'An entertaining and compelling page turner that will stay with you.' Pete Goss The boat picks up another wave and surfs again, faster this time, deafening. My eyes are streaming, sore from the icy wind that throws spray in my face. And over the top of it all I can hear my own laughter. I feel powerful, strong. I am a thousand miles from land in one of the world's most dangerous environments. Alone and free. The Vendée Globe Race is one of the world's toughest sporting events: a single-handed, non-stop lap of the planet, with no assistance. The route takes competitors around the fringes of Antarctica, tackling terrifying conditions in the Southern Ocean before rounding Cape Horn. In My Element is the gripping and uncompromising story of Pip's incredible journey, but it's about so much more than sailing. A thousand miles from land and surviving on only 30 minutes of sleep at a time, with both skipper and vessel relentlessly pushed to the brink of failure, Pip tells it straight, acknowledging that success never comes without mistakes and mishaps and these challenges do not mean defeat; they are opportunities to learn and grow. This, her first book, is both a gripping record of one of her toughest races ever and an inspiring account of the mental and physical strategies that have allowed her to discover, as a middle-aged woman, a life that allows her to live 'in flow' and achieve success. From embracing fear to managing anxiety, enduring the daily grind whilst appreciating the pure magic, pacing yourself and rising to the occasion, Pip's journey teaches the importance of seizing every moment and truly living in your element.

**FREE SAMPLER** 'They make science fun and understandable which is a great combo.' Sandi Toksvig 'These nerds are the real deal.' Ben Goldacre, author of BAD SCIENCE Why is it impossible to spin your right foot clockwise while you draw a 6 with your right hand? Can you extract DNA from a strawberry daiquiri? Would you make love like a praying mantis? Should you book a holiday on Earth 2.0? The Element in the Room will take you on a rib-tickling, experiment-fuelled adventure to explain everyday science that is staring you in the face. If you are sci-curious, pi-curious or just the-end-is-nigh-curious then this is the book for you. Steve Mould and Helen Arney are two thirds of science comedy phenomenon Festival of the Spoken Nerd. As a trio they have appeared on QI, created their own experimental* comedy show 'Domestic Science' for Radio 4, toured their stand-up science shows to over 50,000 nerds (and non-nerds) and accumulated millions of views on YouTube. 'Made me go Hydrogen Argon, Hydrogen Argon, Hydrogen Argon.' Rufus Hound 'MIND BLOWN.' Tim Harford 'Science was never such hilarious explosive fun.' Richard Herring 'This book is 37% better than mine. But it took 100% more nerds to write it.' Matt Parker (the other third of Spoken Nerd)

A New York Times-bestselling breakthrough book about talent, passion, and achievement from the one of the world's leading thinkers on creativity and self-fulfillment. The Element is the point at which natural talent meets personal passion. When people arrive at the Element, they feel most themselves and most inspired and achieve at their highest levels. With a wry sense of humor, Ken Robinson looks at the conditions that enable us to find ourselves in the Element and those that stifle that possibility. Drawing on the stories of a wide range of people, including Paul McCartney, Matt Groening, Richard Branson, Arianna Huffington, and Bart Conner, he shows that age and occupation are no barrier and that this is the essential strategy for transforming education, business, and communities in the twenty-first century. Also available from Ken Robinson is Imagine If, a call to action that challenges and empowers us to reimagine our world and our systems for the better, through a compilation of Sir Ken's key messages and philosophies.

Luscuro is plagued by a mysterious illness. It seems to be incurable, and the elemental powers don’t help – quite the opposite! At the same time, Notio is preparing for the placement ceremony that decides where Dawn and the other second-year aspirants will serve their apprenticeship. Most are sent to their respective Sixter towns, but Dawn’s name lands in another, more dangerous location. Should she accept the Goddess’ decision? Or even worse: Should she oppose it? An enigmatic realm begins to open itself, while Queen Sora gains the support of an unimaginable ally ... The Element Plague is the second book in the series The Rift to Luscuro. On her journey, Dawn discovers not only friendship and love – but also enemies, a disastrous imbalance of power, and secrets much greater than any her hometown of Aalborg ever held.

“Keep it still.” Norell reaches out to hold it still, but she has barely released the locket before it starts swaying back and forth again. “It’s swinging towards Notio. It wants to go inside!” Reynir clenches his fists. “This is Wheedler magic.” The locket flickers as if it’s hidden behind a cloud of smoke. “Dark magic,” I gasp. “The necklace is enveloped in dark magic!” Notio is rife with uncertainty. The vengeful Wheedlers are waiting outside the town walls, Reynir’s survival depends on the life energy of a Sixter – and dark, unknown powers creep inside. The war that has ravaged the other Sixter towns is closing in, and in a letter, Akela sends a cryptic warning from the halls of Queen Sora. But what does it mean? Outside help is needed, and Dawn and her friends must walk straight into the arms of the enemy to get it. One thing is certain: if the war catches up with them, all of Luscuro will suffer devastating losses ... The Element War is the third book in the series The Rift to Luscuro. On her journey, Dawn discovers not only friendship and love, but also enemies, a disastrous imbalance of power, and secrets far greater than any her hometown of Aalborg ever held.

First published in 1988, the aim of this book can be stated in Nietzsche’s words: ‘To look at science from the perspective of the artist, but at art from that of life’. The title contests the notions that science alone can provide us with the most objective truth about the world, and that artistic endeavour can produce nothing more valuable than entertainment. O’Hear argues that art and the study of art are not indispensable aspects of human life, and that this is equally as important as the investigation of the natural world.

