Solar (Paperback) $10.84 Michael Beard, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, find himself in a middle-age morass, his fifth marriage in shambles, his career stalled, his reputation ruined by an ill-advised comment about the chemistry of the female brain, and his paunch unmistakably moving down and out from his body. Unlikely as it seems, Beard might also be the only person who can save the planet–if his artificial photosynthesis can halt the inexorable march of global warming. Booker-winner Ian McEwan`s rollicking and hilarious SOLAR marks a drastic shift in tone from his previous few novels (ON CHESIL BEACH, SATURDAY, ATONEMENT). SOLAR`s protagonist is a wonderfully conceived mess of a human, half brilliant half buffoon, a man who continually makes pledges towards progress even as he slouches towards disaster–in short, Beard is a perfect representation of modern civilization`s great promises and pitfalls. Written with characteristic panache, and drawing in part on his own skirmishes with the media, McEwan`s SOLAR might be one of the most important and intelligent novels about climate change ever written–and is almost certainly the funniest.

Solar Thermal and Biomasses (Hardcover) $165.38 This book covers renewable energy sources. In particular, it reviews the state of the art in thermal solar techniques and biomasses.The first topic treated is solar radiation. Then the authors discuss the possible utilisation of solar energy through thermal solar techniques, starting with low-temperature techniques and moving on successively to medium- and high-temperature ones. This discussion includes, of course, expanations of those devices and materials employed in using those technologies. The last part of the book covers biomasses. Starting with the definition of this wide-ranging field, the authors successively treat how to obtain energy from biomasses and all the environmental aspects linked to this topic.Very few books treat so diffusely the state of the art in thermal solar technologies, especially in biomasses, a topic in which there is a bit of confusion due to the very wide range of related technologies.

Car Wash (DVD) $8.78 Director Michael Schultz follows up his critically acclaimed and commercially successful COOLEY HIGH with this hilarious day-in-the-life tale set in modern day Los Angeles. At Sully Boyar's car wash, a juvenile, motley crew of city dwellers work their fingers to the bone waiting on the eccentric and sometimes haughty clientele. Throughout the day, the young men find time to indulge in personal pursuits: one fellow fantasizes about the pretty waitress working at a local restaurant, a militant preaches politics, while more disgruntled workers find a way to justify their laziness. As the day wears on, the many levels of oppression that control each individual's lives gradually become apparent. Luckily, Schultz and screenwriter Joel Schumacher don't dwell on the potentially depressing aspects of their subject matter; proving that sometimes laughter is the best medicine, they stuff their film with enough verbal, visual, and situational humor to keep the audience laughing throughout. This can also be attributed to the performances by the all-star ensemble of performers, including Franklin Ajaye, Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Bill Duke, and Garrett Morris. Cementing the deal is the film's soundtrack, which features the soulful music of diva Rose Royce.Directors: Carl SchultzActors: Richard Pryor , Franklin Ajaye , George Carlin , Sully Boyar , Richard Brestoff , Irwin Corey , Ivan Dixon , Bill Duke , Antonio Fargas , Michael Fennell , Arthur French , Lorraine Gary , Darrow Igus , Leonard Jackson , DeWayne Jessie , Lauren Jones , Jack Kehoe , Henry Kingi , Melanie Mayron , Garrett MorrisFormat: DVDGenre: ComedyRating: PGUPC: 025192274725

Physics of the Solar Corona $109 Solar science has evolved rapidly over the past ten years as the results of a new generation of solar space missions have become available. This book provides a thorough introduction to the subject of solar physics, based on those spacecraft observations. The author introduces the solar corona, which has a temperature of several million degrees, and sets it in the context of basic plasma physics before moving on to discuss plasma instabilities and plasma heating processes. The latest results on coronal heating and radiation, which are fundamental processes in all stars, are presented. Spectacular phenomena such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections are described in detail, together with their potential effects on the Earth. The author draws together observations made at many wavelengths from hard X-rays, soft X-rays, extreme UV and radio wavelengths.This paperback study edition of Markus Aschwanden`s highly acclaimed Physics of the Solar Corona will include 50 pages of problems and solutions which will much enhance the value of the book to students.
