However, all too often, society and the scientific community do not realize the connections between environmental occurrences. In their haste to remedy a situation, they overlook lessons that could be learned to prevent future disasters. Paying attention to the past instructs us about the future. Paradigms Lost combines the historical case perspective with credible and sound scientific explanations of key environmental disasters and problems. The author sorts through natural disasters and human mistakes from Love Canal, New York to Bhopal, India to provide larger lessons that can be applied by scientists, engineers and public safety officials. The analysis of these events includes viable alternatives for future generations. * Includes alternative approaches to environmental issues from preventative measures to contingency plans * Richly annotated with sidebars, discussion boxes and generous examples from Exxon Valdez and Love Canal to Agent Orange and Bhopal * A usable tool for all professionals from lawyers to chemical engineers 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aEnvironmental education$xHistory 650 0$aCumulative effects assessment (Environmental assessment) 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750678887$z9780750678889$w(DLC) 2005024537$w(OCoLC)61456533 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750678889$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 856 41$zTable of contents only$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0518/2005024537.html 856 42$zPublisher description$uhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0623/2005024537-d.html 907 $a.b13650567$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003219649707536 996 $aParadigms lost$91213447 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gmau$h0$i0 LEADER 01574oam 2200433 450 001 9910704967603321 005 20170207083348.0 035 $a(CKB)5470000002446068 035 $a(OCoLC)971541974 035 $a(OCoLC)995470000002446068 035 $a(EXLCZ)995470000002446068 100 $a20170207j201305 ua 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aInfrastructure, components and system level testing and analysis of electric vehicles $ecooperative research and development final report 210 1$aGolden, CO :$cNational Renewable Energy Laboratory,$dMay 2013. 215 $a1 online resource (2 pages) 225 1 $aCRADA report 225 1 $aNREL/TP ;$v7A10-58030 300 $a"May 2013." 300 $a"CRADA Number: CRD-09-353." 517 $aInfrastructure, components and system level testing and analysis of electric vehicles 606 $aElectric vehicles$xBatteries$xTesting 606 $aElectric vehicles$xTesting 606 $aElectric vehicles$xDesign and construction 615 0$aElectric vehicles$xBatteries$xTesting. 615 0$aElectric vehicles$xTesting. 615 0$aElectric vehicles$xDesign and construction. 712 02$aNational Renewable Energy Laboratory (U.S.), 801 0$bGPO 801 1$bGPO 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910704967603321 996 $aInfrastructure, components and system level testing and analysis of electric vehicles$93522151 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00682nam 2200241 450 001 9910844499803321 005 20240415113003.0 010 $a9781788730068 100 $a20240415d2023----u y0engy50 ba 101 0 $aeng 102 $aGB 105 0 $a 00 200 1 $a<>eye of the master$ea social history of artificial intelligence$fMatteo Pasquinelli 210 $aLondon$cVerso$d2023 215 $a264 p.$d24 cm 610 0 $aIntelligenza artificiale 676 $a006.3$v22$zita 700 1$aPasquinelli,$bMatteo$0451021 912 $a9910844499803321 952 $a006.3 PAS 1$b11572$fbfs 959 $aBFS 996 $aEye of the master$94151335 997 $aUNINA