Paracelsus (1493-1541) stands at a crossroads associated with the Renaissance and Reformation. His cosmological-meteorological writings exemplify the turning point that concluded the older worldview and opened fresh avenues. His nature philosophy is inseparable from his medicine. This volume encompasses Paracelsus’s writings on cosmology and meteorology in the German original with facing-page translations. The reliable source texts have been treated with methods of critical edition. The source text and translation are accompanied by commentary elucidating their obscurity through the context of his full corpus while placing them in the context of the best secondary literature from his time to the present.

We live in a world where reality is being presented to us as fantasy, and fantasy and as a reality. This world is not what we have been told to be, and everything that we know of is fake fictional stories written by Artificial Intelligence computers on sets of algorithm instructions that tells it what to write. What we know of our world was not written by humans for the most part of it, but by machines, they only needed to put in a plot or parameters and the AI computers were writing up the stories guided by algorithms. In this book of 23 Chapters there are so many revealed secrets of the true nature of the world we live in and creation as a whole, scattered throughout all 90 pages of this book and because of that it should be read thoroughly. Starting from Chapter 1, this book explains the true origin of humanity and creation as a whole, who we really are, where did we come from, and how did we get here! Chapter 2 explains the true story of the Trojan War, and the real reason why humanity is in perpetual wars ever since the Great re-set about 200 years ago, and the takeover of our 4 continents by Satanic forces. Chapter 3 explains what the Dome is made of that we live Under, and when it was put in place. Chapter 4 explains the primary purpose of the Dome as a Macro cosmos, and its importance for the creation of humanity as Micro cosmos, as above – so below. Chapter 5 explains the true purpose of the Portal at North Pole known as Ruper Nigra, or Mount Mery, which I call Mother-mirror Portal. Chapter 6 explains how exactly water was made in the Underworld by the Portal machine I call Mother Portal. Chapter 7 explains how the Dome was made by the Father Portal machine which is placed under the ground in the centre of the world. Just a remainder here that the centre of the world is not at the North Pole, but somewhere else. Chapter 8 explains what exactly is Torus field dynamics that creates the Dome we live under, and how it works. Chapter 9 explains exactly what an Atom is, its true origin and function. Chapter 10 explains the origin of the Cross, how it came into existence, and its true purpose for human-kind creation. Chapter 11 explains the meaning of the Cross in the middle text of Rosetta Stone. Chapter 12 explains the real meaning of the Cross in the Bible referred to as ‘The Twin Flame’. Chapter 13 explains the true meaning of the words ‘Equator’, ‘North’ – ‘South’, ‘East’ – ‘West’, and ‘Horizon’. Chapter 14 explains exactly why Atmospheric Energy increases by 100 Volts going upwards into the sky. Chapter 15 explains the Intelligent design of Creation. Chapter 16 explains exactly how Stars were Born. Chapter 17 explains exactly who God is. Chapter 18 explains what the element of Fire is. Chapter 19 explains what the element of Air is. Chapter 20 explains what the element of Water is. Chapter 21 explains what the element of Earth is. Chapter 22 explains the true meaning of Saint Bartholomew. Chapter 23 explains all about hexagonal growth formation in nature as mathematical construct.

Fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) composite materials are basically of two types. The first type is short fibres reinforced in a plastic matrix, and the other type continuous (long) fibres reinforced in a plastic matrix. The exact distinction between a short and a continuous fibre is discussed in Chapter 1. Continuous fibre-reinforced composite materials are referred to by many labels: FRP composites, advanced composites, fibrous composites, composite materials or simply composites. These terms are now generally accepted to mean the same type of material, namely, continuous fibre reinforced in plastic. In this book, the term fibrous composites is used to define a continuous fibre reinforced in plastic. Fibrous composites are presently in use for a variety of structural applica tions, and may offer an alternative to conventional metallic materials. The behaviour of fibrous composites subjected to a loading condition is very different from that of a metallic isotropic material. Therefore, 'new' analytical and testing methods are required to analyse a structural element and sections made from layered fibrous composites. There are a number of books written on the subject of composite materials. All of these are excellent in their content and achieve the authors' objectives.

Finite element analysis (FEA) has become the dominant tool of analysis in many industrial fields of engineering, particularly in mechanical and aerospace engineering. This process requires significant computational work divided into several distinct phases. What Every Engineer Should Know About Computational Techniques of Finite Element Analysis offers a concise, self-contained treatment of FEA and all of the tools needed for efficient use and practical implementation. This book provides you with a walk-through of the process from the physical model to the computed solution. Based on the author's thirty years of practical experience in finite element analysis in the shipbuilding, aerospace, and automobile industries, it describes the transformation of the physical problem into a mathematical model, reduction of the model to a more efficient, numerically solvable form, and the solution of the problem using specific computational techniques. The author discusses time and frequency domain solutions as used in practice, as well as the representation of the computed results. What Every Engineer Should Know About Computational Techniques of Finite Element Analysis serves as a to-the-point guide to using or implementing FEA for both beginners and everyday users who must apply the finite element method to your daily work. The techniques can be easily executed in most available FEA software packages. CRC Press Authors Speak Louis Komzsik introduces you to two books that share a common mathematical foundation, the finite element analysis technique. Watch the video.
