The planet is also inhabited by an intelligent insect species and she and her clan are important go-betweens with the insect hives. She and her clan are caught in a vast conspiracy and she spends decades uncovering the plot. The main character, Raen, is a good character and the setting is great. Unfortunately, there's just not enough shown of what's going on, so every action of hers feels mysterious and murky and at the end, it doesn't feel resolved. There are a lot of thought provoking concepts here though. ( ) Romanzo discreto in cui si ritrovano alcuni dei temi cari alla Cherryh, anche lo "stile" direi che è ben riconoscibile pur essendo la trama abbastanza "originale" se si guarda il panorama globale dei sui romanzi. La storia scorre bene e si legge agevolmente senza quelle "pause" un po' noiose tipiche dei romanzi della Cherryh... anche se in ultima analisi siamo di fronte ad un lavoro poco + che modesto. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

From exoskeletons to neural implants, biomedical devices are no less than life-changing. Compact and constant power sources are necessary to keep these devices running efficiently. Edwar Romero's Powering Biomedical Devices reviews the background, current technologies, and possible future developments of these power sources, examining not only the types of biomedical power sources available (macro, mini, MEMS, and nano), but also what they power (such as prostheses, insulin pumps, and muscular and neural stimulators), and how they work (covering batteries, biofluids, kinetic and thermal energy, and telemetry). The book also looks at challenges such as energy generation efficiency, energy density, rectification, and energy storage and management. A final section on future trends rounds out the book. By briefly examining these key aspects, this book gives its readers a valuable overview of biomedical devices' power sources. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
