Few subjects are more fundamental to modern life than electrical power. The systems that generate, transport, and distribute electricity are among the most essential contributors to modern industry, development, and everyday living. As energy demand grows and, with it, the electric power industry, more and more non-electrical professionals must make important policy and administrative decisions regarding the systems that power our world.

After years of prosecuting hard-core criminals, rising legal star Alan Bell took a private sector job in South Florida's newest skyscraper. Suddenly, he suffered such bizarre medical symptoms, doctors suspected he'd been poisoned by the Mafia. Bell's rapidly declining health forced him to flee his glamorous Miami life to a sterile "bubble" in the remote Arizona desert.

The detrimental effects of traffic loading and environmental factors degrade all pavements. The deterioration manifests in a variety of ways (such as cracking, rutting, raveling, spalling), that reduce the structural integrity and functional quality of the pavement. Loss of structural integrity translates into a loss of load-carrying capacity. Loss of functional quality (increased roughness, decreased friction and surface drainage, foreign object damage (FOD) potential) compromises safety and reduces comfort of operation. Although the manner and speed with which pavements deteriorate ...

Described as the "ultimate engineer" during his career at NASA, George M. Low was a visionary architect and leader from the agency's inception in 1958 to his retirement in 1976. As chief of manned spaceflight at NASA, Low was instrumental in the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs. Low's pioneering work paved the way for President Kennedy's decision to make a lunar landing NASA's primary goal in the 1960s.
