Materials for a Healthy, Ecological and Sustainable Built Environment

Principles for Evaluation

By: Emina K. Petrović,Brenda Vale,Maibritt Pedersen Zari

Principles for Evaluating Building Materials in Sustainable Construction: Healthy and Sustainable Materials for the Built Environment provides a comprehensive overview of the issues associated with the selection of materials for sustainable construction, proposing a holistic and integrated approach. The book evaluates the issues involved in choosing materials from an ecosystem services perspective, from the design stage to the impact of materials on the health of building users. The three main sections of the book discuss building materials in relation to ecosystem services, the implications of materials choice at the design stage, and the impact of materials on building users and their health. The final section focuses on specific case studies that illustrate the richness of solutions that existed before the rise of contemporary construction and that are consistent with a sustainable approach to creating built environments. These are followed by modern examples which apply some, if not all, of the principles discussed in the first three sections of the book. - Provides a holistic and integrated approach to the issues associated with the selection of materials for sustainable construction - Provides a thorough understanding of ecosystem services based on ecology research for built environment design - Provides an original review of the impact of materials on human health - Provides case studies to illustrate the points above

Looking and Listening

Conversations between Modern Art and Music

By: Brenda Lynne Leach

Looking and Listening: Conversations between Modern Art and Music invites the art and music lover to place these two realms of creative endeavor into an open dialog. Although the worlds of music and visual art often seem to take separate paths, they are usually parallel. Conductor and art connoisseur Brenda Leach takes unique pairings of well-known visual art works and musical compositions from the twentieth century to identify the shared sources of inspiration, as well as similarities in theme, style, and technique, to explore the historical and cultural influences on the great artists and composers in the twentieth century. Looking and Listening asks and answers: What does jazz have in common with paintings by Stuart Davis and Piet Mondrian? How did Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue affect the work of artist Arthur Dove? How did painter Georgia O’Keeffe and composer Aaron Copland capture the spirit of a youthful America entering the twentieth century? What did Kandinsky and Schoenberg share in their artistic visions? Leach takes readers on a whirlwind tour of the lives of these artists, surveying many of the key movements in the twentieth century by comparing representative works from the modern masters of the visual arts and music. Leach’s refreshing and innovation approach will interest those passionate about twentieth-century art and music and is ideal for any student or instructor, museum docent, or music programmer seeking to draw the lines of connection between these two art forms.

TimeWorm

By: Brenda Heller

Brenda Heller & Jimmy Adams 10605 A piercing scream stopped him in his tracks. By instinct he dropped to a squat. He caught his breath as he had ignored the flooding room and now felt the icy water press against his chest. The noise grew louder as it moved closer to where Theo squatted neck-deep in the frigid water. “Murphy!” Shards of the tile wall behind him flew in every direction as the bullet slammed into it, well above where Theo’s head had previously been. Seventeen-year-old Theo is caught up in a teenage world of driftboarding and HoloGames until his father’s friend and fellow scientist, Viktor Brack, destroys the laboratory, vowing to use a time machine to rewrite history. Trapped behind sealed doors, Theo promises himself to retrieve a book of secrets and prevent Brack’s evil plot. Theo and his robotic dog, Murphy, follow Brack over 100 years earlier to Nazi Germany. After his own escape from a pit of death, Theo is rescued until forces of evil and Hitler’s Youth attempt to kill him. He is found by sixteen-year-old Gracie, who understands the dangers of the streets. For both teens, the need to survive becomes a reality never touched by Theo’s false world of the HoloGame. Together, the teens take Murphy as they join an underground society, and begin a trek against the evil of Hitler’s regime. Dark alleys, tunnels, and creatures of repulsion force Theo and Gracie into a life-or-death fight to save both past and future. Jimmy Adams and Brenda Heller are teachers who met at the high school in Derby, Kansas. Jimmy lives in the city and was born in Pennsylvania. Brenda lives in the country and was born in Kansas. However, both enjoy running, the outdoors, and teaching teens. Each holds a degree in history, so when Jimmy had an idea to blend the truth of history with a flair of imagination, the series began. TimeWorm and the books to follow bring the events of yesterday as alive and daring as the moments in which they first occurred.

