09. Planet Water
Planet Water: Investing in the World's Most Valuable Resource
Solving the world's water problems is proving to be one of the greatest
investment opportunities of our time. Already, world water supplies are
inadequate to meet demand, and the problem is going to get much worse
in the years ahead. The World Bank estimates that 1.1 billion people
lack access to safe drinking water and about 50 percent of the world's
hospital beds are populated by people who have contracted water-borne
diseases. If present consumption rates continue, in 25 years the world
will be using 90 percent of all available freshwater. To address the
problem, trillions of dollars will need to be invested in water
infrastructure projects. And while the problems are most acute in
developing and rapidly growing economies, there are huge water
infrastructure needs in industrialized countries, as well. In Planet Water, water
investment expert Steven Hoffmann explains the dynamics driving the
water crisis and identifies investment opportunities in various sectors
of the water industry. Hoffman provides investors with the knowledge
and insights they need to make informed investments in water utilities,
as well as companies providing water treatment services; infrastructure
services; water monitoring and analytics; and desalination services. In Planet Water, Hoffmann provides investors with
everything they need to profit from this fast-growing industry in the
years ahead.

04. Understanding Radar
Understanding Radar: The ABCs of How Radar Systems Work by Arnold E. Acker
This CD-ROM product is designed to give the user a basic understanding of the fundamentals and operation of the many applications of radar. It is intentionally limited in its mathematical explanations so as to be easily understood by non-engineers, including personnel who work in non-technical jobs who desire to understand the vocabulary of the radar industry. This would include people in customer service, sales and marketing support, executives, purchasing agents, and military personnel.
Using static pictures and animations with text explanations, the program can better explain graphically the radar techniques and fundamental concepts of application that might otherwise be difficult to grasp. A quiz provided for each lesson includes scoring and help links to test the reader's understanding and remedy any deficiencies. Radar continues to evolve in its usefulness and sophistications, particularly in the area of high-resolution imaging. Thus applications are increasing. Understanding of the underlying concepts and techniques will help individuals understand these emerging and current applications.
