    Series Statement: River Publishers Series in Renewable Energy
    Content: Throughout the world there is evidence of mounting interest in marine resources and new maritime industries to create jobs, economic growth and to help in the provision of energy and food security. Expanding populations, insecurity of traditional sources of supply and the effects of climate change add urgency to a perceived need to address and overcome the serious challenges of working in the maritime environment. Four promising areas of activity for ‘Blue Growth’ have been identified at European Union policy level including Aquaculture; Renewable Energy (offshore wind, wave and tide); Seabed Mining; and Blue Biotechnology. Work has started to raise the technological and investment readiness levels (TRLs and IRLs) of these prospective industries drawing on the experience of established maritime industries such as Offshore Oil and Gas; Shipping; Fisheries and Tourism. An accord has to be struck between policy makers and regulators on the one hand, anxious to direct research and business incentives in effective and efficient directions, and developers, investors and businesses on the other, anxious to reduce the risks of such potentially profitable but innovative investments.The EU H2020 MARIBE (Marine Investment for the Blue Economy) funded project was designed to identify the key technical and non-technical challenges facing maritime industries and to place them into the social and economic context of the coastal and ocean economy. MARIBE went on to examine with companies, real projects for the combination of marine industry sectors into multi-use platforms (MUPs). The purpose of this book is to publish the detailed analysis of each prospective and established maritime business sector. Sector experts working to a common template explain what these industries are, how they work, their prospects to create wealth and employment, and where they currently stand in terms of innovation, trends and their lifecycle. The book goes on to describe progress with the changing regulatory and planning regimes in the European Sea Basins including the Caribbean where there are significant European interests. The book includes:• Experienced chapter authors from a truly multidisciplinary team of sector specialisms• First extensive study to compare and contrast traditional Blue Economy with Blue Growth• Complementary to EU and National policies for multi-use of maritime space

    Series Statement: Earthscan Oceans
    Content: "Energy from wave and tidal power is a key component of current policies for renewable sources of energy. This book provides the first comprehensive exploration of legal, economic, and social issues related to the emerging ocean energy industry, in particular wave and tidal energy technologies. This industry is rapidly developing and considerable technical literature has developed around the technology. However it is shown that challenges relating to regulation and policy are major impediments to industry development, and these aspects have not previously been sufficiently highlighted and studied. The book informs policymakers, industry participants, and researchers of the key issues in this developing field. Ocean energy is considered in the context of the blue economy and an industrialising ocean, and topics covered include: development of policy (policy instruments, risk and delay in technology development); legal aspects (consenting processes, resource management, impact assessment); human interactions (conflicts, consultation, community benefits); and spatial planning of the marine environment. While offshore wind energy, sited in the oceans but not strictly derived from the ocean, is not the primary focus of the book, there is also discussion of the similarities and differences between offshore wind and wave and tidal power policy dimensions."--Provided by publisher