Designing for Safe Use

100 Principles for Making Products Safer

By: Michael Wiklund,Jonathan Kendler,Jon Tilliss,Cory Costantino,Kimmy Ansems,Valerie Ng,Ruben Post,Brenda van Geel,Rachel Aronchick,Alix Dorfman

How do you prevent a critical care nurse from accidentally delivering a morphine overdose to an ill patient? Or ensure that people don't insert their arm into a hydraulic mulcher? And what about enabling trapped airline passengers to escape safely in an emergency? Product designers and engineers face myriad such questions every day. Failure to answer them correctly can result in product designs that lead to injury or even death due to use error. Historically, designers and engineers have searched for answers by sifting through complicated safety standards or obscure industry guidance documents. Designing for Safe Use is the first comprehensive source of safety-focused design principles for product developers working in any industry. Inside you’ll find 100 principles that help ensure safe interactions with products as varied as baby strollers, stepladders, chainsaws, automobiles, apps, medication packaging, and even airliners. You’ll discover how protective features such as blade guards, roll bars, confirmation screens, antimicrobial coatings, and functional groupings can protect against a wide range of dangerous hazards, including sharp edges that can lacerate, top-heavy items that can roll over and crush, fumes that can poison, and small parts that can pose a choking hazard. Special book features include: Concise, illustrated descriptions of design principles Sample product designs that illustrate the book’s guidelines and exemplify best practices Literature references for readers interested in learning more about specific hazards and protective measures Statistics on the number of injuries that have arisen in the past due to causes that might be eliminated by applying the principles in the book Despite its serious subject matter, the book’s friendly tone, surprising anecdotes, bold visuals, and occasional attempts at dry humor will keep you interested in the art and science of making products safer. Whether you read the book cover-to-cover or jump around, the book’s relatable and practical approach will help you learn a lot about making products safe. Designing for Safe Use is a primer that will spark in readers a strong appreciation for the need to design safety into products. This reference is for designers, engineers, and students who seek a broad knowledge of safe design solutions. .

Building Harlequin's Moon

By: Larry Niven,Brenda Cooper

The first interstellar starship, John Glenn, fled a Solar System populated by rogue AIs and machine/human hybrids, threatened by too much nanotechnology, and rife with political dangers. The John Glenn's crew intended to terraform the nearly pristine planet Ymir, in hopes of creating a utopian society that would limit intelligent technology. But by some miscalculation they have landed in another solar system and must shape the gas giant planet Harlequin's moon, Selene, into a new, temporary home. Their only hope of ever reaching Ymir is to rebuild their store of antimatter by terraforming the moon. Gabriel, the head terraformer, must lead this nearly impossible task, with all the wrong materials: the wrong ships and tools, and too few resources. His primary tools are the uneducated and nearly-illiterate children of the original colonists, born and bred to build Harlequin's moon into an antimatter factory. Rachel Vanowen is one of these children. Basically a slave girl, she must do whatever the terraforming Council tells her. She knows that Council monitors her actions from a circling vessel above Selene's atmosphere, and is responsible for everything Rachel and her people know, as well as all the skills, food, and knowledge they have ever received. With no concept of the future and a life defined with duty, how will the children of Selene ever survive once the Council is through terraforming and have abandoned Selene for its ultimate goal of Ymir? At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Snuff Jars and Jelly Glasses

To the Mississippi Delta Born a Memoir

By: Brenda Haynes Brown

From her thought-provoking All of Mississippi, Aint Mississippi, Brown appears to be up to snuff in coming out and saying whats on her mind. Her adept knowledge of the South and its history lends her a crown of credibility for the literature of reality that says, She just could not have made this stuff up! Snuff Jars and Jelly Glasses, a rich blend of narrative, flows with contemplative musings, reflective poetry, and amusing memoirs. With twinkles of her Southern charm and unique depictions of her beloved Mississippi, Brown delivers a superb, inspirational read, cleverly interlaced with comedy, tragedy, drama, and history of actual journeys and encounters with family and the local pioneers of Mississippis historic Sunflower Plantation, a place she knows like no other. Brown unfolds her anecdotes with crackerjack humor, yet with outspoken affection, even admiration, for those of a more simple mindset who are forever spouting uncanny fonts of profound wisdom with childlike simplicityby simply stating the obvious. Penned from an intuitive over-the-shoulder glance, she enchantingly lures us with hysterical and poignant perceptions that apply to all humanity seeking love, community, friendship, and freedom. Brown incites us to think about the past as we are reminded, again and again, that the issues of our past are indelibly inscribed on our present. Snuff Jars and Jelly Glasses strives to anchor usas elapsing time draws us backward, toward homein simple collections that can be devoured in one sitting, or nibbled in bits to make it last a while.

Algal Cultures and Phytoplankton Ecology

Algal Cultures and Phytoplankton Ecology

By: Gordon Elliott Fogg,Brenda Thake

Phytoplankton--the passively floating or weakly swimming plant life found in bodies of water--is generally inconspicuous. It is of basic importance in lakes and seas, however, as the primary producer of the organic material on which other forms of aquatic life depend; and it is probable that its total photosynthetic output exceeds that of land vegetation. This book reviews the information gained from culture studies in the laboratory on the growth kinetics and metabolism of algae and considers to what extent this information is applicable to phytoplankton populations in nature. Dr. Fogg has laid a solid foundation for such future investigations in this precise, clear, and factual review, which admirably integrates laboratory and field data. His book will be valuable not only to limnologists and marine biologists but to many botanists and zoologists who do not consider themselves primarily limnologists. Judiciously chosen illustrations, including three full-color plates, add to the usefulness of the text.

