Popular opinion has become so polarized that it should be no surprise that individuals find themselves increasingly alienated from others. As a result, an increasing number of people are wondering who they are and how they should relate to others. Discernment, however, can help us discover that the “other” really is nothing more than a construct. The Lost Art of Discernment promotes the importance of such things as humility, openness, compassion, and developing a healthy critical consciousness. The book also seeks to answer questions such as: What is reality in this day of “reality” shows and conspiracy theories? How has our compass for gauging the truth devolved so quickly? Why are we so reluctant to trust anyone outside of our tribe? The author also explores topics such as abortion, Black Lives Matter, political posturing, gun control, race baiting, and more. There is so much more than thinking outside the box: We must realize that the box needs to be discarded altogether as it is only a byproduct of smoke and mirrors. Explore biases, ask the right questions, and consider the arguments of others with this book that seeks to heal divisions.
Niven was planning a book about his experiences, but never completed it owing to ill health. The result of twenty years' research, Buried Cities, Forgotten Gods offers a well-illustrated and vivid first-hand account through Wicks and Harrison's selection of photographs and stories from Niven's own extensive writings and those of people with whom he worked."--BOOK JACKET.
Moisture analysis covers a variety of methods for measuring high levels of moisture, as well as trace amounts, in solids, liquids, or gases. There are many applications where trace moisture measurements are indispensable for manufacturing and for process quality assurance. Trace moisture in solids must be controlled for plastics, pharmaceuticals and heat treatment processes. Measurement applications in gases and liquids include, for example, drying processes, hydrocarbon processing, pure gases in the semiconductor industry, natural gas pipeline transport, the conditioning of food and other products. Written by experts with over 20 years of experience in the field, this one-stop guide covers all aspects of these measurements, including both the theory and a wealth of practical know-how. As such, it includes guidelines on installation, on the realization of standards for absolute and relative humidity, verification and traceability measurements, equipment calibration methods and the latest research developments. Backed by numerous case studies, this practical book serves the needs of those working in the industry tasked with performing or developing new techniques and processes for moisture and humidity measurement. As a result, the scientist or engineer has all the information required for accurate, reliable, economically viable and efficient moisture measurement.