    Content: " A case for friendship as a radical practice of love, courage, and trust, and seven strategies that pave the way for profound social change.Grounded in the Buddha's teachings on spiritual friendship, Radical Friendship shares seven strategies to help us embody our deepest values in all of our relationships. Drawing on her experiences as a leading meditation teacher, as well as personal stories of growing up multiracial in a racist world, Kate Johnson brings a fresh take on time-honored wisdom to help us connect more authentically with ourselves, with our friends and family, and within our communities.The divides we experience within us and between us are not only a threat to our physical and emotional health8212 they are also the weapons and the outcomes of structural oppression. But through wise relationships, it is possible to transform the barriers created by societal injustice. Johnson leads us on a journey to becoming better friends by offering ways to show up for our own and each other's liberation at every stage of a relationship. Each chapter ends with a meditation or reflection practice to help readers cultivate vibrant, harmonious, revolutionary friendships. Radical Friendship offers a path of depth and hope and shows us the importance of working toward collective wellbeing, one relationship at a time."
    Content: Biographisches: "KATE JOHNSON teaches classes and retreats integrating Buddhist meditation, somatics, social justice, and creativity at leading meditation centers, universities and cultural institutions around the country. Kate also works as a culture change consultant, partnering with organizations to help them achieve greater diversity and sustainability. She's a graduate of Spirit Rock Meditation Center's four year teacher training, as well an utterly unprofessional dancer and performer who earned a BFA in Dance from The Alvin Ailey School/Fordham University and an MA in Performance Studies from NYU." Rezension(2): "Ruth King, author of Mindful of Race :In this fresh, brave, and liberative offering, Kate Johnson explores the strength of diversity and intimacy of community, prioritizing friendship as a healing practice and relationships as a path to collective freedom. Prepare to love yourself more and to appreciate conscious belonging." Rezension(3): "Larry Yang, author of Awakening Together: The Spiritual Practice of Inclusivity and Community : Radical Friendship connects the Buddhist teachings to universal human experience by unraveling the narrow bandwidth of white supremacy within Western interpreted and colonized dharma. A radical teacher that lifts veils of privilege, oppression, and fragility (greed, hatred, delusion), this book invites and allows the dharma to permeate into all of our diverse lives that matter." Rezension(4): "DaRa Williams:Radical Friendship has arrived on time! This book is relevant, on point, and apropos for the world we are living in today. Kate Johnson has provided a thought-provoking synthesis of Buddhist understanding and the politics of social justice, race, class, gender, ableism, and sexual orientation. She points to the many ways we might honor the spaces we occupy through identity without interpreting our differences as further proof that we are separate. She invites us to understand what freedom could be possible by applying this to relationship. Her perfectly chosen words and bigness of heart point us towards clear comprehension of what is possible if only we surrender and let go into the perfection of love--love for ourselves and love for others, buoyed by compassion, equanimity, and courage." Rezension(5): "〈a href=http://www.publishersweekly.com target=blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/pw_logo.png alt=Publisher's Weekly border=0 /〉〈/a〉: June 22, 2020 Meditation instructor Johnson ( Friendship as Freedom ) draws on her experiences as a multiracial person living in the Midwest as well as meditations on Buddhist concepts to offer insight into how friendships can help overcome differences. Johnson argues that intimate relationships are neither normal nor easy, and require a commitment to compassion and practices that promote pluralism. She suggests ways to strengthen friendships, such as contemplations on what counts as “wise speech” and ideas for confronting obstacles to one’s ability to truly listen. Johnson also provides practical advice on how to cultivate bonds that bridge divides over religion, race, sexuality, class, gender, or physical ability—such as revealing one’s views, disabilities, identities, and “ways we’ve been harmed” to others. She calls out implicit white privileges within what she identifies as a “culture of ownership and individualism that perpetuates economic injustice” and suggests practical solutions (such as “popular reparations” like community land grants) and using an empathic tone to simultaneously confront bias and cultivate kindness. Johnson’s simple principles for forming friendships will aid anyone wishing to disrupt their normal routine."

    Content: "This spooky season curl up with the perfect witchy romcom for fans of Gilmore Girls, Hocus Pocus and Charmed. An absolute must-read if you love Erin Sterling's The Ex Hex and Lana Harper's Payback's a Witch! It's just a bunch of hocus pocus... Essie Winterscale lives in a huge and ever-changing house in the village of Good Winter, in deepest, darkest Essex. She lives with various witches of various ages, one of whom is still a bit salty about being hanged in the 1700s, one who keeps accidentally casting fertility spells, and one who knits things that create the future. All Essie ever wanted was to have a normal life but in the end she found herself drawn back to Beldam House because she just can't stop her witchiness (although the ability to instantly chill wine is pretty awesome, even she has to admit). Into this coven of chaos stumbles gorgeous, clueless Josh, their new landlord – and he's just discovered his tenants haven't paid rent since the 1700s! As Josh is drawn further into the lives of the inhabitants of Beldam House, Essie is determined to keep him at broomstick's length. That is, until a family secret, lying hidden for centuries, puts Josh firmly under her spell... 'Funny, smart and sassy...No one creates such brilliant worlds quite like Kate does' Julie Caplin Readers have been bewitched by Hex Appeal: 'If I could rate this book 10 stars I totally would' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'SO much fun... a must read for spooky season' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Great characters, a wonderful setting and a story that will keep you engaged to the very end' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Genuine laugh-out-loud moments' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Charming... I loved the close-knit coven' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An amazing and fun ride... the story just sucked me in' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Fast-moving plot, sharp humour... compulsively readable' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'So much fun, definitely a good read for fall' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'I love all the witchy vibes' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Full of magic and cosy comfort... gripping and entertaining' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Enemies to lovers with magical and witchery powers' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
    Content: Biographisches: "Kate Johnson was born in the 1980s in Yorkshire and now lives in Essex, where she belongs to a small pride of cats. She has a second cousin who made the Guinness Book of Records for brewing the world's strongest beer and she also once ran over herself with a Segway scooter. Kate has worked in an airport, a lab and various shops, but much prefers writing because mornings are definitely not her best friend. In 2017 she won Paranormal Romantic Novel of the Year."
