Rischiamo quando pratichiamo professioni pericolose o sport estremi, quando decidiamo come investire i nostri soldi ma anche quando scegliamo quale università frequentare. Naturali o tecnologici, i rischi sono continuamente davanti a noi, ma non tutti li affrontano allo stesso modo: c'è chi è spinto a scalare cime irraggiungibili, chi è stregato dal gioco d'azzardo, e chi invece punta solo sui Bot. Gli autori del volume spiegano come funziona la mente di fronte al rischio e come - a causa di distorsioni cognitive che influenzano nella valutazione - si crede di poterlo controllare. E fanno capire perché, seppur con prudenza, talvolta si può e si deve rischiare.

In the late '60s and early '70s, many bands were making, or caught in, the transition between psychedelia and hard rock. This comp has 20 cuts from that mini-genre's heyday, most of them from quite obscure bands and releases, though a few actually made a modest commercial impact. Certainly SRC (represented by the "Up All Night" title track) are fairly well remembered and fairly well regarded, as to different extents are a few other acts here, like Damnation of Adam Blessing, the Litter, and Sir Lord Baltimore. Most of these fellas (and they certainly are all fellas, likely strutting their pretty macho-oriented stuff to a largely male audience as well) won't be familiar to many collectors, however, though some had connections to famous figures like Rick Derringer, Frijid Pink, Johnny Winter, Eddie Kramer, Shadow Morton, Mountain, and Frank Zappa.

The five volume set LNCS 10960 until 10964 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications, ICCSA 2018, held in Melbourne, Australia, in July 2018.

This book is the sixth volume of the proceedings of the 4th GeoShanghai International Conference that was held on May 27 - 30, 2018.

Far away shores, exotic islands or adventurous sea voyages - coasts are the destination of dreams for millions of people around the globe. Large numbers of people also call coasts their home; in many countries a narrow coastal strip is densely populated making these places vulnerable to marine natural hazards such as storms or tsunamis. The book Coastlines of the World with Google Earth aims to draw people's attention (within and outside of the science community) towards coastal sciences and spark interest for the extraordinary diversity and beauty of coastal environments.
