Synopsis
"The Scientific Endeavor" is an introduction to what science is and how it is done. Many college courses are good at presenting particular disciplines (Biology, Chemistry, etc.), but not the details of science itself. Science literacy for educated citizens and for professional scientists requires an understanding of science itself. Written at an introductory college level, this book provides on overview of what science is, the philosophy of science, how research is done, how scientists interact, ethics and misconduct, scientific thinking, and pseudoscience. It has been used as a supplementary textbook in introductory science classes, as the main text in classes about science, and as background reading to spark discussions in advanced undergraduate and graduate courses.

Paperback. Condition: Good. Handbook of Thermal Management Systems: e-Mobility and Other Energy Applications is a comprehensive reference on the thermal management of key renewable energy sources and other electronic components. With an emphasis on practical applications, the book addresses the thermal management systems of batteries, fuel cells, solar panels, electric motors, as well as a range of other electronic devices that are crucial for the development of sustainable transport systems. The opening chapter of the book provides a basic understanding of the thermodynamics behind the development of a thermal management system. This is followed by structured sections on Batteries, Fuel Cells, Solar Panels, and Other Electronics. Each section starts with a detailed description of the components in question, followed by the fundamentals of their thermal modelling. Dedicated chapters then systematically examine the heating, cooling, and phase changes of each system, supported by numerical analyses, simulations, and experimental data. These chapters include discussion of the latest technologies and methods, and practical guidance on their application in real-world system-level projects, as well as case studies from engineering systems that are currently in operation. Finally, next-generation technologies and methods are discussed and considered. Handbook of Thermal Management Systems: e-Mobility and Other Energy Applications>is an invaluable reference for students, researchers, and engineers working in the areas of energy storage, thermal management, and power engineering, and will also be of interest to electrical, electronic, and mechanical engineers working more broadly on sustainable transport and power systems in the automotive, aerospace, maritime, and power industries.