Diary of an Alcoholic Housewife

By: Brenda Wilhelmson

A gripping first-hand story of personal triumph and recovery by a wealthy American housewife who appeared to have it all but who was, in reality, losing life's most important moments in an alcohol-induced haze. Brenda Wilhelmson was like a lot of women in her neighborhood. She had a husband and two children. She was educated and made a good living as a writer. She had a vibrant social life with a tight circle of friends. She could party until dawn and take her children to school the next day. From the outside, she appeared to have it all together. But, in truth, alcohol was slowly taking over, turning her world on its side. Waking up to another hangover, growing tired of embarrassing herself in front of friends and family, and feeling important moments slip away, Brenda made the most critical decision of her life: to get sober. She kept a diary of her first year (and beyond) in recovery, chronicling the struggles of finding a meeting she could look forward to, relating to her fellow alcoholics, and finding a sponsor with whom she connected. Along the way, she discovered the challenges and pleasures of living each day without alcohol, navigating a social circle where booze is a centerpiece, and dealing with her alcoholic father's terminal illness and denial. Brenda Wilhelmson's Diary of an Alcoholic Housewife offers insight, wisdom, and relevance for readers in recovery, as well as their loved ones, no matter how long they've been sober.

Heating with Wolves, Cooling with Cacti

Thermo-bio-architectural Framework (ThBA)

By: Negin Imani,Brenda Vale

This book describes the detailed process behind the development of a comprehensive thermo-bio-architectural framework (the ThBA). This framework systematically connects the thermal performance requirements of a building to relevant solutions found in the natural world. This is the first time that architecture has been connected to biology in this manner. The book provides an in-depth understanding of thermoregulatory strategies in animals and plants and links these to equivalent solutions in architectural design. The inclusion of this fundamental knowledge, along with the systematic process of accessing it, should open up new avenues for the generation of energy efficient and sustainable buildings.

Self-Regulation and Inquiry-Based Learning in the Primary Classroom

By: Brenda Jacobs

In this unique text, Dr. Brenda Jacobs brings together two important ideas that have become central to learning and development in education, demonstrating the core relationship between self-regulation and inquiry-based learning in primary classrooms. The author compellingly shows that inquiry-based learning can empower children and is vital to becoming self-regulated learners. Drawing on real-life classroom examples, the volume outlines four key insights: that children learn self-regulation during inquiry-based learning in the same way they do during play; that teachers can use scaffolding strategies to support this development; that inquiry-based learning promotes the positive emotions essential for the development of social and emotional learning; and, finally, that during inquiry-based learning, children use oral language as a self-regulatory tool. These insights are applied to the four components of emergent curriculum—inquiry design, classroom environment, conversation, and documentation—to show how educators can help children become self-regulated learners. Considering how COVID-19 has exacerbated children’s social, emotional, behavioural, physical, and mental health problems, this timely volume also provides guidance about how to do inquiry-based learning in virtual classrooms. Concise and practical, Self-Regulation and Inquiry-Based Learning in the Primary Classroom is an invaluable foundational text for students in Education and Early Childhood Education and for pre-service and in-service teachers alike.

Dragonflies at a Biogeographical Crossroads

The Odonata of Oklahoma and Complexities Beyond Its Borders

By: Brenda D. Smith,Michael A. Patten

This lavishly illustrated book examines the distribution, ecology, conservation status, and biogeography of 176 species of dragonflies in the southern plains of the United States, where twelve ecoregions converge. The topics discussed, such as phenotypic variation and ecology, are applicable and of interest across the United States and much of north America, and will appeal to researchers and dragonfly enthusiasts alike. A series of maps, including a distributional map by specific locality of occurrence, indicate level of documentation and allow the reader to visualize the biogeographical associations of a given species. These maps also encourage citizen scientists to contribute documentation wherever they spend time in the field. Context-driven chapters, including one on the region’s rich paleontological history, blend environmental history and biogeography, giving the book a fresh perspective on the natural world while providing a rich summary of the odonates. Dragonflies at a Biographical Crossroads: The Odonata of Oklahoma and Complexities Beyond Its Borders will be sought out by dragonfly researchers and enthusiasts, entomologists, amateur naturalists, paleontologists, conservation biologists, educators, regional historians, and those seeking to meld the disciplines of cultural and environmental history with biology. It will also be readily accessible to the lay public. Dragonflies combine the visually stunning with acrobatic fireworks in ways no other insect can hope to combine.
