe more than just chemical addictions; it includes other addictions, including work, shopping, and food, among others.) There may have been a divorce, separation, or death. Or someone in your family may have had a chronic mental or physical illness. You’ll come to realize while reading “Me” Time that, while all of these situations are different, many of the results are the same. The book normalizes your experience and guides you through the process of working through the resulting issues. The author explores the reasons for a lack of balance and its relationship to the codependency, low self-esteem, perfectionism, and relationship problems that she sees every day in her psychotherapy practice. More importantly, she provides practical, easy to use techniques to turn ne |

Forgotten Roots – Electric Power, Profits, Democracy and a Profession $16 Forgotten Roots – Electric Power, Profits, Democracy & A Profession A new book by Jack Casazza raises questions of vital importance to today’s national energy problems. Can good technical policies be established in a democracy where “profits now” is the driving force? Want to understand the problem? A review of what happened in the electric power industry that provides the lifeblood of our national economic system sheds much light. What can be learned from those who built the world’s best power system that the National Academy of Engineering called the “the greatest technical achievement of the 20th century”? Want to know what they said?
