Disorder and Superconductivity: a 21st-century update
Studying defects and imperfections in unconventional superconductors is paramount for fundamental and applied research. Defects play a multifaceted role, from decreasing quality and performance in some situations to enhancing desired properties in others, and as a useful probe and a tool to study the fundamental aspects of superconductivity. The examples are quantum decoherence in superconducting qubits, pinning and critical current in superconducting magnets, and in determining the symmetry of the order parameter, respectively. Studying defects and imperfections can provide insights into the underlying physics of unconventional superconductivity, shedding light on the mechanisms that govern the emergence of superconductivity in these materials, as well as the factors that limit their critical current densities and their stability at elevated temperatures and magnetic fields. Understanding the complex mechanisms through which defects influence the properties of superconductors is key to advancing the development and optimization of high performance superconducting materials for modern technologies.

Grand Designs
This is the first academic book to examine the long running hit series Grand Designs, which occupies a significant place in the popular imagination internationally. The authors apply an empirically grounded, critical perspective to the study of television to reveal how people use the program in their everyday lives. The emphasis on everyday uses and meanings combines creatively with understanding the program theoretically, textually and in terms of its production structures. This position challenges framings of the popular lifestyle and factual television genre that has been dominated by a neoliberal or governmentality perspective for many years. Presented by British designer and writer, Kev...
The Motorbike Book
Set your pulse racing with this stunning visual guide to over 1000 pin-up machines - iconic symbols of wanderlust, speed, and the open road. From Gottlieb Daimler's gas-powered "engine on a bicycle" which set fire to the seat on its first outing, to superbikes such as the Ducati 916, The Motorbike Book takes you on an enthralling tour of the bike's history. It shows you bikes that appeal to the head - practical forms of transport - and to the heart - a parade of classic pin-ups including cult machines such as the Honda RC30, the Triumph Bonneville and the Harley-Davidson XR750. The Motorbike Book shows the brilliance and impracticality of different designs and features detailed cross-sections of engines such as the air-cooled two-stroke. It explains how the great marques such as the Royal Enfield, the "legendary" Indian Scout, Vespa, and Norton all became household names. Whether you are a hardcore enthusiast, or looking forward to your first machine, this is one title you cannot be without.
