Hardback. Condizione: New. One cubic mile of oil (CMO) corresponds very closely to the world's current total annual consumption of crude oil. The world's total annual energy consumption - from all energy sources- is currently 3.0 CMO. By the middle of this century the world will need between 6 and 9 CMO of energy per year to provide for its citizens. Adequate energy is needed remove the scourge of poverty and provide food, clothing, and shelter for the people around the world, and more will be needed for measures to mitigate the potential effects of climate change such as building dikes and desalinating water. A Cubic Mile of Oil describes the various energy sources and how we use them, projects their future contributions, and delineates what it would take to develop them to annually produce a CMO from each of them. The requirement for additional energy in the future is so daunting that we will need to use all resources. We also examine how improved efficiency and conservation measures can reduce future demand substantially, and help distinguish approaches that make a significant impact as opposed to merely making us feel good.Use of CMO eliminates a multitude of units like tons of coal, gallons of oil, and cubic feet of gas; obviates the need for mind-numbing multipliers such as billions, trillions, and quadrillions; and replaces them with an easy-to-understand volumetric unit. It evokes a visceral response and allows experts, policy makers and the general public alike to form a mental picture of the magnitude of the challenge we face. In the absence of an appreciation of the scale of the problem, we risk squandering efforts and resources in pursuing options that will not meet tomorrow's global energy needs. We must make critical choices, and a common understandable language is essential for a sustained meaningful dialog.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of tactile perception and communication, exploring both fundamental research and practical applications. The author begins by tracing the history of tactile studies, from early experiments on touch to recent advances in neuroscience. The book then examines the various tactile stimuli, such as air jets and piezoelectric bimorphs, and discusses their effectiveness for different purposes. One of the most exciting applications of tactile communication is the development of devices that allow blind or deaf-blind people to access written information. The author describes several such devices and evaluates their performance. The book also explores the broader implications of tactile communication, such as its potential use in space exploration or for controlling machinery. Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the importance of understanding the human tactile system in order to develop effective tactile communication systems. This book is a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and anyone interested in the field of tactile perception and communication. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of the art and offers insights into future directions for research. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
