SUMMARY:Power Up - An Engineer's Adventure into Sustainable Energy
DESCRIPTION:We rarely think about the energy systems that prop up our existence. With hot water\, lighting and digital entertainment all available at the flick of a switch\, it’s easy to underestimate the vast global network that makes these things possible. \nGrowing up in Iraq\, Yasmin Ali regularly experienced power cuts – ironic for a country rich in oil and sunshine. Now as an engineer working in energy\, Yasmin has a deep appreciation for what these resources mean for our lives. \nIn Power Up she takes us on a journey across the globe to reveal the bigger picture\, from solar panel farms shimmering in the desert to power stations hidden deep in the mountains. We discover where we get energy from\, how it is moved and used around the world – and why we need to understand the whole system if we want to transition towards a clean\, green future. \nPower Up is a definitive picture of the intricate world that humanity has built\, and a rallying cry to face the challenges of climate change using the power at our fingertips.

SUMMARY:Marcus Du Sautoy - Around The World in 80 Games
DESCRIPTION:Spanning millennia\, oceans and continents\, countries and cultures\, Around the World in 80 Games gleefully explores how mathematics and games have always been deeply intertwined. Marcus du Sautoy investigates how games provided the first opportunities for deep mathematical insight into the world\, how understanding maths can help us play games better\, and how both maths and games are integral to human psychology and culture. \nFor as long as there have been people\, there have been games\, and for nearly as long\, we have been exploring and discovering mathematics. A grand adventure\, Around the World in 80 Games teaches us not just how games are won\, but how they\, and the maths behind them\, shape who we are. \nAbout\nMarcus du Sautoy has been named by the Independent on Sunday as one of the UK’s leading scientists\, has written extensively for the Guardian\, The Times and the Daily Telegraph and has appeared on Radio 4 on numerous occasions. In 2008 he was appointed to Oxford University’s prestigious professorship as the Simonyi Chair for the Public Understanding of Science\, a post previously held by Richard Dawkins.
