Radiophobia: Navigating the Fear of Radiation is a groundbreaking, insightful, and deeply human exploration of one of the modern worlds most misunderstood fears, the fear of radiation. From the haunting legacy of nuclear disasters to the quiet anxiety surrounding medical scans and everyday exposure, this book offers a compassionate, factual, and empowering journey through the roots, realities, and recovery from radiophobia. Radiation surrounds us every day, yet for many, the word alone triggers unease, anxiety, or outright dread. Born from historical events like Chernobyl and Fukushima, radiophobia has grown into a powerful cultural and psychological phenomenon, shaping how we think about technology, energy, health, and even the future. Radiophobia: Navigating the Fear of Radiation examines not only the science behind radiation but also the deep emotional and social currents that make this fear so persistent. Written in a warm, accessible, and thought, provoking style, this book helps readers understand the why behind their fear. It breaks down complex scientific concepts into simple, relatable language, showing what radiation truly is, how it behaves, and how humans interact with it safely every day. More importantly, it delves into the psychological, historical, and cultural forces that have amplified this fear, helping readers see radiophobia not as irrational, but as a human response shaped by misinformation, trauma, and the invisible nature of radiation itself. Inside, youll discover: The history and psychology behind radiophobia and how it evolved after major nuclear incidents. The difference between real radiation risks and perceived dangers. How media and pop culture have shaped public fear and misunderstanding. The emotional and behavioral symptoms of radiophobia, and how they can be managed. Evidence, based therapies and alternative approaches, including mindfulness, hypnosis, and support groups. Practical ways to educate children and communities about radiation without fear. How misinformation spreads, and how to build critical awareness and trust in science again. Each chapter blends scientific clarity with emotional intelligence, guiding readers from confusion to understanding, from fear to empowerment. Whether youre personally affected by radiophobia, curious about the human psychology of fear, or seeking to understand how society can move beyond nuclear anxiety, this book offers both knowledge and hope. Radiophobia: Navigating the Fear of Radiation is not just a scientific guide, its a reminder of humanitys ability to adapt, learn, and find balance between caution and curiosity. It invites you to look beyond the fear, embrace the truth, and see radiation not as a shadow of danger, but as a part of life that can be understood, respected, and even harnessed for good. Perfect for readers interested in psychology, health, environmental science, fear management, or radiation awareness, this book will help you uncover the truth about radiation, and free yourself from the invisible fear that surrounds it.

A importância do carvão mineral na matriz energética mundial e seus impactos ambientais têm sido tema de debate ao longo dos anos, sobretudo em um momento em que soluções mais sustentáveis estão send

Neste livro, os autores abordam de maneira um pouco diferente os cálculos químicos mais simples utilizados no dia a dia por profissionais diversos, bem como estudantes do Ensino Médio, de cursos técnicos e de cursos universitarios introdutorios. O destaque esta no fato de os calculos serem realizados pelo Metodo de Analise Dimensional, que ainda e pouco utilizado em nosso pais. Optou-se por esse metodo porque ele requer que, necessariamente, as diferentes grandezas sejam corretamente expressas. A correta operaço com grandezas ("Algebra de Grandezas") facilita o raciocinio e permite compreender melhor as etapas envolvidas em cada tipo de calculo. Alem disso, e na medida do possivel, so seguidas recomendaçes atualizadas da Unio Internacional de Quimica Pura e Aplicada (IUPAC), da Organizaço Internacional para Padronizaço (ISO) e do Sistema Internacional de Unidades (SI). Nesta 5 a ediço, o texto foi totalmente revisto para incorporar as recentes modificaçes do SI, inclusive na definiço do mol, a unidade de "quantidade de materia". Alem disso, adotou-se um novo modo de apresentaço desta grandeza, para deixar claro que ela e somente um artificio simplificador para se trabalhar com os numeros extremamente grandes de entidades (atomos ou moleculas) caracteristicos das amostras de substancias.Esta verso corrigida incorpora atualizaçes do autor realizadas neste ano de 2025
