Kernels of Knowledge: Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life
Dreams cannot be created without thoughts, and thoughts are useless without dreams. Learn to channel the creative power of thoughts and dreams, and you change the course of your life. Kernels of Knowledge offers a roadmap for turning your thoughts into your dreams, transferring your dreams into your goals, and converting your goals into your action plan, which leads you to your reality. The journey is not a straight line as the evolution of your dreams is continuous and flexibility is required. We have it in us to succeed. Every thought we have shapes who we are and what we do. Knowing this, why not take control of your thoughts, using them to dream new dreams and transform you into the person you’re meant to be? It’s entirely in your hands—or more accurately—in your thoughts.
A Question of Power
An “informative and highly readable” (Foreign Affairs) breakdown of the history of electricity and the impact of global energy use on the world and the environment Global demand for power is doubling every two decades, but electricity remains one of the most difficult forms of energy to supply and do so reliably. Today, some three billion people live in places where per-capita electricity use is less than what's used by an average American refrigerator. How we close the colossal gap between the electricity rich and the electricity poor will determine our success in addressing issues like women's rights, inequality, and climate change. In A Question of Power, veteran journalist Robert Bryce tells the human story of electricity, the world's most important form of energy. Through onsite reporting from India, Iceland, Lebanon, Puerto Rico, New York, and Colorado, he shows how our cities, our money—our very lives—depend on reliable flows of electricity. He highlights the factors needed for successful electrification and explains why so many people are still stuck in the dark. With vivid writing and incisive analysis, he powerfully debunks the notion that our energy needs can be met solely with renewables and demonstrates why--if we are serious about addressing climate change--nuclear energy must play a much bigger role. Electricity has fueled a new epoch in the history of civilization. A Question of Power explains how that happened and what it means for our future.

Variable Generation, Flexible Demand looks at a future in which power system researchers, operators and analysts need to predict variable renewable generation and schedule demand to match it. Contributors survey the significant expansion in the role of flexible demand in balancing supply and demand in conjunction with flexible generation in 'peaking plants' and energy storage as the proportion of variable renewable generation rises in many systems across the world. Supported with case studies, the book examines practical ways that demand flexibility can play a constructive role as more systems move towards higher levels of renewable generation in their electricity mix. - Examines practical ways that demand flexibility can play a constructive role in future energy systems - Reviews the vital role of market design, business models, enabling technologies, policies and regulation in implementation of flexible demand - Includes detailed case studies that address the role of flexible demand across transitioning power markets
