Energy Transitions: History, Requirements, Prospects
ISBN: 9780313381775 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Energy transitions are fundamental processes behind the evolution of human societies: they both drive and are driven by technical, economic, and social changes. In a bold and provocative argument, Energy Transitions: History, Requirements, Prospects describes the history of modern society's dependence on fossil fuels and the prospects for the transition to a nonfossil world. Vaclav Smil, who has published more on various aspects of energy than any working scientist, makes it clear that this transition will not be accomplished easily, and that it cannot be accomplished within the...

ISBN: 9780195168747 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The period between 1867 and 1914 remains the greatest watershed in human history since the emergence of settled agricultural societies: the time when an expansive civilization based on synergy of fuels, science, and technical innovation was born. At its beginnings in the 1870s were dynamite, the telephone, photographic film, and the first light bulbs. Its peak decade - the astonishing 1880s - brought electricity - generating plants, electric motors, steam turbines, the gramophone, cars, aluminum production, air-filled rubber tires, and prestressed concrete. And its post-1900 period saw the...

Vaclav Smil ist ein Zahlenkünstler. Er beschreibt unsere Welt in Zahlen und beleuchtet sie dadurch auf überraschende Weise neu. Smil berechnet, ob ein Auto oder ein Smartphone mehr Energie benötigt oder wie viele Menschen es brauchte, um die Pyramiden zu bauen. Das ist nicht nur unterhaltsam, sondern räumt auch mit manchen Irrtümern und falschen Vorstellungen darüber auf, wie unsere Welt wirklich funktioniert. Denn am Ende sind es die Zahlen, die uns den wahren Zustand der Welt... WAS VERBRAUCHT MEHR ENERGIE: EIN AUTO ODER EIN SMARTPHONE? UNSERE WELT MIT ZAHLEN VERSTEHEN

Transforming Twentieth Century C
ISBN: 9780195168754 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This inquiry into the technical advances that shaped the 20th century follows the evolutions of all the principal innovations introduced before 1913 (as detailed in the first volume) as well as the origins and elaborations of all fundamental 20th century advances. The history of the 20th century is rooted in amazing technical advances of 1871-1913, but the century differs so remarkably from the preceding 100 years because of several unprecedented combinations. The 20th century had followed on the path defined during the half century preceding the beginning of World War I, but it has traveled...

Consequently, before proceeding with detailed critical topical cov- erage of individual biomass energy sources, uses, and effects, I will extend this preface with a few pages of rather personal reflections (I will use the same device in closing the book: after providing concise topical summaries in Chapter 8, I will conclude with some essayistic musings on renewable energetics, plants, people, and a scientist's responsibility). Interest in biomass energies is just a part of a broader global trend toward renewable...
