Interdisciplinary Engineering Sciences
by Ashutosh Kumar Dubey, Amartya Mukhopadhyay, and Bikramjit Basu
Interdisciplinary Engineering Sciences introduces and emphasizes the importance of the interdisciplinary nature of education and research from a materials science perspective. This approach is aimed to promote understanding of the physical, chemical, biological and engineering aspects of any materials science problem. Contents are prepared to maintain the strong background of fundamental engineering disciplines while integrating them with the disciplines of natural science. It presents key conce...
Who is monitoring the huge amounts of junk now orbiting the Earth? What can we learn from predicting the "weather" in space? What is the commercial value of the universe? How old is it? Are wormholes the key to travel in time and space? This text describes the findings of Channel 4's "Equinox" programme and investigates further. This is an introduction to the subject of scientific exploration.

The Future of Work, Technology, and Basic Income (Routledge Research in Applied Ethics)
Technological advances in computerization and robotics threaten to eliminate countless jobs from the labor market in the near future. These advances have reignited the debate about universal basic income. The essays in this collection offer unique and compelling perspectives on the ever-changing nature of work and the plausibility of a universal basic income to address the elimination of jobs from the workforce. The essays address a number of topics related to these issues, including the prospec...
Academic Spin-Offs and Technology Transfer in Europe
While the US has traditionally been successful in commercialising new technologies, Europe is confronted with an increasing dependency upon fast developing technologies like biotechnology or ICT, despite having some of the best universities in the world. This book will explore the key attributes of commercialising academic knowledge, focusing on spin-offs. Bringing together the visions and best practices used by leading academics and professionals across Europe, Sven H. De Cleyn and Gunter Fest...
Water Resources and Economic Processes (Routledge Studies in Ecological Economics)
Water exploitation has increased notably in the world during the last 250 years since the onset of industrialisation. The relationships between economic processes and water use are complex and include many interwoven drivers such as: technological development, dietary choices and food production, climate change, demographic change, and policy reforms, among others. Ensuring food, water, and energy for the growing population remains a common global challenge. Taking on a multi- and inter-discipl...
The Challenges of Technology and Economic Catch-up in Emerging Economies
Innovation is a pivotal driving force behind economic growth. Technological capability deepens and diversifies industrial activity, which fundamentally enhances growth potential. Consequently, failure to build effective technological capability can lead to slow long-term economic growth. This book synthesizes and interprets existing knowledge on technology upgrading failures in order to better understand the challenges of technology upgrading in emerging economies. The objective is to bring toge...

This bold, contrarian view, backed up by exhaustive research, introduces our near-term future, where exponentially growing technologies and three other power...
Computer science graduates often find software engineering knowledge and skills are more in demand after they join the industry. However, given the lecture-based curriculum present in academia, it is not an easy undertaking to deliver industry-standard knowledge and skills in a software engineering classroom as such lectures hardly engage or convince students. Overcoming Challenges in Software Engineering Education: Delivering Non-Technical Knowledge and Skills combines recent advances and best...
