Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an introduction to electrical calculations for students and engineers, building upon basic electrical principles to demonstrate how electrical quantities are interconnected. It offers practical guidance on calculating resistance, current, voltage, and power, deriving and applying Ohm's law to tackle real-world electrical problems. Through worked examples and questions, the book reinforces the theoretical concepts, helping readers develop their problem-solving skills. The author delves into electrical units, explaining their importance in expressing and measuring electrical quantities. The book also explores the relationship between resistance and temperature, emphasizing the significance of temperature effects in electrical engineering applications. By studying this book, readers will gain a strong grasp of electrical calculations, equipping them to analyze, design, and troubleshoot electrical systems effectively.

Trade paperback. PResumed first edition/first printing. [8], 378 p. Illustrations. Notes. Selected Bibliography. Index. This is from the Monterey Institute, Center for Nonproliferation Studies, Nuclear Threat Initiative. "The Four Faces of Nuclear Terrorism", a new book from the Center for Nonproliferation Studies, assesses the motivations and capabilities of terrorist organizations to acquire and use nuclear weapons, to fabricate and detonate crude nuclear explosives, to strike nuclear power plants and other nuclear facilities, and to build and employ radiological weapons or dirty bombs. The authors maintain that there is a greater likelihood today than any time in the past three decades that nuclear weapons will actually be used. This stark assessment is based upon two premises: 1) Non-state actors have emerged who seek nuclear weapons in order to use them and 2) Crude but real nuclear weapons, as distinct from radiological dispersal devices, are well within the technical reach of some terrorist organizations. The authors urge the United States and its international partners to take immediate steps to prevent the most catastrophic forms of nuclear terrorism and to reduce the consequences of the most likely nuclear terror attacks. Priority tasks include securing and reducing tactical nuclear weapons in Russia; securing, consolidating, and eliminating highly enriched uranium globally; and providing for secure storage and disposal of radioactive materials used in medicine, scientific research, and industry. The book also stresses the need to educate the public on the real risks of radiation exposure and radioactive contamination to help psychologically immunize citizens against fear of radiological attacks, which the authors conclude are all but inevitable in the coming years.

Trade paperback. Presumed first edition/first printing. Glued binding. [8], 378, [2] p. Illustrations. Selected Bibliography. Index. From Wikipedia: "Charles D. Ferguson is the President of FAS. Ferguson is a widely respected physicist and nuclear engineer." Nuclear terrorism denotes the detonation of a yield-producing nuclear bomb containing fissile material by terrorists. Some definitions of nuclear terrorism include the sabotage of a nuclear facility and/or the detonation of a radiological device, colloquially termed a dirty bomb." Very good. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Ohlde, Aubrie (Cover Design) (illustrator).…

Hardback. Condition: New. Bringing together an international team of scholars from various linguistic areas, theoretical viewpoints, and educational contexts, this book makes the case for strengthening the role of linguistics in second language (L2) teaching and learning. Seeing firsthand how the strengths and tools of the science of language contribute greatly to pedagogical effectiveness in the L2 classroom, the authors of each chapter lay out the strengths of linguistics for L2 teaching and learning with examples, case studies, research, anecdotal evidence, illustrations, and sample activities for the language classroom. The book argues as well for the place of L2 theory and data in linguistic inquiry and linguistics education. Bringing these disparate disciplines together around the shared reality of language itself has great promise of mutual benefit. Accessibly written with readers from both disciplines in mind, each chapter includes recommended readings and discussion questions intended to spark conversations across the disciplines.…
