Download or read book Changing Energy written by John H. Perkins and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Changing Energy outlines how humanity came to its current energy economy through three previous energy transitions and now stands poised for a necessary fourth one. Despite the immense benefits conferred by a global energy economy based primarily on coal, oil, gas, and uranium, societies must now rebuild their energy economies to rely as much as possible on renewable energy used efficiently. This imperative to change comes from the risks of climate change plus the dangers of geopolitical tensions, health and environmental effects, and the long-term prospects for ever depleting sources of today’s energy sources. Changing Energy argues that sustainability of the benefits from energy services will come from investments made in the technologies of the fourth transition. Perkins envisions a viable post–fossil fuel energy economy and outlines the barriers that must be resolved to reach it.

Download or read book Bipolar for Psychotherapists and Their Clients written by C. Raymond Lake and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-06 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book is needed because it aims to improve the care of Bipolar clients while strengthening the clinical practices of non-MD psychotherapists. What is different is the proposal that psychotherapists manage the overall care of Bipolar clients. The increased number of publications about Bipolar over the past decades has enhanced the recognition of Bipolar. As many as 16 million individuals in the US may have a Bipolar episode at some point. Psychiatrists have traditionally managed Bipolar clients but there are not enough psychiatrists and they generally spend only 10 to 15 minutes every one to six months with their clients—often not enough time to recognize oncoming Bipolar episodes. Therapeutic strategy has changed from treating acute episodes to postponing next episodes. Psychotherapists see their clients for 50 minutes every week and are in a better position to recognize developing episodes. Psychotherapists do not prescribe and medicines are usually needed along with psychotherapy for best results. This book encourages psychotherapists to vet and collaborate with prescribers in caring for the therapists’ Bipolar clients. Lacking in the psychotherapists’ armamentarium for treating Bipolar clients is education regarding diagnostic signs, symptoms, and treatment including the most productive medications. This book provides therapists and clients the needed information and encourages academic departments and other psychotherapy programs to institute training about Bipolar Disorders.

This book was released on 2024-07-11 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With increasing apprehensions over global warming and environmental issues, the need to develop renewable energy is becoming more critical to secure our future energy needs. Solar energy is the most abundant source of energy and is easily accessible. However, making efficient use of solar energy is not an easy task. Energy materials, especially in their micro and nanoscale, have an excellent potential for absorbing, transferring and storing solar energy when they are dispersed in an aqueous medium. The increased surface area to volume ratio of energy materials at nanoscale exhibits extraordinary characteristics. Various applications relevant to heat transfer, energy conversion, and storage have increasingly used nanoparticles due to their ability to absorb, store, and carry heat. However, successful deployment of materials in energy harvesting and storage applications must also consider some of the very fundamental challenges, including but not limited to sedimentation, entrainment, stability, and life of these potential energy materials. Additionally, there are novel applications of newly developed specialized materials in solar energy capture, transport and storage. This topic is to circumscribe all challenges, innovative applications and numerical studies in materials for energy capture, transfer, and storage to have a safe future in terms of solar energy utilization.
