An introduction to the principles of climate change science with an
emphasis on the empirical evidence for climate change and a warming
world. Additional readings are given at the end of each chapter. A
list of "Things to Know" opens each chapter. Chapters are arranged
so that the student is first introduced to the scientific
method(s), examples of the use of the scientific method from other
sciences drawn from the history of science with an emphasis on
climate science. Climate science is treated in each chapter based
on the premise of global warming. Chapter treatments on the
atmosphere. biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and anthroposphere
and their inter-relationships are given.

Central to Formal Methods is the so-called Correctness Theorem
which relates a specification to its correct Implementations. This
theorem is the goal of traditional program testing and, more
recently, of program verification (in which the theorem must be
proved). Proofs are difficult, though even with the use of powerful
theorem provers. This volume explains and illustrates an
alternative method, which allows the construction of (necessarily
correct) algorithms from a specification using algebraic
transformations and refinement techniques which prevent the
introduction of errors. Based on teaching material used extensively
at Loughborough University, John Cooke introduces the basics, using
simple examples and lots of detailed working (which can often be
re-used).
Constructing Correct Software will provide invaluable reading
for students and practitioners of Computer Science and Software
Engineering to whom correctness of software is of prime
importance.
All buildings in the UK must now adhere to the recently published
wind code BS 6399-2. The introduction of a new code is often
traumatic, especially so in this case,as the previous code has been
in place for 25 years.The authors considerable practical knowledge
of wind engineering, together with his involvement in drafting this
standard and his experience in conducting workshops on this subject
make him the ideal person to convey the strengths and weaknesses of
BS 6399-2 in this guide.Following recent amendments to BS
6399-2(2002) this popular guide has been revised.
One man's voyage through life It's the late 1960s - a decade of
Mods and Rockers; Beats and Hippies and full of peace and love.
Aged seventeen, John Cooke ventures out on the roads, hitch-hiking
around the UK. On the South Coast, he gets caught up with the
romance of the sea and foregoes his freedom when he signs away more
than nine years of his life by joining the Royal Navy. It is only
after signing on the dotted line that he realises he's made a
monumental mistake; and there is no legitimate way out. John
recounts his adventures as an adolescent who sails to the Far East;
visiting Cape Town, Singapore, Sydney and Perth along the way. His
voyage through the tempestuous sea of life was interspersed with
time spent in Military Corrective Training Centres as well as in
the Royal Navy Detention Quarters. But this epic journey is only
the beginning for John on his road to discovery...
