Design in Nature: How the Constructal Law Governs Evolution in Biology, Physics, Technology, and Social Organizations
|
Why do riverbeds, blood vessels, and lightning bolts all look alike? In this groundbreaking book, Adrian Bejan takes the recurring patterns in nature and reveals how a single principle of physics, the Constructal Law, accounts for the evolution of these and all other designs in our world. Everything—from biological life to inanimate systems—generates shape and structure and evolves in a sequence of ever-improving designs in order to facilitate flow. Discover how the Constructal Law governs all natural design in terms of flow optimization. Design in Nature is a paradigm-shifting book that will fundamentally transform the way you look at the world.

Psyche's Veil: Psychotherapy, Fractals and Complexity
|
This book provides therapists with new language, models and metaphors to narrow the divide between theory and practice, while bridging the gap between psychology and the sciences. By applying contemporary perspectives of chaos theory, complexity theory and fractal geometry to clinical practice, the author discards traditional conceptions of health based on ideals of regularity, set points and normative statistics in favour of models that emphasize unique moments, variability, and irregularity. Psyche’s Veil further explores philosophical and spiritual implications of contemporary science for psychotherapy. Visit Amazon to purchase: Psyche's Veil: Psychotherapy, Fractals and Complexity
